  1. DNA analysis? on Video Shows How Bacteria Invade Antibiotics And Transform Into Superbugs (npr.org) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    has anyone compared the DNA of the final generations to determine if they are genetically identical or radically different?

  2. Re:How secure are landlines... on Is Security Holding VoIP Back? · · Score: 1

    let's face it, any form of voice communication is open to room bugging -- the big point is how open the system is to remote and automated access. PSTN is not really foolproof but it did place a legal responsibility on the provider to keep the lines secure -- you knew who to sue. Upgrading PSTN to all-optical would suppress the vast majority of casual hacks. Are you prepared to loose all 'assurances' that the party called is actually there? Anyone care to comment on the stress created by this modern anonymity?

  3. Re:dammit on Microsoft Bites It On 64-bit Microprocessors · · Score: 1

    Can I add Premieir and driver support for FireMax on Macintosh -- please!!!

  4. Re:But it's not compatible - but neither is MS on StarOffice 5.1 released · · Score: 1

    You've sure hit upon the biggest problem out there.
    Is there no way to guide people into using some form of steady standard? The OS wars are not yet over and this problem looms over all us as an even bigger problem. I have to process files from all versions of Office and Word and the incompatibility of the various versions is one of the biggest time wasters known.
    Does any one know of an association that is looking into this?
    Something must be done before W2000 adds another layer of inefficiency to an already screwed up situation.
