Anhydrous ammonia has a hydrogen density of 0.12 gm/cm^3, compared to liquid hydrogen with a density of 0.07 gm/cm^3. In addition, ammonia is easy to reform for use in a fuel cell. Ammonia is already heavily distributed for agriculture, it volatilizes off as a lighter than air gas, it contains no carbon, and finding leaks is easy! The down side to either hydrogen-boride or ammonia is that they're not energy sources in themselves, but function (like a battery) as a convenient way to store energy.
The post is grossly misleading. Aluminum is a metal, aluminum oxy-nitride isn't. Iron ore isn't steel, either. Aluminum oxide (Al2O3) has also been used as a transparent bullet proof material, and it also isn't aluminum.
In a business environment, encrypting your work product would call for disciplinary action. Security is in the hands (competent or not) of the IT staff. What is on your computer is company property. I would assume, as a pointy haired manager, that encrypted material on a company hard drive was something in violation of company policy: warez, porn, etc..
(i.e. gain speed gradually on highways, instead of flooring it and dumping a gallon of gas down the drain)
This is wrong. Because of pumping losses gasoline engines are most efficient with zero intake vacuum (wide open throttle), and operating somewhere near the engines torque peak. Featherfooting it on a freeway merge ramp is both unsafe and inefficient.

Albany is for the benefit of the computer sellers: They can advertise Office and One-Care when in reality you only get the first month free.
R has comprehensive plotting, and can easily produce publication quality graphs. I use it extensively for data visualization.

All file managers suck, particularly on a linux system where you have (working) tab completion. For pity's sake, use the command line and an xterm.
