I agree - it's been speeding up for the last few millenia and it's only stopped doing that for the last 5 years? Could be anything - not necessarilly caused by human waste products, global warming (anti-ice-age or human) or anything else we understand.
Probably Voodoo...
Aren't the majority of wars based on religion?
Isn't that like saying "my imaginary friend is better than your imaginary friend"?
I say - ban religions and the world will become a more peaceful place....(slightly tongue-in-cheek, of course, that's not going to happen...)
Here is a great site that explains everything there is to know about UI's and gives real world (you use them every day) examples of "how not to"...
It's dated, but it's very, very good...
I recomend reading the Lotus Notes special page if you've ever used Lotus Notes - It's a Classic!!
Are you sure that American scientists can't be forced to work for the government?
What evidence do you have?
Lets just see what the anthax guy has to say about the military and scientists...
They say that he renamed and also embedded into some of the files his online alias, T33kids.
Now why would anybody intelligent enough to try modifying a worm be so dumb as to put up signs saying "I did it!! It was me...Jeffrey Lee Parson, 18, of Hopkins, Minnesota who is 6'4" tall and weighs 320lbs"??
And why did Yahoo! think that his height and weight were relevant?
Already the gutter press is out on a witchhunt for this guy...
I have to say, I agree with Kien. Not to p!ss off Ergo, but for Kiens principles.
Ergo does have a point, but does not argue it in the best way (Sorry Ergo). IMHO, I think that most software/music/movie companies realize that they can't beat the real pirates (aka the best virus developers work for the best anti-virus compaines), but will try to stop the grass roots (Joe Public) copying. Of course, once the crackers develop a good crack, and it becomes distributed, then these companies will try to stop THAT method. And so the game develops - just like car crime and car security companies...
I do, also, totally agree with Kien on his rejection of Intellectual Property. Especially pertaining to software...

Are you sure it's not used for both?
Do you think adding a day every 4 years is good enough resolution?
It'd be like measuring continental velocity in Furlongs per Fortnight....
The Atomic Clock, I think....

No, we agree with you - that's the thing about community posts - the majority get the voice... ONLY IF WE ARE THE MAJORITY!
Can't find Osamma can they? Little chance on Mars then.... Idiot!

No - They still have weapon caches... When did they come out of the terrorism business?
I should mention that the iarchitects.com site is no more (sadly) and that this is a mirror...

I bet the answer is 47 - it's always bloody 47..

Hmmm...you can actually disable that in Tools|Options|security...

Yeah, but I've just bragged to my buddy that I got it on with the best looking girl in the bar last night...
Bragging about it is one thing, but actually doing it (and leaving evidence) is another...
(And it's also amazingly weird that I thought I was subconsiously replying to myself - I'm Mark Smith... )
I have to agree - this sounds like a framing.
Yahoo! has the story of his arrest.
They say that he renamed and also embedded into some of the files his online alias, T33kids.

For anyone who doesn't know, The Sun's quality of journalism ranks at the heady heights found slighty above that of The National Enquirer in the USA.
So it's probably only a plan to monitor CO2 emmisions or something like that...
If it was true, there are, of course, some blatantly obvious questions:
- How do they know exactly WHO was driving at the time of the incident? (and how could they prove it?)
- How would it know the bounds of a bus lane (expensive infrastructure change to put any technology in the bus lanes)?
- If they're worried about speeding, why not regulate the vehicle to the posted speed limit?
- Wouldn't that be discriminatory? Because people bringing their vehicles from abroad wouldn't have those sensors?
