  1. Re:InfoWorld articles on Is the New Microsoft Office Really Open? · · Score: 1

    <i>The bad news is that XML Schema has been described even by XML experts as "confusing," "impenetrable," "fuzzy," and "as user-friendly as a stick in the eye." </i>

    The way I see it only programmers would mess with the schema so it doesn't have to be super user friendly. I personally wouldn't want someone messing with the Schema I use to publish my web pages.

  2. Evolution on Robocoaster · · Score: 1

    I agree with most people that this can't compete with modern coasters. But this is certainly better than the simulators we have today and is a step in the right direction. Instead of just mounting two seats on this thing they should mount an entire simulator and give you the visuals. Even better leave it as just two seats but build it into a traditional roller coaster car.

    A Hybrid of this Robocoaster and a Millenium Force type coastor would rock.

    1) Map Bottom of Hudson River Don't release information to the Public
    2) Give "rights to salvage" to political contributors
    3) Profit

  4. Re:so on Hudson River Shipwrecks Secretly Mapped · · Score: 1

    I would agree with you if the state was attempting to salvage them. Instead they will probably try to preserve them.

  5. National Park on Hudson River Shipwrecks Secretly Mapped · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The government should make the bottom of the river a national park. This would ensure that the ships are preserved as long as our country. Imagine if the Greeks or Egyptians had done this.

    BattleTech was the best ... it even had coverage on cable tv long before golden tee. Anyways in chicago you could play it at North Pier. Pier One is where your girlfriend buys candles

  7. Similar site on Earth as Art · · Score: 1

    This is a similar site that is more art related. It was a public art fest held in chicago. http://www.earthfromabovechicago.org/

  8. file format on Refrigerators To Cool With Sound (Cool!) · · Score: 1

    Sounds cool but what level of compression will it use? I insist on 256 kbps using ogg.

    I am really happy to hear this, I was in the same fraternity as Pav @ Purdue and he is a great guy that was getting the shaft. Down with the DMCA.

  11. Re:Witness on Hundreds Spot Fireballs In Colorado, Nearby States · · Score: 1

    A very similar thing happened to me. I too was hiking in the country when what I thought were stars began moving in a circle. They spun faster and faster. soon they were a blur of white light. Next individual stars rocketed out of the formation and hung suspened in the sky. When the spinning finally stopped they spelt out: "All your Base are Belong to Us" I have never been the same since.
