I wonder if the Professional Association of English Majors lets chem majors the join their society as "honorary losers" since that might be the only major less useful than an english one.
Personally, I never learned any practical info in chemistry labs... Come to think of it, high school chemistry is all you're ever going to need unless you're going to be a chem engineer.

When the dollar is high, it fucks manufacturing jobs in the US and leaves us with the trade deficit. But I bet you loved it last time you went on vacation.
I think tariffs are a good thing in moderation... it evens out the abilities of foreign companies to undercut american jobs....but everything has it consequences...
It's hard to generate such loads when you have no "wings", extrememly high aerodynamic loading (very low surface area, very high mass), and airflow separation due to the shockwaves generated by high speed flight.
I won't comment about hypersonic dynamics because I have no experience in the field, but lifting bodies have such high aerodynamic loading anyway, turbulence has little relative effect.
It looked painful when Beavis blew Butthead from 2 dimensions to 3 dimensions on the Celebrity Deathmatch episode...
If the 4-D glasses are packaged with a fire extinguisher or another compressed air tank with a menacing looking hose (e.g. colonoscopy probe) watch out!
If you've ever worked in the aviation industry, you might see just how appropriate BWOD is.
Of course you've all seen the blue water in the toilets, but imagine if you were the guy dumping it from the aircraft and there was a leak in the drain hose. It's called a "blue shower" and it sucks. I once saw a guy get *completely* drenched while dumping a old DC-8 lav: this cargo-hauler's lav was only dumped when the aircraft returned to base, so it was quite the scene. It started out as a slow trickle, so he reached up to re-seat the hose fitting, (so his hands are up above his head and he is looking into it, all on top of a tall ladder). The hose broke loose and it was a 5 gallon deluge straight to the face. Possibly one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
I once had blue juice (clean, from the fresh tank) sprayed into my eyes when someone disconnected the refill hose with the pump on, but a friend of mine got a bit of a face/mouthful of the dirty stuff when a hose parted and the stuff sprayed out onto the ramp where he was standing.
Fallacy 10: Open Source is the Answer
- Economic model is doubtful
- Source code is useless
- Motivation for Open Source is inappropriate for most software
- Nerd culture is counter-productive
Wow, that only stings if you don't understand the sarcasm/cynicism he is using throughout the lecture.
Fallacy 2: Computers Allow People to Do things They Could Not Do Otherwise
- All you need is a good work processor to create a great doc
- All you need is a great spreadsheet to make accurate sales
predictions
- All you need is...
ARE YOU PEOPLE BLIND OR JUST UNINTELLIGENT (this includes the people who have mod'ed these stupid comments up)...
A good word processer is NOT "all you need" and source code is NOT "useless"
I know Microsoft Excel certainly helped me show the CEO of Megacorp how to accurately predict sales of black dildos
I have found the way Mr. Satchell switches from kilograms to pounds to be very unsettling. In his footnotes he should have included the mathematic conversion for those of us Americans who cannot tolerate the foreign method of measuring mass, or perhaps the conversion in parenthesis next to the given number, i.e. "360kg (794 lb) Gorilla."
Furthermore, those of us who are not familiar with the gorillas he mentioned have no idea what to think! Is a 360 kilogram (794 lb) gorilla a large gorilla or just an average gorilla. There should be a standard gorilla mass reference submitted to the ISO for standardization. I hate having to do a Google search for gorillas just so I can understand a question and answer article that I thought was about Microsoft.
The stuff that turns oil into clogged arteries. The stuff that made the Hindenburg erupt into a fiery death. The stuff that reacts with oxygen to make a fireball and with carbon to make a horrendous fart. The stuff that killed my teacher in 1986 could someday power your car, office building, house, cell phone, even your hearing aid.
using that IR port, potty-mouth-itis would spread like wildfire....
Put a few of these infected rats for sale on ebay, which are then snapped up by collectors who place the potty-mouth furby into their vast collection. The rest would be history.
of course it will slow down like a cable line when the neighborhood is online, so you'll see DSL advertisements where some drunk redneck in South Carolina is running out of his mobile home in his underwear screaming how he is going to lynch ya'll bastards fer slowin' up his sister/wife's apple ][e as he cusses about spillin' his natural light 40oz beer just seconds before being electrocuted at the top of a service pole while trying to cut the power lines to the rest of the trailer park with a rusty pair of bolt cutters.

Not to cast blame, but I seen the Dome of the Rock playing a big role in the next millenium... And the outcome will change the human psyche for eternity...

I must say that I know nothing of D&D, but I do understand the personality of the majority of people who play imaginitive role playing games. One of the strengths of introversion is a vivid and active imagination. However, this colorful imagination often leads to disappointment for the introvert because very few things will ever be as great as they imagine them. Whether it be the first sexual experience after dreaming about sex for 16 years, seeing a movie after reading the book, or watching a movie based on one's favorite RPG, the results are often disapointing. For those who do not have such an active imagination, doing something for the first time will often be better than they have ever imagined -but only because it is-
I think one major target is none other than our good friend spam... If the system is as successful as I believe Slashdot moderation has become, Usenet will be useful once again. I'm sure there are many people, like myself, that have abandoned Usenet in the past few years because of the garbage that has saturated the system..
I, however, don't know how well it will work for entire websites... will it rate pages or machines, or entire domains?

you probably voted republican anyway

It's just not a big deal.
once you get above the jetstream and any mountain waves, it's smooth sailing up there.
Besides, this thing has no wings and a very high mass. But of course, the HALE aircraft don't look like the studiest things

You wouldn't believe how many people call the "Citation-X" the "Citation ex" instead of "Citation 10"
Especially since there is a Citation I, II, III, V, VI, and VII...
The Cit10 is the worlds fastest bizjet btw.
