    For a few days last week, hurricane Katrina was caused by an erect Male Penis.

    DYI=Do Yourself In.

    So...
    "Don't you think the very reason Lego is popular is because it allows people DYI in many ways?"
    Call em suicide blocks!

    "You can make robots, cranes, smart buildings and other things out of Lego and thats the reason the company is alive."
    Killer Robots, evil cranes. Maybe a doomsday weather machine.

    "However, the lower orbit moves faster and places tension on the cable, so the stresses have to be carefully considered other wise the cable will snap."

    I seem to recall that it did snap at one point.

  6. Re:Depends on the state on Aussie Speed Cameras in Doubt Because of MD5 · · Score: 1

    "Supposedly, the power comes from the people. It's not that the state would take it's power away, rather, it would be that the people have not yet conceeded that authority to it in the first place (by voting for, or electing people who vote for laws granting the state that power)."

    I don't know about Austraila but in most US states, lawmakers are mostly elected from districts which have bounderies that are drawn by the same lawmakers who make sure to draw (AKA: Gerrymander) them to include a strong majority of their supporters. There are some exceptions but for the most part, the legislators pick their voters not the other way around.

  7. Newborns could be marked on Secure Data Storage... On Your Fingernails · · Score: 1

    One possible application would be to etch the parents names on a newborns finger or toe nails just after birth. Could be a failsafe to keep from having a mixup.

  8. Re:MOD PARENT UP on IBM Shifts 14,000 Jobs to India · · Score: 1

    No- because I no longer shop there. Good for you. That's the point. If I felt that I was getting bad service from a company or that the product was inferior, I would shop elsewhere. I never felt that walmart was overpriced for what you got as much as the stores were clutterd and dirty.

    Price is ulitimatly what the consumer is willing to pay for a product. If the hypothetical WalMart you see is selling overpriced crap then they would go out of business or clean up their act when other retailers come to town. That's what I have seen in my town. Walmart almost drove Kmart away. Target has forced Walmart to clean up their stores now.
