We can still have nuclear powered cars, just not in the way everyone is thinking.
Electric (or hybrid cars) can use power from the grid, which can come from nuclear. You can buy credits to make sure that power came from nuclear, or a renewable source.
If you think about it the current method is the same. You don't put crude oil into your car, it is processed first. So think of electricity from a plug as processed nuclear energy.
All we need is more electric cars and more plugs at gas stations.
He was in his VB class making a program and at the end it would print it's contents. He decided it would be cool to have it ask how many copies you wanted. So he coded it. It turns out he forgot to define the variable he used, so instead of printing 1 copy, it got stuck in a loop of printing. As mentioned above this was during a class, which had a laser printer that printed at least 5 sheets a second.
I wonder if it would be legal if you put a diclamer in your AOL or AIM profile that says "by IMimg me you give consent to have the conversation logged". Since profiles are public and easily veiwed I think it would be fair warning. If you say you have DeadAIM in your profile, which logs by default, then wouldn't that also be fair warning.
The only people who aren't able to view profiles are using third party clients, which use auto-logging anyway.
Those yahoos would also be less likely to pay extra for a firewall (as in a seperate one) or have an extra system laying around. Not to mention they would not know how to use either.
If they could just pick the computer up from the store and have the firewall already on and configured it would be a good thing.
However if you can only use your ham radio when the power is out, then why own one? People won't want to own them if they can't use them. Then when the power goes out almost no one will have them.
Those are good and interesting points.
I was wondering if it's legal if they allowed you to return it, but charged you for it.
An example would be if a store charges a restocking fee or if the company makes you ship the product to them (at cost to you).
What if you take that a step further and have the company charge you a fee to return the item. What if that fee is large or even equal to what you would get back, so either way your screwed.

In addition it is good with load balancing, so you don't have the problem of lots of people using one server and another not being used.

They probably use metal for certain parts such as under fixtures like toilets and sinks and for hot water.
They have an advanced piece of technology protecting the shuttles, it's called a tarp.
A friend of mine did something similar in VB.

You could allways use a digital to analogue converter on the old TVs, at least if you have cable, satilite, or an external antennae.
Eventually all the new TVs will be digital and thus come down in price, so it won't be that much of a problem.
Just make it some enourmous fine... $25000 per offense or some such figure when the device is used for a non-emergency purpose.
Or even better make it interfering with or impersonating goverment employees/property and have a fine and jail time.
