I cant see tracks of the Chemical Brothers, Aphex Twin or Arab Strap being given away for free. The 1000 hours would be of of the type you wouldnt want in the first place, made up of muzak or *shudder* country and western.
"Acacia Research reported a net loss last year of $29.6 million on sales that plummeted to $882,000, from $24.6 million the previous year. If nothing else, the stock is a screaming bargain"
No, its a screaming warning sign not to invest you idiot. And coupled with this ridiculous patent grab its a bigger warning to stay away.
Not that Im saying all software made in the US is bad, but slapping a tax on all non-US software is just going to make people use inferior though cheaper products.
A recent study, funded by the NRA, proved that guns dont actually kill people. It was found that 100% of so called 'gun related' deaths were actually caused by the Sun!

Some missiles are like old time cannonballs, just a mass that will cause splinters and shrapnel to erupt within the target and injure those inside or around it. You dont need major explosives, a small amount in the tip to ensure a lot of flying shrapnel. And its this shrapnel that kills more than the actual missile.
The French dont give a fuck. All the wine and french products in the US have already been paid for. So all the idiots are doing are pouring US money down the drain. And as for boycotting french restaurants and such like, non-french US citizens work there. By not going they are making the US economy even worse than it presently is as workers are laid off.
Its the human condition, to try to get stuff for free if its easy to steal it. Take towels in hotels, cutlery or even glasses in bars. People take them knowing full well its illegal.
How about making the rescue shuttle stay on the launch pad in an alternative place the whole time. You dont need to spend a day moving it at 4mph, just remove the hangar around it. Which would be much easier and less costly.
As to your costs justification, depending on the payload it could be anything to losing £50 million upwards if a ship blows up. I doubt that keeping another shuttle on standby would cost that much, especially if you share the costs out between all the other shuttle lauches itll cover.
I was thinking about that. But you could have the second shuttle on the other side of the world if you wanted. Of course there would be trajectory problems and actual planning lift off and such like, but still its a better chance of saving the first than risking re-entry.
Then again I would suggest liquidating NASA and pump all the money into building a space elevater!:)
The easiest answer is to have a standby shuttle with all the kit needed to repair the first one if any problems occur. In addition of having seven go up at one time, have another seven train with them and use them to pilot the second shuttle. Itll would be much cheaper then hauling all the potentially needless safety equipment every flight.
Of course it wouldnt hurt the first shuttle to have more diagnostics and sensors.
Well theres the supposed ice in the perpetual shadows of some craters. And they could only mine to see whats down there to start with, to see how the moon is made up and to determine if it was part of the earth once.

Then how did you see the parent post then dipshit?
The planet itself becomes part of the PM machine thus nullifying the PM part as the planet will eventually cool and die.

Thats like me taking a look at the stock market for the last 2 years and concluding that the stock market must have been 20 times higher 20 years ago.
That guy is no scientist.

Knowing the US itll be more like SUV's the size of dump trucks.

Because you wont the company that makes the best, you'd get the one with the lowest bid.

Name one product that lost money for 3+ years and then came to dominence?
"means more time to focus on making a good game"
Then how come theres more games on the PS2 and also more better games on the PS2 then on the Xbox?
Granted there are plenty more duff games on the PS2 though.
LOL If I had mod points I would gladly waste them on this
