Sorry, you need to think more creatively. I can think of several types of presentations that would benefit from even simple animation support: data flow diagrams (networking, software engineering), illustrating business processes (document workflow, budget approvals), and more that I could probably think of.

It would also be nice to know if the trojan is a universal binary. If not, maybe those of us still running PowerPC machines have a reason to keep using them.

I'm not referring to misdiagnosis, but rather situations where the medical staff (pre-op and post-op nurses), for example mark the wrong limb for amputation. Having the code would make it possible for systematic checks to occur (say, a bar code not matching the medical procedure listed in the patient's file.)

It may be an "unfunded mandate", but it will probably help eliminate thousands of medical errors (mistaken amputations, incorrect medicine given to patients, etc.)

Sorry, I take issue with continuing to propagate the "scarcity" myth:

• International Forum on Globalization: Seven Deadly Myths and Facts About Hunger
• International Forum on Globalization: Nine Myths About Industrial Agriculture and Hunger
• World Hunger: 12 Myths (There's Simply Not Enough Food)

It wasn't all that long ago when an entire newspaper was $0.25. Now just one comic strip is that much? /

You're comparing apples and oranges. A newspaper is 25 cents because of all of the advertising. To make a proper comparison, you'd have to know what price the newspaper would be sold at without adverstising. In other words, 25 cents for a comic without adverstising sounds about right. If he sold advertising on his website, maybe he could sell the comic for 2-3 cents, who knows...
