Sure - but where are we going to get a hyperloop that big and 3,000 WRT54Gs at THIS hour?

Windows has always been like a cheaply made off road vehicle made in a former Soviet-bloc country. The controls were a little weird, and it broke down a lot, but otherwise it could drive on a lot of really sketchy roads, and you probably knew a guy who knew how to fix it for you when it broke down.

Then Windows 8 came along. To continue the analogy, it was like a new model year of that same cheaply made Eastern European off-road vehicle suddenly came with a few well-needed under-the-hood improvements so that it wouldn't break down as readily, along with a big 8" spike sticking out of the centre of the drivers seat. Aficionados who have never driven another car in their lives rave about the spike (it's painted some very nice colours), and continue to flood forums trying to convince people who have stayed away from the newer model because of the spike that if they just tried it long enough, they'd get used to having a giant spike up their asses.

Now Microsoft is coming out with Windows 10, the biggest benefit of which is that it now features a slightly shorter spike. And Windows zealots will try to convince everyone else that it's a major improvement. But you're still taking it in the ass every time you get in for a ride.

Ask some random person to name another WHOI scientist after Bob Ballard. Thought so. Even when he first started splitting his time between WHOI and NatGeo - many of the established scientists in the field could not comprehend why he would want to go on TV and gas on about ocean science. It was like he was speaking another language. After he got the vents stuff out in the mainstream, I happened to be in Woods Hole and saw that they had finally put together a WHOI exhibit on the work that was done. Understand that WHOI proper has always been a locked-down place with nothing much public. NOAA Fisheries has an exhibit and for a long time you could pop into MBL and see what was going on - within reason - used to borrow their labs to sort out alga specimens. So after going through the new exhibit in an old church at the top end of Water St., I was talking to someone who has a business in town and remarked that it was nice to have something permanent for the public about WHOI, good for them. Punchline? She told me the church was merely rented for the exhibit. Arrrrgggghhhh!

Well, my stepson was fighting an actual battle on an actual battlefield, and it had nothing to do with posting to Twitter or Youtube.

Traditional producers are apparently willing to let the price of crude float so as to try and starve out the frackers. Theory is once they shutter the most expensive methods of getting oil out of the ground they could reduce competition / supply and drive up the price.

my first choice if I have $27K to spend. Line for line a Golf, and with the US tax credit it's the same net purchase cost as a GTI. This Mark VII Golf is by all reviews a considerable step up in the platform. It doesn't encroach on the trunk like the Focus Energi, a lot more heritage than the Nissan B platform, it's not a cramped version of a compact Chevy, and for $700 they send Bosch to your house to install a 4-hour charger. Second call would be to SolarCity.

How about "incentives".
