Buy them Euclid's "Elements". It won't get outdated. And they aren't 80 bucks each. Probably 15 from Dover books. Hell it's even in the public domain, we could just print up copies and mail them to the poor little buggers.
I use pop, but I don't remove my mail on gmail. So I have two copies - one on my laptop. If I don't have my laptop, I can check my mail at the website. What is the advantage of this new system ?
The Direct Launch approach, which you can look at in detail here at their website sounds like some people are trying hard to come up with a smart solution, but it isn't clear to an amatuer like me how the current safety issues of the Shuttle would be avoided. I guess maybe because there is no Shuttle for falling foam to hit, for one ?
And yeah, Griffin does come off as a real jerk, esp. when discussing the Shuttle accidents.
Isn't a filter supposed to keep all those caps out of posts ?
Anyway, yes you are right, the Beatles weren't commercial at all. That is evident especially now from how they are being such primadonnas about having their music digitally available (online, whatever).
I think to clarify the situation it should be pointed out that pea soup isn't the greenest soup. That would probably be broccoli. Can the parent be modded down for culinary trolling ? He probably knew that all the broccoli people would jump in screaming to the thread.
Do you really think that the money for this would come from that ? That's not the entire budget used for the ISS for example, and the shuttle missions. Special money is allocated for such projects.
And if your concerned about who gets how much, note that the NSF Math & Physical Sciences gets only about 150 million.
Yeah, well maybe the reason he did such a poor job was because he had no experienced. So why was he chosen for the job ? Was there really no one else available who was more qualified ? LOOK at his resume.
I said it was weird, nothing more. If you look at his experience prior to running the FCC it is shocking that he got that job. He was a really junior lawyer, with no background in broadcasting or communications. Call it what you like. You can see his remarkably minimal qualifications here at wikipedia. I can't believe anyone could think he was a reasonable choice.
These programs are the SDI of Nasa, although SDI turned out to be useful strategically. Basically the money for these programs would be pork. Why not give it to the NIH and the NSF ?
I don't use many minutes. I am tempted to cancel from evil AT&T and get a monthly phone that is real cheap and no contract. Any comments on whether I will get screwed ?

Yes yes yes!! Thank you for adding that. It's along the same lines of saying you can only listen to music purchased from iTunes on an iPod.
Can we please move beyond the Beatles ? They're OK but enough already.

Michael, is that you ?
It weird that he got the job since he had so little experience. Just a couple years out of law school, that's it. Check him out on WIki.
People post things like this to archiv all the time. It doesn't mean it is correct or deep.

It should be "Who will Obama tap..."
Apparently, he is the only one who could defeat this system, due to his rhinestone covered suit.
Thank the gravitational pull of the moon!
The internet rewrites the airforce!!! Ha!
but I'd hardly call it an age old question. Never heard of it.
How about applying your logic to this:
1. We compressed some plutonium with conventional explosives at a test site in the desert.
2. Coincidentally, a really large explosion occured, including large release of radiation.
Could it be that they are related ? I dunno....
This isn't the reason for what's happened. But a lot of people hate math.
