To share a similar experience, despite the reaction to such a post, I used to get sick regularly, usually bronchitis. Since I've gone vegan I haven't needed to see a doctor once, and it has been years. On rare occasions something will catch me, but it is generally put down in very short order. I've heard others with similar experiences, I wouldn't write the idea completely off like everyone seems to be.
When I was younger I was diagnosed with ADD and put on ritalin. It worked, for about three quarters of the school year, then effects diminished. They tried several alternatives, but nothing did it. It seems, I can think much better without their "treatment" and wonder if they had been holding me back. Grades are one thing, intelligence is another.
Just thought I'd state that I'd rather have not been given them at all, and you should be careful, especially with children. It definitely wasn't worth it to me, but I was too young to know or refuse.
Apparently their web scheduling is free, but to do it from your phone (on verizon) you need web enabled, which is a $5/month subscription from verizon anyways.
In other news, Kansas state government declared that all oranges must be sold with at least one apple. The apple doesn't have to be edible, it just has to be an apple. But one speculation, it must be OUR apple.
If he's regurgitating what he is being told to, then I might be surprised if any real innovation came out of him.
I don't mean to hate on the 8-year old, but thinking for yourself is a big step towards innovation, and dreaming about flying cars is not something that most 8-year olds couldn't be expected to do... Even if he did slap string theory on there (or someone else did), I'll bet he's missing quite a few connections to make such a wish a viable opportunity.
It's really a bit too early to say, let him hit maturity and then we'll talk, no sense in elevating his ego any more in the meantime if anyone expects something great of him.
You're way off buddy, it's more like your forcefield fails, a cat sneaks onto your ship while you're making a sandwich, then you forget about the sandwich and still don't feed the cat. When the cat finally gets upset and leaves, you take a shower and then take a nap.
I don't see how you could have missed this from the start.

On the flip side of the coin, I assume from the zealous blabbing that we're supposed to believe it is evil, because you say it is? Way to bring Nazis in to the topic too.
Sony (at least the gaming division) isn't _quite_ bad enough in my eyes to outweigh the sweetness of the psp.
I of all people understand using my dollars to send a message, not shopping at Walmart, not buying RIAA backed music, and being vegan. I also support the homebrewn community, which according to Sony is terrible for them.
I would love to believe that, because I really hate Sony, but I don't think that's what's going on.
There have been hackers amongst the psp community who have joked about it, and made the information public titled exactly "How to brick your psp". There has been bad blood between a few groups, some of which I wouldn't put it past.
I love my psp, very sweet machine, but Sony still steams me.
Right, because we know no one actually owns a copy of the games they want to emulate.
Apparently, I just imagined that there was a VNC client, ScummVM port, PDF reader, file manager, Doom port, Heretic, Hexen, a port of Quake in progess, etc... in addition to some pretty decent homebrewn games...
I would be lying if I were to say I don't enjoy playing my old genesis favourites on the psp, but even those I own.
Where I sit on the Cedega issue is that while it may be causing less linux gamers to be accounted for, it makes it easier for more people to actually make the switch.
Eventually of course, linux users will number high enough for game companies to actually start paying attention to linux.
And as a linux user, and gamer, I appreciate what they do... Because of their work I'm never going to dual boot windows for gaming, and I look forward to playing HL2 when I get around to getting a decent system built.

I was going to say something quite like that right now, and it is right. We are machines, live with it people.

That is what mirages do. You move, so do they. You get too close, they vanish. It's likely no more supernatural than ordinary water mirages.
Atmospheric conditions play a big part, air will do funny things with light under the right conditions. For example the Min Min Lights.
What the students did was verify that cars can indeed cause "mysterious" lights, and probably do at least part of the time.
I'm sorry, but I have to agree here. Surge rocked some serious ass.
Dinosaurs didn't have steamrollers.
The real question is, how did they learn to build freeways.

Also, Bender loves to burgle, hasn't anyone watched Futurama? Clearly a superior form of the word.
Ever been redirected?

I'd say it should be "Why would the future be different?"....
Because, it very well _should_ be different, if only people could get over themselves.
What on earth have you done to your cats man?
I've pondered the idea of using a couple of old cell phones I have as tone dialers/boxes (red, blue, etc....).
Sadly, thinking about it is as far as I've gotten. Might be cool if someone a little more handy with programming for cell phones could do something.
Speaking purely for geek points of course, as most of these tone boxes don't actually work anymore. Though red boxes do indeed still function here.
We don't seem to have it here in Independence/Kansas City missouri either, though there seems to be access pretty well everywhere else in Missouri.
Those types of proxies often still contain the original URL behind that of the proxy. Sometimes mangled, sometimes not.
Not something I'd want to put any money on.
What's stopping you or us from worrying about both?

Oh, those.
Uh, I've already got one, you see. It's very nice-a.
