And then in ten years it finds its way into your car. Into golf clubs and tennis rackets. Into medical implants.

This whackadoodle crap is the quality reporting we now get on Slashdot.

I wouldn't call the flower garden in front of the old age hospital a lawn.

And there's all that tireless training and stressful competition. Who wants to do that?

I see you stopped your music education in kindergarten.

Ink will cost more than a divorce.

Read/Write. This isn't simply printing.

Holden: You're in a desert, walking along in the sand, when all of a sudden you look down...

Leon: What one?

Holden: What?

Leon: What desert?

Holden: It doesn't make any difference what desert, it's completely hypothetical.

Leon: But, how come I'd be there?

Holden: Maybe you're fed up. Maybe you want to be by yourself. Who knows? You look down and see a tortoise, Leon. It's crawling toward you...

Leon: Tortoise? What's that?

Holden: [irritated by Leon's interruptions] You know what a turtle is?

Leon: Of course!

Holden: Same thing.

Leon: I've never seen a turtle... But I understand what you mean.

Holden: You reach down and you flip the tortoise over on its back, Leon.

Leon: Do you make up these questions, Mr. Holden? Or do they write 'em down for you?

Holden: The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.

Leon: [angry at the suggestion] What do you mean, I'm not helping?

Holden: I mean: you're not helping! Why is that, Leon?

[Leon has become visibly shaken]

Holden: They're just questions, Leon. In answer to your query, they're written down for me. It's a test, designed to provoke an emotional response... Shall we continue?

You can't call it the 'device'. It must always be referred to as the SHIELD Tablet.

I think it's great when they do that with a product with a long name.

By the time we're able to harvest diamonds from other planetary bodies we'll have perfected laboratory synthethis. Actually, we'll perfect that LONG before we start mining other planetary bodies.

I have NEVER seen or heard of a company that had the policy of forbidding relationships between co-workers. That is not in any way normal.

Mount Nyiragongo is probably the next volcano to cause large scale destruction.

I've always respected construction zones until I saw the abuse in Alberta. They put their signs up days before they do any work. They put them way too far before the real work. When they're working very close to the road they'll not put signs up at all. It's just a clusterfark. A construction zone sign pretty much means nothing because the construction workers have abused the system so much.

You pull out your phone, look up the password, and type it in! It's REALLY hard.
