WD forever. They did have a bad batch of blue's circa 2006 that were in Gateway machines (before you start, the college I was with was contracted there for bulk purchases at the time), but other than that, never had an issue. Also, nice DeathStar reference.

They've finally found the location of the island. It's somewhere in that gravity hole.

Move everyone up 30 minutes permanently. In the winter, things get dark a little early. In the summer, it stays dark a little more into the morning.

Submission + - Should sites like Wikipedia be blocked at schools?

Submitted by Londovir on Tuesday February 20, 2007 @09:02PM

Londovir writes: Recently our school board made the decision to block Wikipedia from our school district's WAN system. This was a complete block — there aren't even provisions in place for teachers or administrators to input a password to bypass the restriction. The reason given was that Wikipedia (being user created and edited) did not represent a credible or reliable source of reference for schools. My question is: should we block sites such as Wikipedia because students may be exposed to misinformation, or should we encourage sites such as Wikipedia as an outlet for students to investigate and determine validity of information? What's your opinion?
