I remember reading about that in high school, and thinking it would be so much fun to do (or coordinate). Alas, I could never find that many active instances of it.

I'm sorry, but what's the point in biking across Canada while reading Sci-Fi? Aren't you supposed to be taking in the scenery?:)
Regardless of the sotrage medium, at some point the sound of the music has to be released into the air so my ears can hear it.
While it's true that the keys can expire, so that the music would not be playable if you recorded the wav back onto one of these devices, a corallary use would be to track you down. For instance, if you shared this.wav on napster, or streamed it through shoutcast, the RIAA would be able to trace this specific file back to you, and sue you for the "millions" of lost profits.
While this isn't terribly efficient of the RIAA in getting cash, it will be effective in slowing down the average joe once they see 200 arrests of those evil mp3 sharers.
And one point: I totally agree with the RIAA that duplicates of these songs should not be given away for free. That's wrong, no matter how the RIAA is treating the artists. I completely disagree with the idea of buying a "license" of my music, however, and the concept of expiring music really ticks me off.
Ok, so it's the most resistant life form in the known universe to radiation. That's nice, and I don't mean to sound too alarmist, but what happens when you unleash 5 billion of these things on a highly radioactive site? At least a few hundred mutations are going to occur, what then?
He's talking from the context of a Big Brother listening to your e-mail. If you recieve a spam that they don't see anyone else getting, they will run it through just to double check.
I have my doubts that a heat-sensing video camera would be able to see much heat in a whiteout. I would think that the snow would absorb an increadible amount of that radiation.
Heck, if they could I suspect there are companies who'd love to have CDs that would intentionally become unreadable after a short time
For the life of me I can't find it (anyone?), but Slashdot earlier this year ran a story about new "rental" disks that had an added layer which became opaque while watching the movie. Woohoo. Divx.
Where do you get the 2000 figure? I had heard from the lady in charge of the ballots in Florida that there were no printing errors in the democratic paperwork, and that she would have given the same chance to democrats, had they needed it.
Whatever happened to Gore's "Every vote must count!"? I mean, hey, all they were missing was the VID #, it's not like they were changing anything.
this painting, and this one, located at this site:
The following passage was translated from Egyptian hieroglyphics dating back to the 15th century BC...
"A circle of fire coming in the sky, noiceless, one rod long with its body and one rod wide. After some days these things became more numerous, shining more than the brightness of the sun."
Well, I tried to paste it, but couldn't get it to work out in fixed-width font. The link to the author is here, and he explains how he came up with it.
As you can see, it is all an illusion spawned by centripetal force. Centrifugal force is just a name for an apparent byproduct that the layman latches onto due to lack of understanding.
Scroll down past all the math, and watch the roll of tape slide on the dash. Very illustrative.

Haven't you seen the advertisement for the nano-driven Playstation 9?!? It's got to be the coolest thing ever. And it's driven by nanites.o n2-the-beginning.html

I swear, that's what I read before clicking on the link. Would have been a bit more interesting.

I want the Playstation 9!!!

"There is no movie, there is nothing to be seen," Perry said.
...said researcher Patrick Nolan, "But we are watching it," he said.
So, like, she can see transparencies everywhere? Heck, not even IE can do that.
Wow, hadn't heard of the South Atlantic Anomaly before... Here's a great link about it: http://www.ll.mit.edu/ST/sbv/saa.html
Hope it survive's Slashdot's mungling.
Oh yeah, well I patent a card that has a sticker which is removed automatically when it is opened. How's THAT for ease of use?

Very interesting reading on maze theory.
Now that truely is sick. Who would want someone's fingers and toes?!?
ARGH, thank's slashdot. You'll have to cut/past it. http://www.icsd.k12.ny.us/highschool/swirt/science /physics/lesson/03circ/centrif/centr.htm l
And of course it's adding another space after the last l. Hmph.

The Bible is true! So there!
Nothing more needs to be said.
Langorious Sigh.
Sun has an ad campaign of "We are the DOT in DOT COM".
They already have .COM, don't they??
