Submission + - Extracing Oil and Gas From Everything (popsci.com) 2

Submitted by BlaineZilla
BlaineZilla writes: Popular Science has an article about a new invention that extracts oil and gas from just about everything you place in it. Add an old tire, hit it with a few microwaves and couple seconds you have oil. It sounds too good to be true, but if it is I think this guy might make a couple bucks.
It's funny. Laugh.

Why Everyone Should Hate Cellphone Carriers 329

Posted by Zonk from the penalty-for-wanting-to-talk-to-your-wife dept.
The Byelorrusian Spamtrap writes "Wired Magazine's made its position clear on the state of play in America's cellular industry, delivering a long, satisfying screed on why all of us should stop complaining and do something about it. 'They own politicians - Sure, it's just phones. In a world where worse things happen all the time amid the muck and despair of human existence, having to pay for premium text is hardly worth worrying about, is it? You can (and should) opt out, and not sign on the dotted line to begin with. But today's cell towers might be tomorrow's Pony Express: they're TV stations, internet access, emergency 911 and news networks all rolled into one. WWAN could well end up supplanting copper sooner than anyone expects: do you want these companies in charge of it?'"
