A friend of mine is looking to go into meteorology...he told me that there are two course paths offered by most colleges with progrmas: a BA and a BS. I always thought it was rather telling. Apparently the BA program gets about 4 times the applicants of the BS.
Smaller scale websites don't make that much money off advertising.
Personally, I've always prefered sites that require a small subscription fee. Even a tiny sum of money from as many readers as Slashdot has could help to make the sit considerably better than it is now.
As soon as there are web ad's that are certain not to infect my computer with a tidal wave of spyware...I will stop using tools to block them. Till then, I'm making my computers safety paramont over other concerns.

I think the massive awesomeness of having the name "William Speed Weed" in a by-line needs to be pointed out here...
To say nothing of the incredible lack of dignity being a meteorologist among "weathermen" as some are.
