so waht is the significance of the second video? does that rule out 'the way the video was processed' as an explanation???

sounds like a smart tactic...

its obviously a ship monitoring earth hiding behind mercury. no doubt in my mind.

did you know halloween is the new christmas? People are beginning to spend huge amounts of money on halloween decorations.

totally loving the light locker concept. expensive though. Instead, Maybe I'll just paint a 2x4 same color as exterior of house and hang it up in front of lights in the off season...

honestly i think a lot of that has to do with the iphone. If something doesn't work, it can't be apple or the app's fault, it must be the network. Plus it brought a lot of people to 'the dark side' just for that device.

i'm going to bet that they need siri to gather and process data in order to continue improving, so they basically are pushing their beta out to help w/ the research. otherwise it is strange that they are pushing a beta product like its a full release.

props to google, invest now. logistics is the next big industry to see massive growth

yea, but it could be done. hell the fed could maybe make some money off it. maybe that's the way out of recession.

i'm not sure how you came to that conclusion...

unfortunately large scale infrastructure lends itself to monopolies. for instance, electric utilities and cable tv. electricity is essentially a fed backed natural monopoly. BUT you're right, if we could split up the function of the distribution and the business of selling / etc, then we could have a fed natural…

obviously verizon is going to pat the fcc on the back for this...

lol hearted

and which one is running down the block?

then you're a fool. ;)

isn't that everyone's dream when they still have 'math teachers'?

it all boils down to how you define 'market'. If you define 'market' as GSM market, then yes its pretty much a monopoly. But if you define 'market' as all cell phone carriers, it's more of an oligopoly. Which wouldn't change one bit if t-mo got acquired by att.

until it rebels

i dunno if i'd go that far, but in the immediate they need to try to get out of the exit fee, which will be a completely sunk cost and end up being way more expensive than infrastructure and upgrades. but if they win they can make more money faster than w/ infrastructure.

while that is true, i'm not sure that this will be cheaper to make and transport than 1/2 cup of rice. rice is cheap. this meat may have some benefits sure, but i have my doubts that it would be an economical solution so third world hunger.
