Hidden Hypertext Transfer Protocol?
Hyperbole Hypertext Transfer Protocol?
Hardly Hypertext Transfer Protocol?

And stop eating meat OR veggies -- I can hear the carrots scream!

Ok, ok! There were incredibly small amounts of lithium and beryllium produced in the big bang, as in 10e-8 percent or something... :)

I *think* TFA is implying that they can determine the intrinsic color, even when highly red-shifted, and that this intrinsic color is extremely blue due to the lack of any elements other than hydrogen and helium. This would be expected, because no elements heavier than helium had yet been synthesized.

Interesting question. Since we got married 37 years ago (OMG!), she has handled 95% of the money management. For every bill I've paid, she's paid hundreds of them. Who knows how to log into the bank website and manage three (four?) accounts? She does. Who had to sit the other down and force them to take notes about where the various money-market and mutual-funds accounts were? She did (I have my notes somewhere...)

But, when it comes to buying computer HW and SW, I do it. :)

I have OpenOffice installed on my main PC (XP64), because I don't need much more than the ability to open docs sent to me or that I download. Works fine for what I ask it to do.

But, my wife, who is an MS Office expert, can't stand it. It is just too limited and clunky compared to Office, she says. So, for her PC, I fork out the $$ and buy Office. Oh, and MS Office is on our shared MacBook.

For the "serious user" market, OO is not currently a threat to MS Office. But for the casual, "use it once in awhile" market, it is. Now, given Microsoft's history of competing against incumbent, entrenched players by targeting the bottom end of a market and improving over time with increasingly competitive but still cheaper technology, they are probably very sensitive to seeing OO become the easy choice for the entry-level user.

I'll conjecture that Grigory Perelman doesn't know who Brittany Murphy was, either.

... for better or worse, right or wrong. Here's another N-year legal donnybrook for us to enjoy.

Sigh! Yes, I know, I know...

They were all in Wisconsin, IIRC.

So, you just walked up to them and demanded, "Are you a student?", and many answered in the affirmative?

And his feet stay warmer. A little cold around the neck and shoulders, though.

I knew it -- Slashdot needs closures!

I see it as a moral/aesthetic issue.This is desecration-for-hire, a cold-hearted scheme to make money off of Grandpa's legacy. But, to be honest, I've no idea what Dr. Asimov would have thought. Hell, maybe he'd approve. But, I don't...

ummmm... Frank's own sequels to "Dune" were spotty. So, at least the other authors were following the pattern.
