The Kyoto Treaty is about CO2(and its affect on the Greenhouse Effect), NOT NO2.
NO2 comes from general combustion of hydrocarbons. The US produces a lot of CO2, but less NO2. Why? Catalytic converters. We Have not yet been able to create a catalytic convertor that can crack a CO2 molecule:)....so the US will still be a large producer of that pollutant.
I've got an infestation of squash bugs tearing up my zuchinni - these things have no natural predators(the bugs, not the zuchinni) because of their nasty odor and, I suppose, taste.
I think a couple of these robots, trained to catch the bugs, would be able to clean house. A bug eating, bug digesting, bug-waste excreting robot would certainy be considered organic...right?
Of course, if the citizens of a country decide to ignore a law, the law ceases to exist. Governments such as the one in the US exist only because we(US citizens) allow them to. We are not subjects. We can change the course of nations if we choose to.
Ahmen. If you've had any (~cough!~) MS training, you are very familiar with the 3-ring binder books with a powerpoint slide at the top of each page and some not so helpfull additional text below.
Usually about 50-60% of the 8.5"X11" page is actually used. Brain dead, inefficient, and a waste of paper.
Not only does MS use this method, I have a Netscreen training book infront of me now. No Better. Fortinet does the same in their training material.
And if you are really lucky, you can have a class taught with the same material where the instructor just reads each powerpoint as it is on the screen and in the book! Yay!

So what exatly is the email address for "The American People?" I mean, if the found email had that as the address book name, what was the address listed?
Seriously, I think this could very well be a well executed plant. Be assured that the Office of Special Plans is still hard at work.
We should all wear natural fiber clothes... I would think that they could be converted to ethanol too. Wouldn't it be great to run your fuel-cell laptop for a few hours on some ethanol that used to be your old underwear and a socks?
Ok, how do they plan on simulating momentum? Try running at full gallop and then stopping dead. Its pretty hard to do in reality. It would be easy on a treadmill that responds in the same way as the tiles above. The act of walking without the feedback that we feel from our momentum might be a little disorienting.
They should never allow user software to access the dialing functions. Maybe there needs to be a user/OS partition in the phone so that untrusted software has to run in a small sandbox. The last thing we need is some malware disguised as a cute toy DOSing 911 numbers on a specific day. It would be simple to have a popup dialog that would ask the user if they want to allow the app to dial a number.
Yeah, the competition seems to require alot of the pilots. From the FAQ: We have built our own test rig that measures power output of a pilot over a minute duration. We have plotted the results of numerous potential pilots against their weight. A successful candidate is one that falls above a power requirement curve (power vs. weight).... We have had people vomit after these one-minute tests. In similar tests in the United States they have had one person have a mild heart attack.
Last time I e^D^Dchecked er^Dvery v^Dcomputer came with a keyba^Doard and would be hard u^Dto use without it. So yes, it t^Dis a needd^Ded skill.(doesnt^D't mean we have to me good at it thog^Dugh)
It is a very common for bugs reported to the Debian bug tracking system to be referred to the developers(upstream) by the Debian package maintainer. When 'upstream' fixes the bug the package maintainer packages the new release and submits the package to the repository.
Many Debian package maintainers are also developers on the same project. Other are just packagers.
If a packager fixes a bug in the upstream source for a Debian package,they will send that off to the software developers. If anybody gets "credit" for the work, the packager will.

Has anybody disassembled the CRII code to see if it is at all possible for a server(that the worm is trying to infect) to send a response back to the worm that would cause the worm to crash? A simple script named default.ida and some knowledge of CRII is all thats needed. It would be a unique way of ending this thing...but I have a feeling that the person(s) who coded this worm may write tigher code than MS.

Oh, crap, maybe I should patent this quick?

I'm not sure there exsits an entity called "Debian Team"

Hrm. Maybe the Rosetta Project has a solution...350,000 pages of text(not binary) ona 3" nickel disk.(Microscope required)

Fear sells.
Unless, of course, the perceived benefits of their patent arsenal outweigh the occasional nuisance lawsuit.
Im sure MS thinks so. They'll make this whole thing Just-Go-Away(tm)
Artists create things of beauty
Programmers create things of usefullness
Marketing droids create things that are neither.
If MS is going to be "fair" about this whole issue, they should nab these guys next:
