    Yes that's exactly what I mean. Places like Chicago make it possible for all the farmland in illinois to exist but get this IT'S STILL NOT ENOUGH!. The farmland not only suck up all the taxes chicago can muster but also have to suck up some NY or California money too.

    Um, do you not like food or something?

    I wonder if they brought up unrealistic, stupid space movies like Armageddon and Space Cowboys. If we hate movies like Hackers and The Net then I can't imagine how much they would hate their genre/life misrepresented.

    I'm not against growing hemp in the United States, in fact I am very much for it. The argument against growing it mostly protains that it would be really easy to plant a bunch of marijuana in a hemp field since the plants look exteremly similar. In my parents ranch in Nebraska, there is wild hemp and marihuana growing in one of their pastures. One would first have to know the differences AND look very closely at the plants to tell the difference.

    IMHO I think the U.S. should just legalize marijuana and start a strong hemp production.

    Besides that, if the products of the same name are totally not related it's not uncommon 2 companies can register the same name

    Yea, except the company that patented it first was a software company. I think thats somewhat related to Microsoft.

    I think the OJ car chase might very well be the defining moment of my generation.

    Yea, I was also born in 1982 and I will always remeber that event. It canceled the game I was watching and aloud me to view a 25mph bronco for a few hours.

    yup, It was real. I believe he was receving an award (Nobel?) and he mugged for a bunch of reporters. If you will read any of his works, you will also see a sense of humor in him writtings.

    Mark Twain is another extermly inteligent man who is known for comic moments. He would make fun of polititons all the time.

    "Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of congress; but I repeat myself."
    -Mark Twain

    He also said "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society." -Mark Twain

    So, I would like this sterotype that intelgent people don't have fun or a sense of humor to end. It almost as bad as a Saved by the Bell Sterotype. We can not assuem that this child is unhappy with his social life.

    The AC above me didn't deserve a -1, his parent comment did.

    I disagree.

    If one is not smart enough to make themselves happy, then are they truly intelligent? Just because this child is intelligent does not mean he is unhappy. You are buying into a stereotype.

    Also, I found a picture on a nasa server that shows 'Water-ice frosts on Ganymede.' It was taken in 1996. You can also read the information about that picture.

    I guess water that freezes would be different then a salty ocean, but it still justifies theories of Hydrogen and Oxygen exsiting there.

    I used to think BeOS would never go opensource either. Why would this stuck up, for profit, company do something like that. Then it realesed a Free version of its OS to gain some marketshare. I've heard that idea was not the sucess they planed. Maybe their board of directors will take it to the next step in the effort to gain more share in the OS community.

    I at least would sure like to see how they did that movie cube thing.

    The artical says that the interent is still growing, just the hype of it is has peaked.

    I have to agree with this on some points. I have never belived the internet is everything for everyone as it has been told by many people. I also don't see the mass migration of brick and motor to e-commerace continueing (or nessasary).

    Hmm, you know, maybe one day the Internet will be once again owned by computer geeks and not corprotate retailers.
