  1. Re:Congestion on The 10-Year Satellite Forecast · · Score: 1

    Geosynchronous isn't the same as geostationary. Geosynchronous just means the satellite passes over the same points on the earth at regular intervals, which includes satellites that orbit over the poles. Geostationary is when the satellite remains "stationary" with regards to a point on the surface of the planet.

  2. Re:Together on Nationwide Domain Name/Yard Sign Conspiracy · · Score: 1

    just faxed them my commute map and they introduced me to a gal who became my wife two years later. It helped greatly that her apartment was halfway home on my commute.

    Now that is what I call true love. Seriously why hasn't someone made this into a romantic comedy about a dude who really needs to use the HOV to get to work and back? Maybe he needs to pick up his plucky yet adorable 5 year old(from a previous marriage) from daycare before it closes. And if he's late one more time his evil ex will take full custody. But somewhere along the way he finds love. The kid doesn't like the new girl and tries to sabotage the relationship. The ex gets frustrated and sabotages the new relationship making him late to pick up the kid, but the boy finally realizes that daddy's happy with his new girl and makes an impassioned plea to the ex about why he needs to have his father in his life, and why his father needs his HOV lover. Honestly someone call Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. They haven't made a movie in a while. I'd love to take credit for that brilliant script idea, but true love just sorta writes itself...Fade to Black...

  3. Still no real solution on Turned Off iPhone Gets $4800 Bill from AT&T · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I've seen a lot of people talking about airplane mode or how to turn the phone off, but how about if you just want to leave the phone on to receive emergency phone calls, but not rack up huge data charges? What's the accepted method of doing that?
