Sigh, I suppose you're a Eurasia supporter, too. Care to start teaching kids how many continental plates we ACTUALLY have, and memorizing them? How about removing all references to Tidal waves (non-descriptive), and teaching the difference between Solar noon and statutory noon? Why don't we remove all references to pure American democracies from our history books after the Electoral College?
My point is the terms are fine as they are, and they also teach us about the level of technology and history of the era's where the terms were coined. If the children want further knowledge, they have perfectly good access to it.
I'm sure you can find innumerable instances of words that we've discovered don't actually describe what they refer to. Get over it, and stop making my poor school system buy new science books because we've decided to rename everything we know of to ever more confusing and hard to remember (much less pronounce) names.
BTW I supported Xena/Gabrielle as a planet system, because it is no more different from Earth than Jupiter is.
My best example of this is paintball. You take the very best macho winner paintball champion, and see how often he "dies" on a tournament weekend. Extrapolate that to actual combat, and you see that surviving an engagement is incredible luck as much as it is skill or equipment. War is no game at all.
The only percussion that generally needs tuning are the timpani. Most other percussion instruments are shaved, sanded, or molded to tune at the factory. Temperature can vary the pitch on most keyboard style percussion instruments, including bells, chimes, xylophone, marimba, and similar instruments.
If they demonstrated the effect on wood. That would differentiate this from already well known magnetic levitation. Maybe a chess piece or balsa wood glider?
I just gave up on Ubunto because I couldn't get Gyach to install via ANY package manager, and the manual install required libraries that weren't on the installable list. I just wanted yahoo voice chat. Call me stupid.

And then multiply by the fraction of actual profit the RIAA gets from sale of said music.
Nope. The -A didn't come around until Star Trek IV.

Boy that surprise birthday present sure landed me in jail quick. I hope I can explain that brand new S&M outfit adequately in court!
This technique is being used.

With mayonnaise and relish, of course.
Darn it! It didn't say ANYWHERE on the book not to microwave it!
Don't forget the millions of discoveries by scientists who watch simple folk right after they say, "Hey ya'll! Watch this!"
Here's a cookie. Oops! I fed the troll!
A 3 mph difference that should cause you to drive *slower* than the speed limit.
I find your lack of faith . . . disturbing.

I love Slashdot, where you can get so offtopic and not be deleted. BTW Calontir rocks.
I suppose it's fitting that you posted AC, considering I just tested your theory with a new I-tunes click-through license. You're theory is incorrect.
Yes, but did you understand what it SAID?
The program that plays the files you licensed does not open, thereby depriving you of their use.

You do. Have fun with your OS and software vacant electronics.
Seriously, either make your point in person, or realize that I made a joke. Click on the linky if you are still confused.
Too bad that "Great Firewall" doesn't work both ways. Shame, really.
