  1. Re:my library experience on Carnegie Mellon's Digital Library Exceeds 1.5 Million Books · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I've seen this story on slashdot before.

  2. Re:There isnt a great collection there really on Carnegie Mellon's Digital Library Exceeds 1.5 Million Books · · Score: 1

    You bring up somehting important. I saw mostly chinese and indian texts in that online library, not to mention that it takes some stupid plugin. As a result, that online library and anything like it will forever remain useless for most people. WE can borrow a book from a public library for free, so why can't you read good online books for free? disney:( sonny bono:( We need copyright reform.

  3. Personalized genetic enginering? Bioshock? on Two Companies Now Offering Personal Gene Sequencing · · Score: 1

    Will this bring genetic engineering 1 step closer to public access? Will the public eventually be able to order customized genes for the expression of desirable physical features? I think this would be pretty cool. Or could it be like the distopian city Rapture in Bioshock where mutant splicers running amock? Or will government regulation stifle it?
