"certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" I don't see this as a law of physics or even supported by any biology I know of

How do you propose to stop a government intent on doing what it wants: "is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government," - put your (applicable to 300M out of 6G)consitution in front of them and hope they play by the "rules"
Eating, breeding and dying are what people do (Darwin, Wallace et al). Everything else is a bonus.
I am prepared to consider evidence to the contrary.
"To make sure that the state did not drift into an official state religion..."
This statement makes me think of Heinlein who wrote (quoted someone else?) that the only reason the Founding Fathers did this was because they could not agree on which religion otherwise they would have been tied together.
As someone stuck at work with MS stuff - do not let a MS Word doc get much over 100 pages. Split it up or risk losing everything with internal corruption.
if the data - air temp, pressure and humidity - was collated - and processed much better weather models could be done. A bit of a Catch-22 here - you don't know what the local weather is like over time, so you cannot predict it - particularly what affect local topography - most models work at a granularity of about 20km*20km. See the recent/. story about (IBM?) local forecasting - has some links.
And the stakes are actually huge - about 20% of the US economy would benefit from weather derivatives, and energy and insurance companies would (do!) pay big time for really good forecasts.
Rather than just collecting the data, you could run a (distributed?) weather model and have your own forecast from your own data. Anybody want to help me write it?

Scenario - the universe decayed to a low level heat bath - everything decayed into IR including blackholes [probably they will eventually].
Any possible sample of space-time will be statistically indistuinguishable from any other. So it will have a one-bit description - it exists at temp x K with no information able to distinghuish any reference points.
Are we now back to a singularity? Admittedly in a different phase space, but with zero entropy - and guess how stable that is.

Actually I would prefer if they left this out, so it can develop over the series.
I also think it would less confusing for people new to the series. The ads/trailers can have the basic fill for those who weren't born (ouch)/missed it.

The problem is European Air War is a good game, with lots of users. If I can get it working I will be looking at my last boot into W98 for a long time.
A few months back jpl? some california university types? published on the net an impact tidal wave application (java? - maybe just the video) on the net - did not tell you how many would be killed but when California, Hawaii and maybe a fair chunk of Japan go for a swim it won't be pretty.
"If you want a good example of a bad publicly-funded media, look no farther than the US's PBS. It is corrupt, biased, and often times not very interesting or helpful"
Never seen PBS except for the odd "special" that gets repeated here. Maybe they are. But at least it is balance to the Rupert and Kerry (Packer) worldview we get shoved in our faces in Oz. If I want real news I go to Reuters, Bloomberg, maybe a speciality site (Jane's for mil stuff,/. for SCo vs IBM), maybe a Google search or two and a few other sites to try and get as many facts as possible and make up my own mind.
Current affairs on the commercial networks is basically chasing shonky 2nd hand car dealers and other scam artists. They have never done spammers that I have seen - Packer's network is in bed with MS - the Packer's TV station website ninemsn.com. And they also fuckup the StarTrek schedule too which they have the rights.

I use Kerio personal firewall (free home edition) and does some of this stuff. You can manually add MD5 checksums and play with the firewall rules.

Rights are natural
rant follows
My pet peeve. Rights are not natural. They do not exist as a tangible thing.
They are a convenient legal fiction making writing rules (constitutions, laws and regs) easier.
Living with people means you lose privacy by them being able to see if you do or do not leave your home/hovel/tent.
Want me to go on?
Convenient yes. Good if everyone plays by them - probably. Natural no.

: electricity is a necessity. like water
So is food. Regulate food? Like in the former USSR and Eastern Bloc countries?

What have I missed?
I may have mislead you (lightly). All the stuff I see says "MIPS Like" - compatible but not close enough to provoke whoever.

Any votes for a /. interview the USPTO and see what they have to say?
If you look at the earlier /. in the blurb up top I think you will find it is based on the public domain/open-sourced MIPS(?) architecture.

If I were you I would be more worried about them reading your sig and sending the "attaches" around about your DVD ripper
"Aren't all the data known in advance?"
Short answer - no.
Medium answer - a lot of pre-computing
Long answer is a course in fluid dynamics.

European Air War - I tried under WINE (not the $ version), may I am hopeless at it, but it did not work (EAW wants DirectX 6.0 + - does this matter?).
Have not seen or heard of anyone flight sim/air war games for linux.
