  1. Why are'nt sea levels rising on Huge Arctic Ice Shelf Breaks Off · · Score: 1

    If so much ice has broken off, than how come the Sea levels haven't risen anywhere? If they have, how come no one is reporting the two events together?

  2. INDIA!!!! on Programming Jobs Abroad For a US Citizen? · · Score: 1

    The ultimate in outsourcing, Americans going to India to program....

  3. Revelation on Single Gene Gives Mice Three-Color Vision · · Score: 1

    Jerry must have never realized Tom is grey, I wonder what color he thought he was.

  4. The system would have to be completely automatic on Remote Control To Prevent Aircraft Hijacking · · Score: 1

    If the system is turned on the hijackers could just threaten to kill hostages unless ground control flew the plane to a specific destination. They would have to make a global database of secure, unsecure, airstrip, runway locations and when the switch was flipped, the plane would automatically fly and land itself to the nearest location according to predefined logic without any human intervention. That would make hijacking to get to a destination or hostage taking towards a political goal an exercise in futility.

  5. what do you except.. on Vista Worse For User Efficiency Than XP · · Score: 1

    They say you need 4 GB of RAM to achieve "RAM sweetspot" so what do you expect.... Kudos to Microsoft for producing another resource hogging masterpiece!

  6. Why the government...... on Germany Quits EU-Based Search Engine Project · · Score: 1

    Why would the French and German Governments be interested in a European search engine? Shouldn't it be German and French companies? Unless some other motive was behind this....

  7. $100 to feed a village for a year? I dont think so on The Failure of the $100 Laptop? · · Score: 5, Informative

    I work for an NGO in Yemen, and $100 will not feed 4 houses of 5 persons for 2 months in a rural area, much less a village for a year. I cannot believe that such an outrageously inaccurate statement can be made.
