Often the only difference between natural and human-created types of radiation is that the artificial stuff is modulated to achieve a particular behaviour or characteristic amidst the din of natural "noise". So, addressing your comment: assuming that animals will also hate a future full of all the pre-existing, natural sources of IR, ultrasound, magnetics, light, and other frequencies that already may be doing them harm, there won't be much difference.
The "Minority Report" airborne desktop may seem the coolest future use, but it is only one potential future. The potential benefit to consumers may be biggest on new control devices that reduce or eliminate hazards of burning, electrocution, scalding, etc. caused previously by direct handling of items by clumsier, manual means. To me this risk reduction capability is far more likely, and far more beneficial, than what was seen on Minority Report.
I know I worry all the time about some kid at Space Camp flipping the wrong switch and starting a terrifying chain of events, but have you ever noticed how there is no space between the words in the title of the documentary they made about it? Get it: NO SPACE! There's your first hint that it was all staged, like Neil Armstrong and the Capricorn One landing.
The color code that signifies that all Americans are to be on the lookout for aggrieved ladies trying to ram their cars onto public property. Shoot to kill.
While the Dem leadership are in constant contact with their media operatives, Ted Nugent is out ripping open animals with his bare hands and can't be contacted.
The headline implies more than one investor. What you infer from the title is due to your own thought processes, which apparently caused you to be mislead. This isn't about the count of investors agitating for the change, but rather the influence they wield, as covered quite well by others in this thread.
I would do it but I don't want to have to go through the elaborate, horrible hazing rituals to which I've heard all new Slashdot editors are subjected.
You are making my point for me. I've had this idea for a Geek/Nerd Obituary resource for quite some time, and I have yet to find a suitable one on the web. Wikipedia isn't really set up in such a way.

Hmmmm... for some reason my translator circuitry is overheating. Does the new Slashdot Beta layout handle UTF-8 properly?

I could, but I don't want to. See, I'm being selfish, which is supposedly virtuous, right?
It would be news if it was on the front page of the National Enquirer with a headline like "Your Favorite Book Tells Your Personality!"
You haven't read Ayn Rand then.
The point was "Was there a point to your quote?"
So it's really just a matter of your own taste then. Okay, fair enough, but what are we supposed to do with that information, buzzkill?
Also please post some speed tests from these sites:

Don't forget to run more than one test on each to get a better sample.
Their ISP sent them to the Feds. So, no help forthcoming from them.
Two names guaranteed to start /. modding wars: Bill Gates and Ayn Rand.
Some of us enjoyed them both.
But that's not the point of the quote.
Exactly. Let's see some logs, please, and let's have some detailed descriptions of your gear so that we can make more than just guesses.
For parroting something that someone else thought of?
So in your mind nobody should ever share great quotes? Thanks, buzzkill.

Do you still get the T-shirt?
What an amazing coincidence that shots were fired at the exact same time in both the Capitol and the capital! Who knew?
You keep saying that.

Fox Snooze was just waiting for Ted Nugent to get back to them first with what they should say about it.

If there were to be a no-Gates Microsoft aftermath, I propose a debate tour: Gates vs. RMS, 10 universities.
