Comment Practical applications? (Score 0, Offtopic) 256

Uhh, how about providing the theoretical groundwork not only for being able to reverse the polarity of the phase inducers (which is the answer to most of life's problems), but also for being able to reverse the polarity of the main deflector dish to fire a tachyon pulse? Generally speaking, it allows you to reverse polarity on things, thereby providing an extremely simple and elegant solution that somehow was never conceived before.

Comment I had something like this too . . . (Score 1) 526

I was one of the 15-20 people who bought the XBOX360 HD-DVD add-on a couple years back. Last spring I received an envelope from Best Buy that contained a $50 Best Buy gift card and a letter. The letter noted HD-DVD's demise and that Best Buy's records showed that I purchased an HD-DVD player from them. I'm a member of Best Buy's customer loyalty program ("Best Buy Rewards") and figured that was how they found me. I can't say that I much cared how they found me, as I was happy to have the Best Buy cash that I didn't ask for.

No, it's probably because he's been trained to think that sweatshop owners, as a specific subset of people in "business," are unethical, if not liars and thieves in the literal sense. And for the record, there's nothing "ironic" about trusting the exploitee (sweatshop worker) more than the exploiter (sweatshop owner). 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife, now THAT'S ironic.
