The biggest problem with social programs is that you can't cut them and shunt the money over to military applications when you need to. Too many people are depending on those social programs.
It will go though its development phase. They'll tinker with it when it hits the field. Then after about 10 years of use they'll come up with a newer version that works quite well.
For something made by a government contractor that is.:)
Wavelengths for chemical lasers are easy to look up.
I'm actually puzzled about this article. It says "Solid State" but I think they're talking about the free electron laser. Which I was told has a theoretical max efficiency of 40%
Which I guess can be considered solid state, if by solid state you mean "Not chemical".
If it is the free electron laser, then it's impossible to tell you the wavelength, because the wavelength is adjustable.

Woah woah WOAH!
Nazis are bad? I haven't seen Schindler's List yet.

Probably becuse it's hard to copy RealPlayer and Windows streaming, where making a copy of Quicktime is built into the player.
"For the commercial though, they should of hired Chiana (gigi edgley), the sexiest.girl.ever."
You do realize that she doesn't have a curve on her body, and that the appearance of breasts was solely a makeup trick?
It's time for water cooling.
So, let me get this straight. AT&T owns miles and miles of dark fiber. And they are also an ISP.
Instead of coming up with a way to use all that fiber, they're actually REDUCING the amount of traffic that's going over their lines?
What does GWB have to do with running Canada? A socialist country?
Well, that's reasonable to say that the astronomical "order of magnitude" = 2.5.
But the reason most people think "order of magnitude" is x10 is because that's the basic definition of "order of magnitude".

Oh please. The answer is simple. Make the container out of antimatter. :-)
Why?
Well, heck, if that counts, I'm all for puppet governments!
Just like any new weapon.

Who still has battleships in service?
I'm curious, when was the last time the US installed a puppet government?
Because space battles between ships that look like black spheres against the blackness of space aren't very interesting.
It's a very affordable FX budget though!
You don't like weapons?
Considering a weapon is just an extention of human will, don't you really mean you don't like people?
If that's the case. Then what's to prevent the government from inisting that you go though a clinic to reproduce?
So they can go though the genes of a fertized egg and only give back the ones that don't have any problems?
After all, it will save you a TON of money in the long run.
I can see the prenatal testing now.
"Well Mrs. Smith, according to the genetic screening, your daughter will grow up to have an enormous rack."
It's called a DICTIONARY. Use it.
Kidnap:
To seize and detain unlawfully and usually for ransom.
So, how much ransom are we holding Noriega for?
Yeah, I hear the police "Kidnap" people all of the time! Toss them into small concrete rooms!
As for the "Lawful" aspect. It seems to be in a gray area of power politics. At the very least tell us who is suing us over this?
Oh please. "Oil may run out...someday."
THAT'S their prediction? Hell, *I* can do that. How much does the job pay?
Here's a free sample to future employers:
"Sources of clean water will become more rare and valuable."
Not bad eh?
Heh, Thanks for posting. You made my day.
:-)
Maybe you should consider a side business of "Motavational Speech" CDs?
Wow, I've run down the same road you have. And yet when I try to show up at interviews they wonder why I'm wasting their time.
You got LUCKY.
Easy way out my ass. Degreed and certified with computers/business/electronics.
If TIVO would go down I would instantly start up a business broadcasting the data TIVO customers need to keep their TIVO working.
Welcome to capitalism my friend.
