    "Blame your country for being stupid enough to sell the internet as a free infrastructure (free as in speech) to the rest of the world when it was their mean of controlling the world's communications, they fail."

    I wonder how much tax revenue the U.S. has generated from U.S. based .coms thanks to foreign commerce. Stupid for giving it away indeed. Probably the smartest move the U.S. government ever made.

  4. Re:When will people stop quoting Pimental .... on Ethanol More Trouble Than It's Worth? · · Score: 1

    this is already being done. I have worked in ADM's faciltiy in Decatur Il off and on for 20 years. The mash IS used to make animal feed, including but not limited to cattle and dog foods. The CO2 byproduct created is used as well, one of the biggest consumer's of 'waste' CO2 is Anheuser Busch. Considering Ethanols place in the production chain and taking into account all of the other things made from the same bushel of corn that ethanol is made from, ethanol production actually seems quite efficient

  7. lightning kills trucks dead on When Lightning Strikes · · Score: 2

    I drove semi trucks for several years. In a thunderstorm near Decatur Illinois I saw a bright flash and heard a loud pop the realized my engine was dead. I was able to coast to an off-ramp and park. When I inspected my truck I realized I had no electrical power at all. Finally I took look at my cb antenna which was made of fiberglass and it was melted. Lightning had struck the cb antenna and fried $12,000 dollars worth of electrical components in the semi. The brain box and every sensor on the engine had to be replaced. Funny thing is I was listening to the radio which just happened to be playing REO Speedwagon Riding the Storm Out. AN experience I will never forget.

  8. Glad to see it on AMD Back in the Black · · Score: 1

    I for one am glad to see this news. As an amd reseller I have dealt with their customer service department and IMO they are one of the best in the biz. A great company, they make a great product, they should be profitable. Contracting with IBM may well be one of the best decisions they made and probably contributed to this news.
