I dunno. I read the first two and thought they were hilarious. Then I picked up a couple of the later ones, and thought they were mildly funny, but were all kind of the same and copied from the original. So I'm not a big fan.
Alphas are on the order of 5 MeV, which means it would be putting out about 4E-4 W. That's tiny but still probably noticeable. (But 10000 uCi of radioactive material would very definitely be noticed.)
How about Congress spend its time doing more important things, like PASSING THE BUDGET. The DOE and its labs need a budget so they can avoid firing hundreds of important scientists.
One useful thing that you can do with oscillations is have atomic clocks. Perhaps someday they will use this discovery to time to trillionths-of-a-second accuracy.
It's called "backwork." Any power plant uses some fraction of the power it generates to power itself (pumps, compressors, etc.) It's no different with accelerator-driven plants or this concept, except they use more power.
My experience with national labs is that the group and lab you're working at makes a huge difference. I've spent summers at Sandia and Oak Ridge; the difference was extraordinary.
Since you're in academics, surely you know people who have worked at each national lab before. Get anecdotes from them.
Li-ion batteries have a limited number of charge cycles on them, somewhere around 300, before their capacity starts to decrease. You would have to replace all of the batteries at some point after this when your car's range is decreased to the point where you can't stand it. This means, what, most of the value of the car after 100000 miles? Is it worth it?
Interestingly, with iTunes 5.0.1 already installed on my Mac, iTunes 6 is only a 618 kB upgrade as shown by the installer! This means that almost all of the content is already there, as has been indicated by rumor sites and people noticing video icons etc. inside the package.
Gmail limits the total portion a user sees of a book to 20% of it (it ties records of the book viewing to your google ID). No matter how many searches you do, you can't extract more than a fifth of the book.

Satan's game.
My only regret is... that I have... boneitis! [gak]
Three mile island?
I'm tagging this with "apostrophe." Slashdot editors, gb2hs.

The new "Blogger beta" represents a complete overhaul of the Blogger system by the Google team.
I appropriately misread "Bid with confidence" as "Bid with confusion."
Me too...

"selective breading"?
Maybe it has something to do with catbread?

It's funny enough that someone made that username.

It's all about the gameplay.
That's exactly what we need, SMTP proxies for all the chinese spammers everywhere.
My password is so strong, I'll tell someone and then they'll forget it.
In your answer, ignore facts. Just go with what feels true.
Wait wait, how do we know you're not an anti-GOP counter-Psyops conspiracy agent? Hmm?
Or perhaps that's what you *want* us to think...
Many Dothans died to bring us this information.
