    Am I the only person who has noticed the Authors name? Seth Lloyd = Sith Lord I think we should be very cautious of these findings.

  3. A shame.. on Life Recorder · · Score: 2, Interesting

    When I read the article, I thought - thats a great device, something to record my life, like a diary.
    Then I realised it was conceived as anti violent crime device. Thats so depressing, Its not magic diary, its a bulletproof vest for daily life!

    How many good ideas get subverted in the name of personal protection?

    Not sure about the Columbus one, many people would disagree. But it doesnt much interest me. However, The Bell/Meucci thing does - as the post after your rather silly one says, its not that clear - Last week I was at Ericcson in Stockholm, and they showed me their first handsets, based on the work of Meucci..

  10. Hang on... on AT&T To Decommission Pay Phones · · Score: 4, Informative

    Bell did not invent the telephone. It was Antonio Meucci!
