  1. Mutant 59: the Plastic Eaters. I read this book as a kid in the '70's. It scared me a bit to think how much we depend on plastic and how bad off we'd be if something came along and destroyed that for us.

  2. Pay no attention to the anti-conservative posters. Their hateful, spittle-flecked, diatribes are simply the result of never associating with anyone who might have a different philosophy, and a political viewpoint that is informed by the editorial pages of The Toronto Star. They so abhor Steven Harper that they completely blow even the slightest policy change out of all proportion, while jabbing their fingers in his direction and shouting “See! See! He's evil! He's a dictator! He's Hitler!”. Sigh. I'm a small “c” conservative but I won't be voting conservative in this election. Not because of anything the frothing think-alikes said, but because of legislation the Conservatives passed known as Bill C-51. It's a bill that grants greater powers to police authorities to target activities that could “undermine the security of Canada” as well as activities that are detrimental to Canada’s interests. This goes too far in my opinion, so they won't get my vote. And, just to be spiteful, I'm going to screw the Liberals too.

  3. 1 word - dialup on Why AltaVista Lost Ground To Google Sooner Than Expected · · Score: 1

    When Google first came on the scene, most people accessed the internet by dialup. Google's simple page loaded faster. Thats it. There is no other reason. Anyone who doesn't remember the "dialup" internet cannot comment on why one page was more popular than another,.
