Depending how it would decompose, it could be used for propulsion outside the atmosphere, where weight to energy ratios are so important that nuclear bombs as propellant were once seriously considered.
A.k.a., chlorofluorocarbon. Or the uranium shortage? Or the ivory shortage? Or the newsprint shortage? All pre-shashdot, of course. Next, the sunlight shortage! Laugh now, you won't in 2031.
For some reason, I thought this common and recurring problem was mine. "How could so many sites have this mismatch?" Duh, silly me. Next thing I know, my bank will lose all my money, and my home will drop in value below my mortgage balance. Nah, never happens.
As fast as you run, you would run faster if you knew a lion were chasing you or if you truly believed a lion were chasing you. Neither good nor evil is a lion, but they were created by mankind for similar effects.
It is an iPhone. What 20th Century Neanderthal uses it to make phone calls? That is so second millennium! If you use it to make iChatty video calls, you can avoid the antenna problems using WiFi and enjoy screwing AT&T out of billing you for voice minutes. That is the Apple Way.
I'll read it. It probably will not make one lick of sense to me, unless it's using Riemannian space, then it might make one lick if it's using the manifolds as metric spaces. Either way, it sounds more interesting than learning whether ICANN will approve.XXX.
They lost their market share, their mobile customers, and now their developers. At least they have been thorough. BTW, did anyone mention that their new version of Windows Mobile runs the old version of Internet Explorer (IE7)? It will soon be the older version as IE9 will release at about the same time.
True. Afghanistan is about the size of Texas. Any mountainous land mass that big is bound to have mineral wealth, just based upon the law of averages. The issues are always related to acquisition cost.
We are wed to Oil. Other countries may not be as integrated into Oil's infrastructure and may have better opportunities with alternatives, but that is yet to be seen. There is enough oil in this planet to easily get us to the next century. Not to say that staying with Oil is the wise course, it just entails fewer unknowns. As they say "the devil you know." The point, there is no alternative that offers the same "empire building" opportunity. It takes that size of opportunity to motivate people to sustain the level of risk that changes infrastructure. Oil companies understand this, which explains why they have not substantially shifted their investments. Governments understand this, which explains why they have not substantially shifted their economic policies. People understand this, that is why they bought increasingly larger and less fuel efficient vehicles between "oil crises." Logical? Americans are also getting heavier and less healthy as a result of their unnecessary weight gain. Is that logical? The good news is that Nature has a way of dealing with these things, so that we do not have to worry about them. Each of us, however, may wish to consider the personal impact.
A very interesting point, it would seem that the momentum of the cable and mobile industries have overtaken the fragmented broadcast TV businesses. See http://www.broadcastlawblog.com/2010/03/articles/broadband-report/fcc-national-broadband-plan-what-it-suggests-for-tv-broadcasters-spectrum/ for a more detailed explanation of how the FCC may squeeze the spectrum of broadcast TV, further marginalizing the whole idea. The article says that only 15% of Americans get their TV OTA, hardly a substantial political force. Depending on their progress you may be able to project when "over the air" TV goes off the air. My estimate would be 2020.
This was once a well known form of extortion, principally of small business owners. While it may still exist, this Internet version seems to have eclipsed it. Crime marches on.
Photons cannot escape because they are red-shifted due to time dilation. This means that the horizon will vary depending on the level of energy trying to escape it. For example, an X-ray might escape where an infra-red photon wouldn't. All or part of a huge energy blast may or may not escape, depending on its frequency, level and position. Whether it would affect the hole itself seems problematic.
After a quarter of a century, you would think that Windows would be so refined that you wouldn't need a 904-page, 3rd-party manual ($39.99). For those who want to peek under the hood, would the Windows 7 Resource Kit be better (http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Resource-Kit-Mitch-Tulloch/dp/0735627002)?
. . . are destine to lament for the "good old days." Ignorance is bliss, and when a few controlled the limited communication channels, you didn't hear about a lot of things. Things such as lynchings in the South, neighborhood rapes, police abuse of force, childhood abductions from poor families, and most indiscretions of the powerful. Now you hear about a lot more of it, as anyone with a video camera can become Edward R. Murrow. Most seem to be more like Jerry Springer, but taste aside, which do you prefer -- ignorance or spam? There is a downside to everything.

and Java ME. Just try to get an app certified, you may begin to appreciate iPhone or Android. BTW, phone companies want 70%, not 30%.

Flying is easy. Landing is a killer.

. . . we called them PROMs. If you have an original IBM PC, its BIOS was in PROM. I bet most PROMs still are readable.

You could cover a similar area in Spain and avoid some of the transmission loss. Spain could certainly use the business.

It violates my patent on stupid ideas.

Amazon recommends Fed-Ex for AWS -- http://newsletters.networkworld.com/t/4725748/258645701/111837/0/. They want the whole fucking storage unit, up to 50 pounds, and will return anything less.
If Garry Trudeau had put this into Doonesbury ("Duke's PR Coup"), his readers might have accused him of going too far off the deep end.
Actually, they are both dead, which is too bad. I loved their Road to Morocco. Needless to say, they both lived longer than Microsoft.
