Comment Re:And the motorcycles .... (Score 1) 474

So the real problem here is that at 60+ M.P.H. those pipes are whisper quiet to anyone in front of me. Who scares me the most? People in front of me :)
That being said, My Vulcan 800 has quiet pipes. I don't wear yellow, and I stick with drab colors.
Rather than expect noise, colors, or flashing lights to protect me, I prefer to watch what the F#$k I'm doing while riding.

Please watch for motorcycles when you drive. cyclists, please watch for cars too. The scenery may be pretty, but the pavement is not!

Submission + - Who can fix the patent system? We Can! With some help from StackExchange (stackoverflow.com)

highphilosopher writes: So the latest patent reform laws had a little clause in there that the public can submit prior work to the patent office to disprove bad patents. This plus a willing USPTO Director, and the good people at StackExchange makes a winning combination. A StackExchange site dedicated to collecting prior art for bad patents! This is the first thing I've seen that actually does something good for patents.

Actually that's one notable difference about Voyager (which I've been watching alot of lately). Captain Janeway almost always gives specifics about the orbit (e.g. Keep us in range Harry, or Keep a high orbit, I don't want any of those harmful gasses interfering with my midnight hot sexy baths). Maybe not quite like that, but you know subject to change, not avail. in all areas and all that other jazz.
