  1. Re:Earthquake relationship ? on Geomagnetic Storm In Progress · · Score: 1

    How about the White house, the Washington monument, Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Mt Rushmore... Apparently you are not watching enough disaster movies.

    Well... that's Linux.

  7. google cares not on Microsoft-Yahoo Search Deal Gets Go-Ahead From EU, US DoJ · · Score: 1

    Yahoo/Bing is not a threat for Google,as Google is so secure of its search market, such as the story that Bing has only 2% market share in Japan. Google is now putting its efforts and money in other areas such as killing the iphone, being an high speed fiber optic ISP, an energy provider...
