    Where are you at hummassa? Brazil? I know folks over there were pursuing ethanol pretty agressively at one point. I am genuinely curious. What companies produce the ethanol? Private or Govt. owned?

    It's always wise to avoid Brad's Pitts.

    I am not too sure I agree with either statement. The Pebble Bed Reactor shows great promise.

    Can you post an example of said script? It sounds pretty handy- and even if it doesn't fit everyone's needs, the "schooling" may help.

    I thought it was about the most accurate ever.

    Have you ever been madly in love with someone who is kept from you by circumstance? That first encounter ain't usually the stuff dreams are made of - I have seen a good facimile of America Shaftoe's bemused smile from my wife after a nekkid ending to a long seperation.

    I have scoured the links and can find no actual clear images of this supposedly beautiful hardware.

  21. Re:Nice Zealotry on Massachusetts Builds Open-Source Public Repository · · Score: 1

    Just curious: What were the pieces of free software that y'all had so much trouble with? It'd be nice to know, and perhaps the maintainers could be made aware of the difficulties and fix it in future releases. Granted, it won't help you now, but surely you'd like to help the next bunch who look at it...

  22. Re:Legal precedent ? on Anti-piracy Vigilantes Tracking P2P Users · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually that depends on the state. A guy I went to college with who had a "non-traditional herbal incense" business (sold joints out of his apartment) reportedly asked everyone who came in if they were police. The arresting officers assured him that they were not. :-) Sorry Fat Dan, away to jail with you.

    One should look around and see what is fact and what is stoner urban legand before embarking on a life of dipshittery... of course, one tends to preclude the other.

  23. This particular item seems a bit skeevy... on Personal Experiences with HomeCS? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    From the HomeCS website under the "Companies" link:
    The following is a list of employers who have historically hired telecommuters. Although they may not all have jobs posted with us currently, these and companies like these are examples of companies that could hire you via HomeCS.com.

    ...which sounds somewhat like a load. I work for one of the companies listed, and they do all their hiring through a company-owned hiring service. There are *no* full-time telecommuters in the division I am in, it's a "couple of days a week" thang.

    Of course, I could be wrong...

    Perhaps the fact that there are a mess of good sci-fi writers around now who happen to have a uterus has somthing to do with it.
