I felf very sorry for the young teenagers that came with their church group. They were being raised by liars.
I was raised by such dolts. I believed it until about the age of 17. Then I broke out in a small way, and my world changed. Trust me, one of those kids will someday grow up to hold a doctorate in evolution.
I don't challenge my elders when they bring up the subject, we just agree to disagree, knowing that their young college-boy is pretty bright and really good at math, so he's probably right. Let it be.
It's time to organize for a planned flop. No more Star Wars. This crap is ruining my image of the ORIGINAL movies. No more t-shirts, no more action figures, no more posters.
They've taken a movie that should have remained forever obscure and forgotten, and made it almost... popular. At least the some of the MST movies (like Godzilla and Hercules) have a campy retro value... Manos, however, is just a nightmare - and now it's on DVD!!
Imagine what you could do with Cesium OS running on a ternary computer. Even better, a distributed system of Beowulf clusters running Cesium-based ternary processes! And perhaps a Natlie Portman wall paper, while looking at your fake Britney Spears porno at 3am, eating a taco with an old X-Files on television in the background...
(Ok I'll ask you since you seem to know about this stuff...) Ever heard the idea of caging atoms or molecules within buckyballs? I'm just wondering if much research is being done on that. It would be neat to see a whole new class of materials. That's what I would call human progress!
The drop in crime is likely a factor. With so few crime scenes being photographed, perhaps Congress should act to fund criminals and provide some relief to the photo industry.
You make me think that we ourselves are such creations, since we are doing what the things you're crreating are doing. Doesn't quite answer where we came from, but it affirms where we're going.
General Education requiremnets for graduation are a scam at my school. They have nothing to do with what I want to learn, and I take them bitterly, selling out my values just to get a good grade.
(You should take all those broad courses in high school. That's where you figure out what you want to do in life, and in college you go do it!)
The only real reason they demand these courses is to keep students like me in school for 5 years, since many colleges are run like a business, not a traditional place to learn and train for your interest.
People don't like needles. They hurt. And if you get an incompetent nurse, he or she can kill you with so much as an air bubble accidentally entering your blood. Rarely, a contaminated needle will infect a patient or a health care worker.
And of course there were thousands of deaths from AIDS infected blood in the 1980s. Who says that some other blood-transmitted disease isn't lurking that we haven't discovered yet?
I only trust the safety of our blood supply as much as I trust the lab technicians to properly test and handle it. Many of them are highly skilled at cheating their annual drug tests.
Woa, who said anything about color movies? Sure the Technicolor Corporation claims to be making progress with their techniques, but I seriously doubt that anything will come of it.
No, what I was thinking of is more of an interactive experience, that's what movie goers want, according to the best research. Think lasers. Think fog machines, right there in the theatre!
What we need is someone to sell this technology. Someone who's bad... and daring. Someone who can dance, and sing, and get the whole family out for a magical evening together!
Imagine if you had a system, where you used two movies, layed one on top of the other. It would look blury of course, but if the viewer were to wear a pair of expensive, high-tech filter glasses (having differently coloured lenses), a stereoscopic 3-D image could be achieved. I bet in 2 years time we could have a working proto-type, and then actually bring it to market within 10 years given the proper funding and agressive marketing.
... to think of harvesting metals for profit, instead researching the potential to de-toxify the environment, or even an organism that suffers from metal poisoning.
Granted, gold is extremely harmless to humans when ingested (relative to lead and mercury), but still...
... there are not captions, or explanation (theoretical or "proven") of how the chemical mechanism works! Unless it's so simple that it should be self-evident...
Could I use this technology to scout for hot babes? Can it recognise a super model? Besides face recognition, could it also identify a sweet piece of ass that I might be interested in talking to? What about boob-scanning capability? We need to use this technology wisely is all I'm saying.
No doubt that infernal vagabond is dancing about with his flower and his bauble, singing songs about volcanoes and baobab trees... I say leave the little wretch where he is, so we can all sleep without distraction!

Don't forget, an immortal cell is... cancer. That double-edged sword again...
Let's just hope they don't waffle on the issue.
Is it possible? Can you calculate and model such a thing?
I say we name it "Rosie" or "Oprah"....

None, nada, nil!
... a phone, that has no cord!
... a machine that does the work of 20 math-crunching calculators, in ONE SECOND!
... a decent story from timothy!

Imagine a Beowulf cluster of U.S. attacks on Afghanistan...
Wow.

Ok, I've never really trolled before but...
How long did he have to suck Steve Jobs' dick to get Apple off his back?

NASA has no balls, and now they come up with this...

Don't say that you have a girlfriend on slashdot. You lose a lot of credibility around here.
