  1. Re:Moral implications... on Learning Java Through Violence · · Score: 1

    Namby-Pamby personalities like yours are not capable of providing good parentage. If you think a simple, crudely-rendered tank battle game constitutes "violence" in today's world of graphic violence on Network news, the daily newspaper, you need to call 1-800-Get A Clue!

    I had friends with parents like you...It took many long hours to get them "re-adjusted" so they could function in the real world. Stay in your Ivory Tower, or wherever you beam messages from. You have no business preaching from on high!

  2. I met Harold "Doc" Edgerton at MIT in 1986. on Exhibition of High Speed Photography · · Score: 1

    I was taking the High Speed Photography course there and it was one of the last years that Doc was roaming the halls, since Dr. Miller was by then teaching the course.

    I had lunch with him one day, and he talked me into buying a large re-print of the 30-06 bullet blowing through the apple. The deal was, if I bought it, he would autograph it. One of my most cherished possessions.

    If any of you remember the early advertisement for Kevlar showing the bullet bouncing off the Kevlar mesh, that was me and my team! Usually, I took photos, movies, and high-speed video (Instar, Kodak) of yarn processes and Mylar film processes.

  3. Another infected MS site? on Hotmail Servers Shut Down by Code Red · · Score: 1

    Unless this IP has been spoofed, I just got this log entry from the vigilante java applet I started running today. If you look at the site under this IP, http://216.72.47.132/ , it is the Microsoft site for the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack! Here's the log entry: [09/08/01 10:03:42 EDT] BaitThread: Processing req uest.
