@jblues: It must make some sort of financial sense for Hollywood to keep on churning out the same old banal crap. Otherwise they wouldnt keep doing it, right?

@Xagest: Well, lets not go too crazy. Metal detectorists are a conservative bunch and rollerblades are so impractical on the sand ;-)

@dapper_otter: I would have gone with personal savings buried in the back paddock so as to hide from the tax collectors; thieves; and roaming brigands.

@badhatharry: I would like to inspect it personally too. Just to be sure.

@Ioncloud9: would it? supply and demand. Putting a few thousand on the market all at once could reverse that.

@BionicleOyster: You dont have to follow the trend you know. You could be daring: wear jeans and trainers, use a backpack. Collect $500k.

@Doctor How: I like to think I'm a man, even if the wife keeps on asking me when the baby is due...

@wagedomain: It must get lonely under that bridge.

@Arken: Bah! Lies and propaganda from the old media industry! They want you to go back to their tree killing, real world warming, landfill filling, inferior product.

@Illundiel: or perhaps Westinghouse?

@Doctor How: factual descriptions aside, surely even Tesla would agree:

@virgil.ierubino: Of course not. His acting in that film was clearly wooden.

@Arken: Umm. Isn't CO2 good for plants?

@(Splat): not really. It's like BP sold you the car on credit and your loan repayments get bundled up in your monthly fuel bills.

@dennis636223: Yeah but I refuse to accept that the iPhone on ATT represents a market (type of product or service) all by itself. Consider it part of not being an Apple fanboy.

@Andy Neil: Not unless you paid for it. If she (or rather the people of the UK) paid for her airfare and accommodation, it doesn't count.

@Roscoe420: Nah they're just offended at all of the bloody Yanks ragging on BP all of the time.

I was enjoying this until I read: "Even more strange is watching the Moon's shadow [move] over the Earth's surface"

@dennis636223: I am no Apple fanboi, but 'Monopoly' doesn't describe the situation.

Meh. Talk to anyone that travels to China on business regularly and you will hear about flight delays due to military exercises.
