Spammers love to use open proxies to hide, and are now engaged not only in scans to find then, but also in campaigns to create them. Trojans and worms like SoBig. While each offense is small, it's on a scale large enough to have them behind bars for quite a while.
The "last, best hope" was used by Lincoln in the American civil war, "We shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth."
It's quite possible that it goes back further to a version of the Bible or Shakespeare. (Always the two to bet on when finding the source of a phrase in one fell swoop.)
similar to the Commodore 64, Atari 800, and Apple II
It gets closer than that. It's got a socket for an additional 65816 CPU (high-speed, 16-bit 6502 CPU), although the 68HCS12 @ 25 MHz could probably emulate a 6502 well enough.
Run your old favourites... if you really wanted to.
The selective breeding (by man) of wolves into dogs into great danes and mini poodles is pretty recent. The sex protocol "handshaking" code hasn't had time to break. (With horses and donkeys, it's part broke.)
Ah, then you've read the book rather just seen the movie. I forget if the movie does anything with this. Pretty hard to do without a big sign pointing to him -- "This is Moon-Watcher, he watches the Moon. We're hinting at some latent striving here folks!"
I'd love to know why they hoot at Moon-rise and set. But then, I've never needed an excuse...
I wonder what scientists who study fecal samples call themselves (and what they're called by other people)? They'd hardly say Crap Scientist, after all. Corpologist? Is there a degree in that?
And then there's the joke about "bear-bells" and the difference between brown and black bears.
Wait until someone builds a trapper bot. It broadcasts a rogue access point, and lies in wait for all the sniffer bots to come along. It returns whenever its scrap bin is full to empty it and recharge.
Can you imagine CNN covering Science at NASA they way they do other "breaking news" events?
Anchor Al Lewis: It's just come in that a startling statement has been made by a scientist at NASA, we are attempting to get confirmation of this, and will now join CNN news journalist Fred Gwynne, embedded at NASA, live.
Fred Gwynne: Yes Al. It seems that an unnamed NASA scientist came down this corridor, and passed through this doorway. When we attempted to follow, he yelled at us, "I'm going to the washroom, you fscking pervs! Keep out!", and slammed the door in our faces. Al.
Anchor Al Lewis: Thank you Fred. What can this mean? We go now live to our panel of experts to analyse this developing situation...
Perhaps it is best not to tell us everything moment by moment...:^P
The view of Mars' past climate, and where it's going now always seems to be changing at we get more data. Were there any stable periods benign enough for life to evolve? Dunno. And we only have one planet data point to predict life from.
Think some parts of deserts: Sterile and barren for ages, but when it does get that quick dump of rain, *POOF*, life all over the place for a short while.
When it's evolved for it, life on Earth can be pretty good at staying dormant for a long period of time, then living large during the short good times. If there is life on Mars, it would have to be even better. If you're in the wrong place or at the wrong time, oh well..
The esteemed Ferris Bueller said it best: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
It could be that they've invented the technology, and now they're looking for applications. The Mars application is fine, but most of the Earth ones sound like "Let's put them in the field and monitor.. stuff". And then what? Yes, I know that once they've got the data from the tests, they'll have better idea of uses, but maybe they're looking for suggestions?
How about an air quality net spread across a city? That could be useful in detecting where local polluters are, and when they're doing it.
Here in Toronto (and probably same elsewhere) they already have inductive detectors buried at most grid-road lights to monitor traffic flow and control the lights.
Weird thing about Qix boards: they have a serial port. With dual 6809 processors, I always wanted to put OS-9 or something on one. Oh, and a (checks closet) 6802 for sound--which had stereo capability, but that wasn't used from what we could tell. (You haven't really played Qix until you've tried it hooked to an in-circuit emulator. Try it with 3 Qix on the board, heh.)

Who says that was a reference to The Honeymooners? :^P
Is that the classic where Ralph dresses up as the man from space?
I too have received offers to get hitched with a hot russian woman from a long distance!

They should try him with sign language like Koko.
Coyotes and wolves are cross-fertile too.
(There is no truth to the rumour that Marlin Perkins was found poked to death.)

Wait! Don't spin-up Washington until they make Storm Thurmond give out the secret of anagatheics!
that with Spintronics they can make James Blish Cities in Flight type Spindizzies yet?
But then again, you could always just play ping-pong (Coffee and Cats warning.)
Oh well, a smoke-ring gun is pretty good.

I hope you also bought the septic tank to hold all that .. Bovine Stuff. :^P
Add this one: 9. news.admin.net-abuse.* is not SPEWS.
Who the hell would buy a penis enlarger from Micro-Soft?
