The problem is that smallpox spreads, whereas H-bombs generally do not (ignoring such things as fallout, which do spread, but which greatly decrease in potency with distance).
How about a diode with a constant voltage drop. Of course, doing anything like this would loose a lot of energy, so much that it likely wouldn't be worth it.
Wasn't the first Gulf War also for the freedom of the Kuwaitis(sp?)? This war was, at least in part, for the freedom of the Iraqis. Why should we hold the value of freedom for ourselves so highly, and say that it is worthless to other people? Must we ignore the rest of the world? We can work for freedom both at home and abroad.
You think think that we would send up people on the more dangerous and more expensive rockets, and then send their cargo on the safer and cheaper elevator? Not to mention the fact that the ISS is well below (and travelling much faster than) geostationary orbit, so the supplies would still need rockets (with a lot of power) to get there.
The lamp isn't putting off nearly as much light at those three wavelengths (red, green, blue) as the projector does. Much of the light of the lamp is spread out over other frequencies, while the projector outputs almost everything in the same three areas. The projector can drown out the tiny amount of light the lamp puts out in those frequencies; in comparison with any spot that has both the lamp and projector shining on it, a spot that has just the lamp shining on it will look black.

How did he figure out if it was resistant to Roundup if he didn't use it?

Of course, but for purposes of backwards compatability, the DOCTYPE tag, even if it isn't completely applicable to the standard, can be used as a sign to the browser to be either fully standards compliant or backwards-compatible. Of course, the browser needs to implement the features.
What's the point of a DOCTYPE, then, if not to tell the browser how to interpret the page? They don't have to break backwards compatability, they merely have to support standards when the page asks for them - with a PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtm l1-strict.dtd ">.
Shouldn't it be obvious how it stacks up against your P3? What would be the point of such a comparison - "Should I get a P3 866 or a P4 3600?" Some thing with the GF3 and Radeon 9600.
Quantitative comparisons between components with such disparate performances are pretty much meaningless - "I'll wait until a new graphics card has exactly 2.5 times the performance of my old to get it." With such new features as Pixel Shader 3.0 coming (even though games may not support it yet), the quality of the picture is also different. You can't quantify that.
A major use of these reviews is letting people discover how much more performance they would gain by paying the extra money for the top-of-the-line components as opposed to second or third best. Comparison to anything too low would be meaningless and pointless; it would just take up space.
A potential buyer should already have narrowed down what they were considering by that they look at reviews. The reviews for old cards/chips/etc. would help them decide what to get if they want the middle or low range, and if they want the high range they pick the new reviews.
How could a reworked queue system reduce the length of the queue? If there are only so many download slots, so many people who want to download, and such a length of time to download a file, what could change the length of the queue?
Luckily, Spyware programs are indiscriminate on which computers they install. Claria (Gator) and other companies might soon be destroyed by this law, which would fix the problem.
Of course, they made their own in house changes and improvements ("GOLEM" animation system, and a much improved particle system), but technically its UT2003 based. Do these changes (and ones from other developers) ever get folded back into the main engine?
On the other hand, the classification problem for finite simple groups has been rigorously solved, but the collected proof (done in bits by hundreds of mathematicians working over 30 years) is tens of thousands of pages in many different journals. given the standards of review, it is a virtual certainty that there is an error somewhere in there that hasn't been found. So, again, the solution to this problem is *probably* right, but it has been accepted as solved.
Wouldn't this be a good use for the computer, then - attempting to verify these disjointed proofs and combine them into one unified whole?

I've heard of "Jovian," but never "Zeusian."

Not quite. That didn't get to orbit, only to suborbital velocities. While it is a big achievement, they have to go much, much faster to get to orbit.

Is a spell checker bloat, or is it merely a sign of bloat?
From what I've heard, 4.x should be a complete rewrite with a less restrictive license.

Just use Forward Error Correction....
Do you trust Google that much?
Doesn't Apple makes its own chipsets? Dell has Intel (or AMD) make both the chipsets and CPUs. Apple actually has more involvement in that regard.
Yeap, they do get pretty angry when people tell drivers to follow the law.

Is Ceres the fifth planet from the sun, then? It is shaped into a (rough?) sphere by gravity.
