If you have access to Dell's Premiere site (for businesses) you can order a Precision M6400 laptop with a 64 bit OS and 16 GB of RAM. This turns into an $8,000 laptop, but who's counting $s anyway?
I thought the music for pr0n should have been more of the "bow chicka wow mow" variety. Maybe a few grunts and screams and an "Oh baby!" for good measure.

11,251,828 Total CRIMES
1,408,337 Violent (seperate from murders)
16,929 Murders (not included in violent)
855,856 Aggrivated Assault - a reckless attack with intent to injure seriously (as with a deadly weapon)

I had 6 wisdom teeth. My dentist stongly suggested I have them removed as there would not be enough space in my face for them. I felt obliged to comply.
Although I have no real data to back it up, I sincerely doubt that presence of these tiles would result in a significant increase in fuel consumption. See the reply to hansamurai above.
The forklifts are driving hither and yon and burning fuel regardless of the presence of these tiles. Having the tiles in high traffic locations would generate some electricity.
The limited amount of information I've read regarding these tiles has not mentioned the distance they must travel for electricity to be generated. However, since they have to operate without impeding foot traffic, I suspect the distance is minimal. Certainly no more than an inch. If the tile was 1 inch above the level of the floor when uncompressed and dropped to that level when compressed, I suspect that something weighing 10,000 - 12,000 lbs with 20+ inch tires would have enough momentum to depress the tile with a very minimal increase in fuel consumption. Taking into consideration the miserable condition of the floors in the plant and the surrounding exterior locations of forklift travel, 1 inch is of little significance.
There are forklifts driving back and forth on the production floor here at my place of work. If those 10,000 lb forklifts carrying 2,000 lb loads were driving over piezoelectric energy generating floors, how much energy could be harnessed? Certainly not enough to offset the cost in the short term, which is the only term my employer seems to comprehend.
5.11 targets most of their products for law enforcement and other para-military usage. I receive email and catalogs from them frequently. Since I'm no longer in a law enforcement/para-military line of work, I can't justify buying all the nifty stuff they offer.
How do you figure? Voter registration in this state is supposed to transfer with a license renewal. Also, I had no issue voting at this pole location in '06.
I showed up to vote at 6:00 am. After waiting in line for 45 minutes I found that my voter registration is still tied to an old address and I had to go to a different county to vote. The other county is in a different Congressional district, so I didn't get to vote for my Congressman. I didn't get to vote for any of my elected county officials, either.
Oh, and I got a speeding ticket while driving around in unfamiliar locations while searching for the correct place to vote.
Help, help, I'm being repressed!
Thank you for the link! I have now RTFA and my suspicions fell short. Microsoft is clearly in league with the devil. Removing the functional (I assume) Linux boxen for Windows machines (Now packed with Extra Failure!) is pretty damned crappy. I wonder if Microsoft handed out blankets with smallpox while there were at it.

UK Crimes
In 2007 there were:
60,975,000 - Total Population (estimate)
1,045,369 Violence crimes
621,958 Burglaries
3,810,971 Total Crimes
This gives a 1.7% violent crime rate (1,045,369/60,975,000)

So the UK has a crime rate roughly 3.61 times worse than the US in violent crime rates.
Does fear of being shot deter criminals in the U.S.? Are citizens of the U.K. better at reporting crimes?

Nice try oahazmatt, but you rolled a 1 on your bluff attempt!
Is it possible to read the entire story without subscribing to the Wall Street Journal? How am I supposed to RTFA if I don't have a subscription?
