"Desecration of the dead is a war crime under Article 15 of the Geneva Conventions, and is certainly not something sanctioned by DARPA, Cyclone or RTI."
The Dead... So I guess eating the living is still OK...
Not sanctioned... If, down the road, some entity does sanction desecration of the dead (or doesn't give a shit) the product already has this capability. Nice!
OK, the crime crossed international borders. It effectively happened in BOTH places. That is why the US and UK are deciding in which country prosecution will take place. Extradition isn't just for people who commit a crime and flee the country...
Quote from an Interview with Steve Bovis from December 2006

Gordon: So have any more recent games influenced your current project?
Steve: The project is more influenced by film and literature rather than other games, we want the experience to be as original as possible and as such we have made a calculated effort to keep away from other games in the genre. Limbo of the Lost is an experience first and foremost, secondly wrapped up in a game media and genre. Right...
...If we will encounter the same problem when we finally figure out how to replace the analog headphones with direct nerve stimulation. Assuming that the hearing loss observed in the study was due to hair cell damage (most common from loud noise), the point of damage would be eliminated. I have to assume that there is an upper limit to the direct nerve stimulation as well. I wonder though, would the listener be able to tolerate levels high enough to do damage to the nerves themselves?
Do you find it annoying when self-important prats point out everything that they found wrong with the recreation of a myth instead of just enjoying the show?

Our elected representatives are legitimately concerned that youngsters today aren't as interested in science as in days past,
It seems to me that many "youngsters" aren't interested in education in general.
I do not see, however, what this has to do with technology related legislation...

Well...yes but wouldn't this really screw up Xmas?
I wonder what the legal implications of "losing a server" are! Maybe Napster should "lose" a few servers that way!
Well..I guess I'll put away my Z-SID book!
