    Although the technology is still in its early stages , it looks promising enaugh to reduce energy waste in households.

  2. It's been done. on Using Games to Improve Medicine · · Score: 1

    To those who played "Life & Death I or II" surgery simulation. That was always fun, but somehow I have always kiled my patient after first incision :(

  3. Long term effects? on Turn Your House Plants Into Speakers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    All well and good (plants liking music), but what would be long term effects of exposing plants directly to all vibrations (esp. if you like high volume)

    I for one wouldnt connect my award winning lily to it.

    (Afterthought) Got to check warranty for something like:
    "Company is not liable for any damge sustained by the plans due to the use of this equipment."

  4. Total isolation on offer. on Replace Your Windows With LCD Panels · · Score: 2, Funny

    Hear ye, Hear ye!

    Finally grand dream of the geek comes true. Possblity of the total isolation from the outside world (those pesky sun rays, other people who might actually want to talk to you in person)and its still done in high tech manner with no need to use primitive bricks and mortar.

    And wait there is more: You can display your favourite games landscape complete with purple skies and those horny female aliens.

  5. How do they compare? on Obsessively Detailed Map Of Springfield · · Score: 1

    How detailed was the map in the Simpsons Hit n' Run? (havnt played it)
    Is it as detailed as the one above?

  6. Re:Oooh on Hot Rod Job For SpaceShipOne · · Score: 1

    They should paint it red as well.

  7. Discoveries piling on. on New Ring Discovered Around Saturn · · Score: 1

    It was sure worth sending this probe, given all the data it has already provided. Scientists must be jumping up and down. However, are we now supposed to modify all the existing drawings and pictures of Saturn to include a new ring?
