30 years of having emails.. that is enough time for two generations. I had an email account back in the 80s.. you also had BBS setups before the "internet".

You turned out OK, didn't you?
People anymore are so paranoid about everything anymore, it is a wonder society can even function. If you are THAT worried about it, then DON'T get them an email address.
'My next step is to talk to manufacturers to see if they will build a working prototype,' Yuan said. "If the design works in a real test stage, I want to find a company to manufacture and market it.""
I think the original point is.. they were done before: "Google Did It" or someone made a KML to do it. People have a mindset that if "Google didn't do it, it must never had been done before".
There is also a plug-in for WorldWind.net.. but that is only 400 objects.. though it could be easily tweaked to show the 13,000 list as well I am sure.
"a 1,720-foot-tall wave in Lituya Bay, Alaska."... skip a few... "To be fair, eyewitness accounts put the height of the wave as it came toward their boats at perhaps 100 feet. The tsunami scoured the land of vegetation and soil to a height of 1,720 feet above sea level, however."
There is "fair" and then there is CORRECT. This write up was NOT correct. It was a sloppily written "summary" that should have been rejected for "containing too much BS". Makes me yearn for the days when all/. submitters did was plagiarism by copying and pasting the first paragraph or so.
The bad writeup aside, it is an interesting article to read.
SDSS (Sloan Digital Sky Servey) has been in World Wind over a year now. And Stellarium is still the best way to properly look at the sky from a computer. You have no true reference points in the GE Sky.. it is just a "pretty viewer".
I believe more in the Chevy Volt than this car.. all electric, but has a small engine that can run gas, e85 or biodiesel that will only recharge the battery not power the drive.
Short commutes, use no or very little fuel. But if you want to go to grandmas house 500 miles away, you can still use the same car and not worry about finding a plug in 100 miles.
What kind of company do you work at where the people that work there have to buy their own software? (Well, unless they are contractors... but then you just bill the company in computer hours and that is paid off in a few months) Do you also have to buy your own computers and pay to enter the building?
Write up a purchase order and get the software you need. Typically it is also cheaper than going outright and buying the software.
2-5 minute cut scenes are one thing... having to wait 30 to 40 minutes till I can play again are another.
Xenosaga has amazing cut scenes... but I would have to watch for almost 40 minutes till I could play again.. that is not a game, that is an Anime episode where you get to move a charcter once and a while.
I had that figured out 4 years ago. I have been waiting 4+ years for some kind of broadband to get to my location.. and all I get from Verzon is "we are expanding to your area by the end of the year".. for the last 4 years. While they keep improving the areas where they make most their money.
I am sure once more "City Folk" move out by where I live, broadband will come flying in and those poeple will only have waited maybe a year and think it is "Amazing how fast broadband came here!"
Slashdot Mirror
You know, that area on the windows tool bar that gives you quick access to applications? Been there since Windows95 I think..

And NASA's J-Track

Though at the time.. it was just a April Fools joke..
That is... so disturbing..
NOTHING can replace Slashdot for that!
Once the ashes spread through the atmosphere... ALL of us will have a little Scotty in them from now on.

Hmm, that is taken from the MAIN road, not a PRIVATE road. I guess local government obeys :Private Road" signs. Amazing!
NASA World Wind is open source and is uses by the DoD and other governmental groups.
Almost makes me want to get a PS3... but not for just 1 game that I would like to play.
EA Would... they like cheap labor they can burn out in a few months and ditch.
There is also Celestia

Yet.. the articles I read said that there were no reported earthquakes in the time period to explain the crack opening. THAT is what the mystery is.

Windows, actually.. that is World Wind on there and that does not work in Linux.
No one noticed they are all Chevy vehicles? Including next year's Camero (Bumblebee)?

As soon as you show us where this "Irak" is.
