  1. Re:No change in sea level. on Arctic Ice May Melt By 2040 · · Score: 1

    Proving when ice melts the water level stays the same was my 6th grade science fair experiment. I didn't win the fair but I got an A presenting it in class. Go science!

  2. Re:the minute it comes down to earth ./~ on NASA Detects Meteoric Rise In Lunar Meteors · · Score: 1

    "A shooting star is not a star, why does it shine so bright? The friction as it falls through air produces heat and light." Its actually caused by Ram pressure, the air ahead of it being compressed and heated up, in turn heating the object until it glows. This of course, does not fit into a poem as well.

  3. Its easy... on Why the Word 'Planet' Will Never Be Defined · · Score: 1

    I can define planet easily, Planet: n, Wandering star.

  4. Wheres the missing cheese? on No Ice on the Moon · · Score: 3, Funny

    The real question is what percent of that dust is cheese!?

  5. Re:Simple Child Care on School Bans 'Tag' · · Score: 1

    Don't fret, I full intend to beat my spawn.

  6. "Natives"? on Human Species May Split In Two · · Score: 1

    I've actually been thinking about people who still live primitively on secluded islands in the Pacific or Indian Ocean that don't get much contact with those of us more technologically progressed. Wouldn't they likely be the first left behind in human evolution? We already treat them like another species, being allowed to show their "naughty bits" in the same way as animals on public access cable yet not the genitals of more civilized people.

  7. Censorship? on Google to Digitize National Archives Footage · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I may be wrong, but isn't there pr0n in the National Archives?

  8. Re:Eh? on A 1.2 Petabyte Hard Drive? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If I owned some giant company needing hundreds of terabytes of storage, I'd use these as economical backup storage. If you're storing terabytes, you can afford to throw away a few 750 dollar drives.

  9. Re:I'll top that... on NASA Offers Reward for Extracting O2 from Moondust · · Score: 1

    Y'know its pretty cheap to turn lead into gold. Once you get a hold of the proper equipment (which will cost under 200 million)
