I got a heavey dope vibe from him too. As far as a directors cut...I am all for it...i'd rather see the film the way it was origionally intended not the way some focus group or marketing droid said it should be. The perfect example of "censors" screwing up a movie is Natural Born Killers...that movie was totally taken out of its origional context by the editors...check out the directors cut.
I picked up on that too...happend in several scenes and it kind of annoyed me because it was too noticable. Other then that...pretty good flick.
My opinion is...sometime the situation just call for a "fuck" or "holy shit"....you see a giant mechanized cow flying over your house with lasers shooting from the udders...holy crap just doesn't cut it.
Just write a script that telnets into rainmaker.wunderground.com and enters the 3 digit code for your area and dump the info to a file for posting on your site. No copyright issues cus thats what it's there for.
Even if there was an open stadards for IMS you'd still have what I like to call creaping featurism or MS calls embrace and extend.
The problem is that MS, AT&T, AOL, or Joe's Bait Shot FishBuddies IM don't really care if their users can talk to users on a "competing" system. They want people using their app on the desktop...once everyone is using your app you own the standard and lets face it once their is a standard on the desktop it just allows one more conduit to shove advertising down our throats.
There is no such thing as a free internet service so we will be paying one way or the other.
Right now we have a choice on what IM platform we use...If most of our friends are on ICQ we will use ICQ if not we won't it's that simple...IMHO an IM standard will only hurt us in the long run...When have you known AOL, MS, AT&T or any other $$$$ grubbing corporation to look out for your best interests? Never? So why trust them to do it now.
Talk to who you want use whatever system you want....it's your right.
If some company is beaming their broadcasts into my house without my permission why can't I look at it? Afterall it could be mind control rays from the Montauk project.
Who gave the goverment the right to sell the airwaves inside my house to some giant corporations?
If you don't want me to look at it don't beam it at me. And just because I have banks of Rockwell International 95 ELF/VLF/HF/VHF/UHF Receivers in my bunker don't call me paranoid....someone has to watch the watchers.
By memorandum of October 24, 1952, President Truman established the National Security Agency (NSA) as the organization within the U.S. Government responsible for communications intelligence (COMINT) activities.

Actually, it was meant to be serious (except for the flying monkey part....they forced me to say that). Why shouldn't the net have its own government beyond that of corporate interests and fear mongering politikos? As the net becomes more ubiquitous there will be more and more legislation...every country in the world will be legislating how their citizens can access and use the net...add to that all the special interest groups throwing their confusion into the mix and let's not forget all the thunk tanks and market research firms trying to predict the next big tech breakthrough i'm sure they'll want their say too...
Nothing prevents us from establishing an Internet based goverment. I also believe that a 1% voluntary tax would be enough to get the government started.
In order to regain control of the Internet I have ordered my army of flying spider monkeys to seize control of several key traffic centers.
During this period of transition to our new government I have been appointed as interim king of the Internet. As such I am implementing a few new procedures in order to make this transition as easy as possible:
1. There will be a new closed domain (.perv) where like-minded people can play by themselves.
2. There will be a voluntary 1% tax on all Internet sales in order to fund our new government.
3. The implementation of an Internet review board to review physical non-Internet aligned governmental policies toward our world with the power to banish them from our domain after a full review process.
4. The Scheduled date for the internet constitutional congress will be January 15, 2000 if you are interested in attending or would like to nominate someone as a representative please contact my office at king_internet@hotmail.com
As with any such transition there is bound to be rumors floating about as to our ultimate goals. So please bear with us through this trying time as we establish the first government truly representative of its citizens.
If you have any questions or comments about this transition please contact me directly at king_internet@hotmail.com
Major General Wang Pufeng is a former Director of the Strategy Department, Academy of Military Science,THE CHALLENGE OF INFORMATION WARFARE China Military Science (Spring 1995).
EXCERPT
In wars of the future, China will face the enemy's more complete information technology with incomplete information technology. Because sometimes superior tactics can make up for inferior technology, China will still carry out its traditional warfare method of "you fight your way, I'll fight my way," and use its strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses and adhere to an active role in warfare. To do this, it appears that we must pay even more attention to:
Fully utilizing the advantages of national territory and front information facilities to carry out reconnaissance on the enemy's situation and protect ourselves and attack the enemy
Developing, improving, and utilizing China's information weapons in a concentrated way to carry out raids on enemy operation platforms and bases and damage and foil the enemy's offensive
Emphasizing mobile war in the context of information warfare
Conscientiously organizing sabotage operations by the Army, Navy, and Air Force, grasp exploitable opportunities, and make continuous raids to exhaust and wear down the enemy
Organizing specialized combined special warfare troops and equip these with information technology weapons to carry out powerful special warfare.
In summary, our warfare methods must adapt to the needs of information warfare. We must use all types, forms, and methods of force, and especially make more use of nonlinear warfare and many types of information warfare methods which combine native and Western elements to use our strengths in order to attack the enemy's weaknesses, avoid being reactive, and strive for being active. In this way, it will be entirely possible for China to achieve comprehensive victory over the enemy even under the conditions of inferiority in information technology.

Computer virus warfare. Sharven [as translated] claims that: While the major 20th century weapons were tanks, the key 21st century weapon will be the computer. In future wars, operations against military computers will become a key type of information warfare. That will mean computer virus warfare. Computer viruses are special software programs that can alter or destroy a computer's normal operating programs. They are characterized by detection difficulty, rapid contagion, longstanding latency, and active and continuous encroachment, and can severely disrupt the C3I system, smart weapons, and combat potential. Some countries are now considering the organization and establishment of computer virus warfare platoons.

Wei Jincheng excerpted from the Military Forum column, Liberation Army Daily, June 25, 1996.
In short, the meaning and implications of a people's war have profoundly changed in the information age, and the chance of people taking the initiative and randomly participating in the war has increased. The ethnic signature and geographic mark on an information war are more pronounced and the application of strategies is more secretive and unpredictable.
Information-based confrontations will aim at reaching tangible peace through intangible war, maintaining the peace of hardware through software confrontations, and deterring and blackmailing the enemy with dominance in the possession of information. The bloody type of war will increasingly be replaced by contention for, and confrontations of, information.
The concept of people's war of the old days is bound to continue to be enriched, improved, and updated in the information age to take on a new form. We believe any wise military expert would come to the same conclusion.

My elite research squad has dicovered the true use behind the Microsoft Touch Mouse know internally as the Microsoft Mood Mouse (MMM).
The described technology on the Microsoft Research page is said to monitor capacitance over the surface of the mouse to gauge when a user touches it...this in fact is true. But, what is not revealed in the page is that the the surface of the mouse also measures galvanic skin responses.
Imagine being able to judge a users mood as they email tech support, fill out online surveys, or gauge a users response to e-commerce sites.

"(the right-shaped blur in the right place at the right time), and there have been some rumors about extremely-long-focal-length sats able to read license plates. (Hell, I heard somebody brag once about being able to read the Titleist logo and count the dimples on a golf ball, but that's millimeter resolution -- that doesn't seem likely.)" Marketing Snippet about the Keyhole 12-B aka IMPROVED CRYSTAL
"The IMPROVED CRYSTAL's sophisticated electronics provides sharper images than the KH-11, comparable in quality to the best of the film return satellites, with a resolution approaching ten centimeters. A periscope-like rotating mirror reflects images onto the primary mirror, enabling the KH-12 to take pictures at very high angles of obliquity, imaging objects hundreds of kilometers away from its flight path."
Last known launch: KH-12/3 was launched on 20 December 1996 by a Titan-4 from Vandenberg.
