Think of all the people that will be missing out on quality messaging conversations if this were to happen. I mean, who wouldn't miss things written in all caps, ie. bash.org.
Actually, the Clinton/Gore era gave the American telcos $200 BILLION in tax breaks so that we would have fiber and coax to our homes, at speeds of around 45Mbps. A decade later, we are still stuck on copper, paying insane amounts for abysmal performance. See the new networks site for more.
1) I think Google's lawyer said it all; they have no obligation to promote competitors.
2) Why are people too stupid to put the.com at the end of a business name? That is how I found the site.
3) They are not paying Google to place their site in the rankings, and Google has absolutely no contractual agreements to place them anywhere. They should be happy with what they get. . . or should I sue becuase my site is not even near the first few dozen pages?
Why can't people just shut up and go away. I am tired of stuff like this.
Remember that you need oxygen to start a fire. Arc all you want through the pure methan in gas mains an you won't get a flame. Now if the utilities are stupid and dig up both at the same time (ie. accidentally), then get out your fire suit, cause that is a fire too see (most likely not an explosio though).
This sounds like an article that I saw on japan.com a year or so ago, but that motor was 330% effiecient (link now down). Their ambitious plans? Fans in convenience stores. I guess if you are out to break the laws of thermodynamics, then you have to hide it.
As mentioned a bit earlier, just look to New Generation Motors for a super high efficiency motor (primarilly solar cars). They are efficient, but reach over 100dB at 550 RPM and 2500 W / 3.25 HP. And, speaking from experience, that is a loud little thing to have right behind your head.
Maybe in the future someone at these sites will actually show some science behind the laws of physics that, apparenty, no longer apply so we can show them where they went wrong.
Being on the U of MN Solar Vehicle Project, I can agree that in it's current state, you will never see a car that is powered completely by the sun. Also being a driver, I will say that the cars are uncomfortable to ride in, hot, noisy, and the suspensions are very stiff to make it more efficient.
That being said, the project is a way for engineers to learn about many different technologies that they would never be exposed to in the classroom. Companies love to hire those that have worked on these cars because they have experience in not just concept to production, but also in management and taking responsibility.
After racing or so many years, the cars have reached a point where they are all very light and collect approximately the same amount of solar energy. The callenge is to create a reliable car, which is more difficult than one may think. Teams spend two years designing and building a car, and in the end, there is inevitably still work to do the night before the race. An additional challenge this year is that the cars will be headng north to Canada, where much less light is available.
And it is still awesome to see the looks on faces of people (especially kids) as that funny looking car pulls into a stop. Everyone that sees it is amazed and has tons of questions, so you can;t really say it gets boring (unless you never get a chance to actually see it).

...Soylent Green is people.
Just a little food for thought.
