Comment Re:Yeah, real big secret (Score 1) 550

Poor Eleanor Clift I bet she was sure she was winning a Pulitzer prize for that news story! Big deal, everyone knows where Fort Knox is, it doesn't make it any less secure. Anybody knows where all the oil refineries are, taking a refinery out is more of a threat then offing a political leader. (just look at Iraq)

Who do people think these politicians are that we couldn't survive without them? Bah!

Comment Despite all the technicalities (Score 1) 837

I would have loved to have a boss who was willing to spend $300 on something as simple as a very long network cable. That might mean he actually approves of spending real money for real equipment rather then beating up the tech department to spec out the cheapest equipment that will get the job done. He might actually be reasonable when it comes to proposals for new equipment and not always ask you why it's needed, because he knows the faster the equipment the more work that can be done.

I'd love to have a boss like that, he probably likes to pick up the tab at the bar too.

Another thing, I got some serious wind burn from all the propeller heads spinning their propellers at top speed.

Comment Irony is not lost on the Feds (Score 1) 590

It would be one thing if the G'n'R tracks from Chinese Democracy were awesome, and the best they've ever put out.

That's far from the case, it's the worst G'n'R I've ever heard.

I find it ironic that the Feds who really have bigger fish to fry want to make such a lame example of this poor kid. I think instead they should arrest Axel and put him in prison for 6 months for even wasting our time.

Shouldn't the Feds be out there doing something useful like finding Elvis, Jim Morrison, even a Sasquatch or space alien?

Submission + - Fire Water, Erie PA man makes water burn. (myspace.com)

aeroseth writes: "Carried by the Associated Press and reported on Yahoo!, Wired News, The Pittsburg Post Gazett and and CBS News: (AP) An Erie cancer researcher has found a way to burn salt water, a novel invention that is being touted by one chemist as the "most remarkable" water science discovery in a century.
John Kanzius happened upon the discovery accidentally when he tried to desalinate seawater with a radio-frequency generator he developed to treat cancer. He discovered that as long as the salt water was exposed to the radio frequencies it would burn.
The discovery has scientists excited by the prospect of using salt water, the most abundant resource on earth, as a fuel.
Rustum Roy, a Penn State University chemist, has held demonstrations at his State College lab to confirm his own observations.
The radio frequencies act to weaken the bonds between the elements that make up salt water, releasing the hydrogen, Roy said. Once ignited, the hydrogen will burn as long as it is exposed to the frequencies, he said."
