Yes, those jet engines are just big hollow tubes with absolutely no moving parts! No blades, compressors, widgets - it's like magic! And even if there was anything in this jet engine, all parts are undoubtedly coated with Teflon! As an added design bonus, nothing can pit them, especially small bits of glass being sucked in/expelled out at speeds that would remove all traces of flesh from a humanoid!
Sorry. could not resist.
How much does it cost to boost a decent amp and a pair of Magnepans up there? I'm assuming they can access their hoard of FLAC files form the ISS network, but might need a decent DAC.
Certain vintages (same grapestock, same vineyard, same winemaster) vary in perceived taste and value from year to year, depending on weather, harvest time, sugar content, etc. 1999 may be great, 2000 shoddy.
Is C-14 dating accurate to within one year? Hmm...
Regarding your comments re the filings of RIAA lawyers, the oldest/. expression comes to mind - "You must be new here". The unbelievable filings of HRO, Dwyer & Collora, and their predecessors over the last few years leads to the conclusion that there are a lot more bottom feeder law firms out there than anyone in the practice of law would like to admit.
As someone who left the law profession a few years ago, I can say now that IANAL, but the inane motions/filings on behalf of the record company plaintiffs truly stagger the imagination.
As far as I can tell, the only qualification to act as a plaintiff lawyer in these cases is that the you must suck it up and write as dictated by Matt Oppemheim. So the law firm must balance their reputation and bad PR against the fees.
So let's consider the case where more purchased music is paid for/downloaded instead of being purchased as a CD. A distributor that handles CD's find themselves with 1000 employees when they now need only 600. They lay off 400 employees because the business model has changed. Your fiance gets to look for a new job because.....
Sounds like you are looking for an explanation from Matt "The Dentist" Oppenheim, who directs the HRO team and local counsel. Based on his demeanor in the Joel Tenenbaum deposition in this case, he appears to have gone from just plain nasty to borderline obsessive.
"But as our resident high profile copyright lawyer..."
In case you haven't been watching Ray's blog, it has been a VERY busy week, and he has evidently been doing not only the typical lawyer hours, but keeping up with a dozen or so RIAA cases, answering emails, and saving western civilization from what appears to be an increasingly out of control Richard Gabriel.
Let him have Sunday evening off.
"Notebooks break, they get lost, and they are replaced frequently"
By what percent of notebook users?
This does not happen all the time in my universe.
Unsupported generalizations in a submission make me want to mod the whole thread down.
While I am not familiar with this particular AP reporter, I would prefer to see a news release by the USGS on the subject rather than one from a news service.
I was a USGS geologist in 1980 and did field work measuring the bulge prior to the May 1980 eruption. Anytime we were interviewed regarding the science, the resulting published story was almost always incredibly skewed/magled/distorted crap.
Should the licensed materials prove to be defective, you (and not the SONY BMG party concerned) agree to assume the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repairs or corrections.

Ms. Cochran is, I believe, at UC Riverside, not Irvine.

Research shows that 78% of all people who use the term "research shows" are just making s**t up.
"But it wouldn't be life as we know it, Jim."
..when there are further developments. I'll be at the Winchester.
Word on the street is that Matt The Dentist has his own posse/enforcer crew - no one messes with Da Dentist.
I went to school with Cosmic Ray and I know for a fact that he died in some ugly drowning incident involving a bong. Ray Dead = No more Cosmic Ray.
I call BS. 2009 attendance data (to date) - Best are the Yankees, with a 45K per game average. Worst are the Marlins, with a 18K per game average.

As far as the time period mentioned in the summary, 20 years (english units) ~ 20 metric years.

The university should have also stated that the evidence must come from investigators licensed in the state of North Carolina.
There are over 6 gazillion code comments that start "Damn it Jim, I'm a programmer, not a....."

"these guys don't.... sell harmful products, torture people, etc." You forgot about Rap.

Only 1200 were posted before the forum was shut down.
There is just no use for that much data on a phone. You mean "I personally have no use for this at this time."
