I use many computing devices every day. I program the VCR, the Microwave, my Cell Phone. Also, Digital Watches, Game Consoles, Environmental Controls. Not to mention the various pieces of software that mimic 'real' interfaces, at the same time, variating from the OS.
My point: I use all of these without reading the manuals. I can figure any one of these out, just becuase the nature of the devices and interfaces is so similar. Has 'Pervasive Computing' already reached us, or am I just not an idiot?

I know you're just trying to be a Troll, but you've just come across as Stupid.
Several of the actors have had other roles, which is suprising considering the relatively short timespan between Farscape being cancelled and the big push to start a mini-series.
Ben Browder (John Crichton) has been in an episode of CSI: Miami, played Lee Majors in Behind the Camerea; The Unauthorized Story of 'Charlie's Angels' (which was pretty campy but entertaining, especially with Dan Castallaneta), and a major roll as Sam Moss in the film A Killer Within which is in post-production.
Claudia Black (Aeryn Sun) is the character Lady Briana in the game Lords of Everquest
Anthony Simcoe (Ka D'Argo) plays the character Scott Seaton in the two part TV movie Marking Time. He has also had a role in BlackJack, another TV movie.
Gigi Edgley (Chiana) has played the character in Liz Kempson in BlackJack, a TV movie, which has turned into a TV movie series. She has played the same roll on BlackJack: In the Money, BlackJack: Ace Point Game, and BlackJack: Sweet Science (which is currently still filming)
Lani John Tupu (Captain Crais/Voice of Pilot) has played the character Sharky Garcia in the movie Liquid Bridge, also the character Chief Finau on the TV show Revelations.
Wayne Pygram (Scorpius) has played Col. Langdon in the TV movie Heroes' Mountain.
Tammy McIntosh (Jool) has played Melissa on the TV series Jeopardy and also the character Charlotte Beaumont on the TV series All Saints
Mellisa Jaffer (Noranti) has played Gwen Walston on the TV sereis Snobs
David Franklin (Braca) was the Maitre D' in The Matrix Reloaded (bet you didn't know that)
Kent McCord (Jack Crichton) was in the movie Run Ronnie Run!
This is what these actors have been doing since Farscape, it doesn't even touch the huge list of work from before. Several of the actors whe played smaller roles in Farscape have also been appearing in various things. So stop being an idiot.
From The First Link:
Bur oaks bear seed up to an age of 400 years, older than reported for any other American oak. The minimum seed-bearing age is about 35 years, and the optimum is 75 to 150 years
"Bur oak is said to have reached a height of 52 m (170 ft) and a d.b.h. of 213 cm (84 in) in the lower Ohio Valley. On the better sites, mature trees generally grow 24 to 30 in (80 to 100 ft) tall, 91 to 122 cm (36 to 48 in) in d.b.h., and live 200 to 300 years. Characteristically, they have a massive, clear trunk and a broad, open crown of stout branches."
from The Second Link:
In the early 1900's, "mature" ponderosa pines were defined as 200 years old, 300 year old trees were considered "veterans." Today, the Forest Service defines 100 year old trees "old growth."
By 1962, when the Forest Service began region- wide surveys, the forests were already highly degraded, the very largest trees being already logged off. The rule of early forestry was to exclusively and rapidly cut all the largest trees (Drake 1910, Woolsey 1911, Moore 1912). The large trees were eulogized as far back as 1891
fullerene
n.
Any of various cagelike, hollow molecules composed of
hexagonal and pentagonal groups of atoms, and especially
those formed from carbon, that constitute the third form of
carbon after diamond and graphite.
Diamond, Graphite and Fullerene forms are crystalline, the amorphous forms are coal, coke, charcoal, lampblack, gas carbon etc.
In diamond, each C-atom is covalently bonded to four other C-atom to give a tetrahedral unit. In diamond each C-atom is sp3-hybridized.Therefore each C-atom forms four sigma bonds with
neighbouringC-atoms.
In diamond C-C-C bond angle is 109.5 degrees.These basic tetrahedral units unite with one another and produce a cubic unit cell.
In graphite each C-atom is covalently bonded to three C-atom to give trigonal geometry. Bond angle in graphite is 120 degrees. Each C-atom in graphite is sp2-hybridized. Three out of four valance electrons of each C-atom are used in bond formation while the forth electrons free to move in the structure of graphite. Basic trigonal units unite together to give basic hexagonal ring. In hexagonal ring C-C bond length is 1.42A degrees. In graphite these rings forms flat layers. These layers are arranged is parallel,one above the other. These layers 3.35A degrees apart and are held together by weak van der waals forces only.These layers can slide over one another.Thus it is very soft. Fourth electron of each c-atom forms delocalized
p-system.
During the irradiation of diamond by atoms, many bonds are broken,
leading to point defects and eventually to clusters of defects. At a
high enough irradiation dose, amorphization of the crystal structure
may occur and two specific amorphous forms of carbon may appear: the
tetrahedrally bonded Diamond-like Amorphous Carbon which will be
denoted by ta-C and the sp^2 bonded Graphite-like Amorphous
Carbon named a-C. These two structures can be distinguished
clearly by their macroscopic and microscopic properties. The former
material has higher density, is transparent, electrically insulating
and much harder than the latter. From the microscopic point of view,
the ratio of fourfold, diamond-like bonds to threefold, graphite-like
bonds (sp^3/sp^2) determines the kind of structure obtained.

I think you're OK using white paper on your boxes, just don't leave them unattended in an airport terminal.
using TV Guide online, I rarely need to channel-flip to find something on. And when the commercials come on, that's when I go pee.
It's not an FTP server for you,, silly!
It's what I do. I'm running OSX, so it's really easy to do, of course.

No, Star Trek never recovered from it's cancellation. Just imagine how much money could have been made from Star Trek had it never been cancelled.

That's pretty much what they're doing.
