For reading the CD, what dot density is needed on a flatbed scanner to capture all the dots on a CD? Let's see... Bit size = 52 micro inches which is about 7,211 per square inch. Let's see.. a quick look finds one Epson scanner with 3200x6400 dpi resolution. Close. Probably need at least 14,822 dpi to get several pixels per bit.
Right. This simply traps moving particles within a magnetic field, and air molecules get bumped by the quickly moving particles. This is a curtain made of matter. A "force field" would affect objects without touching it with matter.
Similar technology is already used in store freezers and at some building entrances. Fans blow air through vents at one side (or above) an opening and suck it in on the other side. This curtain of blowing air separates the air on both sides, allowing drastic temperature differences on each side of the curtain.
Next time you reach into a refrigerated or frozen food display which does not have a door, feel for a breeze across your arm.
Given that the Linux Kernel is very well documented, from the standpoint of which line of code was added when and by who. If the Linux kernel had those features (or code) in it, before Unixware did, then who's to say they didn't steal it from us?
Linux supporters, however, were quick to question the meaning of the evidence. âoeCan SCO prove that this code came from SCO to Linux, and not from Linux to SCO?â asked Jon âoeMaddogâ Hall, executive director of Linux International (Nashua, N.H.), a Linux advocacy organization.
Can 1stflight prove that these concepts came from himself rather than Maddog, and not from Maddog to 1stflight?

The "Lensman" series by E.E. "Doc" Smith.
The first book is "Triplanetary". I think the others all have "Lensman" in the title (other than "Masters of the Vortex", set in the Lensman universe but not part of the series plot line).
The "Lens" is an artifact, a telepathic amplifier and universal translator keyed to the individual Lensman who owns it, and will kill anyone else who tries to wear it.
LOL, somehow I don't think that an ark (regardless of the size) will get you out of this one.
It depends whether the ark's orbit intersects the path of the asteroid.
the '60,000 megaton blast' would create 400 foot waves along the east coast
I think in this situation, "coast" is a little irrelevant, as the scale of an area "near" the ocean is not applicable. Eastern side of the North American continent is a better description.
The highest point in Florida is a little under 400 feet, and most is well under that, so that would be hit really hard. Topography of southern Florida. The article says 200 foot wave is the minimum along the East coast...and I don't know if running opposite to the Gulf stream would affect the height.
Not that elsewhere nearby is much safer. Another bad place to be would be the WEST side of the Appalachians where the waves happen to reach over it -- as that flash flood would sweep downhill for another huge distance.

You already read his poem.
Don't encourage him to write another, no matter how short it is.
I want a robot which can fetch me a cold drink, not swim in it.
It doesn't really need to track objects to be able to run when the lights go on until it is in a dark place.
Why is he full of Gecko glue?
You don't know the story behind that?
I thought everyone knew.
The way he tells the story is what really made him famous, not his being full of it.
Until a scanner with sufficient resolution exists, the wavelengths can not be judged to not match.

I think that now we're supposed to write the factual headline.
Similar technology is already used in store freezers and at some building entrances. Fans blow air through vents at one side (or above) an opening and suck it in on the other side. This curtain of blowing air separates the air on both sides, allowing drastic temperature differences on each side of the curtain.
Next time you reach into a refrigerated or frozen food display which does not have a door, feel for a breeze across your arm.
Note that when measured in Gold Sparrows, the temperature is only twice as large as room temperature.
I think the self-storage business has gotten too specialized. First you could rent a storage area for your stuff, then your boat, then your car...

Wouldn't the North Atlantic Ocean be a better representation of the Sun?
The nearest star is represented by the AOL CD on the corner of 4th and Main in Springfield. The 65,000 miles are measured in a spiral around Earth.
Next year: Comets.
Depends whether it is the original or not.
Maybe our solar system is just a copy of another, for display or experimentation.
What is there to report when nothing changes, or when nobody even thinks of choosing? Headline: "Man walks down a street where there is no dog."
"SCO's servers and other office solutions are so reliable, some customers tell us that once they're installed, they require virtually no maintenance whatever!"
you be the judge... hehe
Um..
I'll agree SCO's servers require virtually no maintenance.
The SCO web servers are running Linux.

"As usual, the Grunt Rash Band will host the Saturday Virtual Party on channel 82 at 7 PM. Appear as you are, dance wherever you are."
Obviously, you build it by leaning over the Egg side. Then, for a while, you'll start building it.
Yes, it would be so much simpler if there was only one source for news. Only one link would be needed in that article.
The first book is "Triplanetary". I think the others all have "Lensman" in the title (other than "Masters of the Vortex", set in the Lensman universe but not part of the series plot line).
The "Lensman" series is a set of books concerning the most noble set of Good Guys ever to run loose in Science Fiction. A Lensman is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent; and Well-Educated, Athletic, and Relentless, to boot.
The "Lens" is an artifact, a telepathic amplifier and universal translator keyed to the individual Lensman who owns it, and will kill anyone else who tries to wear it.
