  1. Re:i didn't like the demonization of fusion on Spider-Man 2 Has Over 30 Mistakes · · Score: 1

    Umm... fusion can destroy Manhattan. Ever heard of the Hydrogen Bomb? It works on fission to create fusion to make the bomb much more devastating than if it were just pure fission alone. And Hydrogen bombs uses Tritium and Deuterium (both isotopes of Hydrogen).

  2. Finally.. on Court Blocks FCC Media Ownership Rules · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The FCC is finally getting told what it's limits are.

  3. Re:Illegal? on Beastie Boys' New Album Silently Installs DRM Code · · Score: 1, Informative

    Actually, there are two definitions of "blue moon", and only one of them is particularly rare. The second full moon of the month happens every 32 months, but the second defenition refers to an atmospheric phenomena where the moon actually appears to be blue, usually due to particles in the air or smoke. Of course, the month of February will never have two moons within it because it is too short. Another interesting thing is that "once in a blue moon" refers to something rare, but "once in a blue sun" refers to something extremely rare (and yes, there are blue suns, and they are caused by the same atmospheric phenomena that cause a moon to appear blue). WARNING: Do not look directly at a blue sun!

  5. Re:well... on Pentagon Seeks A Loophole In The Privacy Act · · Score: 1

    After all, real Americans have nothing to hide, right? Well, no, not really. You're forgetting the smuggled cubanos, the illegal aliens making drugs in the basement, the "free" cable thanks in part to Best Buy and your next door neighbor who is on vacation, and various pr0n and erotica.

  6. What a pity on School Internet Program Audit Shows Fraud and Waste · · Score: 1

    I myself am still in highschool, and I know that where I live, such acts by anyone to drain money from a school would be very upsetting to many people. Especially when you count in the fact that for the past several years the schools have had to make budget cuts and work with the funds that they get now. I am outraged by this companies action, and I hope that many of you are as well. The children in those schools may well determine the future of the human race, or whether there is a future.

    [I]No, Orin Hatch is the number one producer of bullshit in Utah[/I] Umm.. since Orin Hatch is usually in Washington D.C. when his job is going on, wouldn't he be the number one producer of bullshit *FOR* Utah?
