now that it's been posted on slashdot watch all the trolls have fun with it. "Oops I did it again, F1R5T P0$T(@#&$*(&#!@# HAHA...." etc. Use your imagination I'm sure someone could come up with much more creative ones.
The diffrence between this and the moon is simple. It's more than just been there done that, we went to the moon proved it wasn't made of cheese after all, brought back (I believe) roughly 2000lbs of moon rock, there isn't a whole lot of new things we are going to learn. While the genome project has just started what we will be cappable of. This opens the doors for hundreds of new treatments for diseases, birth defects etc etc. Medical science is going to benifit an whole lot from this in the next 20 years. I can't wait!
I've always wondered what they would do in a situation like that. would they have seperate waves of bombs to go in? One set to break it up real good and another spread apart to get the peices that break off? Though I'm sure if we had enough time, say two years or more we could come up with a plan. Our country busted its ass to get on the moon before Kennedy's deadline, I'm sure the end of the world would make people work even harder:D
But I don't understand is why. There isn't anyone that needs to reach me bad enough that I would need one. Maybe that just reflects my outlook on life, heh. I dunno:)
There was something recently about this on MSNBC. What happened was a man kept trying to get jobs but was turned down repeatedly for jobs he was more than qualified for. When he called back to find out why they tell him anythign or they would just hang up. He got suspicious and hired someone to look into it, it turns out on his record I beleive there was a murder convivtion and a DUI, neither of them were his. What had happened was when the report on the original man was entered into the computer the social security number was mistyped. It was corrected at the source, eventually, but background check services get their records from police stations, put it into their databases for their searching and they also sell out their records to other companies. And they don't tell who they sold to, meaning if an error occours it can be next to impossible to get it corrected. Libel wouldn't be the case from the company she was turned down for because they purchased data that was public domain from one of these background services. So they aren't the ones with the misinformation, just the background check company. They need to get someone to look into it if it happens again, or now if they want.

I don't think they want to kill the astronauts. The government is already angry at M$, besides the DOJ, the Navy recently gave them a rating of "0" for performance. It's funny when your cable company's add/public access channel BSOD's but I don't think anyone wants to hear "Uhoh Blue Screen Of Death..." played over again on the news;)
From what i understand later releases of the mod code were better or they had fixed something about it in point release. crt of rocket arena fame (one of the most well known and most played mods for Q1 and Q2) had publicly flamed id when the mod code was first released (back in January i believe?) but in the latest announcement he showed a total 180 in his feelings on id's code release. His latest: The development for this has been much easier than the last, thanks to the Quake 3 engine. This really is a developer's dream come true. It's obvious Carmack has put a lot of thought into every part, and the entire mod community feels it.
Domain Name: coke.tv Current Bid: $4,000 / Year Next Minimum Bid: $4,100 / Year
That does say Year right? I was reading the agreement and stuff and they have to do the 2 years thing so really they are bidding $4000 a year, correct? I didn't read otherwise. Hopefully if many of them bid on these domains without checking first, so let them take a extra hit in the wallet.
I like to view with my threshold lower sometimes a really good post can slip through the cracks with a 0. I may just go compltely to 1, the past week has been absolutley a troll fest!!
If AC was done away with, all they would have to do is make some stupid fake account, with the only diffrence being they would have a name! Annonymous Coward is a good thing, we just have to find a solution to these silly trolling posts.
Dude you seriously have waaaaaaaay to much time on your hands **see below posts** Anyways on the subject of AOL it shows that AOL was subscribing the the thought of "If you can't beat em, join em'"

If it's anyoen it's China there have been rumors of China organizing a r337 squad of goons to use for internet based attacks... But honestly it probably would have been worse and much more destructive if it was them..

Time to bust out the ole VCR and all of you techophiles time to order those tiawanese DVD Recorders too...
(that would be kinda ironic too huh?)
and if justin jumped ship and made a new mp3 player i would assume everyone would probably jump ship with him eventually
Think of it this way also a 600Mhz chip will be _very_ cheap in 2001 so they can easily go for the ~$150 price range they are shooting for
