    Just make sure to do this in a basement or make sure that the floor is structuraly capable of supporting the rack weight.

    this isn't an issue with most office building but I have seen several homes where the floor has bent under the weight of a rack.

  6. Re:If it evolves by replicating, it's life. on Should Science Rethink the Definition of "Life"? · · Score: 1

    I think a better way to put it is: Does it inherit traits when reproducing?

    In other words, fire may have the basic characteristics of life, but can you breed a race of tiny green fires, or is fire always dependent on it's fuel for traits?

    I would imagine all these things would make more sense if car theft didn't result in anyone losing a car.

    well, not any more.
    Now you have to be a nerd to enjoy the star wars prequels, or buy the re-re-re-re-re-mastered editions with the extra NOOOOOOOOOO!
    While Star trek is a blockbuster action flick.

  16. Re:China, don't get ahead of yourself. on Chinese Want To Capture an Asteroid · · Score: 1

    There will be a war eventually. The only question is will it be with themselves or with other governments.

    Or robots from the future perhaps. Both are just as likely.

  21. Re:If true... on Chinese Stealth Fighter Jet May Use US Technology · · Score: 1

    Its been "reported" that its a match for the F-22, but the fact is that it's only flown a handful of times in very limited envelopes. Theres really no way to tell what this aircraft is capable of and how good it's technology is.

    That applies to both planes though.

  22. First Hyrogen Fight? on Global Observer's First Hydrogen-Powered Flight · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't the first hydrogen powered flight be the Blimp?
