For the same reason that drive-through ATMs have braille on the buttons.

Dave,

While we all respect your views, this isn't "Ask the Docmaster," this is "Ask the Council," and as such, you are barred from poaching questions.

But now that you've started it, you must continue. What does the male-nippple-ATM-braille actually say?

"oh, that tickles!"

Re: Ask the Council!
 

Oh man. Now t.m.o. moderators think they can answer questions in this thread. Since you're a moderator, Flandry, could you just change the name of this thread to something like, "Ask the Council and get answered by some random person!"

It may come as no surprise that they only gave me dominion over Games and Off-topic and such. ;)

Re: Ask the Council!
 

Oooh - excuse *me*.

Basically, the marginal benefit is outweighed by the marginal cost.

ATM & braille: the cost of making a special production kit for drive-through ATMs without the braille keys would outweigh the benefit (which is basically zero) of not having them on there.

Men & nipples: The increased complication in the human reproductive system evolving in such a way as the males didn't have nipples and the females did outweighs any evolutionary advantage that mutation would have - thus, in the unlikely event that some combination of genetic mutations produced a nippleless male, he wouldn't have any significant evolutionary advantage & would in fact be a bit weird & unattractive - and so if every there was a nippleless man, he died an old maid with no offspring.

People, and evolutionary mutations, respond to incentives. Basic econ 101 ;)

Cheers,
Dave.

That's better. While expanding on your original answer, you didn't answer my question, thus respecting the thread's title.

Moderator, please change thread title to Qole Rules.

Dear council members,

I think time for words is well past behind us and it is now time for actions. I would like to know if you intend to take any step following the discussion in the tread entitled : "Cleaning N900 FUD" ?

Merci beaucoup
Thank you very much
Grazie mille
