  1. Re:Fire who? on Firefox Usage Climbing · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Actually, a good way to get Firefox out there to the common "Joe Ordinary" is to help them fix their computer. Give them a copy of Firefox, (and Thunderbird) and tell them what it is. I've cleaned up several computers in my time and always recommended that if they didn't want their browser to be clogged up with 20-odd search toolbars (shudder) then they should really consider using this browser. All the folks I've helped out are now Firefox supporters...

    So spread the word . . . help out your friends.

    I don't know about re-entry, but how would that camera survive the impact of hitting the water? It still was giving back a beutifully clear picture (more or less)

    When they emerged, the chickens were stronger and had larger bones and muscles, and greater endurance. In other words, they were superchickens.

  9. Re:Terri Schiavo... on Patient Revives After 19 Years By Rewiring Brain · · Score: 0

    Please let's not bring this up again...

    This case is much different. If you actually took some time to read the research behind this "phenom" you would know that this guy actually had *some* connections in his brain that could be repaired. People in a persistent vegetative state can't repair brain connections.

    I'd hate to think what you're searching for if you get those kinds of results.... Google has the single most refined search algorithm out there.
