It has nothing to do with timezones and everything to do with distance. Boats powered by magazine editors have only now reached Australia, but since we have the internet we learned of their arrival at the same time they arrived. It makes perfect sense.
In the introductory classes I took they taught us Java and glanced over C. Now I am taking more advanced classes and find myself wondering why they taught us Java and not C since in many cases the class is designed to be done in C. Thus it would have been useful to have been taught C, though I can see why they would want to teach us Java, if we never use it in our later classes it seems to be a waste.
Arguments of character building aside, why should I accept being called a "fag", ever? How is this acceptable in a polite society? I think that the problem is that people do not view MMOs as a part of polite society but as a place where anything goes. Because it is for the most part anonymous people feel that they can push the bounds of what is acceptable, it will probably be a long time until society establishes and accepts a set of shared beliefs and views on what the "correct" attitude in MMOs is. I suspect that such a fundamental code of conduct, that is a unwritten understood code, will not happen for a little while because the current generation of teenagers and impolite gamers will need to grow up first.
True, it did take a while. But I'd like to think it was worth the wait. Also, for those who care, here is a link to the Stanford page http://einstein.stanford.edu/ it has the same info as the article along with more stuff about the project.

For the most part ..... yes. Though realistically only for the most sensational.

Well, this is certainly unusual. Slashdot saving a marriage......

Yes, but are they NetBeans?
