Lawyers aren't afraid at all to use the phone: If a tapped conversation between them and their client turns up later in court, their client usually walks.
Why does everyone act like it's perfectly normal for companies to act in a completely anti-social manner? I think most people wouldn't accept that from their neighbours and that anti-social actions by companies is hurting our world more than ever.
The future is not in the type of market fundamentalism that we see around us so much. The future is in every part of our society acting somewhat responsibly. IBM is further along that curve than most companies.
This is a good thing, no need to be super-cynical about it.
While the Apple II we had in school was a hot piece of hardware back in the days, I would hate to have to use it to run Photoshop and do Unsharp Mask on some of my 200 MB scans...
The article is a little skimpy on details, but pushing the ethenol through a 700 degree catalyst can't come for free...
No mention on what the catalyst is, how long it lasts and how much energy is needed to produce it...
Anyway, if it improves the energy budget of ordinary ethanol, that's good. But ordinary ethanol takes so much more energy to create than it ever produces when you burn it, that I'm not easily convinced that this will actually make using ethanol a thermodynamically sound proposal. Politically it'll probably work just fine though:(
Please tell me how you will plow your farm, plant your corn, harvest it, process it and transport it to the ethanol plant, what you'll make your fertilizer from and how you'll get your ethanol to your hydrogen plant all without using any fossil fuels...
Or even with fossil fuels, in such a way that it makes sense to do at all...
The real story with digital is that medium format is dead.
Is that so?
Then why am I looking at identical photo's, taken seconds from one another, one with a Hasselblad on Fuji NPC and one with Nikon's D100, and see that there is absolutely no comparison?
Have you ever actually used a Hasselblad or a good digital camera before?

Painlessly and daylight saving time in one sentence?

The real war was Soviet Union - Germany.
The whole Britain-America-Canada thing was mostly an irrelevant sideshow...
Brilliant!
The mirror would bounce back all the light coming from Earth into the satellite's lens!
Uhm. Wait a minute...
It depends how and from what you make your ethanol. And how you farm your feedstock of course...

Check the pics in this review.
No matter that it's ceramic, the lens is still crap...
What will it take before we see a smallish digicam with a decent lens???
The Nikon D2H and D2X already support this out of the box...

I didn't know he was Vietnamese...

Comes for free? Are you feeling allright?
Have you even ever seen a farm? Try telling he gets his produce for free, from the SUN, see how far you fly after he kicks you off his land...
Doesn't matter, at least there's one more enlightened soul around now!
So which part of "it takes more energy to produce a gallon of ethanol than you get by burning it" don't you understand?
Or will you just legislate the Laws of Thermodynamics away?
I hate to burst your bubble, but the 10% or so ethanol that's in your gas costs a hell of a lot more oil to produce than it saves...
Best thing to do for saving oil is to start using normal fuel as quickly as possible.

It's got Americans in it, of course...
Hence the four-way-stop intersection, and now this...
