@germclown: Sex in zero-g sounds... messy. But if you act quickly, you can become the ringleader of a whole new type of fetish on the net and be able to afford your own LaGrange mansion. :)

@Dr. What?: Hooray for Space Miners! Yes, I agree, go find rare metals. If we can get enough gold from the rocks out there, and some silver, platinum, and more, well... we'll be set!

What is the Disney motto according to the Simpsons? "Sorry, but there's profit to be had" or something like that?

@Chris Braak: I take it there's no way to really get after the company about it? :( I'd find out where they're located and make friends with someone from the local power company. ;) Apart from that, file complaints, fine other users with the same issue, and make a fuss. And I hope it does arrive soon, or that someone…

@neolex: Well, I suppose that for Americans, with 300 million people, it's not so easy to find a suitable store nearby. The Internet has outpaced the well stocked comic shop, I guess.

So, we'll be seeing this on the next episode of Jackass? Or movie, or whatever they're doing these days? Survivable, sure, but I'd rather not try it unless certain death was on the other side of the airlock already.

@Chris Braak: Someone picked one up for me from England. It's easy to find there, on store shelves, so for anyone else, I'd say, find someone flying from England to wherever you are and say "if I wire/paypal/somehow get you the money, and you nab me one?"

@teledingo:

@Howard Blair: Oh I want to be full of sarcasm right now!

I love articles like this, but in some ways it just makes me think of Connections with James Burke. I mean, one bit of climate change, one new invention, an increase in population, a new invention to handle that, another change in climate the other way so a new invention, and so on, and it's a lovely long line of…

I just want my own bit to follow me around, shape changing for Yes and No as needed. :) That was what I liked the best about Tron.

@SupaChupacabra: Yes, all five letters, but the real man is the complex one. But I think Drogo will be a much better chance to show some acting chops than being Conan ever will.

So once it's invented, can I trade up for the one that does more than entertain me with the sonic sounds and push button action? I do like the toy version, but other than looking silly and smiling while I wave it around...

@alexjmscott: Or use them to bolster the members of your own raging barbarian horde! :)

@edixoo: Ahhhrgh, typo! I feel much shame in my lack of proof reading, since normally I do a proof and edit of everything.

@GeorgeDW: Well the content is grim, yes, but the world is not all grey tones and cloudy days in the footage. People are haggard, sure, but not filthy for the sake of saying life is tough. That sort of grim, the visual grimness.

@Steel_wind: I'm relaxed, call, yes, even chill, but still, the chorus must keep singing, so we can show him that we're eager and value what he's doing. :)

@starjade: You did! He's Drogo, he's Conan, he was Ronan... Mr. two Syllable name action hero!

@BioLady: And a chorus of agreement did ring through the air, as the masses demanded the scribe to stop mucking about and finish the great work.

Gritty, but not grim. It looks as if it could exist, it could be real. See I always want to shout out that fiction, no matter how incredible the world, can still be built on something realistic.
