    What if the simple act of looking for/at something http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle#Uncertainty_principle_and_observer_effect is creating more of the universe the farther we look?

    The universe could be much much younger than anybody thinks.

    FTA (Shock I read it!) - Might want to RTFA before you try to bring a joke down with math.

    But there’s more. Because clusters are so big and bright, they can be seen really far away. In space, distance means time; the farther away we see an object, the younger the Universe was when the light left that object. In the case of this newly found cluster, the light we see left it 9.6 billion years ago — making it 400 million light years farther away than the next-most distant cluster ever seen. The Universe itself is only 13.7 billion years old, so we’re seeing this structure as it was not too long after it formed.

    Al Gore created the Internet, so why shouldn't they have control over it?

    More to the point, a very small number of individuals at Al Gore created the Internet, so why shouldn't they have control over it?

    In fact, only some PARTS of those Al Gore created the Internet, so why shouldn't those parts have control over it?

    But wait, Al Gore created the Internet, so why shouldn't Al Gore all have control over it?

    Why exactly are you picking one particular level of abstraction out of the infinite multitude of possible ones and declaring that it is the only one that we should all pay attention to? What makes the nation-state your entity-of-choice with regard to causal efficacy and moral supremacy? It seems pretty arbitrary to me.

    The Rules of TLA's (Three Letter Acronym's)
    Rule 1: There shall always be three letters otherwise it would be a Two Letter Acronym and it would get confusing.
    Just like IT or IS IT it? Rule 2; If the TLA is made from two words then use the CamelHump Style for the third letter (CHS)
    Rule 3: Requires a obligatory Wikipedia link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downloadable_content
    Rule 4: There can't be a rule four because it can only have three letters.

    If "downloadable" is one word, shouldn't it be DC?

    Don't blame the vendor, blame the users that support the lock-in by supporting the vendor. Without them the vendor would be forced to change or go out of business.

    Blame the vendor, My WinMo runs Skype just fine on 3g. Has for quite awhile.
    Funny thing, WinMo being more open than i(insert device)
