I think the interviewer took the wrong tack in questioning Jack Valenti. Instead of asking so many questions about iCrave he should have asked more about DeCSS. Personally, I think that iCrave is acting illegally and are violating real copyrights. That is a black and white issue. So, the interviewer should have spent more time on DeCSS which is a tool with legitimate uses. If he had raised this point and asked more questions about it, he could have made more impact on the DeCSS case.
I'm sorry, but I have to side with Blizzard on this one. If you look at blizzard.net and follow some of the links on that page you will realize that the creators of that page are complete idiots. I would not be surprised if those same people are a source of spam, as well as being involved in real-world pyramid schemes. I applaud Blizzard and I hope they put these people out of business.
At that point you could basically toss boxes of cargo into space, no need for elaborate packaging, just make it aerodynamic, strap it onto the "maggun" on mt. kilimanjaro and thoomp, its in orbit.
The problem that I see with this is what happens if the rocket misfires. The object that they're trying to launch has already been lifted x feet off the ground. This seems like a recipe for disaster to me.

www.paymybills.com is quite cool. Now I wish I had more bills to pay through them!
You are absolutely correct that there need to be more Akira Kurosawas, but he is Japanese, not Chinese.
Many people seemed to have missed that Cryptonomicon was fiction. Next people will be using examples from Necromancer....
Shut your fucking face uncle fucka
I believe that there may be a Linux Killer on its way. It may even come from within the Open Source Community. Its name might be HURD!

GEOS is not dead, it simply moved into the embedded market.
