  1. I cahnt doo et Cap'n.....! on India Plans Moon Mission In 2005 · · Score: 1


    ...I doont know how long the Curry weel 'old.....!

  2. Ground Control... on Inventor Building Rocket In Backyard · · Score: 1

    ...to Major Tom..

    ......can you hear me..... Major Tom... ?


  3. Point of reference.. on Yahoo Will Use Google Instead Of Inktomi · · Score: 1

    Google being my primary search (and the beauty that it is)... here's another for those looking for a backup:

    FAST Search


    .......should the need arise.

  4. Business as usual.... on Net Films Not Eligible For Oscar · · Score: 1

    "..it seems a bit strange that the Academy is apparently doing whatever they can to lock filmmakers into the status quo."

    This hardly seems strange to me at all. What we have here are awards presentations that thrive on secured funding...

    secured movies...
    secured production companies...
    secured audiences...

    Secured Revenue.


    To begin with, the awards presentations are a farce in and of themself. The Grammys are hardly any better in this reflection, of which I am a voting member, (although sometimes I cannot understand why I continue.. but I hope.. ..and I hope....).

    At any rate, the Academy is afraid of change, as is the Music Industry.

  5. And I remember.. on Dell To Make MP3 Home Stereo Component · · Score: 1

    ..when some thought that MP3 was going the way of DAT and Mini-Disc (although I've had both and loved them both.. but I digress).

    Just goes to show that a compression scheme has less to do with the availability/ease of access.. in regards to the success of a carrier medium.

  6. Time served.. on Genetically Engineered "Smart" Mice · · Score: 1

    ``It maintains the juvenile character ... the childlike appreciation of things,'' he said.

    I suppose this is where Mickey asks for tenure...


  7. For those interested... on English Researchers Find Extra-Terrestrial Water · · Score: 2

    ..a somewhat dated article on Europa (a moon of Jupiter), and the probable existance of liquid water beneath it's surface .

  8. ... on Researchers Witness Birth Of Volcanic Island · · Score: 1

    Pacifire...
