"Humans and all other organisms have a built-in feel for H2O."
So do FTIR spectrometers, TGAs, Karl Fischer titrators, and other instruments. You're obviously not a chemistry geek.
This is I think, the fewest comments I've ever seen on a/. story. I watched the Inkscape video, as it's the one application I'm familiar with, and I like it a lot. One question, though, is what exactly is being visualized? e.g. what does it mean when one person's name moves from SW to NE?
No, they just integrated the power it took to do the task over the time it took to do the task, to give a more useful number than a straight average might have done. 37W for 1000s (37000 J) is better than 30W for 2000s (60000 J), even though 30W is 37W.
The only instance of the word "spray" on the page you cited is:
9. What aspects confuse people most about this process:
a. People get confused and think this is a spray. It is not, the coating needs to be applied in a piece of equipment.
b. People seem to wonder a lot about the contacts and how they are sealed. The contacts are not, the surfaces are sealed. So, water can run in and out."
No. Israel is not the sole or even primary cause of the conflict but they are a great focus of the conflict. Israel is the best armed, and not from oil revenues, btw. And they need to be, being surrounded by nations who want them gone.
But cell phones transmit at the same frequency as the microwave oven - that's why his meter worked for both. So if the power is high enough, you can heat up your pizza pocket with it, or fry a few brain cells. Not saying a cell phone will do that, only that if your argument against it is limited to frequency, it's no good.
If all of the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide in the last few hundred years were due to deforestation, your rant might have some validity. As it is....
As ScienceTim points out below, the moon's orbital plane is *close to* the ecliptic, but the two are not the same. If it were, we'd have a solar eclipse every (lunar) month!
It may well, but 245 kg does not sound like half a ton. It's a little over a quarter of a ton (2000 lbs), and a little under a quarter of a tonne (1000 kg).
Depends on the kind of atheist they are: "strong atheist" - what you say is correct; "weak atheist" - no. Weak atheist is really agnostic, which no one seems to call themselves anymore.

Potassium Hydroxide?! The goal is to encrypt the disk, not destroy it!
Saying that 17.5% tax is a "small thing" is a good indication that they can rip you off without much of a fight.
I can get the Taco Bell dog to read my email?? Does that work with Lotus Notes?
I've been missing out!
Sorry, but I'll be busy cleaning the bathroom.
Better yet, imagine an obligatory Beowulf cluster of spell-checkers.

Nonsense. They're called charts. Sailors, divers, and others use them every day.
Ethiopia still uniquely uses a 13-month calendar, the last month being only 6 or 7 days, IIRC.
"13 months of Sunshine" as their tourism posters say.
Nah, we saved their asses from the grey goo Malaysian nanobots in WW6.

It ate my "less than" sign.
It should have read "30W is less than 37W".
No, they just integrated the power it took to do the task over the time it took to do the task, to give a more useful number than a straight average might have done. 37W for 1000s (37000 J) is better than 30W for 2000s (60000 J), even though 30W is 37W.
I agree. Some people enjoy games that do not depend solely on reaction time and hand-eye coordination, thank you very much.
No, and this is just more evidence that the real problem is that people just don't have enough maps.
No. Israel is not the sole or even primary cause of the conflict but they are a great focus of the conflict. Israel is the best armed, and not from oil revenues, btw. And they need to be, being surrounded by nations who want them gone.
Yeah, because we all know about the vast quantities of oil in Israel. Wait...

Yes, but heat flow != temperature.
"Yeah, one giardia bug is as bad as the 1000th, but I don't care."
Well, if you'd stop drinking from the toilet, you wouldn't have to care. Dogs with Slashdot accounts? I've seen it all.

Shoot electrons at it, but every now and then leave one out.
