Re:Don't be put off so easily
An electrical arc or some compressed gas in a pressure container full of liquid water with a nozzle to direct the exhaust can create a remarkable amount of thrust. Personally I'd go with the arc in a carbon composite container - superheated steam has so much more oomph. A real rocket scientist could to better, but WTH? Even I could get off the moon without too much help.
When we get to taking off from Mars we find that Mars not only has abundant water, but the soil even contains rocket fuel. It's almost like a trail of breadcrumbs, really... when get get to Saturn we've got entire moons made of hydrocarbons and the rings are mostly water ice available for scooping up. The Asteroid belt is rich in ferrous minerals and the real bounty in frozen hydrogen and oxygen doesn't really pay until we get to the oort cloud. And that's just the stuff we know about. God knows what unknown wealth lies in Undiscovered Country.
I really don't know why we haven't left already. Out There is where the money is. It's the New World of the 21st century. "I claim this moon in the name of Outer Sphere Corporation, a wholly owned BP subsidiary. God save the Chairman!"

Re:Raw deal
way less. take some old press releases from 1999, delete the names, plug in new names...you'll see no difference in claims and metrics, as well as faithful leaps in the apogee of online advertising

Re:20% error compared to 42% error of Google?
Impressive stat. I have also heard from physicians that Google is gradually replacing paid information systems as a source of protocol information - quicker, easier to use, less cumbersome. With Google scholar, you can access to an individuals key publications at a click, which, if disaggregated would take hours. Example on a website: look under each scientist

Building a "Cognitive Reserve"
Experts in cognitive chronometrics and also neuroplasticity have long held these views, but research conducted in the past 3 years and published supports the contention that you can enhance your brain...building a cognitive reserve through 'education' and cognitive training. Some of the gains in BrainAge are due to the practice effect, as are some of the gains in chonometrics, but it also seems that greater attention, speed, and focus capability is a direct result, e.g., your coding is likely to be both faster-to-production and more accurate. a good link for G and ECT's (Arthur Jensen) is here. A free game is here. The historical legacy goes back to Terman.

i forget the name of the preparation you're supposed to buy in that case. why is that these planets are so close to the primary... failed stars rather than failed states

what about midichlorians
Well then we can all find out if the magnetic north is really shifting. Check your midichlorian level or the next best thing... here's an adfree wikipedia version

competitive puzzle games are more social
If you have an objective measure of something, like what's your IQ? (OK that's not completely objective) where lots of people can participate and see the results - that's social think of swinging the sledge hammer at the amusement park and trying to hit the bell with the puck -that's social because a crowd forms. Games need to offer a like kind of experience, particularly ranking/rating games Like, for example, measuring the processor speed of your brain

Set phaser to Stun...Spock....Help... me
Time to get a new Tricorder and phaser, set to "stun" I don't know if I can find the original Trek action figures. Kids were always pinching the heads together and saying things like "Spock, help me" or having Scotty and Spock have a rapelling accident climbing up a hill. Can you beat Spock's Brain?

extensible web data
more should be done to use the web to collect trial information. It costs 1/10th of a traditional trial; eventually the possibilty exists to create a new wellness mgmt system as we are doing on the brain, strictly voluntary, but providing tools allowing people to follow themselves over time - does it work? a few thousand people since 8/18 on this one. with a clear opt-out.

Kistler funds Foundation for The Future....
Cool. UC-Berkeley's Arthur Jensen won Kistler's Foundation For the Future award in 2003. There is much to be said for small teams. The brain and space are the 2 big frontiers. We hope to make a dent in the brain area. We're even giving away a quick speed test free, no sign up or you can take a brain test (with piped in Vangelis mp3) based on the noir film Blade Runner.

it's all about relevancy.
social sites and those that let people do something like measuring their thought speed are getting more popular. big media sites don't have this relevancy and so the flurry for relevancy and focus.
