Specifically, I was talking about the actual.torrent files, not the content. My comment was in response to seeing slashdot comments linking to a.torrent file on nerdtv.net which wasn't meant for public distribution (and as far as I know, wouldn't actually get you the interview since no one was seeding). The.torrent links I posted above are the ones to use.
The real torrents will be up soon. The one you found was a test torrent not intended for public consumption. I'll post when the real torrents are available. There will be 9 torrents, one for each of the files they are serving.
Sorry, but if you break into my wireless network (even if you are just "mapping" how many open networks there are), you've just committed a crime.
Connecting to an open AP is pretty far from "breaking" anything.
Furthermore, if you think mapping networks should be considered a crime, then network discovery becomes a crime. Might as well outlaw arp requests at that point; they are far more invasive than passively listening for wireless beacon signals.

I have NEVER seen a p2p system address this issue.
How much work would it be for someone who knows SGML and DocBook to "convert" existing ASCII and HTML documents? It seems that the hardest part of writing doucmentation is writing the documentation. The formatting should just be formalities. Maybe a concerned individual could go aroud and do some of these conversions.
Also, has anyone tried to use LyX to write their docs? I believe there is good DocBook support now. Maybe that could be used to do the "conversions".
Most of the comments thus far seem to be concerned with the feasability of this becoming a deployable technology.
Remember, as the original article submitter pointed out, the nifty thing is it shows there is another mechanism for finding higher temperature superconductors besides the copper-oxide ceramics previously discovered.
Of course, I've always valued myself more as theorist than producer.:)
The article explains the current theory: "at 100 to 700 meters below the surface of Mars, the pressure of
the planet's crust would be great
enough to unfreeze carbon dioxide,
which could have caused the surface
features."
It's possible that the pressure under the crust is suitable for creating a liquid carbon dioxide which could have flowed over the martian surface while boiling.
My question is: Is it normal for this quantity of carbon dioxide to be trapped inside the crust of a planet??
You do owe me and everyone in our society something: you owe us being responsible to not reduce our quality of life.
Running your company within "legal limits" is a complete cop-out to being responsible to your society. It is impossible for a legal policy to be drafted by which a company acting within its limits would ensure the "social responsibility" I'm speaking of. It is the RESPONSIBILITY of the company to not impinge on the quality of life and rights of the people it is sharing society with. It is not the responsibility of the policy makers, particularly since that task is impossible.
It's not a company's *job* to be social responsible. It's a company's *job* to be ecomomically responsible
ANY member of society has the "job" of being socially responsible. Because a company has economic interests does not curtail its responsibilities to the society it is functioning in.
Sure, exposure to mutagens doesn't do the body good either, but short of living in a cave eating hydroponic foods (and watch out for radon gas...nasty thatif you are living in a cave), you aren't going to avoid them.
Just because you can't avoid it entirely means nothing about whether or not you should attempt avoiding most. Uncomfortable events will always occur, but it doesn't stop you from trying to avoid them.
I worries me that you think these life forms are something be controlled. They too will evolve to take advantage of their environment. We have to remember that creation is not control by any means. (see Jurassic Park)

We just put up the *real* torrents. The other nerdtv.net torrent file was never intended for public consumption.

This is exactly the issue that FreeNet addresses.

Carbon dioxide does not exist in a liquid state.
It can, but only at high pressure.
The article explains the current theory: "at 100 to 700 meters below the surface of Mars, the pressure of the planet's crust would be great enough to unfreeze carbon dioxide, which could have caused the surface features."
It's possible that the pressure under the crust is suitable for creating a liquid carbon dioxide which could have flowed over the martian surface while boiling.

In Vermont, school teachers are being required to have FBI background checks before being hired.
You can read about it in one of the local Vermont newspapers.
