Just curious, instead of going to all that trouble, why wouldn't something like Foxit be simpler and easier with similar results?

"simulations of the human brain accurate down to the individual neuron could easily achieve this"

aye, there's the rub

Good enough for me. You just sound so authoritative that I don't need any citations...

If I'm an American citizen and America's military wins a war, am I allowed to be proud of that even though I "didn't leave a drop of blood or sweat on the field [of battle]? Sheesh, get off your high horse.

Agreed. First we push the technology forward, and only after that should we provide handouts to mule breeders.

You're right, we should let babies make more decisions about their lives...

I guess it depends on who you believe.

from http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/circumcision/PR00040:

• Decreased risk of urinary tract infections. The risk of urinary tract infections in the first year is low, but these infections may be up to 10 times as common in uncircumcised baby boys. Severe infections early in life can lead to kidney problems later on.
• Prevention of penile problems. Occasionally, the foreskin on an uncircumcised penis may be difficult or impossible to retract (phimosis). This can also lead to inflammation of the head of the penis.
• Decreased risk of penile cancer. Although cancer of the penis is rare, it's less common in circumcised men.
• Decreased risk of sexually transmitted diseases. Safe sexual practices remain essential, but circumcised men may have a slightly lower risk of certain sexually transmitted diseases — including HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

let me be the first to say... what the hell are you talking about?

So you're saying I should not have posted my SSN in my lastest facebook update?

The keyboard looks like it might be this Adesso model: http://www.amazon.com/Adesso-Wireless-Keyboard-Optical-Trackball/dp/B000JJM7S0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1249910929&sr=8-1 If so, my experience with it is that it is crap. Every time I woke the PC up from a sleep state, I had to re-sync the keyboard with the USB dongle. Typing sporadically dropped keystrokes, and the trackball was jittery. Overall it felt very cheaply made. Just my two cents.

Unless, like me, you use the mouse with your left hand...

I think it is "suspension of disbelief".

can we retire the "fixed that for you" meme already? to me, it smacks of arrogance
