This would be more interesting except for two things. I have heard how we will run out of IPV4 addresses before. In fact I have been hearing this for 10 years or more! It is difficult to get worried about this when we have already passed several of the predicted dates for the "end of the internet". CIDR, DHCP, and NAT have all helped to conserve the available addresses.
Then there is the question of why we should listen to Cisco. They are not in charge of allocating the address space nor do they run the backbone. (Administrate vs. run on their routers.) They do have a vested interest in selling new products to support IPV6.
It is unfortunate that IP didn't start with a bigger address space. Eventually recycling poorly used class A and B blocks is going to run out. Eventually we will move to IPV6 (assuming there isn't an IPV7 by then). But I suspect there is still some room to squeeze and no one is going to change until they have to.
This omits the solid boosters (SRB). They are not clean like the hydrogen/oxygen SSME. This also omits how they produce the liquid hydrogen and oxygen. And apparently the manuvering thruster fuel is very toxic.
Anyone else remember that when the first design for the shuttle was proposed it did not have the SRBs or external tank? Those two items were responsible for the two crashes! Too bad we can't pull out that original design they decided was too expensive and build it.
Tie the string to a piece of foam rubber, stick it in one end of the conduit, put the shop vac on the other end.
Of course after you have cable and want to add more then you need the string already in place.
You need to work on increasing air pollution so the free stuff is not desirable. Then people will start buying the canned air.
Oh wait! We are already doing that...
Wrong. Nothing on the 8th either.
Give that when Pearl Harbor was attacked it was already lafter afternoon in NY I don't find it weird at all. But not fining it on the 8th, and only finding a small mention on the 9th, that is weird.
My library had the NY Times on microfilm so I decided it would be interesting to look up famous dates. I checked Dec 7 1941 but there was no article on Perl Harbor. Figuring with the time difference and printing times it didn't make it I checked Dec. 8th. Still nothing. Gradually over the next few days the story began to trickle out that "yes, something happened", "a few ships were damaged", "quite a few ships were damaged". It was a week later before the story was consistant with what we now believe happen. Very different from the "Live from the field" news of today.
I have been present at two events that made it into the newspaper. In neither case could I even recognize the article as describing the same event.
All this ignores the issue that all the bees don't have to survive. Just a few hives, or even a
single hive, could survive. Maybe it was in an area that was warmed by geothermal action. Are
we assuming here that every single spot had the exact same temperatures?
Once things warmed back up the flowers will start blooming and the bees will start spreading. In
a few thousand years they would spread back to their entire range. Bees can spread across even oceans.
To take her theory seriously you have to assume that every bee hive on the entire planet was
exterminated. It just isn't reasonable that there would not be one hive in one valley that
survived.
While the meteorite theory is very interesting I personally think it was the birds that killed of
the dinosours. There is a long tradition of evolutionary advancments killing off their
ancestors.

No big deal now but what about the other instruments that got swapped that they haven't noticed yet?

Still cqmera? At 0.5 megapixels! Video, at 15 FPS! Sounds more like a toy to me.
