The place I used to work at (Tsukuba Magnet Laboratory) used to have the world record for the strongest continuous magnet field, peaking at 37.3T - I didn't realise somebody had beaten that.
So he explained this to the VP and the VP went and reamed out the system administrators who'd been slacking off on their maintenance of the spam filters, right?
That doesn't mean it more freely radiates it away at the same wavelength. The whole thing about true black-body radiation is that the spectrum of the radiation is continuous, and depends only upon the temperature of the black body.
Look down a bit further. Stuff like the ImageDescription, UserComments, DateTime and GPS coordinate tags look to be suitable. Not to mention that ImageDescription and UserComments can be of arbitrary length, which means you could pack some formatted data in there if you like.
Since you're so good at quoting law, perhaps you'd like to quote the one where police officers are allowed to hand out arbitrary and excessive punishment for minor infractions.
It already works, at least mostly (and assuming/. doesn't fuck up that URL).

A climate physicist... and an economist? Who just happen to have a new book out that will explain, for a mere $24.95, how they're the only people who have figured this out?
Police have the power of arrest, but it (a) doesn't justify anything more than reasonable force and (b) doesn't empower police officers to convict and sentence offenders.
Whether or not they were justified in ejecting him from the library, there's no justification for using unreasonable force to make someone comply with their orders, especially when their orders basically consist of telling him to leave when he was already doing that - but hey, I guess he was a potential terrorist, right?
Perhaps you forgot, but police don't convict people, only arrest them. Whether he would have been found guilty for trespassing in an area where he was allowed to be (he just didn't have his ID on him - "comrade, show us your papers or prepare to be tased!") is debatable, to say the least.
Er... so why do they need to tase him five times? Since after the first time he was just sitting there, not "acting violently", they could have just got another couple of cops, grabbed him by the arms and legs, and moved him out of the library. I don't know what you think taser training is like, but I'm willing to bet they're not supposed to use it as a cattle prod - it's there to subdue a violent subject, not force him to do everything you tell him to do.
Please don't lump bnetd in with those other pieces of shit - it had a legitimate reason for existing (hosting networked games outside Battlenet), didn't interfere with the operation of Blizzard's servers, and used only reverse engineering to determine the format of on-the-wire messages. If you're saying a company should have the right to shut down any little guy they don't like, then I hope one day you get buried by some freewheeling corp.

That is the single most hilarious fucking video I have ever seen about a computer game.
So that would be some pink-haired gnome meat for my cannon, then.

No, it was a Japanese URL that Slashcode decided it didn't recognise inside an a tag and thus converted to a local URL.
Try it and see.
Yes, it's irredeemably broken.
Why, yes, and they're described in section 4.6 of the EXIF specification.
Since you're so good at quoting law, perhaps you'd like to quote the one where police officers are allowed to hand out arbitrary and excessive punishment for minor infractions.
Stupid even for a troll.
...which should have appeared correctly in Japanese if Slashcode didn't fuck with it...
Works in Firefox right now. I can type http:///#35501;&%2322770;.jp in the address bar and I get redirected to http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/ just fine.
Which it did. Well done, Slashcode.

Come on, you can do better than that.
Other Republicans?

You're the one who made the same statement in two places...
Yeah, except half the time they killed too many mice and the other half of the time they killed too few.
Hey, it all balanced out in the end, so I guess the project was a success!
You keep on saying that, but how does "I don't have my ID" translate into "I'm a convicted trespasser and deserve to be tased"?

Except I posted the very same link right here on /. two days ago.
Shit, if I'd known there was enough interest for a whole story on it, I would have submitted it.
