  10. Keyhole - Is that a standard term? on Gravity Tractor Could Deflect Asteroids · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Could someone with the proper knowledge submit a Wikipedia article for keyhole? The word is used in the summary three times and seven times in tfa. I guess the term is here to stay.

    Thank you.

  11. Re:Books? Any written materials? on DHS Allowed To Take Laptops Indefinitely · · Score: 1

    You should know, FIREhed!

    Seriously, though, when the example was first made, theaters may have been more crowded than today--completely packed, with more people outside pushing to get in. In the days before air conditioning, a false alarm might bring suffocation and trampling more than happens today.

    Did you have to use the word, flash?

  22. Re:Pigeons on Pidgin Controversy Triggers Fork · · Score: 1

    A strange tale indeed. Here I rip off a google cache of someone's blog (the content is unverified, and, worse, OT!!):

    The majesty of the law is molting: U.S. Fish and Wildlife agents proved unyielding enforcers of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 when they swooped down on a Camden restaurant, demanding the removal of a stuffed seagull displayed in the dining room for decades. Although the bird was mounted under glass back around the time of the Civil War, the agents pressed the government's case. Following intercession by Sen. Olympia Snowe, however, the owner was allowed to donate the bird to the Penobscot Marine Museum, which promptly loaned it back to the restaurant for display again. Go figure.
