    Lol, they will probably just get something that resembles seaweed. (That's what I got my first try in college anyway.)

    ha ha, i had the same thought. nobody got rid of adobe pagemaker or quark when publisher came out either. dear [diety], i cant imagine how crappy Sparkle will be, when i remember that frontpage was MS's answer to Dreamweaver.

  3. Re:Good. on Nobel Laureate Agre Fears for Scientific Freedom · · Score: 1

    "...if scientists had put their knowledge to true good they would have developed polution friendly methods of power, chemical weapons what made the enemy fall pass out instead of die..."

    scientists dont work for good or evil, they are just looking for what is factual. it is not personal, the uses to which thier discoveries go are not always up to them.
    They are also subject to finding funding -- w/o funding, there is very little research that can be done in most areas.

    there are scientists who are currently looking for friendly methods of power-- but they just dont get funded. (read: Oil Economy)

    and as far as non-leathal weapons? Do you actually think that at least the US Military is even remotely interested in funding that?
