  1. Re:Shuttle Disaster Scenarios on The Challenger · · Score: 1

    TLA's are nice, but some people are confused. I knew some, and had to look the rest of them up. =)

    LEO = Low Earth Orbit
    APU = Auxiliary Power Unit
    SRB = Solid Rocket Booster
    OMS = Orbital Maneuvering System
    RCS = Reaction Control System
    KSC = Kennedy Space Center
    SSME = Space Shuttle Main Engine

    Hope this helps. (source)

  2. So... on Rice Genome Mapped · · Score: 1

    ...when can we expent the patent on the gene sequence? Just one more thing for 'em...

  3. Re:MSNBC Credibility on Antitrust · · Score: 1

    Hour? No. DAY? - That's a bit more noticable. I'm not saying that MSNBC will put it off, just sometimes it won't hit thier newspage until it's been up on CNN for almost half a day.

    And being called an idiot by an AC will hardly ruin my day... thanks! =)

  4. Re:An unfortunate movie... (Windows Source) on Antitrust · · Score: 2

    The Windows source code was released a long time ago.

    ACK!

  5. Re:MSNBC Credibility on Antitrust · · Score: 1

    I've been very surprised by some of the anti-MS stories that have showed up on MSNBC.

    It's true that MSNBC has had a few anti-MS stories, but I have yet to see them be the _first_ to report any of these.

  6. Outlook replacement? on Aethera Beta 1 Released · · Score: 1

    Until there's a replacement for Exchange on *nix, what I would really like to see, is an email/calendar/contact/etc client that can talk to the exchange server. Is there a program out (or in development) that can do this?

  7. Re:have to be said on Quickies from OLS - les Quickies d'OLS · · Score: 1

    It would only be that flat if his sound and video are integrated into the board and he has no other PCI cards in it... otherwise it's a little taller. =)

  8. What about .god TLD? on Corinthians.com Taken Away, Given To Soccer Team · · Score: 1

    Didn't someone start registering .god as a TLD? Granted it wouldn't be terribly PC to have religion using it, but I think in this case it would have been appropriate (if ICANN chose to recognize it).

    What ever happened to that guy? I got romp.god. =)

  9. Bruce Campbell ? on Who Will Mulder's Replacement Be? · · Score: 1

    "Gimmie some sugar Scully."
