You want a problem? Why is it that the precrime agency gets notifications that Anderton has gotten on a Metro (due to the retina scanners that are EVERYWHERE) but when he uses his old eyes to get into precrime, they see nothing. They don't even go looking for him until they see Agatha in the prediction and realize that he will eventually come back to get her.
The girl I was with asked me this, and I think I thought of a pretty good answer.
The entrances to the temple (and all the temple computers) are not on any system that connects to anything outside. Imagine if that dream place guy could hack into Agatha, then he might be able to hack the precog computer if he had some connection to get through (I don't know enough about firewalls to say if this is resonable). He'd cause potential chaos, calling the wrong people as future murderers. So they don't even let it touch any exterior system. This is very secure, but very silly in a practical sense. And they should have taken Anderton off any password protected doors very early on.
but time dilation made it seem 3C. That's unprovable at the time though. Of course it is! It time is dialated, then its pointless to talk about what happens in it. I think its a relativity thing
Given that cells of your body don't live long, you are a new, reborn person, every N years.
Except for your nerve cells, where as far as we know, consciousness is stored. You get a set when you are born, and you stay with them until you die. The replacement doesn't include them.
I could be wrong; I don't have any "sources" or "actual information" to back this up. That wouldn't be very/. of me, would it?

What does this say for the Mormons?
And did anyone ever notice the striking similarity between the word Mormon and martian.
Always did have my reservations about them.
This is totally valid. However, if your password is stolen because/. or Hotmail is cracked, then wouldn't the site which the password was stolen from (following Maggard's logic in "The Hard Way") be responsible? I mean, it would be terrible to lose all your personal or business files, but unless you were specifically told to pick a different password, you could just pass the buck to the people who allowed your password to be stolen. They then can pass the buck on to the site-cracker, if they can find them. If every individual is responsible for personal passwords, then I believe that websites, unless they have big disclaimers, are compelled to take atleast the same responsibility.
I'm waiting until tomorrow. If Apple comes out with a g5 that's half what the hype of it is, all us guys with x86's is gonna look real stupid. Sorry to betray GOA (Grand Old Architecture), but I am interested in the best performance. I'm also interested in having money, so I run an Athlon.
I love Jeb Porkins. His portrayal of a fat guy crashing into the death star both frightens and inspires us. It shows us something, really, about ourselves. And it was funny.
I think people should relax about not posting first. What kind of life must you lead to get angry about someone else finding the same story you found, which you didn't even do the research for?
Maybe there is a contest I don't know about for first posts, but the "DAMN YOU SLASHDOT" posts get real old. Let it slide.
