... errrr... How are you gonna afford that ? I think building a simple house costs you a certain 50K euro's... besides, last time i checked, you could just repaint, or if you're more thorough , redo your plaster cast

How about we stop building houses on the lowest parts of alluvial flood plains?
We've been building there because it is a great place to build harbours, and these places are usually also very fertile. It also makes us very vulnerable to rising sea-levels.
Or, at the very least, someone would have sent out Von Neumann self-reproducing intelligent probes. We should see those everywhere, if life were common.
probes with bacteria or virusses, or even just amino-acids ?
1/1Mw is outdated, they're going for 2-5Mw ones now; and they're much cheaper than nuclear power plants(even without their hidden costs) 2/even it is 6000 windturbines per nuclear power plant, I'll still go for those, You can put 'em up nearly anywhere. (can you build a nuclear power plant in the sea?)
Those machines would be in the hands of the very few ultra-rich and powerfull, they would have a tool for even further control of the politicians. A better name than 'FAST' would be 'cattle-control'.
shop around and find someone who suits your needs.
But there isn't that much choice, is there ? all those ISP's all look alike: same prices, same speeds, and they don't really want the market to change...
the worst part of this : the government (actually, the republicans) wouldn't want social security (the bailout = social security equivalent for companies)
you skipped a few economy classes do you ? The non-rich can go to other banks; the upper class with stock in those banks are saved from the bankruptcy of that company (and people with a loan with those banks can keep paying off their dept... if those banks crashed, they wouldn't have to pay anymore... bank gone!... but people with savings at those banks would be screwed)

You, and half the rest here.
Is it that hard NOT to take a call while driving?
evidently, YES.
Teleportation? Did I miss something here? Has matter been teleported or is this just speculation?
Yes. But it's only Photons that have been 'tele-ported' at the speed of light even.
"removable": yes. "replace":no.

Wind farms don't scale
They do. http://news-service.stanford.edu/news/2007/december5/windfarm-120507.html
covering the surface of the Earth with solar panels or wind farms is not practical,
not necessary. even just covering all roofs with solar panels is enough to fulfill our energy needs. or ONE windmill per mile highway.
feasible
sure it does
or desirable)
highly desirable: no need for wars over oil or nuclear fuel.
they will always show up in the sent
if that is still the case in version 8, then it still sucks.
6.5 here. Managing messages is brain-dead; You can't really move your mails in the sent-folder to another location !!!
it could also be that Lotus sucks, so Apple's app has no real competition. (yes, i HAVE to use lotus at work)

who thinks it's perfectly ok to murder people because of the country they were born in.
I have seen other people acting like that.
And those batteries are probably worth more than that $200 in raw materials, and for new batteries, they need the raw materials anyway.

a few billion dollars ? as opposed to the the hundreds of billion dollars made by the oil-industry ?
the US government gave a few hundred billion dollars to the upper class today, by buying out freddie and fannie ...
Damn, I'll stay in Europe with my money ...
