One more thing to carry around and worry about whether or not it was charged? No thanks, not gonna happen. I have a Kindle, loved it at first but quickly lost interest for reasons mentioned above.
I'll read a BOOK, thanks, and get my news on the internet using my laptop or phone, both of which I have already trained myself to keep charged/with me at all times.
It's not as if Google ever actually intended to buy Yahoo, either.
But seriously, in this discussion no one said anything about buying until you did.
So what relevance does googles intention or not to buy yahoo have to a discussion which essentially boils down to "Mommy he's touching me", "No, she touched me first","He pulled my hair.", "But only because she stole my toy." all the way back to 1995.
I agree completely with your belief that we should not be cutting back on space technology, and the reasons you give for that, however, how does a worldwide ban on weapons that interfere with military and commercial satellites. interfere with those goals in any way? It is in the first paragraph of the first article linked, but this is slashdot, I guess I expect too much sometimes.
What books are those? Besides, do you really think that our puny space weapons are going to be any deterrent at all for visitations by an alien race sufficiently advanced to overcome the technical hurdles involved in interstellar travel? For the love of FSM, the nearest star is 4.2 light years away from our sun, and to the best of my knowledge Proxima Centauri does not have any planets in orbit.
I put a pie into low earth orbit on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately I miscalculated so the orbit was unstable and rapidly degraded. The pie didn't burn up on re-entry, though it did make a rather large mess on the kitchen floor.
Perhaps the McCain campaign simply declined to be interviewed for that story. I don't know, but perhaps it is easier to be favorable to someone who helps you out by agreeing to an interview.

We really need to know, will it blend?
It will matter for most of the year. The end doesn't come until 21 December 2012.
They will just break your windows!
Lighters are no longer prohibited.
She believes in math? Or Science Fiction? Or just the regular old fashioned fairy tales like the urban legend about that guy Jesus who mows my lawn?

I am not sure I would even want one for free.

Who said anything about buying? Google/Yahoo was a cooperative deal, no purchasing involved. Also non exclusive.
WTF are you talking about, here is info on 3rd party browsers for the iphone.
Anyway, the iphone is nowhere close to being the monopoly that MS Windows is. I still see more blackberries than I do iphones on a daily basis.
See ya, don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Say hello to Stephen Baldwin for us when you get there!
Yes but doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is insanity!
Oddly enough, most so-called "conservatives" today are actually ignorant jackasses from East Bumfuck or Hicksville.
There, fixed that for ya!
It really is too bad that real conservatives let them get away with calling themselves conservatives.

I'd like to see you put that "in the back of a van" and have the doors close and the van actually move.
Just drop some of that back bacon on Iranian nuclear facilities and they will be useless to them. Come on, chop chop, lets get it done.
And it is named so because of where it is located in DC. Which was known as Foggy Bottom before there was a Washington DC.
Somebody beat you to it. Betting on LHC Destroying the earth..
Finally, a possible solution to the selection problem I keep running into with my "kill all the stupid people" proposal.
So tell me, is this post for real, or am I just part of your hallucination?
You think Anonymous Cowards provide more signal? Or do you just not understand ratios?

Car talk started on WBUR in Boston, which is a great public radio station, one of the very few things I miss about living in the Boston area.
