    Nothing was taken, standing in somone elses property is not stealing just trespassing thats the very most this could be as nothing was unlocked broken or taken.

    It will sure as hell give you an idea how to monitor the work though. Most slackers do their job when being watched by the boss, once you know what the employee ius supposed to do you can get a better idea of how to measure productivity. A position like IT tech is pretty vague so its reasonable that the boss may not know exactly what the employee is supposed to be doing. So yea the boss shadowing the employee is an excellent idea. But just saying key logging is an objective tool to measure productivity is bull shit. Work completed is a much more accurate measure but even then not objective or precise. If a comp needs a fresh install of the os and another needs to be replaced and another just needs to have an update well those are three jobs that require different amounts of time and attention. With the IT tech title as long the ops were running smooth and the sys admins and other employees were stisfied with theyre comps and servers then the guy was running at the maximum productivity... nuff said!

    The earth will not be habitable in a billion years, around 500 million before the the sun wipes us out. At our current rate of cunsumtion the earth may not be habitable in 300 years we need the resources in space and we need to be able to leave our solar system if our species is to survive, health care, war, and famine will not wipe out our species heck even nuclear war wont wipe us out totally but a big rock a flare or any number of other things will kill everything on earth look at the extiction timelines we have one due!

    The raw resources of the moon are unknown but the resources of the solar system even our nearby solarsystem are tremendous. once we hit the astroid belt past mars we will be well on our way into hundreds of thousands of tons of very valuable resources. once we get the cost down to a reasonable level people will be able to live outside earth, this is going to be the most important i believe in the next 100 years. We need to free ourselves of the space constraints and that means getting off this rock and moving to new rocks.

    "I advocate developing space travel technology as well as building bases on Mars, but the Moon? really, we went there in the 60's and 70's, saw that there was nothing too worthhile there, and left. I just don't see the point. Maybe someone could explain to me what we could benfit from." We still dont even know if there is water on the moon. How can we say we [b]saw[/b] there was nothing worthwhile there?

    Use earth to supply the parts to the moon but actually buidling the ships on the moon is the best plan. without the harsh atmosphere and gravity of earth you can build much more space worthy spacecraft. Right now we cant try solar sails realisticly because the second you launched the from earth they would be destroyed. But you could build them on the moon and actually launch them to get to mars and beyond

    the first xrays were not very ingenious either this is the birth of a new system and the effects though not immediately apparent will be as profound. unlike the CSI tech stuff in half the shows this will be a cheap low budget way that police truly will be able to use, and im sure will use on a constant basis. After the tech matures a bit.
