Riiiiight. Slashdot readers are always bored by our dearest sci-fi fantasies becoming reality.:-) I couln't possibly read more than four or five thousand pages a year on this stuff.
I have lamented that point myself. That car would be attractive if they had only continued the arc of the roof line with glass to form a little hatchback.
Which is not to say I am unimpressed! Heck of a cool car.

Spider Robinson posited this kind of life in Telempath, a way-neato "vengence is stupid" story filled with the usual Robinson themes: Brotherly love, Tolerance and Good Weed.
I once developed a Callcenter Training Utility for our company in the early 90's using such a grant scheme. It used genetic algorithms to generate simulated customer complaints that were _very_ realistic, even to the point of using sample voices to "whine". Of course, the helpdesk trainees hated it...

I had read that Heinlein *hated* his Nehemiah Scudder character (who later went on to form a really pleasant theocracy in "If This Goes On...") so much that he was not able to write about him. This should be interesting.:-)
... actually my wife usually says: "Boy, that crown roast of pork looks tasty. Can you pick up some cumin and sea salt on the way home?" and I gain another 20 kilos.

"There has grown up in the minds of certain groups in this country the notion that because a man or corporation has made a profit out of the public for a number of years, the government and the courts are charged with the duty of guaranteeing such profit in the future, even in the face of changing cirucmstances and contrary to public interest. This strange doctrine is not supported by statute or common law. Neither individuals nor coroprations have any righ to come into court and ask that the clock of history be stopped, or turned back."
This is very positive. The author is not fighting the change, but facilitating it by narrowing the focus to a single distro and a limited number of applications. Sensible.

The re-arang being, of course, a "slow" orang-utan.
Well, that fell flat.

But hey, the mewling was featureful.

That is quite a good idea! Librarians are fast becoming database mavens anyway.

Does anyone have a mirror? Oh, and if you could tar or zip one of the video files I'd be even more happy! Our proxy filters out vid and sound files.
"Correct."
They are waiting for Cit/UX groupware to be finished so they can see the right way to do it.
Well, if Hedy Lamarr can invent spread-spectrum radio, I guess Pam Anderson can code. (VIP is rather wry on occaison...)
