I honestly read it as, "Marijuana Majorana Fermion May..." not "Majorana Fermion May..."

Too much on my mind, I guess.

To me, the biggest problem is that most news outlets are "writing" news instead of "reporting" news. Today, it's all about spin and market share. OK, so this is certainly nothing new. Heck, the "Oh the humanity!" reporting at the Hindenburg disaster was probably nothing new at its time. Maybe I'm just Old School, but when I see a newscaster reading a story on the 11:00 news, I have an expectation that what he is saying is as factual as the reporters were able to determine, and that opinion and editorial are left out. Unfortunately, that's an expectation of the past.

Leif Ericson made it to America some 500 years before Christopher Columbus.

Don't dismiss "free press" so quickly. I personally do not agree with their message or method of delivering their message, but they have a Constitutional right to speak their message, just as you or I have the Constitutional right to voice our disagreement with it. Liberty and freedom don't come cheaply.

Oh how I SO WISH I had some moderator points!

Touche!

Do Westboro's actions in any way diminish the innovation that Steve Jobs contributed to the technology industry?

Any answer other than "No!" should be considered very naive.

Let Westboro have their day of protest--which will be very short-lived. Conversely, Steve Job's legacy will live on far longer than theirs ever will.

Besides, it is their Constitutional right to protest, just as it is mine to disagree with them.

I'm certainly not disputing the legitimacy of science, but in this current age of misinformation, people need to realize that science is a discipline in constant flux. Nature and the Universe tend to stay constant, following their own laws--it's Man's perceptions and understanding that are continually changing. As we learn more and more, we tune our theories, hypotheses, and laws to better understand nature's hidden mysteries.

That the observation of a sub-atomic particle appears to confound or violate established scientific law really only means that it science has yet another mystery of nature that it does not yet fully understand. Maybe the methodology is flawed. Maybe the law is flawed. But that it happens at all should certainly not surprise any scientist--it should motivate to gain a better understanding.

If you buy one of everything (wifi models only) that Amazon announced today, it is cheaper than the low end iPad.

I'd rather drink human breast milk. At least the source is more appealing.
