this can be remedied if a standard could be developed, something like a directx, but a browser-version of that instead; so you could for example play a game which can run on any hardware that supports a webbrowser, only thing you have to do is make the gamefiles accessible to your browser.
I think the moment all applications could be run virtually, within the browser, and i mean ALL applications, the underlying processor(+OS) wouldn't matter so much anymore. So, start pushing all your applications onto a webserver.
It's his invention after all. Not quite, I would agree if : he educated himself, and he didn't get any money from anyone to do his research. quoting Isaac Newton : "it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants."

That's not surprising i think, we are talking about millions of species (that's even if we are only talking about creatures > 0.1mm) And for many of those it's sometimes not easy to see whether 2 instances are from the same species or not. See the http://www.tolweb.org/tree/tree of life for an overview.
"the influence of profit-driven corporate agenda" that's the reason for the environmentalists to shout harder and harder ? It's frustrating to be kept quiet (the media are in the hands of those corps).
