    Lucas wrote the whole Star Wars saga a long time ago

    Don't you mean a long long time ago?


    Wouldn't it be, "A long long time ago in a galaxy far, far away."

  2. Re:NOT the real Dr. Who! on Dr. Who To Come Back To The BBC · · Score: 1
    PLEASE! The REAL Dr. Who would HAVE to be the man who created the role in the first place, and thus gave all of the others the chance to play the part. If it wasn't for William Hartnell starting the whole thing off back in '63, none of us would have ever heard of Dr. Who. So while I agree Tom Baker deserves an honorable mention as one of the few actors to play the role of the Dr., he is not the real Dr. Who.

  3. Re:clarification - orbital eccentricity on 11 New Extra-Solar Planets Announced · · Score: 1
    AntiNorm let's take a look at the section you pulled from the Slashdot article.

    "The new list includes 2 multiple planet systems, one planet with an orbital eccentricity of .93, and another in a nearly circular orbit near its star's habitable zone."

    Let's look at that last little bit again " and another in a nearly circular orbit near its star's habitable zone."

    Do you see it now, or do I have to spell out for you that they are talking about two different planets.

    I'm a big wheel. Get used to it.

    But since you are too pathetic to I.D. yourself, we don't know who you are.

    Also what does this have to do with security of computer systems.

  5. Re:Yeah, what authority do these people have? on Some Demote Pluto To Non-Planet · · Score: 1
    I'd say a center devoted to astronomical education has a whole lot more authority to decide what is and is not a planet than the general public.

    I would say that the International Astronomical Union is in a better position to decide the status of Pluto then ANY museum, which is what the Rose Center for Earth and Space is a part of, especially one that has only been open for a year.

    When the International Astronomical Union chooses to relabel Pluto as something other then a planet, then I will also consider it differently. Until that time Pluto remains a PLANET.

  7. Re:Pluto on Some Demote Pluto To Non-Planet · · Score: 1
    I believe the planet was named Pluto before the cartoon dog, and both of them long after the roman god of the underworld.

    Isn't it wonderful when people want to be ignorant of history and culture. I can see why you were ashamed to ID yourself.

  8. Re:what about anime porn? on Virtual Child Porn: Is It Illegal? · · Score: 1

    What has type of lifestyle is that for our children if they see this type of media and assume its real?

    It is not society's responsibility to protect your children from seeing anime. It is one of your responsibilities as a parent, to prevent your children from seeing this kind of thing.

    Please don't take my anime away just because you don't want to be responsible for your children.

  9. Re:DOES THIS COUNT? on Virtual Child Porn: Is It Illegal? · · Score: 1
    For those overly repressed individuals who can't tell the difference between real people and splotches of color on a piece of paper, yes it would be kiddie porn. To the remaining population of the world who can understand the difference, no it would not.

    George Dubya talking with the president of france (he's to stupid to learn another language): I would like to build a STRONG relationship of compassion between our two natIONS. I want to help execute and build military ties with you.

    What the french president hears: I think we are going to take strong military action against the nation of france. And I am going to have you executed.

    I would hope that for anything this important they would still invest in paying a human interpretter.

    Hmm.. I could just imagine the impact on diplomacy, or negotiations ...

    I would hope that for anything this important they would still invest in paying a human interpretter.

  12. Re:What is this? on NASA Clamping Down On ISS Crew Reports? · · Score: 1
    FOIA concerns "friends and family first" notification in case of death or injury.

    If this were the reason, I would be the first to defend the position; however, why continue to withhold the info after the next of kin has been notified and they have been given a few hours to notify other family and friends.

    I would hope that in the case of death or injury to one of the astronauts, the press would be informed and there would be no reason that I can see, why the relavent log couldn't be posted at the same time the press conference was going on.

    No it is definately something other then death or injury. But then it is nothing new for the US Govt. to hide info from it's citizens.

    I just LOVE the way so many people round here these days post without acquainting thenselves with the basic facts on the subject first :(

    That my dear friend is the American Way.

    If it was SO important to you, then why didn't you provide the necessary info to allow us to read more about it.
