axis-techno-geek writes: "Ballard Power Systems of Vancouver, BC (in Canada, eh), has stated that it will start production this friday of their consumer level Nexa(tm) hydrogen fuel cell (article here). The power module generates up to 1200 watts of unregulated DC electrical power that can keep going as long as it is supplied with hydrogen, and produces no toxic by-products (i.e. you can use it in your home). They also have plans for a 250kW unit. No price as of yet."

  Hey, Faggot:
  I'm feeling uneasy about the advice you gave to "A Struggling Soul," who feels that God disapproves of his sexual relations. I felt, reading his letter, that he may be seeking a deeper spiritual experience in life. Maybe God is calling him to a more soulful life.
  You called him a pea brain and you told him that angels do not exist. How could you trivialize his experience so crassly? You presented an ugly stereotype of people who believe in angels. I believe in a loving God and I believe in angels as a manifestation of God's grace.
  My God has no prejudice against gay sex. The good news is that God's grace is there for all of us. I would urge the man who wrote you to pray, meditate and listen for the still, small voice of God.

  Who's Dan Savage? I don't know, really.
  I did a Google search for "faggot story" and that piece came up. It's as good for crapflooding Slashdot as anything.

If you found a mouse... by Tyrannosaurus · 2001-09-28 09:22 · Score: 1, Offtopic

Emitting only heat and water as byproducts of power generation, the NexaTM power module allows OEM products to be used in indoor environments and other locations not possible with conventional power sources such as internal combustion engine generators.

Assuming you stored the water byproduct in a bottle, this begs the question...

If you found a mouse in the bottle, would you get a free beer?
