    I just called and they told me they have NO 3rd party non-disclosure list and acted as though I was insane. Any thoughts? Is there something else I should be asking for?

    Basically, just about everything a network can do to not encourage a following, they did

    Not too unlike what Fox did with Family Guy originally? At least they are bringing that one back...

    Don't they understand that they're cancelling the most original, innovative and entertaining Sci Fi show of this generation?

  8. Re:Parent Co.? on Recovering Domains from Negligent Registrars? · · Score: 1

    Ah, well I have never had to deal with this exact problem to be sure. But my general tactics involve attmepting to get in touch with whoever owns them. I have found that many companies have parent companies that can crack the whip, o to speak, on the smaller one to comply.

    In either case, this might be an effective strategy - if you can find a phone number to talk to someone. Many companies in my experience try their best to hide their customer service phone numbers (Amazon.com anyone - though I have found one).

    Hope that is some help!

  13. Allow Cities? on Colorado May Allow Cities To Provide Wifi · · Score: 2, Interesting

    ...which would allow cities to provide wireless internet access.

    This makes it sound like it is currently illegal to do this. Is it illegal in Colorado to have a city set up a wireless network?

  14. Wait, I thought...... on U.S. Blogger Breaches Canadian Publication Ban · · Score: 1

    Today, plasmons can only travel a few millimeters before dying, while today's chips are typically about a centimeter across.

    Well, in that case, it sounds similar to my research. See, if you jump, you can fly. Now currently, I can only fly a foot or two. Of course, most people want to fly longer distances, but it's a start.

  18. Ray Gun on Health Consequences of CRT Monitors? · · Score: 1

    More worrisome, the x-rays being emitted out the front are carefully regulated for health reasons. However this doesn't apply to the back, which typically has 3-7 times as much radiation coming out of it. Lots of offices are setup in such a way that you are staring directly at the back of a co-workers monitor. So, your three CRT setup?

    Sounds like we have the makings of a great under-cover radiation gun. I wonder how many monitors I can convince IT to loan me for a week. "Ha ha ha! No kids you for you, Jim!"
