Covalently bonded molecules, such as water, use the quantitative prefix in front of both names. Hydrogen does not act as an alkali metal in this case. Also, compounds don't necessarily have one correct name, hydrogen hydroxide and hydroxic or hydroxylic acid are all acceptable, though rarely used.
Thanks, I may give that a shot. I had considered rooting it in order to overclock, but the battery life isn't the greatest already. I did disable Sense, and the phone did speed up a lot. Thank you for the tip.
The Eris is the most disappointing piece of electronic equipment I have ever purchased, and that includes a Dreamcast. It is absurdly slow to respond to input, even in simply dialing a phone number. I have experienced the 'silent bug' many times since the update to 2.1, and since the phone requires 2-3 minutes to boot, I can understand the bug being devastating in an emergency. I would switch back to my ancient Samsung flip phone if I could only find its charger.
I would think that since almost every stationary object we would want to connect to the internet also needs electricity, broadband over power line would be best suited for it. A router and firewall in your breaker panel could handle access to the outside world. I wonder how small and cheap a BPL NIC could be? It would have to be small for things like a light switch, to fit in standard wall boxes. I don't see cost as a huge factor in the light switch example, Lutron already sells plenty of 30 dollar programmable dimming switches, and a typical commercial-grade switch that is used everywhere except homes is about 10 dollars. Only in residential applications do we see 50 cent switches and receptacles.

Pi needs to sue Justin Beiber, it is obvious that the Beiber hairstyle is modeled after the Pi symbol.
Does this mean that there will be a new group of people calling for the use of "only all-natural, organic" buckyballs?
