I find it interesting that Bond never has gadgets left over. It must be a corollary to Chekov's Gun; "Any device or tool given to a character must be utilized or expended."
I'd go to tvtropes to try to figure it out, but I would like to be at least a little productive for the rest of the week.
Well, we might be idiots, but that's not the problem. It's a set of three very large superconducting coils, custom wound on-site in the 1990s, built into cryostats that can't be disassembled, and being moved as a set of monolithic units. They were never designed or intended to be moved, and significant engineering work has gone into determining the mechanical loads they can be safely subjected to.
How much would it cost to build another one at say, Fermilab?
Here's a hint: that information is in the article.
A well done poll of a 1000 people is actually pretty acurte. The Law of Large Numbers kicks in well shy of that. Apparently a stats class is not necessary to be a Slashdot editor.
How would they have time with all of the journalism and English courses they obviously take?
No, Telecoms want users to PAY for more data and not use it because it saturates their networks. For someone who works in the industry you seem to know very little about it.
and you still didn't answer my question.

Well, there's a special word for getting paid for NOT doing something.
It's "extortion."
Speaking as a government contractor, I can assure you there's at least one more way to get paid for not doing something.
If it is possible to structure their business to minimize the amount of tax they pay, then why shouldn't they?
Or, conversely, if it is possible to get lots of awesome sex by fucking married women, why shouldn't I?
Why shouldn't you? You didn't take any vows or make any promises.
It wasn't just DOS, although that was its stronghold. There were also versions available for: Unix, Macintosh, Windows, and OS/2.
Hmm, didn't know this though: Lotus 1-2-3 : "The charting/graphing routines were written in Forth by Jeremy Sagan (son of Carl Sagan)"
I believe that reference to Forth should be, "the fabulous Forth language."
While you're busy looking up stuff the old timers lived through, you may want to check out an oldfag meme: "DOS/Windows (depending on the time frame) ain't done until Lotus won't run"
If your mother thinks CSI is real, she's got bigger issues than we can address here on slashdot.
So, 3.1?
No, they'll want to emphasize the 1, so obviously 3.11.

Thousands of dead children and adults are a small price to pay for my freedom from sensible gun control.
Tribal warfare over exclusive drug distribution areas ain't my fucking problem.

What does 'bimbo' add to the discussion that wouldn't have been covered by, as just one possibility, the word 'idiot'?
I read AVFM and other MHRA sites daily, and even I have to wonder what your word choice brings to the discussion.
Or, maybe vaccines aren't effective period. Just a thought.
I always wondered if Jenny McCarthy had an account on slashdot.
...until the total length of video on YouTube is greater than the age of the universe?
Considering the universe is 6000 years old, 6000/100 HPM= 60 minutes.
I read this in the voice of Sheriff J.W. Pepper (see The Man with the Golden Gun and Live and Let Die)
Buford T. Justice is also acceptable.
So they made 22-caliber torpedoes also?
.17 HMR
Perhaps it's worth noting that, when the Second Amendment was instituted, gunsmithing and the manufacture of firearms was a cottage industry.
The Beretta family begs to differ.

Van drivers don't know what mirrors are.
That's the past. I was there before. i want to see new stuff, like the stuff in front of me.
What's your major malfunction numbnuts, didn't your mommy and daddy love you enough?
Yeah, I've got a 'Howell torpedo' myself. Banned by the Geneva Convention as a weapon of mass destruction.

I don't think facebook was ever cool.
He meant 'cool' as in the temperature of a corpse.
Practically ALL rapists have male genitalia... let's outlaw having male genitalia!
I guess we finally know what Jessica Valenti's slashdot uid is...
Rwanda.
MInd you, they were big knives. Technically you'd probably class them as swords.
Oh, those evil assault knives with the shoulder thing that goes up and the bayonet mounts? Yeah. Only police and military should have those.
I call it "profiling".
Quis custodiet ipsos custodet?
Rorschach.
Here at the Church of the FSM, we do posthumorous baptisms!
Huh. Who knew that LDS worshiped FSM?
Cash is like a credit card made of fabric, but what's this 'watch' you speak of?
