What's Einstein got to do with it? The ether theory was disproven by the Michelson-Morley experiment. Einstein was 8 years old at that time - still doing poorly in grade school.
I agree. What's this about IE having fishing website detection? Does that mean finding keywords like trout, bass, salmon, steelhead, sinker, lure, etc.?
If inappropriate (down-)moderation is censorship , then appropriate (down-)moderation must be censorship, too. Otherwise, you're saying that it's OK to suppress speech, as long as it's stupid, incendiary, etc.

I (OP) live in Oregon, but I've not experienced any strong quakes here, just a couple of 4 point somethings.
I was about 3 years old when a strong earthquake hit So. California where I lived and I remember it. OK, I just looked it up 'cuz I was thinking it was 1969 but it was actually 1971, so I was four -- it was a 6.6. I lived in No. Hollywood. I liked this sentence about that quake: "The newly built, earthquake-resistant buildings at the Olive View Hospital in Sylmar were destroyed - four five-story wings pulled away from the main building and three stair towers toppled." Probably that sentence is one of those occasions where you could put "earthquake-resistant" in quotes, huh?
I didn't think 5.2 was of NO significance but I thought it not a big one. I guess it is on the low end of being a big one.
I was interested by the map someone linked to a couple of posts up showing the difference in geographic range between two essentially equally intense quakes, in in So. Calif. and one at New Madrid. I wanted to mod that interesting, but I'd already commented.
Graphite's just carbon too. Graphene is just a single sheet (1 atom thick) of graphite, or graphite is a bunch of graphene layers stacked on top of one another.
Yup, as long as "about 10" means 11. (I tried drawing it with ASCII but the lameness filter didn't like it)
And aromatic carbon rings (rings containing conjugated double bonds) are generally 6 carbons (benzene structure) but 5 and greater are possible. Cycloalkanes (carbon rings with no double bonds) can be anywhere from 3 carbons up, but they're not interesting for electronics (and 3 and 4 carbon rings are not very stable due to the large angle strain of the bonds).
I have a Thinkpad T43 that had to have its main board replaced. I sent it out, they got it the next day, replaced the board and sent it back the same day, so I was without it for only about 48hours.
I kinda wished it hadn't had that three year warranty, though. Then I could've gotten a new one instead of just fixing it.
Having tried roasting a small batch of coffee beans myself, and doing the attendant research prior to doing so that any engineer would do, I understand that coffee just roasted doesn't taste as good as coffee roasted yesterday. It needs time to outgas some volatile compounds, not dangerous, just bad tasting. I suppose you could draw a vacuum to speed up the process, but it might be excessively complicated and still take too long. I'm not sure.

Yes, before it happened.
But he made commercials promising it would work AFTER it had failed.
I'd say that was more De Broglie, Dirac, Pauli, Bohr, et al than Einstein.

Probably it should be TETRIS.

Blaming someone who provided information rather than blaming those who did the jailing, beating, etc. might be a small part of it.
I don't know, I'm pretty sure they have Toyotas there.
Don't blame her, blame the Nixon administration EPA. Of course, malaria was never a big issue in the US.

That's the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Thanks.
Raman? I prefer FTIR. Raman leaves me hungry an hour later.
and, yes, I know the principle of smaller government is a conservative one, not a liberal one (at least in the modern definitions of those terms).
Fixed that for you, as they say. IOW, it's an oxymoron. Democrat or Republican.
Kind of like "A Boy Named Sue", huh?
Johnny Cash FTW.
Guess they couldn't feel it comin' in the air last night...
You also forgot to include a car in your analogy. Mandatory for all analogies at /.

is it? Why the fuss? Was it not 5.2?

How about zero? It's a number too!

What, they should have used Rankine?
