...Except perhaps to the executives the magazine is aimed at. Early versions of software are generally pretty buggy, particularly if the target keeps changing, and most especially if it is in response to a hastily crafted law. The only thing that's surprising about this is that the output is taken so seriously by law enforcement officials *prior to completion*.
The Register covered this a bit ago. The main point of the article, and this post, is that stepping on the rights of 'terrorists' (nearly indistinguishable from 'material witnesses' in this case) really does diminish the rights of everyone, just like we learned in 5th grade civics, along with the importance of hygiene and proper manners.
Miss Wormwood wasn't just bullshitting us afterall.
Assembly and forth are wonderful for systems that are limited by memory or time. That said, why isn't the colorforth system you made available on your website useable by pre-pentium pcs?

Mycorrhizal relationships -- the mutualist relationship between plants and fungi -- were first noted in 1863 by the German researcher Frank. Fossil evidence indicates this relationship seems to have been around for the last 460 Million years, which is just about the beginning of land plant evolution. These infections, which can take many different forms, are most noted for increasing the nutrient uptake in the plant (as well as providing the fungal partner with photosynthetic carbon in return). To oversimplify things a bit, different fungi specialize in obtaining nutrients from different substrates - some are good at extracting minerals, others at obtaining nitrogen, phosphorus and such from complex organic sources. Several fungi are adept at preying on small insects such as nematodes.
In short, this is as newsworthy if you've had your head in the sand for the last few million years.
Flex time boosts productivity and moral for simple reasons:
o Employees can exercise, attend their
kid's school functions or take them to
doctors without any hassles.
o Employees like to have a modicum of control
over their lives.
o The above results in decreased stress.
o Exercise, and lower stress, leads to lower
absenteeism and more energy on the job. And
to fewer coworkers going postal.
o It provides the illusion that the employer
isn't an organization of pointy-haired
jerks.

Don't they have some donuts that need eating?

Now I can waste time even when I'm not at work.
