I'm wondering why the talk about a bat other than Com-bat sounds like a killer name. Wouldn't be more stealthy to have a three-toed sloth slowly moving through the trees. Nobody would suspect it... except maybe when spotted in Iran.
Personally, I'd go for the Sea Gull. It survives everywhere in the world, blends in during the day to the billion others, and hits its target almost everytime!
So what we are all excited about is that we might be able to run our country on crap coming from single-cell, brainless, parasitic, life-forms... Isn't that by exactly how we have been running this country for 200 years. It's not called Ethanol. Its called Congress.
Since the shape is really what they are trying after and since none of them can claim inheritance of the Pyramids, I claim dibs on the wheel. One of my ancestors came up with the idea, but of course, 5,000 years ago they didn't have copyright options either. So now, I want some money from everyone that makes anything related to shape or function of a wheel.
Dude, if these buggers can be hacked and RF to communicate and upload code that can influence organs and glands in the body, I could envision a wireless device that would bring about the right response when you get to the bar and find that amazingly hot babe. Just imagine, the worst pickup line is only used to provide enough time to upload the code and release the chemicals in her body. You can continue this thought and potential...
This is where you are missing the point. The constant Apple chant is that they will within years push MS aside as they dominate the world. Rather than being satistified with the user they have, everytime there is the slightest increase in user percentage in any category, you see ballons being released and fireworks going off. I hear many Mac users talking proudly that Apple will someday be the dominate OS. This post is not relevant today, but what are Apple users really promoting and what do they want to see 10 years from now. This is very relevant! How can you promote one company over the other when accusing one company of monopolistic tactics when the company you promote is even more monopolistic. Pot calling the kettle....
I personally just love it when avid Apple user chime in on a Microsoft monopoly issue. Please explain this to me. If Apple continues it method of marketing (which for most all of its products is extremely closed...you must buy their OS AND hardware or their iPod AND their iTunes or their phone AND the service with it), what would we all be saying if Apple had a 95% market share today? Wouldn't it be extremely monolopolistic and be taken to court as no OS or other hardware manufacturer could compete in that market AT ALL!!! At least Microsoft doesn't block other broswers from working and has an open market for CPU and hardware AND you can load other OS on the hardware that you don't have to buy from MS.
Don't you think that Apple will continue its marketing scheme? What if we lived in an alternate reality where Apple was 95% of the market? Don't you think they would be accused of the same thing but even more so? Stop your envy of market share Apple!!! You're no better in the way you do business.

We all know that this will actually work. We don't have to worry about drug resistence in disease because resistence is futile!
