Totally. I am 48 and this morning I ran a 5K with my 80 year old neighbor. He wasn't fast but he ran every foot step. He has several other 5Ks planned for the year. Age really is a state of mind.

I think that's right. $15 is abut 3 Happy Meals. Each Happy Meal is only about 5 bites. Eight bits in a byte would make 120 bits.

That's because you're thinking like an engineer. Think like an accountant instead. By combining HR, marketing and logistics they can save some overhead. I don't know if that is their plan or not, but many companies do just that. It might not't save huge amounts, but it will save them some money.

I think you are missing the point. "Post-PC" does not mean the end of the personal computer. I use computing devices everyday. I have a desk top, laptop, an iPod, an iPad, an X360, a Wii, and a cell phone. Only two of those are what we commonly think of as a "PC." That is what it means to be living in a "post-PC" world: utilizing computing power in ubiquitous, non-obvious ways, away from what we think of as a "computer".

This is why we can't have nice things.

The GP sure needs something like a quality assurance dept to catch misspellings.

Is that you Sheldon Cooper?

To be fair, carbon monoxide is not nearly as harmful as dihydrogen monoxide. Now that is some scary stuff that really should be banned.

Oh if it were only inserted through the rectum. The stories I have read have been people having fecal matter inserted through a tube down the throat. It appears to be an effective treatment though.

The loose/lose mix-up takes on a whole new meaning when used in the this context. I cringe at the thought of a loose back -end.

I am guessing that is more of an IBM wish list than a set of predictions.

Can they poop dark matter? Didn't think so.

You can have a religion without a god or gods. Religion as I understand it is putting our behavior in line with fundamental principles based on something greater than ourselves. Your argument is somewhat of a Straw man.

Now as far as a belief in God or gods, while there is no "scientific" evidence that God exists (as far as I know), and none that shows he doesn't exist, basing our behavior on one premise or the other is somewhat a show of faith in either God or "science". (I put quotes around "science" because science does not concern itself with the existence God.) So to be an Atheist and posit there is no God is, in a sense to posit that man's communal intellect is greater than individual belief and is somewhat religious.

*I understand that some consider themselves atheists and live their lives agnostic. This is not to whom my comments are addressed. My comments are in regard for those that feel they need to tell people that religion is bad, and yet have behaviors that are based on equally irrational beliefs. This is a discussion, after all on the religious aspects of fanboyism. For every fanboy, there is a hater. And haters are just as religious as fanboys, in my view.

So, are you saying that in the free market, music players would have evolved to where they are now without explaining it in terms of Jobs and Intelligent Design? That's heresy!
