Why does a USB battery charger need software. I have a number of devices that just use the power from a USB port to charge, and they don't connect any other wirez apart from the power.
So when did he predict 'the internet' ? Was this before or after Al Gore invented it?
AFAIK Shoghi Effendi predicted the internet back in 1936:
"A mechanism of world inter-communication will be devised, embracing the whole planet, freed from national hindrances and restrictions, and functioning with marvellous swiftness and perfect regularity."
when this new form of matter comes in contact with the normal matter that the rest of the universe is made of? Do we get a gigantic explosion (as we would with matter and anti-matter), of do the particles just avoid each other like the plague?
On the other hand if the first aliens we meet are like the Borg or G'ould rather than Vulcans, then its irrelevent what our ethics are, we will be assimilated/conquered and or eaten.
AFAIK tritium is an isotope of hydrogen, with an atomic weight of 3. It is radioactive, but its still hydrogen, and is a gas lighter than air. If it leaks its going to rise up to the top of the atmosphere, so its not going to affect anyone unless they live above the plant.
We want sequels to Return of the Jedi. Wasn't he originally going to do 3 sets of trilogies: with the 3rd set later on, and the only common characters would be the 2 droids?
So if scientists use MS Excel for part of their data analysis, MS should release the source code of Excel to prove that there's no bugs in it (that may favour one conclusion over another) Soumds fair to me.
And if MS doesnt comply then all scientists have to switch to OO.org ?
Back in my day, cars had a 3rd pedal on the floor called the clutch. If your throttle got stuck you could hit the clutch pedal and cut the power to the transmission.

"they're breathing pure oxygen - that's what was used on the apollo moon missions."
I think Chaffee, Grissom, and White would probably say that pure oxygen is not such a good idea.
There are worse End-of-the-world movies to be blamed for, Like the Day after tomorrow, and Armageddon
model numbers are not math, they are marketing. Marketing doesn't have to make sense.

"who on Earth will be making any progress?"
The Russians. How else are they going to keep the ISS supplied.
Welcome our benign alien overlords.

"How about a wireless projecter, the size of a deck of cards"
You do know that you can get decks of cards of different sizes,even if you are just limitting it to the common playing cards.
Why can't people use standard units of measurements like millimeters, or even inches?
The Lisa
I use a desktop, it has a 28 inch screen.
I presume that there will be some restrictions in the use of such systems in sports car racing also.

Ever heard of cat5 cable? Its more secure than wifi too.
I thought that the cupola was the commanders turret on top of a tank, usually mounting a heavy machine gun.
So when buying stuff with batteries in, check the cheapest and slowest shipping option. If it comes by USPS or UPS Ground, it won't be a problem.
Rod Millen's time
and also Francium (element #87)
I think its originally from the Latin: per centum .

There should have been a 4th law :-
Don't harm another robot unlessspecifically ordered to do so by a human.
I thought a metric mile was 1500 metres. (At least thats the distance that has replaced the mile in international sport, like the olympics)
