I can't believe you even spent time typing that. It really doesn't seem like it could be worth the effort. Even if you had just cut and pasted I doubt if it would've been worth the effort...
You would be correct...correct in that you are wrong. The moon is indeed orange during an eclipse, because there's no way all the light can be blocked. The small amount of light that hits the moon gives it a nice orange tint.
It is funny that you had no idea what you were talking about though...
A lunar eclipse happens multiple times a year and can be seen everywhere it is night during the eclipse. When the moon is orange, you are witnessing a lunar eclipse. It's really not as big of a deal as a solar eclipse because the shadow is big enough for everyone to see instead of it being localized in a certain place.
This is neither flamebait nor troll, please don't moderate down...
Actually, he got moderated down too many times within a period of time. Who could ever grow tired of ruining a karma whore's life? Karma whores are as useless as trolls. Instead of writing comments which they know will piss people off, they write comments that they know the stupid moderators'll agree with. In my mind, they're the same thing, except that trolling at least shows some form of intelligence. Also, I don't think anyone's life is that centered around your own that they'd care whether you were the real author of those messages or not....
It's just proof that moderation simply doesn't work. You see, the moderators don't like the Beatles. Or things other than linux. The Beatles don't happen to be Linux related. Had all the lyrics been replaced with linux related things (and windows hating things) it most certainly would've been given a +4 Funny.
PLEASE DON'T MODERATE ME DOWN!! THERE'S ABSOLUTLY NO POINT! NO ONE WILL READ THIS ANYWAY...
Actually, the fact is, is that you're a moron. The inspiration for the song was a picture that John Lennon's son, Julian I believe, drew as a young child. Julian (?) named the drawing "Lucy in the sky with diamonds." So, in all actuality, the song most likely has nothing to do with LSD.
Social Darwinism not only isn't one of Darwin's theoreys, it has nothing to do with life or death. It has to do with social standing. It says that those who are members or the lower class are so because they aren't intelligent enough or aren't driven enough to be members of a higher class. Social Darwinism was thought up by a 19th century economist. (If I recall correctly)
So, while your statement does have some truthful points, it's also filled with quite a bit of misinformation
Then you die. It's a process called natural selection, and it's quite natural. It happens to animals all the time, yet with people, everyone MUST be guarnteed(sic) a good life. Perhaps it's time to stop diluting the gene pool, allowing those who probably should die to live and pro-create. Who knows? Maybe the downfall of the human race will be caused by our incessent need to tamper with life.....
This is not flamebait, nor a troll. Don't bother commenting on my spelling/grammar... it has nothing to do with my arguement....
I am a Christian Scientist, and as such I have learned tolerance for those with different beliefs, but some of the posts on this topic truely sadden me. You may not agree with our religious beliefs, but there's no need to insult the Christian Science faith. It, to me, shows a huge lack of maturity.
The LinuxPPC server is down, just thought I'd let you all know that. Also, the windows NT 5 (2000) site is back up, so apparently the contest is not over. Just thought I'd let you all know...
Does anyone have any pricing information on SGI computers? SGI, along with Sun, and many other high-end Hardware/Software vendors refuse to give you a price for their products. I'm not interested in pricing on NT boxes, just the IRIX boxes, like the 02, and the Octane (even the Onyx2). Anyway, maybe there's a website that sells SGI boxes...
Actually, the thing that's been available for windows for a long time is a technique called anti-aliasing, which is just bluring the edges of something to make it look smoother. The technique M$ is now taking credit for is a sub-pixel technique. It's too complicated to go into detail about, but if you had read the website that was listed, you would already understand. Please thing before posting next time...

Last time I checked, you were unable to complete a sentence. I think the real question is WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
This REALLY doesn't deserve a +5 score! It was only given it because it mentions linux advocacy, and the linux advocacy HOWTO...
(sigh)

Yes, i've seen a scan of the drawing online....

so i suppose you would be pronouncing it incorrectly (if you don't believe me, just look in a dictionary!
