  4. Re:Right...just change the "acceptable level"! on The Panic Over Fukushima · · Score: 1

    If you read the article and look at the chart it contains, you'll see that they mean 0.1 rem/yr, though they should have given those units in the text as well.

  5. Re:They've figured out how to not get burnt on Scientists Set Bold Plan For Future Exploration of the Sun · · Score: 1

  11. Re:"We have to expect this sort of thing"... on NASA Morpheus Lander Test Ends In Explosion · · Score: 1

    OT, but thanks for putting that in your sig. One of the cool things about /. is learning about things like that as I read. I found out about Lilypond here and who knows what else.

  12. got a link to his flickr account? on Flickr Photo Leads To New Insect Discovery · · Score: 1

    could not find searching his name or green lacewing...

  13. Re:Since when on New State-Sponsored Malware "Gauss" Making the Rounds · · Score: 1

    well, the news is always skewed, so I guess Gaussian would be a big deal.

  20. In other news on Goodbye, IQ Tests: Brain Imaging Predicts Intelligence Levels · · Score: 1

    Correlation of headline and story strongly inversely correlates with the headine writer's intelligence.

  21. Re:Field Distortion on Internet Billionaire Creates Huge Physics Prize · · Score: 1

    But it would be a 'red hole' instead of a 'black hole' since red represents financial loss.
    What would be analogous to the Hawking radiation? Little dividends?

  22. Re:But ... on The World's First 3D-Printed Gun · · Score: 1

    I don't even remember rounded rectangles in ninth grade geometry class. Maybe I missed that day.
