That palindromic c program is from like '95 it was a International Obfuscated C Coding Contest (or something) winner, some AWESOME stuff at:

Currently there is (approx.) 300 billion spent on defense and 2 billion spent on health care. If the defense budget was reduced to 275 billion and the health care system was given a 25 billion dollar kick in the ass, would more American lives be saved or would the evil countries of the world who have a combined defense budget of well under 100 billion a year come to my house and kill me?
There is also a $1,000,000 prize for anyone solving Goldbach's Conjecture which is another of the 23 problems Hilbert stated at the ICM. See this article , it's an unrelated contest to bring attention to a book, Uncle Petros and Goldbach's Conjecture which I definetely recommend. It's more of a story/biography than a math book though.
I was playing around with a pre-caching engine that would build page responses for a user based off previous traffic, then I got too lazy:-). eg. If a user always goes to slashdot.org then to slashdot.org/index.pl?section=apache the apache link is dynamic and must be created when the user asks for it. You might be able to use AI to predict user patterns and increase response time by pre-caching that page. (Just my $0.02)

How am I going to watch "Fist of the Legend" subtitled, when the words are backwards?

I've looked for any decent links on this and most of the pages read like alien abduction sites, all fluff and hype. I found only one university with info on it and it was in China. Anyone care to translate? http://www.chinainfo.gov.cn/periodical/shjtdxxb/sh jt2000/0002/000225.htm

Well he is allowed to think it, see this article he is doing a tech briefing in court. So as long as it's good for the government, he can talk the talk. Maybe he can cut a deal with the DoJ and get a Palm Pilot© too huh? :-)
