I don't mean to be rude, but did you read the article?

What if you drop an alka seltzer in a glass of vodka?

Fair point, the zero point is arbitrary, after all. The other side of that coin is that someone in Arizona would argue 100F is not oppressively hot at all.

Yeah, see this is what I mean by endless debate. But it's good, because we get to illustrate each side of the story.

Yes, I have. It regularly hits -20F where I live. But that's my point... if it's below zero, it's cold to the point that you need to start worrying about pipes freezing, frostbite, etc. Below freezing, e.g. below zero Celsius, is just not that cold in terms of environmental temperatures.

I like this version, but the updated tutorial doesn't do it for me. It's definitely a repeat listen, though.

That would be the Reality Distortion Field, or RDF.

I prefer the cat stand, although I will admit it can be a bit finicky and will try to chew on the corners of my ipad from time to time.

Excellent point. I was about to say that a lot of the misspelling and sentence structure problems are on purpose, at least at a subconscious level, as a way for the person to convey a certain informality to their writing.

Overclock that sucker.

I know what you're getting at with the LED TV stuff. I had a coworker actually sit there and tell me the screen tech was different and refused to believe it was just the backlighting.

The new iPad has voice dictation. They just left Siri off, because frankly, why do you need Siri on an iPad? The only time I ever use it is in the car, instead of typing.

Well put.
