when I was a kid I wore braces. I also tested batteries with my tongue. One day I decided to connect a 9V battery (the one with the poles side by side) with my braces, to see what will happen. One pole on the upper side, the other on the bottom. There was a big shock, my field of vision became bright white for a split second, and I never tested batteries with any part of my face ever again.
After reading the Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson, I think when talking about the space elevator, we should always consider what happens if (when?) it fails. Space fountains seem much more appealing.
That would only make sense if Einstein kept moving with the same speed for the same amount of time with the time we was "time-traveling". This wouldn't be time traveling. just traveling separately. Also, without gravity, Einstein would just fly out to space
Wow. I live in Greece, and the belief here is that we are very backwards in terms of broadband. Affordable ADSL has been around for about 3 years, but now most people can get a 24mbit connection by a variety of providers, for around 20-22 euros. I suppose this is something around $30, so I guess it's pretty close to your example. I'd thought that, given that broadband was adopted in the US a LOT earlier than Greece, prices over there would be much cheaper.
My card is a Mobility Radeon 9000, and after the upgrade to Gutsy, compiz wouldn't work, neither with ati/aiglx, nor with xgl/fglrx. However, using this driver made compiz load!
My problem is I used the install method, and did not create a deb package, because using this option creates a really tall window, in which I can only see redhat and suse. Maybe ubuntu was somewhere at the bottom of the window, but it didn't fit inside my screen...:(
Have a look at this:

Seems like your government is involved in fusion research http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6165932. stm
1. Civilization - best game ever
"In the beginning, games were without form, and void.
But Microprose shone upon the sleeping gamers and deep inside the brittle crust of the pc-at, Civ was unleashed."
The rest is history...

Been very happy with https://freedns.afraid.org/ ever since dyndns deleted my free domain because I didn't login to their website once a month.
From world war to cold war to cyber war. Can't say I don't like the trend...
We'll be using quantum computers before the appeals run out.
Will they run linux?

Actually, it worked for some of us.

hmmm. I think that you must prove that you invented something in order to patent it...
