A semitransparent version for use in tracing.

I'm really tired of the japanese enforcing their culture on all of the rest of us earth-dwellers. I mean come on! I can't even walk down the street with out tripping over a sushi restaurant, or an anime video store. Now they're taking over disney! Is nothing sacred! /sarcasm

Come on. No true thourough review will come from having "town meetings." This is just a public stunt to make people feel like they have input in drafting the policy. My bet is that this thing is already signed-sealed and delivered.

If they really wanted a quality review they'd submit it to 20-30 different universities, think tanks and businesses and individuals who are integral to studying the internet. By doing reviews in a "town meeting" format, they might as well just put it on a call in talk show and have the callers "draft" the policy.

I don't mean to put down the quality of input that ordinary "citizens" can add to this policy, a town hall is just not the way to do it.

hrumph.

I do own a fuel cell. To be exact, it's a small direct methanol cell, which runs on a 3% methanol and 97% water solution. I'm damn sure that 3% methanol is not too flamable.

My guess is that the number one thing keeping fuel cells off the mainstream market is the cost of production. Specifically, the poles of the cell have to be made of platinum. Last time I checked platinum isn't too cheap.

Even though the parent post mentioned it as an offhand comment, Walt Disney was not actually cryogenically frozen. There are some pretty interesting rumors circulating about his post-mortal whereabouts, such as the common "he's frozen underneath the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' in Disneyland". Additionally, Disney Corp's wish to respect Walt Disney's private-life did not do much to dissuade those who believed otherwise. No ice-cube Walt here as it turns out he was in fact cremated. A simple google search turns up some relevant sources. Such as a pretty detailed site here with a copy of his death certificate and of course, nothing beats an interview with the unthawed Walt himself.

I've found a novel new place to find the little buggers. Take a trip 20-30 minutes out of any major metropolis and you'll find that the rural outskirts are often littered (sadly) with old appliances. Often very old appliances. I found a basket full of buggers out of a few old TV sets on a friend's property last week. They tend to weather the elements pretty well. The load I found were probably dumped at least 10 years ago and were all in perfect condition.

Then, if you're a real man/woman, clean up the old trash.

for uncovering the absurdity of bureauocracies and the marketplace. Try reading Liar's Poker, by Michael Lewis, or Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser. You get the benefit of learning something about reality.

Don't get me wrong, nothing brightens my day more than an Orwellian dystopia where people are reduced to robotic flesh and emotions have been run through an authoraritarian meat grinder--I just like my gloom and doom with a dose of reality.

Once you're throgh that looking-glass, your employer will never really trust you again. They may simply be extending you that offer to keep you on long enough to find a replacement for your position at a lower price.

In any case, they'll always be looking over their shoulder at you, expecting you to find new and exciting ways to ratchet up your salary. Not a good place to be.

Good Luck!

Dear Chinese Reporter,

In case you were looking for more news to reprint about the stupidness that is America, here are some other leads you might want to follow:
1) America is stupid
2) No, seriously. Just put that up as your headline and your readers will believe it. Though you might get letters berating you for not being mean enough.
3) And despite that win the other day, we still suck at soccer.
4) And we're all very, very gay.
5) And completely against education, sewer systems, organized government and hygiene.
6) And we find Jay Leno to be absolutely hilarious.

If only number six weren't true.
