  1. Marshall Savage's "The Millennial Project" on Engineers Propose Lily Pad-Like Floating Cities · · Score: 1

    This concept was explored in much greater detail in Marshall Savage's book "The Millennial Project: Colonizing the Galaxy in 8 Easy Steps" (look it up on Wikipedia...) Honestly, I like Savage's methodology better- use OTEC (power generation through ocean temperature differentials)power to accrete/ grow your building materials from seawater. But then again, all this sort of thing is blue-water blue-skying....

  2. Re:Moon Landing Problem... on The Mythbusters Answer Your Questions · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, even eyewiness accounts don't convince the conspiracy nuts... they are, by their very nature, unteachable. I think the tinfoil hats might contribute to the hardening of their brain cells...

  3. Eschatology and MMO on MMORPGs Will Change the Future · · Score: 1
    Does this concept (not the article)strike anybody as vaguely familiar? It reminds me of the Kingdom as described in Revelation (and elsewhere)....
    • Incorruptable bodies
    • Mansions
    • Streets of Gold
    • No Taking of Wives (Husbands)
    • No Money
    • No Poverty
    There are probably more, but that's enough to really kind of unnerve me....
  4. Try TikiWiki on Best Weblogs for Personal Websites? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Although it's very Wiki oriented, it also has a fairly robust CMS system and blogging features....extremely flexible. I use it on dailyread.com and have had very few difficulties with it. Standard Apache/PHP/MySQL setup. TikiWiki.org
