You mean i can seamlessly receive an urgent request for a business relationship from a top Nigerian official just by saying "Clippy, fetch my email?" Say no more, my friend.
I'm sure this is the feature i need to push me over the edge to upgrade my O'97./sarcasm.
Hm. It's said that a month earlier when Watson went to London to confer with Franklin (actually to confer with Wilkins, but he wasn't in so James dropped in on Rosalind instead), they got into an argument and Rosalind lost her temper. Watson claimed he grabbed a Pauling manuscript because he felt he may have needed to defend himself from her wrath.
They were not exactly on good terms - and thus probably not the best candidates for co-authorship.
Very much so. Last week's Time magazine feature had a fascinating story describing the events that transpired up to that Eureka moment by Watson. Crick and Watson were scared that other scientific titans like Linus Pauling, Wilkins, and Franklin would have easily come to the same conclusion earlier, if not for unexpected circumstances and conflicting egos.
It's a shame that Franklin is hardly acknowledged for her contribution by the masses. If only she didn't die so young... (she liked to fiddle with radioactivity with her hands or something...)
> Actually, Aline was the one to fend off the would-be stabber using a state of the art "big rock" (an inuit sculpture). The wife was doing most of the threatening as I understand it;- )
That's right. Jean's only threatening when:
1. Parliament is in session
2. Someone steps between him and a camera
Otherwise he's as timid and vulnerable as a kitten
... name the algorithm threefish, then sell the patent and name to Microsoft, then watch Counterpane sue them and then read Bruce add another reason to hate Microsoft security on Crypto-Gram, like he does every other issue.
Though I would pay money to see that little twit from that boy group (nstink^H^H^H^H^H*sink^H^H^Hync) jettisoned into space because he couldn't come up with the money for his training...
New York - Household products conglomerate SC Johnson Wax was found guilty in a US Federal court today on charges of treason, stemming from their release of a new product - the Raid Mine (tm). The Raid Mine (tm) was an extension of the extrememly popular Raid (tm) product line of bug-killing products, into the newly discovered anti-bug-and-personnel mine market that showed much promise after recent developments in mine detection technologies. The product in question was developed to counter the new detection methodology, which employed airborne insects to identify antipersonnel mines. While the US Department of Justice has refused to release full details of the technology by request of the Department of Justice and the Central Intelligence Agency, many defense experts claim that spraying a mine with insecticide would probably produce the desired effect.
SC Johnson was accused of selling over 10 million units of Raid Mine (tm), mostly to Russia and Germany. They were also accused of selling 60 million canisters of Raid Flying Insects bug spray - a variant of the flagship Raid bug spray, targeting airborne insectoids for termination - to Iraq, Iran, and North Korea. The company was forbidden to export the Raid Mine to the latter three countries as it was not considered to be a commercial household product.
SC Johnson has announced it would appeal the decision.

Damn right. It's +0 Normal.

This looks more like a lame /. poll spinning out of control than an interesting discussion. But while we're at it:
Who would win in a bloodsport deathmatch?
- Comic Book Guy
- Pikachu
- The Brain
- Rosie O'Donnell
- CowboyNeal
Keanu Reeves Superman, because he knows kung-fu.
>Yeah well they don't have pedestrians being picked off by snipers do they?
That's tight, we just worry about flying stray hockey pucks.
>what if the first action you take breaches security?
Then you'd better be damned good enough to keep it up without being caught.
I hope this is not natural selection at work.
But then, if he was a true gamer, he obviously died from "natural causes"
It'd be such a waste if he didn't. All that effort for nothing...

> Jealous are you? It happens that Lance is back in training at Star City despite the sponsorship problems. :)
OK. But jettison him out of the nearest airlock anyway. The Russians would benefit greatly from improved Russo-American relations.
Though I would pay money to see that little twit from that boy group (nstink^H^H^H^H^H*sink^H^H^Hync) jettisoned into space because he couldn't come up with the money for his training...
I dunno, but I know the RIAA's tentacles reach deep into Congress' pants.
Me: Officer, I don't think you're supposed to be drinking while on duty...

The next-gen JSF would feature a mini-oven and a jacuzzi for the pilot and co-pilot.

Dude, I can't lose any more productivity
