Why would we burn Earth oil? If there's enough oil on Titan, and the Earth price is high enough, why not burn 9 barrels of Titan-oil to get one barrel to Earth intact?
Sounds like this is more a case of a community with relatively equal populations of several religions, but a few hundred Christians come to town one day just to vote, then leave again (having been invited by the local church)
I used to use mechanical pencil lead (0.5, if it matters) to short the contacts on a 12-volt lantern battery. Sometimes the lead would get really hot (melted through my plastic desk), sometimes it would glow, once it disappeared completely. I love graphite:-)
Just to add to the stats... My workplace (www.gestalt-llc.com) allows Linux (I'm running Fedora Core 6 fulltime at the moment). Our intranet site is IE-only, but that's what IEs4Linux and VirtualBox are for:-)
Outlook works just fine in a VM of Windows:-) Or in Crossover.
For Remote Desktop, I believe the rdesktop client runs on Macs; runs on Linux, anyway.
On top of that, the next iteration of OSX (5, i believe) is supposed to have built-in support to run Windows natively, no VM or WINE needed. Even with hardware 3D acceleration!
A "family protection amendment" has passed in (AFAIK) every state it's been put to a vote, with flying colors. What makes you think it "has no chance" of passing at a federal level, were it put to a general vote?
Maybe something in between would be appropriate. Instead of a full-fledge IDE or barebones vi/notepad, try a text editor with syntax highlighting (like TextPad or NotePad2). Helps with those easy things like unclosed braces, but leaves you to do the more in-depth debugging. Also gives line numbers (not so with notepad). I live on line numbers...
There's a small bit about this in my 1995 Popular Mechanics magazine... A tank that can tell when a projectile is incoming, and launches a panel of its armor to intercept 20-30 feet away from the tank.
Do any of you actually know what the lawsuit was about?
Dover had added a small sticker to the cover of their biology textbook, that said (approximately) this: "Evolution is under some debate. If you want to learn more, look at this other book, available in the school library."
THAT'S IT!
My understanding is that the lawsuit was specifically over the fact that introducing ID to the science classroom was a violation of the US Constitution "seperation of church and state" amendment.
The complete text of said amendment:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Did Congress order that sticker put on? No? Then how was it unconstitutional?
Donating to the ACLU would only work if the ACLU actually cared about liberties. The ACLU does far more to reduce liberties than it does to enhance/defend them.
I got an online diary (blog, I guess) at BloopDiary.com in January of 2003. After having "met" and talked to a certain girl on there for a few months, that fall we talked on the phone.
Long story short, she now lives in my town (In Missouri; she's from Pennsylvania), we've been together for over 2 years, engaged for more than 1, and will be getting married next December.
The important thing is to go online looking for FRIENDS, not dates. Make the right friends, and go from there.
I've got to put in a word for the best of blogs. BloopDiary is small, but it is by far the best-coded, best-designed webdiary site I've seen (beats the pants off Xanga or LiveJournal). Unfortunately, as it's run by about 3 people, logistics puts an 8000-user cap on it.

Then again, the reasoning for closed-book tests is usually that you won't have those books with you every time you need the info...

I used to find Slashdot delightful
But my feelings of late are more spiteful
My comments sarcastic

Keep modding to +5 (Insightful).

"Don't agree with or like abortion - fine - don't have one."
Don't agree with or like murder/rape/armed robbery/clubbing baby seals over the head - fine - don't do it.
In what way are these two statements different?
I'd almost believe it. The Dukes did go through over 300 Chargers in the course of the series.

Guy next to me at work has a Mac... I'm jealous.
Gotcha. Thanks.

The same thing that happened to parents and not schools being responsible for sex ed and religious indoctrination.

What does opposing/supporting infanticide have to do with scientific prowess?

'course, since most gamers are single, male nerds, it seems likely most of them have done no gene-passing
Hell, my fiancee's old Dell laptop with an 800 mhz p3, 256 mb ram, and 16 mb of integrated video ram looks great with the latest Mandriva.
