    I have to admit, you are idiot. Sorry, but let me prove it:
    Proving that you are idiot, and that there is not even one responsible government:
    1. Lets take USA government: not responsible
    2. Lets take Greece government: not responsible
    3. Lets take any random government (your choice, idiot): NOT RESPONSIBLE
    ....
    based on the famous math deduction: EVERY GOVERNMENT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE.
    Now, little boy, go and kill your math teacher for giving you the false feeling that you actually NOW math.

    I did not see any fact from the both sides, so your point is what? That both sides are wrong? And actually, a movie that costs half a billion dollars to produce??? Really??? WTF??? Let me translate it to you, if they are able to spend half a billion dollars for the latest Avatar movie, that means that.....YOU ARE RIGHT, that they have half a billion dollars to spend. Do you follow me? The question is where are these money coming from? Oh, sorry, that was the answer, silly me.

    Still missing the point? Or pretend to? My college education was in math, my university was in math too, and computer science is just a coincedence, as it is for the most slashdoters. We are used to logic, but we are also used to the practical one, not the abstract one, at the end of the day, we all make programs that actually works. With this said, you are forgetting (conveniently) some base facts:
    1.Government is paid by our taxes.
    2.The taxes are paid by us, you, me, regular Jo, commala, you name it.
    3.Who do you think has the responsibility to prove anything at all? ME, that is paying their salary, or THEY, that are paid by ME?
    Since the very beginning of our civilazation, there is not even one single case of responsible government, not even one, i repeat, not even one. In any math book, this fact proves that there is not even one responsible government. Simple enough, ain't?
    ....
    Just for the sake of the argument, even if all this argument was some abstract argument, regarding the classics like Socrat, to name the most famous of them, the burden of proving anything is also abstract, and it is my duty to put this burden on you, to force you to argue, even to follow your argument and twist it until even you start to argue with me, and thus argue with yourself, and then i would have one another battle won. Which is exactly what you are actually trying to do, but again, not here, not on this forum, not with the highly educated professional that happen to read and post on this forum. Go to your local elementary school and continue to train your logic and argument (and don't come back).

    Actually yes, i am big fan of sci-fiction, and it hearts me to just look at all these amazing titles that i want to buy, only if they are under $10. E-book only. Last time i relocated, i had to leave 2 box of books (50-100 books), which is the reason why i only buy e-books. Anyway, shame on you Penguin, shame.

    Actually, your argument has one BIG fault. Let me explain it you. The question is not whether i have evidence that the government is corrupted by the Big Corporation, but the opposite, where is the evidence that they DON"T eat???? WHERE? These kind of bullshit arguments like yours could only work for 1st grade kids, not for slashdoters, so please go to your local bar and try to read some classic books about dialogue, argument, and who Aristotel is. Please.

  13. Re:Nothing here on Amazon Denies Reports That Airport Scanners Ruin Kindle's e-Ink · · Score: 1

    My Kobo e-reader is only 1.5 years old, and the e-ink display is $%#%$#$%^. My scientific guess is that it is because of some combination of static electricity and low/high humidity. If you don't get, here more details: When you have low humidity, the probability for static charge increases a lot, this combined with some artificial humidifiers (A/C or sudden change of geo location, like flying with air-plane), could increase the probability of static discharge by ten-fold. The result, i need new e-in reader, the cheaper the better (it would be gone in 2 years, so why bother with the fancy one?)

    Here is one interesting analyze of the cost and benefits of the nuclear, gas and coal plants: http://www.nuclearfaq.ca/cnf_sectionC.htm
    And some problems about Wind Power: http://www.aweo.org/problemwithwind.html
    Did you see that i did not post the "cost" of the wind power??? How could i measure something that is not constant? How much costs a ticket to the latest block buster movie, if all the tickets are sold? how much costs a ticket for some 20years old black and white movie, if no one wanna to watch it? Do you know that the irregularity caused by the irregular electricity produced by these wind turbines REQUIRES additional measures to collect and correct it? Do you wanna your computer to be plugged to such a turbine with tolerance from 50v to 200v, and thus requiring an additional USP device (just to give a simpler example of the problem)???
    Anyway, because the real cost of the wind power is hid from the public, and because the customer never buys directly from the wind power grid (it is the government that does it), here is one good calculation of the cost of the solar panels farm, which is close to the wind turbines: http://www.nofreewind.com/
    So, again, would you build a wind turbines or nuclear plant, if it is YOU who gives the money???

    The problem, as always, is politics. There are plenty of nuclear reactors in Europe which were closed because they were "unsafe", even if they were more safe than the ones in France, but as we could say, business as usual. It is all about money and independence. If a country has nuclear reactors, that means they are energy independent. I repeat: INDEPENDENT. How dare they, you could say, how dare they to be independent??? And you know, when someone is independent, he starts to think, he starts to analyze, he starts to (nono, not possible) QUESTION the status quo??? Anyway, there is a justice, always, and in case you are not aware, there was at least one incident which was close to the one at Fukushima, where almost all of the safe guards failed to react, and only the pure luck, i repeat again, THE LUCK was the one that did not let the reactor to blow like a mushroom. la Vie en Rose.
