It's just a few guys in England who've put together a fun game. They can't afford a marketing department. The game is quite entertaining, though, assuming you can enjoy a game that doesn't push your graphics card to the limit.

I seem to recall the music industry railing pretty hard against being held responsible for artists' content. They just distribute content, they're not responsible for filtering it to make sure nothing bad is in there.
Of course, the difference is that music is protected speech, but from a logical standpoint, it's a pretty... unusual. Of course, thinking that our laws should have some kind of logic to them is a sure path to madness.

Indian Curry = Hotter than the sun's corona.
Indian Water = Makes Montezuma's Revenge look like a christmas present.
Good luck gaining weight in India, slow metabolism or not.
It will be interesting to see how they get around the issues of buoyancy in thinner atmosphere and keep the balloon from exploding in a reduced-pressure environment. I'd take a parachute up along with my spacesuit, if I were one of those fellows...
Boy. Parachuting down from 30 miles up would be a hell of a trip.:)
Yes. Because the terrorists have always been out to get COMDEX. COMDEX is, of course, a major political target, having a deep spiritual significance to the American people, as well as a strong influence on the flow of U.S. policy.
So you see, this is -clearly- for our safety. Duh.
Won't someone please think of the plight of Microsoft? They're so helpless and vulnerable, this antitrust case would really be a mean thing to do, America!
*shakes head* Sorry. Sarcasm lobe got stuck in the "on" position.
Renewable resources will be the death of us in the long run.
Our current level of medical technology has seriously interfered with the natural evolutionary process. People with extreme vision defects, the weak, and the elderly are allowed to survive, propagate, and continue consuming resources through our "society." This can only lead to an eventual propagation of genetic defects which will counter thousands of years of evolution. Only by consuming to the point of social collapse can we truly further the advancement of the human species.
Screw solar. Consume! It's the only way to save our species!
It seems to me that I don't use much of my roof space. I mean, I can't even get up there to bask in the sun or get drunk and fall off for the neighbors' amusement. Think there might be a square mile of south-facing roof in your town?
