I thought there were occasional cases of people recovering in mortuaries. I saw a 'Premature Burial' documentary in the UK a couple of years ago. It failed to deliver on the title, but did have some plausible guy claiming his mother had woken up in hospital morgues more than once. Sorry for this lamest of references, but all I can find on Google at the moment are alien autopsies and vampires.
An opt-in list is a publicly available database of verified email addresses likely to be uncluttered by 'legitimate' spam. Won't it just be targeted by offshore spammers?
I'm a devout muslim, and I don't obsess about death. I just want to make the most of my life, and not waste it with alcohol, drugs, fornication, adultery, etc. And I do not fear death, as I know Allah is all-just.
Umm. You don't have a pilot's licence, do you?

I believe swingkid may be referring to the fact that if a and b are aliased to the same location in memory, the "trick" will go wrong
I think it's more likely that (s)he's thinking of the a ^= b ^= a ^= b version, which is often touted as swapping a and b, but is undefined (modifies a twice between sequence points). This is an old chestnut on comp.lang.c which (s)he appears to read.

What is up with people spreading that link around. the wtc2002.org design has been soundly rebuffed by anyone with any esthetic sense whatsoever.
In other words, it's butt ugly.
Not to mention all that fucking glass. Anyone who saw the footage of 9/11 knows that the next WTC should be made out of rubber.

This sorry hateful rant is '+5 Funny' and yet you people couldn't understand why the Palestinians laughed at your fucking towers.

From the article
It must have seemed like a great idea at the time: an alarm to be fitted inside a coffin, just the thing to guard against premature burials.Why is this a bad idea now?

Making David Blunkett education secretary is like making Stephen Hawking minister for sport.
Not necessarily. If the product isn't essential, increased price lowers demand.
From the side of the consumer, buying from a monopoly means you are paying higher for the same product. This is simple Economics 101.Now suppose the monopoly enjoys economies of scale not available to smaller suppliers. Price to consumer might even decrease.
Huh? The members of the consortium are direct competitors of each other in the handset market. In what way does this resemble a monopoly?
Also, exactly how do you imagine they will acquire the infrastructure?
and the other 5% can't even add up.
Doctor to woman in maternity ward: 'I've got some good news and some bad news.'
Woman: 'What's the bad news?'
Doctor: 'I'm sorry to have to inform you that your baby is ginger.'
Woman: 'That's terrible. What's the good news?'
Doctor: 'It's dead.'
Duh! Oh well, luckily the moderators are as clueless as I was...

No, it isn't.

I thought this had happened already. US handsets are already twice the size of ours.
They tried this in the seventies but it went disastrously wrong
