  1. Re:I dont get it... on Thoughts on the Space Elevator · · Score: 4, Funny

    You make a good point. nanotube based teleporters would be faster and more cost-effective than a space elevator!

    I say we put $12bn or so into nanotube powered teleporters. who's with me!?

  2. Re:Help me out here on Reintroduce Megafauna to North America? · · Score: 1

    and "reindeer"

  3. Re:larry wachowski? on V For Vendetta Delayed until March 2006 · · Score: 1

    I saw that movie! wasn't it VI Wachowski though?

  5. Re:It is E=mc^2 on One Hundred Years of E=MC2 · · Score: 1

    Wait, wait, you're criticizing a guy for being too geeky? And you're posting this on slashdot?

    Yeah um, pot? this is kettle. you're black.

    jackass.

  6. Re:Why replace meat? on Large Scale Production of Artificial Meat · · Score: 1

    That's just ridiculous. It just is. Or are cadbury eggs wrong because they resemble real eggs?

    The only way to eliminate something people like is to perfectly replace it (or make it better) -- for example, the "butter" at movie theaters, or the "cheese" on nachos.

  7. Re:Sounds like "Galapagos" on AI Researchers Produce New Kind of PC Game · · Score: 1

    sooooo a roomba?

  8. Re:Excellent on Alice Movie Off The Ground · · Score: 1

    Given the reviews/rating at IMDB, it may not be a "lucky" thing at all!

  9. anyone edit anymore? on Apple Making a Spreadsheet? · · Score: -1, Redundant

    try "hole" not "whole" -- spellchecker isn't enough, use your brain.

  10. Re:light curve method on Rocky Planet Discovered · · Score: 1

    jupiter takes almost 12 years to go around the sun. its a pretty crummy method for anything besides large close-to-the-star gas giants, unfortunately.

  11. Re:Keep brain fit with Alcohol on Keep Fit Program For The Brain · · Score: 1

    i do remember, but it doesnt make any sense at all then.

  12. Re:Keep brain fit with Alcohol on Keep Fit Program For The Brain · · Score: 2, Funny

    um...wouldnt that be 10 kinds of cars in the world?

  13. Seriously? on Web-based Earthquake Forecasts for California · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Why do i get the feeling the map is going to basically look exactly the same every day. little greener around parkfield, SF and LA, mostly blue everywhere else.

    then when an earthquake hits, it will go orangey there, because duh, aftershocks.

    is it actually going to go red before a quake EVER? is there any proof the system "works" even half as well as weather forecasting?

  14. So help me out.... on BPL: The Internet's Fool's Gold · · Score: 4, Interesting

    what did the FCC have to gain by pushing a crap technology, one that violates their own rules and interferes with their sphere of influence?

    It wasnt clear to me in the article why the FCC was so high on the tech...

  17. You ever get the feeling... on No Need For Trek Anymore · · Score: 1

    that these days OSC is just short for OSCar the Grouch?

  18. The Only Atari Jaguar Post on For Love of The Game · · Score: 1

    Alien vs. Predator. On the Jaguar. Big speakers. Great graphics. First time I played, when I heard a Predator do that growl/cluck thing right next to me, or when I turned a corner and ran into an Alien...scariest gaming moment I've ever had.

  19. Re:What is so great about the Hitchhiker's Guide? on Hitchhiker's Guide Quandary Phase Starts May 3rd · · Score: 1

    Well, that's YOUR opinion anyway.

  22. Re:naked word on Senator Clinton Slams GTA · · Score: 1

    thanks for the input. 8)

    1) google can, and does

    2)i can't put up tons of reviews myself, that isnt the point.

    3)i agree with point 3, its on the list of things to do but i just havent had time. 8( I'm kinda over all of it now. i had a bunch of people who said they'd populate it with tons of reviews (addresssing #2) but they never did. Flaked out on me.

    Sure can. The bible. Do as it teaches, and you will receive everlasting life.

  24. Re:Brief synposis for a newbie? on WoW Reaches 1.5 Million Subscribers · · Score: 1

    To be fair, much of the WoW PvP isn't implemented yet. DaoC has been around a long time to refine its PvP.

    To be fair, its absurd that the WoW PvP isn't implemented yet, since it was a major selling point.

  25. Re:The Placebo effect is controversial on 13 Things That Do Not Make Sense · · Score: 1

    I think you mean Ashlee Simpson, or Jaime Lynn Spears.
