First of all, I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but I have to say it anyway.
I agree that the actions the school took were a bit extreme, but you can understand why they reacted that way. Given the number of high school shootings that have taken place in America or anywhere (and I don't know how many there have been, but one is way too many, don't you agree?)
they should react very carefully. It was definitely a knee-jerk reaction, but what would they have done if there was a real threat by someone to bring a gun to their school?
I'm not saying that the schools reaction was right, they really needed to look into the matter more before reacting so harshly, I just want to know if people can appreciate the emotion behind the response.
There were news reports of a student down here in Australia who was expelled from their high school after students read his diary (I don't know why) and found thoughts about how a shooting would be interesting, or something similar. I'm not sure of the details, but there was a huge complaint over the politicians reports and the schools actions. Anybody got some information about that?

Yeah, I discovered the same things about bullies.
I also quckly discovered that most of the people who were acting verbally were, to be frank, stupid. Being slightly more intelligent than stupid, i would usually reply with something that either humiliated the shit out of them, or they didn't understand. I would simply walk away while they scratched their heads.
(Offtopic, but funny: One tried to call me an aphrodisiac. I wonder if they meant hermaphrodite? Or the one who told all their friends that i was a "Homo-Sapien")
Physical violence stopped about as quickly as it started, being taller than pretty much everyone else at my high school, and built like a brick shit house.
I was only brought into the office once, for head butting someone (I swear i didn't do it, and it was my friend i allegedly knocked out, but word got around anywhere and suddenly, nobody bothered me anymore)
One person did bring a knife into the school, took it out "to pretend" at the same time a teacher came around the corner. As I said, Most bullies are dumb.
I don't know what I've been doing wrong!
I've had a hotmail account for at least two years now, and I've only just started recieving spam, and that at a rate of one every two or three days.
I set up a hotmail account for my mum, using a name of [first initial last initial]surname
and within a day she was recieving spam. Mostly porn, which as a fifty four year old woman, she greatly appreciated (Sarcasm, for those who can't tell).
All of this happened before she even sent out any emails. I routinely signed into her account and blocked the senders, as you did. Only worked for a week.
The problem being, you can only block 250 addresses. Why she got hit by spam so hard, I don't know. I reported this to abuse at hotmail.. and their solution was to "Block the senders"! Why didn't i think of that?
My solution was to go to zzn.com (sorry, can't be bothered making a link) and set up an email server for my parents ( ____@[lastname]mail.zzn.com)
Much better than hotmail, no porn yet. Heck, even my slashdot address, which is real and not even rearranged slightly, hasn't been hit yet. This might change things a bit. [as a side note: Go ahead! Bring it on!]
Um, got distracted. I think my point was, go create your own email server. If nothing else you have more control over it.

I just have two things to say about that. The first is of course that you shouldn't generalize us Aussies like that. You can't actually believe that we are all like that because of what you may have seen.
Thats not important though, of course. You're entitled to believe whatever you want (Even if if it is wrong:P )
The main thing is to understand is that (IMHO) its not that Aussies are wierd, its just that the country as a whole is not as, well, technologically savvy? (Not sure how to phrase that exactly) which means that when the government tries to bring in overly restrictive (and plain dumb) laws or regulations, there are not that many people who would complain to a large extent.
This at least seems to be the case to me. I've only just been able to introduce my parents to email (and the kind people who got hold of her email address introduced her to spam and porn for me) and they, being able to vote and voice their opinions louder than I (being only 17) have no opinion in this laws, and somewhat assume that anything the government introduces to make the net safer (also read: hinder advancement) is for the good of the nation, and willl heartily believe that.

>Speculating things from pure theory is usually 99% wrong
Correct me if (as I'm sure I am) wrong, but isnt that the whole thing about theory? You can't be sure what's right or wrong about it.
Anyway, for the most part people aren't claiming a comprehensive understanding of theoretical astrophysics or quantum mechanics, but Hawkings work is very interesting to those of us without any knowledge of Einsteins field equations or anything like that. Its in laymans terms, and for physics to be taken seriously in the wider world, thats important, surely.
As for lack of experimental data (and the views not being held high as a result) again, that's why it's called theory.
You say you're not trying to bash anyone for not being a physics guru, then why do you bring it up? I am willing to bet that people reading these books with no prior knowledge on the matter will come away with at least a few ideas of whats going on in that field of research/thought/whatever. It's not like they're willing to give a lecture on why wormholes in curved space can/cant be used (theoretically) as a form of time travel. Sorry, What was the point?

First off, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, and light travels at differents speeds in different media. This means that when moving from a medium into one in which the speed of light is slower than the first, the lightwaves/photons (whatever) need to release some energy, (As energy=hf, and f=speed of light/wavelength [sorry, couldn't find lambda sign]so there would be a difference in energy after going into a "slower" medium) which is given off as, I believe, flashes of visible light (yes?, no? maybe? I'm unsure)[Also, then how does light speed up going into faster media? Does it? What accelerates it if it does? Anyone?)
(mmmm, a bit offtopic, aren't i?)
Relativity (or some part of it anyway) means, at least for this case, that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in that medium. And most massive objects (like ships) cant come anywhere near close. Please, correct me if i am wrong, but as an object (not light) accelerates toward fairly fast speeds (or velocities, if you prefer, but I just want the scalar) it gets more and more massive, and hence acceleration gets harder and harder (a=F/m)
Very much out of my depth here, considering only formal education in physics so far is high school level, but does the above have anything at all to do with the wave behaviour of non-light particles? I mean, how can an object gain mass due to acceleration, unless looking at kinetic mass (?) being calculated by energy and velocity, energy being calculated by that formula given above.
Please correct me, i am rambling. May as well mod me down now.
Not completely certain about Windows 2000, but am occasionally running Windows ME, and am in no way impressed.
First of all, there is NO DOS at all. Of course, most personal users not heavily interested in computers (ie, people who use computers, but aren't bothered about things like performance or speed. eg, my parents) dont need DOS, but when trying to partition my drive so to install RedHat, it's kind of hard without having dos. My TV card won't work with it, and every time I try to use the actual TV function, the whole damn thing just freezes, needing a restart. It seems as if M$ have just taken Win98 and made it "easier" and less useful.
So don't even think about believing that Linux has forced improvement of Windows. IMHO it is worse than ever.
Complaints aside, surely it's not that heard to believe that some people just prefer using Linux (or anything else) as their main OS.
Anyway, the Mac OS X is good, but everything has some things good about it, and just because it can do some of the tasks of Linux doesn't make it better (only more expensive than Linux)
