  1. Re:'Batlike 6th sense' on Warwick Gets a Few More Wires · · Score: 1

    Bats don't have any 6th sense...they're blind. Their ultrasonic radar replaces their normal vision.

    Considering the plethora of ultrasonic emissions in the environment, wouldn't an attempt to tap into it (for a human anyway...) lead to a nasty sensory overload? I can imagine him switching it on and being instantly immobilized by sensory shock. Robots can do this because they can be programmed. To 'program' a human brain to be able to understand ultrasonic sensory information would probably take an evolutionary change.

  2. Re:This is just like... on WinXP Security Flaw · · Score: 1

    BIND is hardly the mother of all security concerns. Compare the handful of BIND exploits
    in recent years to the countless Microsoft security blunders just since this Fall!
