I made a little two row table, and busted it out by hand. After about 3 minutes, I was filling in faster than I could work the table. I imagine it's how ancient crypto's felt when they teased out "Ceasar attacks at dove" and then realized they'd injected an error. What is a Biggs Hoson?
I just love the TSA. They sent my CAC card back through the X-ray machine, all alone, in the little tray. It was in my wallet and had set off a wand. For those of you unfamiliar with the CAC, it's a MILITARY I.D. Card that tells people you're in the Armed Services. It has a little 'not-so-smart' metal chip and card-reader plate. Seeing my I.D. card take it's lonely journey through the x-ray machine brought tears to my eyes. Tears of laughter. And that laughter hurt them more than any indignation I might have shown.
Finally another use for the Hughes Glomar Explorer, a ship built in the 70's under the guise of underwater mining but actully used by the CIA to raise a sunken sub. My daily dose of Irony is now complete.
When I was younger, we'd explore the old 1800's silver mines at Alta, Utah. When the old miners hit a fault line (underground), they'd span out and mine that fault for all it was worth. It was pretty neat for us finding a rock face perfectly smooth and straight (the fault), that had been stoped out a hundred years ago, miles underground. It was like going back in time. In hindsight, it was probably dangerous... Ah, youth.
As an amatuer radio operator, I'd love to take up the slack and do comms for them. Get enough of us, and we can provide global support, free of charge, and would be honored to do it! There *may* be some coverage holes in the south Pacific...
This concept is very much like HMSS ad-hock mesh networks used in ham radio. Self-discovering, auto-configuration, and self-healing. Except we use old linksys routers, instead of cell phones, and operate under different FCC rules. YMMV
When the U.S. sent chimps into space (Ham, Enos) it was to test the effects of weightlessness on a living body, because scientists really thought that it might harm humans. Therefore, test on a chimp first to see if it's safe for man. So why start a new program at the bottom? Why not design a man-rated system from the get-go? The science is proven, if all you're after is political mileage, man-up and send a man up.
How is an advantage on price "unfair"? Build a better mousetrap, for a lower cost, and people will buy it. Also, please enlighten us on the correlation between CMMI accred and quality. Perhaps they have a lower price specifically because they don't play by those types of rules in their organization...
Competition always brings out the best (or worst) in any Endeavour. Single-source-vendor vs. multiple vendors for heavy lift into LEO or Async? Hmm....
Hah, I'd bet you a stick of Beemans that the person in the back seat was flying it. Maybe just not for the take-off and landing (due to decreased visibility from the back seat)...
Why not build it together, with your child. The experience of putting something together and making it work will far exceed any other expectations you may have.

I fail to believe that Windows 8 has a gas pedal. It just has brakes on the left and right.
Please someone explain how Twitter is a commodity. It it like *bitcoin* ?

So, Time to Say Goodnight ? I keed, I keed.
We apologise for the fault in the database. Those responsible have been sacked.

How hard would it have been to make some of them green? If I were in Afghanistan again, I'd want a Green Hornet.

Having flown on C-5's several times, I concur!

Mega Corporation Money Grab in 3 - 2 - 1. Just in time for the holiday sales rush! I bet this whole thing will jusr go away for X-amount of dollars.

As long as they don't all have the surname "Fett"...
Plenty of letters left in the alphabet...
As God is my witness, I thought WKRP syndication would fly.

Perhaps subby was trying to make a comparison to another over-valued corp. Aka, Facebook?
Yes. I can also hear Blue Oyster Cult playing "don't fear the reaper" in my head. M-O-O-N, that spells bad idea, laws yes
The shroud of the Dark Side has fallen. Begun, the Patent War has! (You can decide which side is which...)
