Think about this for a second.... ask any physicist, and they will tell you. Indeed I have taken many physics classes, as half my degrees entail physics... I have many physicist friends. All particles have math, even though they appear to be infinitesimal. Take an electron for example, its mass is 9.10939x10^-31 kg, rather small... rather small even compared to a protons mass of 1.67262x10^-27 kg. In indeed even photons have a slight mass, this is part of the paradox associated with the wave-particle duality. If no 'massy' particle can travel the speed of light (and any particle, due to being made of matter has mass), how can a photon travel at c (speed of light in a vacuum - 2.9979x10^8 m/s).
Indeed, if "gravity waves" conform to current theories (quantum physics, relativity, and I think string theory), they are essentially "virtual particles" having infintesimal mass, thus the fastest they can travel is assymptotically close to the speed of light. (see wave-particle duality in any quantum physics textbook).
But the real question is.... does phase shift matter? And what would the magnitude and phase spectrums look like of these gravity waves? I figured some of these questions are getting rediculous, I might as well as my own in... good call magnitude does matter...
I would have to agree, in the cities its much easiear, because CO's are fairly close... while DSL has a limit of approx. 4km here (for 1.5mbps), 3km (for 2mbps), and 2.5km (for 3mbps), the television subscriber has to be less than 2km from the box... so the telecom is placing DSLAM units around the city every so far apart (not quite sure how far). This is making the average range for a person in the city ~0.5-1km. This is making it easier, but for the rural areas, its just not going to happen... atleast in the forseeable future.
If I had a degree in english, perhaps I would speak with perfect english 100% of the time, but since I'm an engineer, and hence can't speak perfect english, but rather speak geek quite fluently, I believe I'm doing a decent job in getting the idea across. You knew exactly what I meant, hence who is worse, me or you for bringing up a completely moot point? I can atleast bring up comments which are very relevent to the thread...
SaskTel has the service available in Saskatoon and Regina right now, here in Saskatchewan Canada... MTS is doing pretty much exactly the same thing SaskTel, but they're a year to two years behind SaskTel, because they started later...
Well, I worked at the local telco, and from what I understand is, (and my knowledge of electrical engineering, telco networks, and IP), it is feasible on the existing network across my province, with much bandwidth to spare, and cheaper than using existing long distance trunks.
Sorry to be so picky, but the base unit for mass is not kilograms, it is gram. Kilo is simply a prefix used to denote the magnitude easier: deci : 10 centi: 10^2 kilo : 10^3 mega : 10^6 giga : 10^9 etc...
but you're quite right on your main idea. There are subtle differences between metric and System d'Internationale, but essentially they are the same, and can be used interchangably.
The ISS has been the brightest object in the night sky (atleast the northern hemisphere) for sometime now. It isnt just a recent thing (recent being two days or so), but more... a few months.
C++, a derivative of C, was not developed by Borland, nor do they own the rights to it, so, in my humble opinion, they can't tell you that you can't release the source code to a program you compile with Borland C++ Builder 3. So, I say, go hard, release the code, include the GNU GPL, what not, and don't worry, because Borland doesn't have a leg to stand on legally. (Again, these are just my humble opinions, and well, may not exactly be correct).

Label Gate sounds an awful lot like the word Watergate.... hmmmm conspiracy between Sony and Microsoft? You decide....
