    Well as long as it's not today. We're having Sloppy Joes for dinner and I wouldn't want to miss out on that.

    Looking up the EFF on wiki and following some links I came upon past legal actions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_and_the_Internet#Notable_legal_actions

    until an actual dolphin tries to mate with you. Then you'll just have to break it's poor heart.

  6. What backs the guaranty? on Sony Guarantees Playstation "Home" Launch Before 2009 · · Score: 2, Funny

    So he just threw the guaranty out there but didn't back it with anything. What happens if they don't release it in time? SO what would you like to see as a penalty? I say go old school and have him eat a hat.

  7. Re:Rare? on Solar Systems Like Ours Are Likely To Be Rare · · Score: 1

    The moon is acutally moving away from the earth. As it moves away, it slows the rotation of the earth. Though you are right on the time scale of the process.

    If this indeed happens and gas giants move into the inner system and wipe out rocky planets then I think there would be a large future market in taking people to to watch it. That has to be some show to see a planet sallowed by a gas giant. I would imagine that the planet would break apart when it gets close enough for tidal forces to become powerful. Another point is that if the time frame for this is billions of years, there's plenty of time for intelligent life to evolve before being destroyed by gas giants.

  9. Re:first post on Solar Systems Like Ours Are Likely To Be Rare · · Score: 1

    I thought the reason for finding large planets near to stars is that their mass and distance from their sun makes them easy to spot by watching the wobble of the sun. This might just be a case of filtering the data due to the limitations of the methods.

  10. Re:When will people learn?!?!?! on Hot Water, Hot Earth · · Score: 1

    What nature does is not always beneficial to us. I would wager that most of Earth's history would have been inhospitable to us and much more of the future would be unless we change it. Now of course I'm talking about very large time scales but even in the short term there can be large natural variations. Now I'm for being a responsible society but we must also be reasonable.
