  1. Re:Stephen Baxter's Titan on Chinese Astronaut Makes It Back Safely · · Score: 1
    Argh, to err is human.

    Of course I mean the Columbia accident... He'd have to be a real Nostrabaxter to get Challenger right in his 1997 book.

  2. Stephen Baxter's Titan on Chinese Astronaut Makes It Back Safely · · Score: 1
    This reminds me of the book "Titan" by Stephen Baxter.

    First he surmises the Challenger accident (if you haven't read it, it's worth doing just for that!), then the Chinese manned space flight, the manned flight to Titan, the US-Chinese war... ups, getting ahead of myself, we'll still have to wait a while for that...

  3. Who's who? on How to Fake A Hard Day at the Office · · Score: 1
    The best way is to tell everyone at work different names (which obviously works best at huge companies, but I'm not saying it's doomed in the family business). Then, when you're taking that well-earned extra hour of lunch or three week vacation at the Bahamas, everyone will just be confused.
    "Have you seen Mike?"
    "Yeah, Mike was over at the other building a minute ago. But where's Pete?"
    "Pete who?"
    Well, you get the picture... there's always a Mike or Bob or Trinity *sorry, Matrix overload* around. Just chill and show up at the next meeting with some nice graphs....

    Either that, or a lot of people will get fired.
