No, he did not! There was no second shot, therefore there was no first shot. Batman shot... end of story.:)

Ledger's Joker blows Nickolson's out of the water. Nickolson's Joker was insane, Ledger's is a creepy, psychotic, lying son-of-a-b*tch.
While the general plot of the movie is easy to see, trying to figure out what the heck the Joker was going to do next was nigh impossible. The only thing you knew for sure was that the Joker was going to be the last one standing, with a big sh*t-eating grin on his face, saying, "Want to know how I got these scars...?"
What's the point of archiving something if you're going to potentially lose information by dropping the resolution? Especially something like the aperture cards the OP is having archived. The Wikipedia image is horrible, and I can't imagine what that would look like in B&W... if that's a typical aperture card, it's going to look horrible.
And I'd be careful trusting the pdf optimizer for for file size reduction. Not always the best results.
But I'd still put my money on PDF.
I could argue that you've got a poorly made PDF. Especially one that's 18gigs in size, I've never seen one that large in ten years of working in the industry.
Or I could argue that storage costs will go up over time, not down, so your argument over file size is moot. A properly made pdf will have a reasonable file size.
Stick with PDF. Chances are, neither PDF nor TIFF will vanish overnight. I'd say PDF is easier to work with, even with minimalist free tools. Since either one is technically "good" for archiving, why do more work than you really need to do, even with batch processing it'd be a pain.
Acrobat has batch processing, and can convert pdfs to TIFF, JPEG, PNG and more. That would be my suggestion if you are really going to convert to TIFFs.
Woops, my bad... it's hosted on ISOHunt, but not a torrent. ISOHunt is blocked at my work, as are any torrents, so when it came up with the warning screen, I assumed it was a torrent, being ISOHunt after all.

There we have it...
We helped slashdot Mozilla.:P

Best. Trick. EVAR!
Ah, but can you go into hand-to-hand combat with it, and still hook it up afterward and type up your insanity defense?
I think not.

Er, storage capacity will go up over time, not down. *wishes for an edit button*

But it'll save it as multiple TIFF files, I don't think Acrobat has multiple-page TIFF capability.

Why would that link show up on the Firefox download page, if it wasn't being offered officially?
Since I got a link to a torrent at ISOHunt, I would say they are using bittorrents, or at least, bittorrent sites.

They are using some bittorrents. I got a link to ISOHunt.
Got it! It's up, the button says 3.0 and it links to one of multiple places that have it. Looks like they are using some bittorrents too.
I just got my "Today you'll make history..." reminder to download FF3. :P
Lets see if we can't help Mozilla along by not slashdotting it some more? :P
Someone should update the original article and say Mozilla is down.
Heh.

Why not? 'Cause that would have made sense.
Yes, the folders were created today... or touched today. The files are all June 11th.
Yeah, folks, check the dates... If the file (not the folder) is dated June 11th, its RC3. If it shows up as 7.332 mb, it's RC3.
RC3.
RC3s. :P June 11th for all the exes, at least the dozen or so I checked.
