Because of the chilllddrreeeennnn.
If they were to show Brandy Chastain in her sports bra, scoring a goal and then getting blown up by a landmine, it would be, well, network television. They should have a extended trauma room scene afterwards too.
Yeah, that link is pretty nasty. If you don't have admin rights and are running IE on Win2k, it goes straight to a "Download Aborted -- You must click YES." dialogue window loop. What gives? Bastards. Now I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL out of explorer.
Sadly, I have no idea how long it takes for plastic water bottles to go bad. It depends on storage conditions... I've seen sealed bottles in cool dark crawlspaces stay fresh for months. I've also seen bottles go bad after a week (moral is don't carry water bottles in your backpack for too long).
As for lamp oil... doesn't lamp oil tend to come in large plastic bottles these days? Not what I'd want to convert into a lamp. Cruddy bottles deform in hot water, for crying out loud.
Don't forget that those plastic pop bottles decay over time, so you have to do a lot of cycling. Either that or use glass bottles/jars.
While I'm all for a paper trail (why don't Americans just use pencil and paper ballots, then hand count?), I personally think that exit polls were a bad idea right from the get-go. The 2000 election simply emphasized that. They provided lots of empty, speculative discussion on election day/night, I suppose, but really, it was terribly pointless, some might even say dangerous.
If they are going to do exit polls, the least they could do is not disclose the results of those polls until the election is over in Hawaii. But if computerized voting machines can be tampered with, then so can an exit poll done in this manner... which would make them useless, anyway.
So they should scrap exit polls and go back to using pencil and paper hand-counted ballots. Just a simple check-box beside your candidate. Let the ballots be the exit poll. How radical is that?

Just to be nitpicky, that joexxx message was not compressed nor was any information lost. Although I think it would have been better if you'd also done a one-for-one substitution of the letters and provided a nice little clue somewhere.
