    Relative to what they each used to be, they are different. Compared to each other, the USD is still higher. As of this minute 1.00 CAD = 0741447 USD.

  2. Re:Recycle on Making Use Of Old LCDs? · · Score: 1

    You could take that idea one step further. Instead of staring at nothing while you're snorting, you could use the old LCD to show pictures of coke addicts more attractive than you. Robert Downey Jr., Uma Thurman, any other suggestions?

  3. Re:Keep it (Power Icon) on Modernizing the Save Icon? · · Score: 1

    OR, you show the superimposed icon and a one, to signify on/off. I've actually seen this on electronic devices from various well known companies. Apparently, designers have decided that a one and a zero mean off, but a one by itself means on. Go figure.

  7. Re:Oryx and Crake on Nebula Award Nominees Online · · Score: 1

    Atwood isn't on the list because she believes that science is dangerous and that science is dangerous knowledge and that scientists are evil men (redundant really) intent on destroying the world to satisfy their maniac fantasies. Her books are thinly veiled rants against her idea of the humanity's evils (men, capitalism, nuclear power, scientific preogress, etc...).

    Grrrrrr. It can be so annoying to live in Canada.
