  1. Re:Could it be? on NASA Reports Vast Hydrogen Reserves in Earth's Crust · · Score: 2, Informative

    It makes more sense to use up the foreign supplies of oil before our own, then we will have oil and the rest of the world won't. What is the incentive to use our domestic reserves?

  2. out of print on Amazon & Used Books II: Bezos Strikes Back · · Score: 2, Insightful

    90% of the books I buy used are out of print!

  3. Writers on Amazon & Used Books II: Bezos Strikes Back · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Good god, I wonder if writers buy all their books new?

  4. paper tiger on CNN Says Chat Rooms Are a Haven for Hackers · · Score: 1

    It seems like the credit card thing is a paper tiger bandied about by corporate news sites to inspire fear in people about the internet. I don't know of anyone who has had credit card numbers stolen or traded on the internet. Usually card theft happens when people simply lose their cards(in meatspace).

    The most important thing is the quality of the troll.

  9. Re:dutch people on Kazaa Is Legal, Dutch Appeals Court Rules · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Jesus, calm the hell down. My grandfather (a dutch immigrant) used to joke about this as a German slur that was used against the dutch. Is humor against the law there?

  11. Re:Big deal on Amino Acids Created in Deep-Space-Like Environment · · Score: 0

    uh, the points still there. What would you be more impressed with, nasa's little carbon copy experiment which was demonstrated in the 50's with electric arcs, or someone actually synthesizing a biologically important protein from scratch, by any means.

  12. Re:Big deal on Amino Acids Created in Deep-Space-Like Environment · · Score: 0

    Thanks for your help. The point is the same with proteins.

  13. Big deal on Amino Acids Created in Deep-Space-Like Environment · · Score: 0

    Amino acids, so what? I will be excited when the explain how amino acids assemble themselves into something as complex as DNA.

  21. Re:don't waste your time on C · · Score: 0

    The think that sux about rox books is the lifeless faces of the authors that stare back at you. There is a guy at work here who actually put a cover on the book so he doesn't have to see them. I'd rather see a yak or something than those jerks!

  22. don't waste your time on C · · Score: -1, Troll

    Why waste your time when you can buy the Kernighan & Ritchie book?
