  1. oh well on 1st Cup Of Coffee: Hardening Your Arteries · · Score: -1, Redundant

    hell, I'd take a good artery hardening for that jolt that coffee gives me in the morning....

    not to mention coffee keeping me awake at work well into the day.

  2. never stopped me on Inability to Type Not a Disability · · Score: 0

    or CmdrTaco. I think they took a little jab at Taco.

    It's from the never-stopped-CmdrTaco-Before-Dept. That's freakin hilarious

  3. karma whore on Constants Not Constant? · · Score: 0

    slaon article I read this morning about the same thing: http://www.salon.com/news/wire/2001/08/15/light/in dex.html For those who refuse to have anything to do with NYT

  4. It's funner when.... on Blow Stuff Up, Indoors · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    This sucks. It's funner when they don't have these rooms. It remindsme of the local guy who blew out a wall of his house *along with his arms and most of his face*

    The best part was when the police went to "dispose" of the extra ordinance. About every cop in a 200 mile radius showed up, and the shockwave from blast broke 90 percent of their windows!! Some heads rolled for that, but you didn't have to worry about going 85 mph in a school zone for about a week.

  5. bad on Be Buyout Looms Closer · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This may be good or bad actually..... fp?

  6. Root access is the problem on Congress Discovers Peer-to-Peer Porn · · Score: 1

    The study takes issue at the fact that you can download these for free, and start using them. thus bypassing any parental contorls. Here's an idea, don't give your kid root access!!!

    Oh wait, most parents probably had the kids install the blocking software for them.

  7. Re:Fission vs. fusion on Ozone Hole Will Heal, Say British Scientists · · Score: 1

    If everyone really want to argue about fission, they should at least review the articles one newer generations on fission power. My personal favorite is the IFR (Integral Fast Reactor). It's incredible how much more advanced this design is than the one's currently in use. I also have presented this option as a renewable energy source for years, and have always been able to prove that it is renewable. Currently, all of our "renewable" energy sources except for geothermal energy derive their power from the sun, wind needs the sun, hydro requires rainfall, etc. However, using only the nuclear materials from decommisioned nuclear weapons in the US now, a system of IFR's supplying the world's power would last longer than the sun. Not to mention the fact that it can use the waste from the "older" nuclear reactors as fuel, and you can even find an extremely abundant amount of fuel in sea water. This reactor's waste is extremely safe, and the operation of the reactor is very safe also. Just a thought. Mike
