The modern prognosis predicts that Lincoln might have conceivably recovered enough to return to the White House to complete his second term.
Plus George W. Bush has proven that you can be President for two consecutive terms without actually having a brain, so any brain damage Lincoln could have suffered would have a negligible impact on his professional career.
Heh, mod me troll bitches, but you know it's true!
No, actually, the major failing of the movie will be (as usual) reliance on eye candy special effects and a complete and utter lack of a plot. I mean, how many times do you have to go watch a movie about the evil dudes trying to take over the world and the heroes stopping them?
Lets make our drivers licences Debit Cards Hey lets make our drivers licences national ID Cards Hey lets make everyone in the World have ID cards that can be used as money which makes a world currency Hey we're too lazy to carry cards anymore, lets have a microchip imbedded in everyone.
Hey, let's just forget money. Your basic needs will be provided for, citizen. Back to work.
They might as well be preaching to the choir; these people paid to see a shitty movie
Actually some people pay to see the movie, then download it to add to their collection. Shame on me, for not forking out an additional $25 for the DVD.
I mean, ants COULD destroy all the buildings in Manhattan if the buildings weren't repaired and the ants had long enough.
Unless of course people keep building. Do you have any idea why the earth's core is hot? Do you just think the earth is cooling, still, after a few billion years, and will continue to do so for another few billion? Do you think there are no GRAVITATIONAL FORCES from the Sun that actually knead the inside of the earth like dough, and THIS is what heats the core? The core will cool when the earth stops rotating. Period. Now, how will tapping geothermal energy stop the rotation of the Earth or reduce the sun's gravity, pray tell?
Using geothermal power will speed up the cooling of the earths core.
????????
Seriously do you have any kind of idea of the amount of energy required to cause any sort of noticeable impact on the earth's core? It's like a colony of ants saying they will destroy all the buildings in Manhattan.
I guess there will be more than just one child being left behind with psychological traumata as a result of this.
Big deal. I mean, childhood is FULL of trauma, you know? That's how you grow up. I agree that this probably wasn't called for, but overreacting for the "sake of the children" is also irrational. Poor them. Yes, poor them.
Well look at it this way, we will NEVER KNOW how many patents their "proprietary software" infringes on, since we will never be allowed to look at their source code. Win for Microsoft, (or anyone else who can be bothered to go through open source code looking for violations) unless software patents are seriously reviewed to disallow vague and abstract patents.
Perhaps the strength of open source is that since it's free, the programmers surely can't be considered professionals, and if they can come up with that code, then it's obvious. As far as I know obvious solutions to a problem were not patentable.
Taking 5% of a company for TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS? Anyone who accepts that deal should be shot
Oh but I'm sure this type of hustler will be quick to point out that if he takes 5% of your company for 20k, that means he thinks you are really worth FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS! Isn't that amazing!? And that's without doing anything at all! Imagine what you will be worth in just a few years... etc, ad nauseam
Yet there are always plenty of people with money prepared to hand it over to, or on the say so of, an arrogant twat. "Oooohh isn't he aggressive Mildred? I like THAT, excuse me sir, how many millions did you say you needed?"

omg u r so fucking witty
Wow, you posted a rational argument on slashdot. Of course you're flamebait, looks like the bible-fags have taken this place over.
So you're saying it's not a known-unknown, but rather an unknown-unknown, to borrow from the former Secretary of Defense.
So when does America invade?
usually religion is used to try to better a person.
Too bad religion sucks at that as well, among other things.
(Expecting to be sent to mod hell by dozens of "better people")
Not sure everyone caught your reference to cosmetology. Or maybe I'm just one of the few who thought it was funny?
What does studying comets have to do with anything? Oh wait...
though we don't know how the Universe was created, some day we might when we learn enough.
No, actually we won't. Just like your dog will never understand the subtleties of modern aqueducts.
If they've got free will, does that mean they can go to heaven or hell?
You're making a pretty big assumption there - assuming "heaven" and "hell" exist in the first place.

If we are to believe even half of what Al Gore is spouting
How could you NOT believe Al Gore? After all, he DID invent the internet!
Until I can get a cell signal down here in my parents basement, I've got no choice but to use a landline.
May I point out all the possibilities that you could enjoy by moving into the attic instead?
OMG you said Boo on slashdot I'm shocked and I don't think I'll ever be able to sleep again, someone call the news oh and expect a $3M lawsuit...

So for $5000, they get 5% of a startup that could be worth millions.
Yes it _could_ be worth millions. Probability is against that, however. Otherwise getting rich would be easy.
what an arrogant twat.

Heck when I get inspired I can easily write 40,000 WORDS of code in a weekend...
