And storing electricity isnt that effective as using stored fossil fuels. Right now, there isnt THAT big focus because the end of carbon-based fuels isnt atleast near to 200 years, and the perception is: we could go slower (in research) till it is very much on our neck
.. remember the alternative sun being created by (or attempted by) the Chinese? But, solar and wind energy (unlike say Hydrogen) are so region specific, that they impose problems for wide-spread acceptability. And there arent any means found to store them successfully.
OMG! Thanks to/.. everybody here tried googling for "BMW germany", and then not satisfied, went to bmw.de, and now the pagerank is back to where it was a week back!
Congrats! You have been granted this patent, and we shall not verify the claim as you were the first to question. PLease send a check for a bazillion dollars to my Nigerian associate: PO Box 416, Scamtown, Nigeria. And please dont forget that this is valid for only 4 years, so please hurry.
didnt the summary say that the sacrifice for getting the patent processed faster is that the duration is just 4 years from the product being rolled out? and not 17 years?

It is a mindless speculation, to fill material for their website, and for us to idle away our time discussing/predicting/speculating about Google's future. troll? I dont think so, just an overdose of Google stories (Googlophobia? had to google to check if thats right!)
point to note:..the ADAS system will beep every 10 seconds to make sure you're paying attention, requiring you to touch the steering wheel to inform the car you're still in charge..
so there goes the "fun", I have to tap it regularly not to make it feel deprived..
this is the worst part, explaining a lame/dead joke: Slashdot hit the all-time-high of Google stories, that even searches for google were leading to slashdot.. hmmn? maybe I should take my day off and get back to sleep
true, you showed the pros, and the cons? Once they become the standard, or choice, then what about the other small distros that bring forward new ideas and creativity? They would inevitably get killed, killing in process the very essence of variety and creating a monopoly..
arent we hitting the threshold of Google-in-China stories? Even Eric, Sergey and Brin might not have discussed so much.. If anyone from China wants to get uncensored results from google, please call me at 444-444-4444 (Intl rates apply, $2.99/min +taxes)

actually, my question was directed to Jimmy Wales (I was adding to your question) :)
I would like to add to the question above, that how often do you use Wikipedia to get information, and how much do you rely on it?
Here it is.

atleast it is less polluting, 1 good reason to switch? thats why at some places, Govt./employer give tax exemptions/benefits for using hybrid vehicles

it was a lame joke.. I should reconsider my humor quotient
OMG! Thanks to /.. everybody here tried googling for "BMW germany", and then not satisfied, went to bmw.de, and now the pagerank is back to where it was a week back!
this is the ONLY reason that could make me stay longer in grad school (resist the temptation.. resist)
..US wasnt giving up the "internet-ownership"?

Just like it boosted Napster's shares, this acquisition might boost your chances to get laid..

a search for the keyword "google" on google.com shows slashdot as the first result!
