Was his midi-chlorians level off the chart as well?
Thanks everyone for the heads-up.
I have an older HTC smartphone and I really like it. An HTC Hero now way outdated and underpowered. Its small when everyone was going big. It has been very reliable, it uses a pretty standard USB connector that ive never had any problems with.
Compare this to my wife's Samsung Moment, we have had to replace the power adapter 5 times because the little conenctor is just too thin to take the abuse of regular use.
I had been looking at buying another HTC but now I probably wont. It's too bad because I really like my phone and the new HTC's look good.
Wow that was fast. Some of you out there really are smart.
About half way down the wikkipedia article for e was exactly the function I was thinking of.

It is extremely difficult to use the legal system to force a domain squatter to give up the domain.

Buy it from them or pick a different name. $2000 sounds reasonable for the

But they are probably hoping some large company will put out a technopurse and gladly pay the ransom for technopurse.com
" They're so used to living in a theocracy, that they presume that if a film is released in the United States, the United States Government must be behind it! How could it be otherwise?"
-It doesnt help that the news, even our local news, headlined it as a "US-made" video when actually it was just some random guy.
"I can think of no other reason why, of all the scientific facts that people might disagree with or disbelieve, [evolution] is the one they pick on. Physics gets through OK. Chemistry gets through Ok. But not biology/geology, and I think it's got to be because of religion."
Thats an easy answer. Biology and Geology are taught in school. For most middle-aged adults, these were high school requirements. Or the easiest versions were "Life Science" and "Earth Science". Physics and chemistry are electives for the nerds who are interested in the stuff.
Those that just don't "get it" are more apt to dismiss science and fall back on mysticism.
Why on earth would you put it this way?
May as well be opening Al Capone's Vaults! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mystery_of_Al_Capone's_Vaults
This is evolutionary not revolutionary. Aspects that were designed for one platform are moving to another. Big deal. The Dinosaurs are not inheriting the earth.
Is this really news? We know that each element has N protons and electrons, and then some neutrons(not sure how that number is derived).
So its not really a 'discovery' as much as a logical step. And of what use are the super dense elements when they will all require a huge amount of energy to produce AND they decay rapidly?
Now if in theory we knew that element 1337 could produce anti-gravity or some such effect not normally possible, that would give us a reason for research and producing that may be a real discovery. Otherwise, YAWN.
OW! MY HEAD!
The description of the article is misleading..
"available from the U.K.'s Bureau of Investigative Journalism."
-makes it sound like it is a government-sponsored website when it is fact a privately owned and operated site.
