The article says the object was "quite hot"... Well if they knew anything, they should know that the majority of all meteorites that fall to earth are COLD to the touch when they hit earth, do to the fact that they are 'burning' so fast when they enter the atmosphere that the heat doesnt transfer to the core of the meteor. And the part about rust being on the rock doesnt really make sense (to me atleast)... When an object comes in from outter space, the outside is heated and melted away, and by the time the NEW outside is showing, it has usually melted and cooled within a few seconds of falling, giving it a melted glassy almost golf-ball look, how could rust form in a few seconds??
And the whole thing about it being from Mars and crap, these people are RETARDED!! The rock could be from ANYWHERE. Only a small fraction are from Mars, and there is no way they can tell just by looking at it. They need to do some carbon dating or something like that.
The 14yo girl is probably the butt of a joke by some 14yo boys, and is too stupid to realize.
Now I could be wrong, that could be a piece of 2billion year old mars rock that fell, I'm not a professional meteorite examiner or anything, but c'mon...

I really dont understand the need to tap these fiber optic lines while they are 20,000 leagues under the sea. Just go to one of the comps on either side and either use your l33t hax0ring skill, or your strong american power to force whatever country owns it to let you sniff.
Sure, then everyone knows your listening, but what are they gonna do, set up an 802.11b network over the Indian Ocean? Ya know maybe with some parabolic dishes and the... No.

So if I go back in time to kill my parents I will actually be in a parrallel universe? Okay so say I kill them and then I travel back to the present, will I be in a another, 3rd parrallel universe?? So, my bastard ass parents will still be alive after I kill them??
So does this mean I will have to travel to EVERY POSSIBLE parrallel universe and kill my parents??? Or does it mean I have to figure a way to travel back in time but stay on my current parrallel universe, and then chop off their tiny little heads... and then travel back to the present using the same technique of staying in the current parrallel universe???
Thats just a bitch, i'll just kill them tommorrow and not worry about it.:)
Hasnt anyone on here heard of DirecPC?? How is this any different? I used to use DPC before I had access to Cable or DSL. Its definately good for downloading, peak bandwidth was over 2Mbit... VERY quick. Of course most ping times were 1 - 3 seconds... so no online gaming whatsoever.

As a resident of Redmond, I disagree. :P
