I would hope you are the only one mystified by it.

The reason for the stew's popularity? He did what so many of us would like to do when the rude people win. Tell them off and get the last word.

As a frequent traveler, I won't condemn him/ however, I will say that his actions, although excessive and illegal, are indicative of a reaction to the change in attitude toward others I have seen while traveling. Most, but not all, passengers on flights ignore the stews all flight except when they want something from the stews. Meanwhile they put up with rude people who feel that what they want and need is more important than anyone elses needs on the flight, no matter what.

The stew was hit in the head because someone opend a overhead bin into his head. When confronted and asked to apologize the person in question refused. Common courtesy and manners says apologize, but the attitudes I see these days says that they should tell the stew where to go.

Is it too much to ask that we go back to treating each other the way we want to be treated?

I have read most of the replies thus far and they are all talking about the experience level, safety record, and knowledge pool existing at NASA.

Did nobody catch the irony of a FEDERAL panel claiming that switching to private alternatives would be "...unwise and probably not cost-effective." Since when is the federal government cost effective? They spend our money like they can always print more.

    Ok, they do print the money, but my point is that a federal panel claiming that the government would be more cost effective than private business is like the con man claiming he can save you money, neither is true.

Obviously you have never met my mother. :D

sellout!

Great, they were the answer to a crappy browser, and now they are going the way of that same crappy browser.

I really hate the IE interface and Office 2007 has only been a greater pain.

Thanks for listening to your users guys!

Or having the Nibbler that would also put the hole in the 3.5 flopies so they would be double sided?

LD vs HD?

as long as sentence diagraming in English class gets dropped first. I write most of my notes in a kludgy mix of print and cursive as it is, but I have yet to find a use for all that time the english teacher made me spend diagraming out sentences.

I, for one, thought the article was good for giving us a look into the future of the tech. Based on teh way things are rapid prototyped and built these days I would expect to see something like this hit the markets in 5-7 years, and the price become reasonable with 2-3 years after that. 10 years to a cheap and cost efficient power source is not bad.

So what is the next step? Do we take down the net now that we know it's running on it's own, or do we use it as a study in AI?

On his homegroup, Bob wants to share certain documents with his wife but not with his kids. Simply by specifying his wifeâ(TM)s Windows Live ID user name, Bob can give his wife exclusive permission to access documents on his computer.

Shortly thereafter Bob's wife files for divorce because he mistakenly included all his special pron files in the access permissions.

Sounds like someone is trying to be flamebait.
