After examining 166 problems posted by 26 research labs on the InnoCentive site over four years, Karim Lakhani, a Harvard Business School professor, found 240 people, on average, examined each problem, 10 offered answers and 29.5% of the problems were solved. Wikiproblema?
Perhaps student's homework assignments could be done the same way.
These younger students will just have to expand upon their elders' past solutions... Instead of out of state IDs they'll need to forge Canadian or Mexican IDs. It may even have the side effect of a more "Internationally Aware" youth.
Good point. Also, cell phones today use a much lower transmit power. This may mean that even if the did cause cancer before, the chance is less likely that they do now. That is assuming the different transmit frequencies used don't make a difference.
Not quite true...
The Deptartment of Defense classifies UAV usage for "Dull, Dirty, or Dangerous" tasks. I immagine that civilian uses would likely follow the same mantra with the added "Cost" factor that military uses don't care about. There are civilian uses in the US right now such as aerial photography, structure inspections, and surveying. However these tasks are currently limited to the RC hobbist ranges.
SUV bashing isn't even all that accurate. Sports cars trade mileage for performance. For example, the Audi A6 sedan gets 22mpg (combined)--the same as the Toyota Highlander SUV.

Tilt sensors indirectly measure orientation (tilt). They look at the change in the gravitational acceleration vector with respect to the sensor coordinate frame.

What ever happened to teaching your children to "look both ways" before crossing the street?

"Why not work on making the more immediately sensitive parts more "robust", like someone mentioned above with the screen?"
Because Intel and Microsoft don't make screens.
