I thought innovation was what the Big Corporations
did after the patent's ran out.
Take the case of the X-Y-Box (the first mouse)
it was patented in the 60's. and low and behold
on the 80's we got GUI's with mice. makes one think. Is this kind innovation setting us back
20 or 30 years.
Sum the ages of a set of gamers
and divide by the number of gamers

I admit you may be asking for more analysis.
or more data.
But the average is the first order of what
you are asking. there is more data if you read the paper.
One of the problems in the USA, where I live,
is that to few people know even basic math.
Tell me... What is the TV of the future.
With time shifting like Tivo, and TV on demand
like Hulu and Netflicks, there will be more.
Who is going to watch live TV.
Hulu and Netflicks all ready have monitoring,
not as intrusive as TV watching you.
Netflicks knows what you watch.
If you want the Hulu queue you also
give up that info. So the list of what you
watch is already out there. Even with out the Queue your IP address can be used.
In 20 years people will not be watching live TV.
I also do not think broadcasters will be getting
away with the Voyeur TV set.
You both are correct.
The new Phone needs to be like
Unfortunately email was developed
as a university ( MIT ) where people shared software and protocols.
Now things like this are called IP and
hidden away. and if you figure them out and
use them for the common good is called
Piracy, and a cause for litigation.
So I conclude that without goverement
support, say DARPA, wo will not be seeing
any open IP phone systems in our life time.
It makes me sad that most people
do not understand how computing
is being set back, in this day and age.
The only viable solution at this time is
the GNU. Thank you Richard.
PS. Let them just call it Linux.
Pick the fights worth fighting.
" A 2005 report by the International Atomic Energy Agency discusses potential benefits along with the challenges of thorium reactors.[23] According to Australian science writer Tim Dean, "thorium promises what uranium never delivered: abundant, safe and clean energy â" and a way to burn up old radioactive waste."
You Have to blame the Japanese government
and power plant management for not replacing
the Fukushima power reactors. We simply can not
expect solar and wind to fill our power needs.
Even if we do all that is possible to conserve power. and switch to electric power cars.
we will need to at least double the electric
power plants to keep everything running.
The last thing we want is more coal and
gas plants. This defeats many of the advantages
of getting off the petroleum in our cars.
If you used a valid "Lab Notebook" stile,
where each page is dated, notes are in ink
and all non used space was boxed and 'X'ed out,
so that new stuff can not be added in.
You might have a chance.
Lets say you write a WEblog, on an article
you saw on NASA's site. You want people to see it
sure, you post it on/. Great, we all get to see some stuff about the Asteroid.
NASA seems to not be all into the promotion thing.
So its not going out of its way to post this on/.
So I ask you, Did you liked seeing the info about
the asteroid on/. ? If not just move on.
If you like it you should be thanking coondoggie
for posting his WEblog. He posted the NASA link
in the first few lines of the article. SO we get both A link on/. and a link to the NASA source.
So you see CmdrTaco also the right thing!
If he bypassed coondoggie then there would be
no reason for coondoggie to post to/. in the first point.
When I e-mail friends about stuff I see on/.
I send the/. link. I do not by pass it.
One of my friends replys to all, "Oh, I get it
here is the link" and he sends the by pass link.
Do you see?
PS. I have mod points, I did not use'em.
I wanted to tell you about your error.
So I saved your karma. Did I do the right thing?
You will not see all the colors, since the light
in the Image was collected over time.
None the less it looks just like that.
You have to go to a place without light pollution.
Then you have to let your eyes acclimate in the dark for 20 to 30 minutes.
Of course the quality of your eye sight
will factor in.
It not Unique. Its perhaps unremarkable.
Sales staff try to impress, but fail by miss use
of the language.
I made feathering return flying rockets
when I was a kid. True, it weighted less then
one pound, did not have people as payload, and
did not goto space. But It used feathering none
the less.
Its is a nice amusment ride to be sure!
The SpaceShipOne and SpaceShipTwo can use
feathering due to the fact that they go so slow. Now if they managed to get to orbital velocity
feathering as is would not work.
I am not about to say some other
method perhaps called feathering could work.
Given how much faster you need to go to get
to orbital velocity, it's no wounder NASA
and others use a heat shield. Air-breaking
is a cheap and effective way to slow down
from a much greater speeds.
And you missed the point I am not talking about
the X Windowing System. I am talking about
Apple Computers. Where the Apple, does not
want Flash to run.

More over Mars has a CO2 atmosphere. Also on Mars is Magnesium that will burn in a CO2 atmosphere.
You move CO2 and processed Metals that will burn in the presence of CO2 in to orbit. And you have a refueling station.
Given robots go first and make fuel lift it with to a space station for refueling. This way we get the fuel on sight, out of the gravity well. This fuel can be used for landing, blastoff and return. Getting the mass of the fuel, on site and all set up, before we commit people to the flight. This is simply good economy, and safety.
One of the plans for the mission to Mars is to make
the fuel on Mars, from the soil there. The chemistry has been tested on earth. The original plan was to put men on Mars and make the return fuel then, while some 300-500 days pass while the earth comes back around for the return fight window.
Given robots go first and make
fuel why not lift it with to a space station for refueling. This way we get the fuel on sight, out of the gravity well. This fuel can be used for landing, blastoff and return.

I see some people have also discovered that

You know who is doing this to people.
"X is also not on the Internet due to the requirement of Flash".
But take note that Google payed for the bandwidth

and why you might have to think hard about not
voting with your dollars for the people that would
fracture the Internet.

But Just think about the hornets nest in the lobbyist hallway. lol. To bad! FOSS is the way to go.

3)So You Sue, you pay more and perhaps something good happens. Good luck.
