Personalized Moon Crash
Ich Bin Zu writes "Do you want to create your own crater on the moon? CNN has an article about a company putting a personalized moon crash for sale on ebay. The bid opens with $6 million which will enable the highest bidder to stuff up to 10kg worth of stuff on a space craft and lob it to the moon. The condition of the cargo is not guaranteed as it crashes on the moon at 4000 mph."

Did you ever wonder why Slashdot only supports 7-bit ASCII, i.e. no extended ASCII, Unicode or ISO-8859 characters?
Because Slashdot is a wholly American and Patriot website, that's why.
Think about it! Do you want Slashdot to become a forum for terrorists, where they can freely discuss plans for taking away our freedom and killing our brave soldiers through HORRIBLE ACTS OF TERRORISM in their own language and the heathen Arabic script? Unicode, a system that enables terrorists worldwide to plan terrorist actions and communicate through the Internet. Though most try to cover it up, it is no secret to most IT-savvy Americans that Unicode development is partly funded by Al-Qaeda and partly by the French, dictator-supporting government.
There is none of that anti-social trash here. Slashdot supports only AMERICAN, PATRIOTIC CHARACTERS. Eurotrash, look out, because you can't use your fucking umlauts and ~'s here. We saved your sorry asses in World War II -- the least you can do is show some fucking respect and use our alphabet. Slashdot does not support your anti-American characters. 7-bit ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is commonly known as US-ASCII. This speaks for itself. The one and only choice for PATRIOTIC AMERICANS is US-ASCII, the STANDARD CODE for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. I'm proud to be an American, and I'm PROUD be a member of this patriotic, American Slashdot community. I am not going to let freedom-hating terrorists plot evil plans on an American-owned, FREE SPEECH website.
Do not believe the terrorist propaganda lies.
Boycott Unicode -- it is a tool of terrorism.
USE ANYTHING OTHER THAN US-ASCII AND THE TERRORISTS HAVE ALREADY WON.

you weigh 10kg? eat a burger!
Are you talking about Alice?
Naaaah, she's too nice for the moon.
How about my dick in Condi? That chick is HAWT! With a capital H!
bitchin' UID, but you forgot the tags.
I wish there was a day in a year when slashdot wouldn't post anything. Free yourselves from your CPUs and make Easter a computer-free day.
That's what happens when yur all cranked up.
instead of sitting around bitching about polluting something we can't even inhabit yet why don't you get off your lazy asses and protest. you're all so god damn morally superior with your giant nerd like brains and your posts are indeed proof of that with your big words and smart grammar, but how about a good old fashioned get off your ass protest? speak up and let your voices be heard. i'm sure a lot of the slashdot community has some high rank pull and could offer SOMETHING to a "cause"
as for me, i have my opinions on all the crazy shit out there and i do my part. i've protested things that have never changed and i've went out of my way to change what needed to be changed. i'm not rich and i don't have much pull but at least i get off my ass... give it a try...
