Riding the UK of Arsenal would be the best thing to happen! Think of all the Gooners they could clear out.

"making it is way" would sound better, agreed.

I wish you were right. I wish it was a dwindling problem, soon to be eradicated. I want to believe that. However, conservative Christians (which should make heads explode with paradox) aren't going away anytime soon. I think you are right that most Boomers that hold these beliefs will be departing in the next decade or so. But they have grandchildren, many of whom listen. I have been teaching middle school geography for ten years. This year was the very first time I had 2 sets of parents question my teaching of the Big Bang as they didn't believe it. I teach at a private school with intensely involved parents so this was not an issue of some parents just happen to start paying attention. While not a strong example, it does lead me to believe that the idea that Young Earth/ID types are fading away is simply not true.

Ha. Please find me someone with more contempt and disdain for the law than.... law enforcement! Shocked they would be breaking rules. What's next?

From Oculus to Cockulus courtesy of Suckerburg...

+10 funny needed. This so exceeds +5 funny... and sad at the same because it is true. All dreams of VR are gone. Let's now call it the Cockulus head set....

I think they meant to brand Slashdot Beta a 'menace'...

Dot matrix printer, Wizardry, Ultima IV (I think?), MicroLeague Baseball, Flight Simulator. A 12 year old that didn't know better sure enjoyed his PCJr

Saying a probe wakes up on Monday assumes no glitches. Wouldn't it be best to say "should/expected to/might" wake up Monday?

Hence I rarely use them?? Ahem, this is slashdot... THAT is why you rarely use them....

good god where are mod points when needed. "Real zombie movies" is among the better laughs I have had lately!

What is the speed of dark energy? To go on and on about the speed of light, because we can see it seems to assume that we know something about the speed of dark energy. Assuming we know even one thing about dark energy seems a bit bold. I can only imagine our current fixation on c will sound like the ether to future physicists. Give us a few centuries and perhaps we'll be zipping around nicely (assuming we don't nucularize ourselves first)

Fine, you won't help us. Well screw you! We'll just call sushi Freedom Fish and to hell with you.

be nice : )

Ahhh. thanks for the info. Never thought about the on off thing. Ballasts, huh.
