If something is binary, weapons or no weapons, it can be proved one way or the other.
Is Gödel binary?
If a system is sufficiently complex (weapons industry), then there are certain assumptions that cannot be proven or disproven (not possession of WMDs) within the system. Therefore another system (UN, USA, whatever) outside of the first system has to proof that there are indeed WMDs. Its not the job of the Iraqis to proof they have no WMDs, it was the job of the UN (didnt find anything) or USA (proof: pretty powerpoint presentation feb03, lies) to proof it.
im currently behind the Great Firewall and without a proxy i can access most of the sites i usually visit: nytimes, the post, guardian, der spiegel, newsweek, grouphug o.O & co., scmp and of course/. with this story.
also, other good things that will get you around the wall (and that i am also normally using at home) are p2p software and freenet. and for your IM needs, use trillian with encryption, nothing will be blocked.
sci fi books that are published as a series usually suck. i dont want to read 3 or 4 or even more books that are written the same way over and over and deal with topics in a pseudo-like way.
if you want to find out about humans, society and such, serious literature is the way to go.

i remember that the esa and nasa mapped earth with a stereo antenna from the space shuttle and that the data costs a buck load of money to use.
The company now plans to stop making the electronics and movie tie-in products and return to its core mission: producing colored plastic building blocks for children.
"We would rather be in control of our own products, the things that we can decide," Kirk Kristiansen said. "We want to go back to our core products, and that is a key part of our future strategy."
so:
1) electronics means lego mindstorms because there is nothing else that is "electronics" in the lego product line.
2) classic lego bricks are going to be back!
this new ultra-cool-fighting-killing-fragging-heavy duty-the-toilet-paper-will-never-run-out-uniform is pretty good for those that want to use muscles and even "artificial" ones (one can never have enough) instead of their brains. sounds male and manly. cowboys ahead!
why do you always think of destroying terrorists with weapons, may they be high-tech or just simple kalaschnikovs? why dont you think about drying the terrorists support in countries in the third world where ppl live in poverty and then see how we in the first world live in our luxury (half of the worldÂs population have to live with less than 1$/day)? the problem is that almost everything is actio-reactio. "an eye for an eye leaves the world blind".
if bush is really serious about protecting america, then he shouldnt upgrade the military but support other countries humanitarily. the "war on terrorism" is leading no where. al qaeda gets more support than ever.
but there are also ppl saying that bush and his team doesnt really want to get the terrorists. they say that this war (which bush says to be endless) is only the cover for doing things like the recent war on iraq. say they got WMD and make them have to prove it (i still cant understand it), get in, protect the oil and leave hospitals without protection, then have no idea whatÂs going on the country that is in anarchy. oh, and btw, the WMD havent been found.
the problem is that even a lot of newspapers are owned by big companies. or single persons like murdoch owning all non-quality newspapers that reach more ppl than the quality ones. i usually read the nytimes online and it was the only newspaper that i found to be some kind of objective. if you have found another one plz tell me.
yeah, if my numbers are correst china has 3 million soldiers compared to 1.7 american soldiers (or even less). but chinaÂs military war built up in the cold war where big masses was the way to go. today though your forces have to be technologically advanced and have a lot of motorized units so that they can be deployed anywhere on earth in no time. thatÂs what the americans have.
but they are putting a lot more money into their military (329.1B USD compared to 47B USD).
well, if mass media can make ppl believe that saddam could strike with WMD within 45 min although he counldnt even piss over the tigris (Rice said in 2000 that saddam wouldnt be the slightest threat), then they can also make ppl afraid and paranoid. thats the power of the media and it will even grow if the big companies get bigger and are owned by only few in the end.
are you referring to the the kind of war like the one fought in iraq (with the WMD that havent been found) because of the so-called "bureaucracy reasons"? if so, its called "Preemptive War". but i believe that Fox News doesnt tell you this...
economic stability? which one? btw, theres more in the world than either youre with us, or against us. just a hint.
God (which one?) bless sanity.
well, its really funny that some ppl might think that a space mission to mars will trigger a new cold war + even a real war. hmmm... as far as im informed the ESA and NASA have been working together in numerous missions before with everyone depending on each other. the problem was that sometimes the europeans were only allowed to play the passengers and didnt get the science information first hand. some also mentioned the european gps system. it was started because the normal gps could be turned off at any place by the US military. so the european one is more like consumer-orientated (and not wobbling:). and the russians and chinese also have their gps system.
but on the whole i think that a little competition is never bad. but why does this sort of thing upset some ppl? afraid of a multipolar world (that some governor doesnt want). oh man!

Yes, however I dont think most slashdotters cracking jokes here are paramedics or have experienced similiar situations.
whoa, imagine that.

It is forbidden to put nuclear weapons into space but in the end we still dont know if the US is going to respect international treaties.

i read that the gps satellites would send their time ahead of the coords so that the gps receiver can reverse-calculate what the exact time is.
thank you for your post.
well, the EU countries dont show off their weapons and think publicly of using them.

some ppl urge to liberate the american ppl from this evil regime.
btw, the people are still sitting. if they stood up, they would be shot like 14 years ago.
this sounds Orwellian, but it doesnt surprise me anymore.
