(Solar) Power to the Masses

Maybe one day we can have international power lines where all the countries with lots of sunshine provide power to the rest of the world? How cool would that be?" The NY Times has a good article on solar power in Japan.

    That was only a small part of Superman III. Of all of them, THAT ONE WAS THE WORST. Then again, I only like the 1st one (and the evil chick from the second one ).

    Spolier Alert YO!

    I know I shouldn't expect realism in a movie like this but the whole Ebola thing did it for me. Ebola turns a human into a blood exploding hand gernade. Blood flows out of every orfice including the eyes and sometimes even the pores on the skin.

    That lame shit where the guy coughs up a tiny bit of blood and then dies was so stupid I hated the movie from then on.
