Yep. I can already hear the politicians turning out their pockets and saying we're broke. Ok, now for the military and war budget. Lets just cut them another blank check.
The BIG problem is that the military industrial complex is NOT in the space race anymore. Instead they're busy making new war toys (rail guns and scout drones) and urban pacification tech (sonic and microwave machines that really hurt but don't kill).
If Kim Jong Il, Osama Bin Laden, and Cobra Commander launched a terrorist nuclear strike from their moonbase then I can guarantee the space race would back on. It's because threat has higher priority to the political and public psyche.
What kind of environmental impact would that make? I remember hearing hydroelectric power being a green source of energy but the dams wreak havoc on the local ecology.
But does it have a tweezers, toothpick, corkscrew, can opener, bottle opener,.flat-head screwdriver, phillips-head screwdriver, nail file, scissors, saw, file, hook, magnifying glass, ballpoint pen, fish scaler, hex wrench w/bits, pliers, and key chain? Also... it is HD ready?
Incompetent financiers? Honestly, what kind of madman would crack open their checkbook for 3Drealms after seeing their derailed track record. They were totally self financed.
Wasn't there speculation that Twitter was going to be bought out by Facebook awhile ago(thought there was an article here on Slashdot)? I haven't ever used Twitter but that just seems like a perfect match that would serve both companies well in the long term.
But how is Twitter compatible with Apple? Unless there is going to be some sort of exclusive iPhone app.
I know EXACTLY how you feel since I am currently teaching English to elementary students (1-6) in S Korea. I'm trying to teach phonics, vocabulary, grammar, and conversational english; all at the same time.
And through talking with other English teachers in the TaLK (Teach and Learn Korea) program I've figured out that entertaining teachers simply are the better solution for a younger crowd. Its because they're just kids and they'll just zone out if you speak only english while teaching the mechanics of grammar.
Yes, that's something of a minor problem with Blizzard. Although they never push out a game before its ready (like Age of Conan). On the other hand, taking a very long time making a game is a) going to be expensive and b) the technology to play on is constantly changing. And when you've finally put the product on the street, there's still no guarantee that it'll be a success.
That said, I'm going to buy SC2
Sweet!
I want a virtual tombstone with a virtual ghost that annoys virtually everyone to AVENGE ME.
Wait, its not a facebook app? Screw it, i'm too lazy.
Self Regulation is usually the last resort of an interest group that is seeking to avoid the hassle and constrictions of government legislation. Its usually a stalling tactic but it sometimes works. I believe its how the MPAA was formed since its not a government organizations (If it was it'd likely fall under the wing of the FCC).

Yes! More jiggly physics! We won't be happy until it reaches BEYOND realism!

Don't forget, Cobra Commander tried it too.

Who Trusts Online Gambling Anyways? Quite honestly I think the gov is just worried that online gambling may be a simplified way of laundering money.
I don't pay items and gear. I win and earn them. .... Or I use a stolen credit card number
Don't use doves! It scares the martians.
Anthropologists will be tickling all sorts and varieties of monkeys, apes, primates, and every other mammal just to see if they giggle too.
Another reason for police dogs to bark at my car.

That said, there are some times when I am very glad to have a physical store to go to.
To buy blank DVDs and burn more pirated stuff. Oops, did I say that?
"When did we put on yellow lens filters on the cameras?" "We didn't"
We've DECLOAKED!!! If only we had used anti-virus software. Noooooo!!! *kaboom*
Nuts. You beat me to the joke.
I think Blood and Blood II were also on the same game engine. That game was awesome. Countless hours played on multiplayer.

Invisibly thin razor wire for guerrilla warfare. And plenty other applications for an ultra durable flexible material.

Exactly! "Ask not. Want not" Leave me alone!
300 Billion taxpayer dollars?!? Do they transform into giant robots?
