Clean Nuclear Launches?
AKAImBatman writes "When it comes to launching millions of pounds of material into space, nearly everyone knows about the Orion Project. Blow up a series of nuclear bombs under your dairy-aire and ride the explosion on up. Unfortunately, the Orion spewed out so much radiation that it just wasn't a feasible launch option. If we want commuter trips to space, we're going to have to find another way. Well, it turns out that NASA's been doing quite a bit of research on Gas Core Nuclear Rockets, an ultra-powerful nuclear rocket that puts out almost no radiation. This research has spurred a fascinating new generation of ideas on reaching the cosmos. Could inexpensive cruises to the moon happen within our lifetimes?"
Nucular Launches. What is it all about... is it good, or is it whack?
BAN THE BOMB!
We'll never get to the moon again.
George: I knew there was a reason to hang on to my old VCR. That's my ticket to the moon, baby!
Craimer: Hey, I still have one too. Giddeup!
Jerry: Hold on, buckos. I'm sure the VCR acronym stands for something very scientific.
Elane: Yeah, you guys are too excitable.
Jerry: "Excitable?" Is that even a word?
Elane: Yep. I used it today in my crossword puzzle.
A programmer is a machine for converting coffee into code.
Is derriere REALLY that f'ing difficult to spell? If you can't even come CLOSE to spelling the word properly, DON'T USE IT.
Jesus christ, use m-w.com or something if you're not sure.
Komrade, give me teh launche code, immeditaley! kekekekekke ^_^
Pardon your french... It's "derriere", french for "behind".
Although i agree with you I can't recall ever seeing a post containing the words "butt munch" getting a 5: Informative.
MHD Disk is the latest in video encoding for Media requiring a High-Definition format. It is superior to the other formats that are being fought over right now, including certain DVD initiatives that were discussed here recently. MHD is the only high-definition encoding that supports VCR, as the article judiciously illustrates.
The initial prototype comes with a dual-tray system that allows you to load two MHD disks at the same time, and makes a smart use of different color cables to facilitate connections with your Audio/Video receiver.
And it runs BeOS, too.

Sometimes the more people know they are afraid of it. I wasn't truly terrified of police until my best friend became one and took me for some ride alongs..
