Acctually, Since the universe had only 10^80 particles, I could only assume that every particle (atom, eletron, proton, photon, quark) within the control of humanity (the whole earth, moon and eventually mars) could each have an address...
Now, to keep track of every particles address wouldn't we need a computer that consisted of the same amount of particles? And would this computer need to keep track of it's own particles addreses? Then the computer would become VERY large and become the size of the universe.
Perhaps this has already happened and we are all part of a computer keeping track of email addresses and just don't know it!
I can see it now... Go to My.Porn.com and enter the serial number off of your latest issue of 'Crack Whores Monthly' and download the images to your hard drive. The porn industry would be in an uproar and lawyers would be 'a flying.
What about the old addage "You get what you pay for"? I would afraid to see what kind of porn I'd get when only wanting to pledge my Miscrosoft for it. I don't know, but I'd bet it'd involve S&M.
My god! Where have we gone? We pay our artists more than we pay our doctors or scientists, more than the people who run the country and take care of us... There was a time when only the rich could afford the arts... OOPS, i guess it's not over yet.

Has anyone heard much of the 20 hour mini-series called 'Taken'?
They have a $50 Million budget, and apparantly it revolves around abduction stories beginning in 1947...
The only reason I know anything about this is that they spent a week filming at my house in North Vancouver.
I remember some people were wondering how @Home could fail when they took in so much $$ from their customers...
Well... Here's a hint. I closed my @Home account 1 year ago. I had 3 email addresses on that account.
Guess what! I still use ALL 3 of those email addresses, and they all still work beautifully.
Considering the amount of SPAM I get, and how much bandwidth costs, no wonder they are going out of business.
Damn!

I say that we have been in dire need of Battlefield Earth for a long long time...
Now we have a new benchmark to judge future bad movies. BE can equal -10 and Citizen Cane (The Matrix? Or the like) can eqal +10...
Battlefield Earch = -10
Wing Commander = -9.8
... And so on.
The site has been taken down...
Access has been forbidden. Perhaps Apple didn't like having their fancy new os displayed in such a fashion.
