Okay, I wasn't impressed at all with F9/11. I felt that it was a selective set of facts loosely assembled in such a way as to make the Bush administration look bad. It was almost purely a propaganda piece.
Celsius whateveritis looks like an attempt to do the same thing in reverse. They've selectively assembled a bunch of facts to make President Bush look good and to make Michael Moore look bad. So basically, another propaganda piece trying to rebut the first.
My recommendation is to do your homework, find your own facts, and draw your own conclusions. Don't listen to a bunch of blowhard filmmakers about who you should vote for.
If they're pushing their live rebuttals to the convervative blogs, doesn't that mean that they'll only be going out to the conservative base? I think it would be more effective if they could find a way to get this on one of the mainstream news sites like CNN.
Not entirely. The first Mercury flights were suborbital. The later orbital flights by Glenn and his colleagues were launched using a more powerful booster than the one that launched Sheppard.
Rutan has said that this design is scalable. With a larger lift craft and larger/more powerful rockets, he should be able to put together a craft along the same lines that achieves orbit. In the meantime, the suborbital flights are a step in the right direction, especially with commercial service starting soon courtesy of Mr. Branson. Rutan has shown a great deal of patience in validating each part of the Spaceship One system before proceeding to the next. After the X prize flights, the sky is - literally - the limit.
Didn't Carter endorse the last Cuban election as a model of fairness? I seem to remember something to that effect a few years ago. I guess it was fair, after all, there was only one candidate for president.
Last I checked, most big budget movies run into the $100 million range. If the Indians can put a man on the moon for less than it cost to make Spielberg's last flick, then I'm seriously impressed.
I've got to get home first. The way things are going around the office today, that's not going to happen. (Oh, and we use all Sun and Linux boxes here, so I can't even run it at the office.)
Guys, most of the equipment in use by the FAA isn't new enough to run Windows 2000. I worked on the "state of the art" search radar, and it was built around Sun Ultra 5s.
The scroll wheel is just a round touchpad and is based on the same technology Synapsis has patents on. It even feels the same as the touchpad on my PowerBook.
Touchpads are the best thing that ever happened to this company. They're getting licensing fees and royalties on almost every notebook sold, or they make money directly as the component vendor for the touch pads.

Okay, it was only 95. Still just a little bit lop-sided.
Too bad 98 senators sent a letter to Pres. Clinton saying they'd vote against ratifying it.
I'm sure it could have been done with the X-15. But no one tried it.

Richard Branson and his cool rocket ship?
Dark Helmet getting his ass kicked on the Planet Of The Apes?
President Scroob gets thrown out of office and replaced by a big headed guy from Massachusetts?
He could make a prequel that really sucks, but in a funny way.

Could someone please explain where the name came from? I'm picturing African shields and spears flanking my computer.
Perhaps we could start a support group for people that need to admit to, and deal with their use of windows?
My Church has one. We believe that if we pray hard enough and have enough faith, then we can be cured of our compulsion to use Windows.
It is a shameful secret. That's why the box is kept in the closet.
there's nothing in there but skeletons and that 'touchy' uncle!
That's not true. I evicted my uncle almost two months ago.
I've got to get home first. The way things are going around the office today, that's not going to happen. (Oh, and we use all Sun and Linux boxes here, so I can't even run it at the office.)
There's no Linux or Mac version. This means I'll actually have to pull the damn windows box out of the closet I stashed it in.
Hello, Mr Hatta. I'm agent Jones from the DEA. You have the right to to remain silent...
I've heard that HP actually sold both of the Itaniums they had in inventory, so there shouldn't be too much to write off.

Actually, the last would be damn funny.
Forward Mounted Missile Launchers.
They'd be a great help for my afternoon commute. On the other hand, my car is too small to carry enough ammo for driving on MOPAC.

Sorry, it's Synaptics, not Synapsis. I'm going to go wake up now.

So that was the problem. HAL was running Windows XP, and didn't get the service updates in time.
Add a function so that each user can decide who to ignore. If the trolls don't get enough attention, they should leave after a while.
