unfortunately, i can't find a link to an archive, but shortly after the X Prize was won, the founder of the X Prize was interviewed on NPR (might have been Talk of the Nation). he talked at length about how one of the fundamental benefits of being able to occupy space is that we would be able to harness so much more energy from space than we can from earth. he seemed to be of the opinion that there was a way to transfer this energy from space, where it was collected, to earth, using some kind of wireless technology. while this might take longer than a wind power station to develop, it would certainly produce far more energy once up and running. (sorry this is so vague, i can't find the archive.)
when is someone going to create
a hyper-allergenic cat
for those of us
within the persecuted minority
who don't have allergies?
i want a cat that makes me sneeze
when everyone else's cat doesn't.
that way,
i'll be just like all my friends
and get to complain about my sore nose
and the absurd cost of Claritin.
I would suggest that what they're saying is not "people in this position need to spend money", but rather "people in this position need to make a choice. which is 'more expensive'?
1) updating to current hardware that can run current, more secure software, or
2) keeping old software on old hardware, that is fraught with security problems and is no longer supported by pretty much anyone (aka, you will get less and less help as the task of keeping the system problem-free gets harder and harder)".

how were all those metal chixxx
getting their jeans on in the morning
during the height of the hair metal days?
that aside,
wouldn't spray on clothing
simply be a matter of turning liquid latex
into an aerosol?
mmmm... maybe i should patent.

Rated R for Retarded... as opposed to those lurky nerds who troll Internet forums looking for cheap excuses to drop video game references?

my company pays entry-level developers half that. where you live is a huge factor in all this.
