    maybe today, but job markets follow the laws of supply and demand just like anything else. what happens to the pay rates when you shift an entire economy to software?

  9. Re:Or not. on Russian Scientist Claims Signs of Life Spotted On Venus · · Score: 1

    I'm not saying i'm sold on his claim, but consider how much was overlooked by Viking that was later discovered by spirit and opportunity.

    also consider how many new species we've found on our own planet since then that had been previously over looked because they lived in an extreme environment.

    I'm taking a wait and see on this one.

  24. Re:Fracking vs Saltwater Disposal on Earthquakes That May Be Related To Fracking Close Ohio Oil Well · · Score: 3, Informative

    you can't pump it into just any formation.

    formations that contain fresh water or may migrate to such a formation are deemed off limits.

    even drilling through a freshwater formation is strickly controlled and requires additional layers of surface casing(pipe within pipe and concrete).

  25. Fracking vs Saltwater Disposal on Earthquakes That May Be Related To Fracking Close Ohio Oil Well · · Score: 4, Informative

    The media keeps mixing and confusing fracking with saltwater disposal wells. (remember how much they confuse hackers and crackers)

    Fracking is a one time process for increasing porosity of a formation immediately around the well at the time of completion.

    A saltwater disposal well is normally a well(oil or gas) that has played out and is used to return unwanted saltwater back where it came from.

    Fracking only affects an area within a few hundred feet of the well.
