Farmers in Minnesota were famous for this as a monkey-wrench technique against power companies, especially in the thirties and the eighties, when times were tough. Also, a lot of times the power companies just pissed them off by running their high voltage lines over good farmland, and this was considered one way to recoup.
Nowadays. Not too long ago, most people had electron accelerators at home. Complete with high voltage, magnets for turning the beam, and detectors. Indeed, looking at those detectors was quite popular.

That all depends; I believe one is living there now:
In an interview Dr. Moreau said, "Chernobyl has enabled the development of several new and better mammals than were previously available in the area, and we are seeing a rapid increase in their ability to communicate on our level."
I got my University EE library to get a "subscription" to TAP! I have no idea where they sent the money to, and I suspect the copies were hand delivered, but I did learn how to build a blue box.
ceeam has it right on the nail. BP is out there drilling for YOU, AvitarX, and you and you and you reading this. They satisfy a demand, a vastly disproportionate bulk of which goes to the Western and most especially 'merican lifestyle, and it ain't just NASCAR. Beyond the transportation, and the US is specifically designed to waste petroleum for that, every fuckin' thing you eat was fertilized by oil, if it is meat it was fed medications based on oil, most of your clothes wouldn't exist without oil either as feedstock or to grow the monoculture fibers on industrial plantations. . . the list is immense and it goes on and on, but basically it touches everything from the building you live in to the military you pay for to defend the overseas sources. Those rigs aren't out there because of Palin, she exists because of them, and they are your masters as well. Most of the world already subsidizes your use, your whole dollar based financial system exists primarily to ensure the orderly flow of oil from wherever to the West, and if you don't acknowledge it you will not do well in the coming transition.
You are falling right into the trap. Of course they want you to look at this cloak so that you don't notice the other one. The story is clearly part of a larger misdirection strategy. . .
FTFA Genovese would have had a viable defense had he gone to trial, because the documents were widely available on peer-to-peer networks at the time of the sale, said Mark Rasch, a former Justice Department cybercrime prosecutor.
"This guy didn't participate in the misappropriation, and probably didn't conspire with anybody to misappropriate it," said Rasch, a vice president at security company Solutionary. "Once it's posted online, it's just not secret anymore. At some point it becomes public information."
Microsoft must be getting really serious 'bout this issue; not any security issue, mind you, but a PR one, thats for sure.
They went after some guy who tried to sell what he found, and then was dum enuf to sell for $40 online, but who had no connection whatsoever to leaking anything, and, by his own description, is less than the sharpest tack in the bulletin board:
"Basically, everything I do, I do ass-backwards," Genovese said in an instant-messaging interview ahead of Friday's sentencing. "I like drawing, so I spray paint. I like music, so I took some radios of kids I hated in high school. I like computers, so I hack."
Selling other people's stuff that you find laying around may not be legal or especially smart, but making a big deal out of the 800 billion lb. gorilla "catching" a petty criminal in the act ain't much news, either, unless MS wants to spend their PR highlighting their own incompetence....Oh, now I get it.

I am not against child rape or anything like that
I don't think that's what you meant to say.
No?
The Dr. begs to differ.
They could only publish it if they were getting the acceptable, authorized leaks which told them so.

You owe me, big time.
Yes, there have: 5 major ones in 4 billion years. The difference this time is we get to participate, both as an agent, and a sufferer!
Because on /. nobody can tell that you're Deep Sea Frilled Shark , and when they finally found out, I was gone.
Everything I had to know, I learned it on the radio.
Oh, well; somebody still loves you.

Why do you suppose there is "American Idol"?
The economy must really be on the verge of disintegration, if this is what they are talking about publicly. Batten down the hatches!

Bullshit!
