  1. The Best? on Cloned Beef Coming Soon? · · Score: 1
    Apparently only 1 in 8000 animals is truly the best.


    Somehow I thought only one cow could truly be the best.
  2. Re:Obviously on Stuart Cohen Predicts Office for Linux · · Score: 1
    "Office for Linux" will no doubt be released immediately following Microsoft's long anticipated version of "Wings for Pigs."

  5. Re:Mixed it all together... on Old Methods Used to Detect Liquid Explosives · · Score: 1
    A key question, though, is whether this kind of detection system can realistically block terrorists from bringing seemingly innocuous liquids past security and combining them later to deadly effect.

    It's simple. Have them mixed all the stuff together. If it goes BOOM, that's bad. If it doesn't, no problem.


    Then after that, make them drink the liquids. If they refuse to drink it then its obviously a bomb.

    When will the world learn that Geeks and Nerds are completely different "types" - they are not interchangable... Some may class themselves as both - But most of us 'Geeks' would agree we are definitely NOT 'Nerds'...

    Some one has been watching too many earthlink commercials

  22. Re:Boycott both. on Dell and Napster Going Directly to Colleges · · Score: 1

    Hopefully most college students will find a way to crack Napster's DRM and be allowed to keep and use the music they buy.
