Nice how you skipped over the being able to feed their own people part.
Also, when I see many people in a major US city wearing particle masks because the air is filthy and they can no longer drink their tap water, then _your_ comment will have some merit.
Yes, China has a long history of artisans, and a few key inventions like spaghetti and gunpowder, but come on, there was much more innovation in the last 100 years than in the previous 6900 and precious little of it came from China.
Let's hope they can innovate growing enough food to feed their people and also innovate a way to clean up the horrible mess they've made with pollution.
Are the photos of your neighborhood in b/w or color? If you follow Homestead east from DeAnza, you can see that rightr before you get to Quail, that the map becomes much more modern, as evidenced by the Kaiser buildings at Homestead/Lawrence, as this was a cherry orchard in 1994.
The Microsoft picture is from pre-1994 as County Highway 85 does not exist south of Steven Creek Blvd. This part of the highway was opened in 1994. If you look closely, you can see that most of the land for the highway has been cleared, but none of it is paved.
Before Apple, the campus was the HQ of the now-defunct Four Phase Systems. The buidling was sufficiently damaged in the earthquake on 17 Oct 1989, that it was abandoned and eventually razed.
I think you need to look a little more deeply into what TWX owns before making such a cavalier statement. I suspect that you would notice, you're just not aware of how right now.
How many are "a lot"? I know exactly 2 out of a few hundred people who have done this. I believe that those dropping conventional land-lines are still considered early adopters.
That's because in most cases, at least here in CA, you are contesting a moving violation, not a misdemeanor. You can choose to contest it as a misdemeanor, and get all the requisite priveleges that go along with it (I expect that getting booked, printed & phot'd will be part of the process). This will have the consequence of pissing off the judge and the DA to no end, so you'd really better be innocent before heading down this path.
Is there some massive bit accelerator that runs between Larry Wall's & Tom Christiansen's houses where new and heavier operators keep getting discovered?

No, more like 100 years versus 7000 years.

And look where Japan is now, versus where they were, say, 20 years ago.
I'm not suggesting we worry at all. Is it necessary for the US to be the leader?

China is still very much more a copier of technology than an innovator. Once they become successful innovators, then we have to worry.
Out of curiousity, what color is the sky on your planet?

So much for conspiracy theories.
hey, quit dicking around, you're putting yourself in a hole.
Oh wait, wrong site. :)
but probably not an irate spam recipient. More likely the Mafiya, either because he tried to screw them, or they want his turf.
I had a smiley too...

You would be incorrect as the day the bubble burst is generally considered to be March 10, 2000. Wikipedia entry.
I believe there was a Democrat in the White House during the entire Internet Bubble.

I take it you never saw the pics of the aftermath of Hurricane Camille where entire in-ground pools where moved? :)

There's a mirror here and a better obit from CNN here.

His main arguments are that CC unnecessarily complicates copyright law, and that the name sounds dumb
So does Dvorak
