You don't know her well enough to know for sure how she would feel about you if she got to know you better or how you would feel about her if you got to know her better. You might wind up finding that you aren't really all that attracted to her while she finds that she's fallen in love with you. You might both wind up as good friends but not romantically interested in each other. There are plethora of possibilities. Go ahead and get to know her (without rushing it and appearing too eager, be sincere but play it a little cool), expand your world a little, she might introduce you to someone or something (poetry, rock climbing, jazz, knitting, who knows what) that you wouldn't have experienced otherwise. Unrequited love isn't fatal. It just feels that way for a while. Learning that the hard way is part of growing up. Might as well jump in the deep end and get it over with.

200 watts at eight-tenths of a volt is 250 Amperes of current. That sounds hideously impractical. Although most of the transistors in a digital IC are probably Field-Effect type (and I'm not going to bother to go look up all the stuff I used to know about them and have now forgotten), there are probably a few BiPolar Juction types in there as well and six-tenths of a volt is around where PN junctions just start to conduct, which means there won't be much margin for error (or power supply fluctuations).

Read the next sentence (or two or three). It goes on to say that amorphous silicon is way cheaper (and any integrated circuit you're likely to encounter is made with amorphous, not crystalline).
One of the first times I heard that my mind was on a zillion other things and for a moment I thought they were asking if I was paying with cash or a credit card.

It's already possible to layout a PCB pattern with a computer and print it to special "paper" on a laser printer, and then heat fuse the toner to a copper-clad board to serve as the etchant resist.
Now if they'll only make laser printers that can print directly to phenolic or epoxy boards we could give mom's steam iron back:-)
If the earth were between the moon and sun so that no sunlight reached the moon (that's a lunar eclipse, right?), and you aimed the mother of all flashlights at the moon, then it probably would be brightest in the center if that's where you had the beam of light aimed. But the sun isn't aimed just at the center (from our perspective) of the moon, it floods all of it with light (and every other frequency of EM too, no doubt).
If your cable company inadvertantly gives you HBO, that's their screw-up. If some mail-order outfit sends you something that you didn't order, do you feel obligated to pay for it or even pay to ship it back to them? If anything, the cable company should pay you damages for putting offensive material where you or your children might be exposed to it.

You realise, of course, that that would be the equivalent of tapping into the cable feeding the transmitting antenna on their satellite. What's going on here is more like you arguing with your wife at the top of your lungs and then complaining because your next door neighbor can stick a microphone out his window and feed the resulting signal to a machine that translates the obscure language that you're shouting in into something that he can understand. If you don't want your neighbor to know what you're arguing about, don't let the sound waves propagate across your yard and into his.

I don't know enough to even be on the level of someone who's read an "HTML for Dummies"-type book, much less to know how to write it so that it looks like what you need to type without actually turning into a link, but a left-pointing bird's mouth (less than or equal to sign), followed by an upper case letter "a", followed by a space, followed by the letters "href", only uppercase, followed by an equal sign, followed by a double quote (shift-apostrophe key), followed by the actual link, which in your case was http://www.livejournal.com , followed by another double quote, followed by a right-pointing bird's mouth (equal to or greater than sign), followed by the text that you want, which in your case was livejournal, followed by another less than or equal to sign, followed by what I call a "frontslash", the one below the question mark on most keyboards, that leans to the right at the top and to the left at the bottom, followed by another uppercase letter "a", followed by another equal to or greater than sign seems to work for me.
I looked at the source for this page and apparently the only thing that you did wrong (according to the unwritten rules of Slashdot html) was to not enter "href" in uppercase.
If someone really wants to patch slashcode, they can change the "No Score +1 Bonus" to opt-in instead of opt-out, so that it defaults to off.
Since two different people felt it necessary dig through old stories in order to moderate this down, I'm obviously mistaken and any old idiot can be an architect without having to actually learn anything about how to build a building as long as they know something about programming.

But the sun isn't aimed just at the center (from our perspective) of the moon, it floods all of it with light (and every other frequency of EM too, no doubt).
Why would you consider moonbounce strange? That's what moonlight is. Light's just electromagnetic radiation of a particular frequency range.
