Well, there does seem to be "bubble" economics at work here. Many market analysts say that the price of oil is the result of demand. But I can't help but think what would happen if nations subsidizing oil were to raise their prices. Demand destruction would take place (at a greater rate), but OPEC would lower their oil output to keep prices high.
It's true fuel efficiency was not the worry back then, but the design goals that lead to it are the same.
Maybe he was prophet, giving us a car that by today's standard would have been fantastic on gas mileage back in 1933. We're all gonna be using three wheels soon when we have to try to get gas at Bartertown
Of course, as all nerds know, anything that dies can come back as a zombie to eat that which is alive. But we're rational people here and could never imagine that.
Why wouldn't it? The conformal coating will provide a physical barrier to the tin whiskers. They would be too fine and not have enough energy to penetrate it.
I think the military was onto something by demanding much of their electronics have it.
I think that this is an apple an oranges comparison that you and the parent poster is making here. You must remember that Tim Russet's niche was political journalism which is arguably a more difficult beat to report on than the day to day goings on that Kronkite was known for. Further, he projected an affable demeanor that was the same on screen as it was off. In the midst of difficult personalities asking difficult questions.
What is even more admirable is that he managed to lead what by all accounts was an honorable life outside the newsroom.
Give a kid a fish, he eats for one day. Teach a kid to fish, he eats for a lifetime. Give a kid a laptop, and he empties your bank account. Teach a kid to program, and your job is outsourced to him.

In Communist China, everyone runs Windows for free!
Greenland, you're slackin' off about this.
Well this is "News for nerds." Where did you come from?

1)Nerds are inherently lazy at replacing seldom used tech. It just stays in place until it gets in the way.
2)Nerds don't need their VCRs to tell time or record with. They use a HTPC.
The day I see a female programmer is the day I see my VCR tell the right time.

As opposed to anyone else who is not?? I think that you consider him a biased hack because you disagreed with him. Not because he wasn't honest.

Rest in blessed peace, dear Tim.
I would not only encourage young people in Britian to watch youtube, but to also have more tea parties.

The Ronulans have always been trouble.
Look at it this way. Even though you are held without charges forever at gitmo, you don't have to pay for room and board.
I agree. We need to burn more oil and stuff to help out the enviroment.
But don't zombies already work at Microsoft?? oh..you meant for dial-in. Srry. Get the captcha hackers on that.
Imagine the size of the switch they're gonna need to reboot the data center!!
You complicate the dialog to much;

They will just use really, really long extension cords.
They can insert their stinger and inject their deadly poison another way.
