A page is in Google's cache if it got indexed by the same. You find it using the 'site:' parameter combined with the right keywords... AFAIK there is no way to predict the url to the cached google document.
No, the page was not yet indexed/cached. I guess it won't ever, since it's URL contains more than two parameters (s and threadid) and google refuses to index active pages with more than one paramenter.
This is what I received just a couple of minutes after the first (above mentioned) mail:
Greetings from Amazon.com.
You recently received an e-mail from us regarding the Segway Human Transporter (also known as "Ginger" or "IT"). This e-mail was sent accidentally by an automated system and the information in it is incorrect.
In fact, there is no new information on Segway's
availability. Consumer versions of Segway Human Transporters are currently being piloted in various communities throughout the U.S. The Segway HT is expected to be released to the general consumer market in 2003.
We apologize for the confusion. We will keep your e-mail address on our list of customers who wish to be notified about this item.
Sincerely,
Amazon.com Customer Service

Europe (I live in Germany [cnn.com]) has MAJOR problems [spiegel.de] (German news site, but just browse the pics) with the weather. Only Germany has estimated damages of something around 50 billion dollars only caused by this flood after heavy rainfalls.
Weather is NOT just a question if you can have a BBQ on weekend.
Please ask your president to sign the Kyoto contracts, thanks.
As I've read in this thread and I think on their website, too, it is mainly a one way system and not used like a normal elevator on earth...
While something comes down, nothing can go up. It's faster to deorbit and reenter by falling, because the next cargo lift can happen concurrently. Since it takes four hours to get to lower orbit and about a week to reach higher orbits (36.000km or so) it would take too long to wait for the cabin that takes me down to seven11 to get a beer.
Please remember that the Space Elevators are unidirectional... once you are up at home, you can't come back to earth except you are using a parachute or wait at the next space shuttle bus stop...
To be sure that there is no prior art, would you recomment an 'open phase' or 'beta patent', a time where every paper or 'near patent', is available to the public to ensure that there is no prior art? Every product or patent seen after the release of the beta patent could be seen as patent infringement until no prior art can be found.
This could happen before you did all your steps, searches, research, etc., just before you put the last 'approved' stamp on it.
I know, this is not about copyrights but about trademarks, so mod me OT.
There is a VERY interesting case in Germany (yes, this is in europe): a company held a trademark of the name 'explorer' without having a product or anything. They made microsoft to pay (only) around $/Euro 90.000 and sued a couple of companies for abusing their trademark (i.e. the publisher heinz heise verlag for selling cd's with their magazines with a software called FTPExplorer on it).
Exactly the same thing happened (transleted by uhm... you know.) to a patent that covered the creation of human and animal embryos. After they realized what they did, the simply removed the patent after a LOUD shout out of politicians, medics and uh, guys like me.
Slashdot Mirror
did anybody else first think of one-click peanut butter?
OMG I can't reach it!
oh wait. it's a problem with my proxy.
How good that sounds: You have 30 Moderator Points. Use them or loose them....

Switch to that mirror... It is a good one. believe me...
Karma: can we please stop these karma word jokes, only about two of which were even funny the first time?
Who is this Karma guy anyway? And why is he bad?

I really don't want to know how many cats had to die for this /.ing.
/me is really 16/f!
be happy that there are signs that at least the ents will appear. According to earlier romurs, Peter wanted to remove even these...
I've heard it can cost three monkeys
did you ever try answers.google.com? It may cost money, but it definitly WILL give you an answer. It's a nice mix between google and ask slashdot.

Hitler didn't have deutschmarks, he had reichsmark.
deutschmarks came after the third reich while creation of the bundesrepublik.
Why should you upgrade the browser of your servers? You shouldn't use them to browse the internet at all.

for all those who want to be up to date about google, there's a nice blog especially for this topic.
there is a very intersting article from new scientist including pics about wind powered buildings..
This guy built some robots for this company. And he told me, that he bought most parts, even the engines for arms etc. from eBay.

The Oberlandesgericht of Cologne now canceled this trademark (translated by google) because it never was used for serious reasons but only to make money by sueing other companies.

There is no spo^H^H^H cup of coffee.
this isn't only the worst edited story I've ever seen on slashdot, this is also the the worst fake I've ever seen...
Can I too send in raytraced images and sell them as rendered in realtime?
> *I like it when CowboyNeal pops-up - other things irritate me.
under these circumstances, even a pop-under would be nice...
Or use opera, press F12 and choose 'accept pop-ups' or 'refuse pop-ups'.
