  1. Re:Woops, rounding error... on Pi: It Just Keeps On Going · · Score: 1

    That's what I was thinking...kinda convenient that this guy has made 3 record-breaking Pi calculations, and they ALL came up Pi...! Someday, maybe our children can be fortunate enough to find out that the google'th digit of Pi is, you guessed it, 0.
    [The guy could have had at least more imagination...but then, if he's breaking records, who's gonna argue? Who's gonna say "erm, isn't it 4?"]

  2. Re:New Planet = New Poll ? on New 'Planet' Discovered in Solar System · · Score: 1

    Don't forget the obvious Plut* entry, Plutonium :)

  3. TV Shows on Mir To Crash Into Pacific · · Score: 1

    Well, the question to ask is, did they already film the Mir TV show? Or is it still in production? Perhaps the network will toss in just enough cash to keep it going until they need to. Never underestimate the networks :)

  4. Re:No, no, no! on Douglas Adams Back On Radio · · Score: 1

    True, but at least we got a cheap, Dr Who-ish version that we can watch :)
    My question is: How much of the 'trilogy' will be contained in the movie, if it's really made?

  5. Re:Mmm... Quake... zzzzz on Tetris Study Reveals Dreaming's Role In Memory · · Score: 1

    Yes, I agree. Perhaps I'm never really killing anyone, but my best ballet-like moves, spinning around corners, double jumping up everything, etc, are all in REM. It's so beautiful, it hurts...then again, playing Quake awake hurts too :)

  6. Re:No, no, no! on Douglas Adams Back On Radio · · Score: 1

    Whoops. http://upcomingmovies.com/hitchhikersguide.html
    There. Apparently they don't like the TARGET="_top" tag here...

    For info on that, check out upcomingmovies.com. http://upcomingmovies.com/hitchhikersguide.html Usually, when something is taken off IMDB, though, it's because it's either a hoax, or the plans for that aren't really solid at all. In this case, according to upcomingmovies.com, it's just not very solid. No real cast announced yet, 2002 is a *tentative* filming date, and the most solid thing is that "author Douglas Adams expects a 2002 release, which suggests a production start sometime in the next 18 months"
