  1. Fragile X Syndrome != Autism on Autism Reversed in Mice at MIT Lab · · Score: 1

    This is a treatment for Fragile X Syndrome, in which autism COULD be a result, but not always. You can find a good comparison at the National Fragile X Foundation

    Fragile X has a very defined set of characteristics, mental and physical.

    My brother suffers from Fragile X and I have taken care of him for most of his life. We participated in a study at the UC Davis Mind Institute in which they recently completely a very comprehensive research program into the disorder. It's only within the last 10-15 years they've really understood enough to properly diagnose patients with Fragile X.

  2. Re:I'm pissed. on Grand Theft Auto Led Teen to Kill · · Score: 1

    When will it be "Parents irresponsible with how they raised their child leads to deaths"?

    When the parents have as deep of pockets as companies like WalMart, Sony, Take-Two, and Gamestop.

    These lawsuits are not about blame, it's about making money.

  3. Re:So... on Skywalker Ranch Wines · · Score: 1

    Obviously a strongly wooden taste. Maybe we should blame the casking director.

    Or his actors... ;)

  4. Re:Not exactly exciting news. on Rings Digital Dailies Circled Globe via iPod · · Score: 1

    ...and to think he can do it ALL with THIS.

  5. Why limit yourself... on Trying Your Hand at Level Design? · · Score: 1

    to just learning and mastering level design? While level design is an art form in and of itself, you will be much more marketable if you have skills in other areas of game development. Get one of the cheap engines, like Torque - $100(http://www.garagegames.com) or even a free one like Crystal Space 3D (http://crystal.sourceforge.net) and learn as much as you can about the overall process of making games. There's TONS of them available (3D Engine List) and you'll be one step up on everyone else. Soon you'll be on your way to making the real money in the game industry... which is being a producer. Just my 2 cents...

  6. What the hell... on Robotic Massage, Anyone? · · Score: 1

    is that thing on their home page (Far right in the middle)???

    http://www.xs4all.nl/~notnot/index.html

    If that's what it does to you... I want two! :)

  7. And I thought... on From Turkey Guts to Fuel Oil · · Score: 3, Funny

    petro products stunk... I bet this smells much more foul... ;)

  8. With all these resources... on George Lucas Consolidates his Empire · · Score: 0

    hopefully they'll do something akin to the Agent Scene in the upcoming Matrix Movie. I can just imagine a saber wielding Jedi and a room full of Jar Jars!!! Oh, the sweetness!

  9. Re:Could it be... on Worldwide Focus On Going To The Moon · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Since you're so worried about grammar and spelling... it's "PROVEN", you dumb ass!

    At least I've got enough balls to post with my account and not constantly hide behind the Anonymous Coward. Or, is it because you don't want everyone to know exactly whom it is that seems to know so much about flaming TRANSSEXUAL monkey-butt rapists? You've got a lot of anger man... you need to get laid or something! Oh, I guess that's where the flaming TRANSSEXUAL monkey-butts come in. So whatever it is you think I am, don't get any ideas!

    If you're going to post a correction on my spelling, next time make sure you get yours right, smart guy.

  10. Re:Could it be... on Worldwide Focus On Going To The Moon · · Score: 1

    Wow... someone is taking this awfully personal! I'm just raising questions, and you're acting like I said the holocaust never happened!

    Also, that was nice of you to share your "devine knowledge" while hidden as an Anonymous Coward.

  11. Re:Could it be... on Worldwide Focus On Going To The Moon · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'm not saying the space program never existed... I'm mearly stating facts along with theory. Don't you find it kind of odd that after 33 YEARS and sending probes to Mars and beyond, NASA has not yet PROVEN that the Apollo Missions' equipment is up there?? I do...

  12. Could it be... on Worldwide Focus On Going To The Moon · · Score: 1

    NASA and the DOD want to "return" to the moon first, to put in the place the equipment that supposedly landed there in 1969? I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist, and I'd love to be proven wrong, but I still find it kinda strange the INCREDIBLE odds that were beaten in order to land on the moon in the first place. Especially when they couldn't even be duplicated in a controlled environment. Not to mention the fact that the US is the only ones who have done it. Could be that current technology can actually get us (the US) there now, and we don't want someone beating us to it, only to prove we never actually went. Just a thought...

  13. Re:Where is this illegal? on RIAA to Sue You Now · · Score: 1

    You're forgetting the fact that with a Library only 1 person can check out and view that book at the same time. If that were the case with music, then there wouldn't be an issue. It's the fact that literally thousands of people and download and use the same song for the same source.
