I heard that Greg dreamed last night about Randi, Dawkins, Myers & Alan Moore forming a barbershop quartet. After he woke —screaming & drenched in sweat— he realized he never learned the name of the group. Suggestions?
- Future Imperfect: we do really need to polish our rules of etiquette concerning time travelers. Dan Rather might disagree, though.
- WWII claims its three latest victims.
- Robert Boyle: the 17th century chemist who foresaw our hi-tech future. Inadequate venting at the ole Boyle lab, I presume?
- Detecting cancer before it starts, with a simple blood test —Mr. Boyle would be most pleased.
- Einstein’s idea of a horror flick: how to see quantum entanglement —with your own eyes!
- Why teenagers can’t concentrate during class: too much grey matter in their brains. Thank God there’s a natural solution for that :}
- Memory Engineering: cleansing our minds of vice & crime —& the occasional manic girlfriend.
- Would the *real* Indy please stand up? In case anyone ask, we Grailers give our vote to Sean Kingsley.
- 44 years later, Clayton South residents remember the day they saw UFOs. Click here to check the documentary web page [Now trailer clip available yet].
- To all you conspiracy-lovers: Princess Di was killed for ‘planning to expose senior Brits involved in the land mine trade’ —and the senior Brits also happened to be baby-killing shape-shifting Reptoids from Alpha Draconis; imagine the odds of that!
- Blast from the past: Experimental scramjet sets record by flying at Mach 6 [Mind you: this is the one they are letting you know it exists].
- Video: an astronaut’s eye-view of Mars. Don’t you wish you were there, surveying the alien landscape?
- On second thought, Mars is for pussies! How to plan a human mission to the outer Solar System.
- Rise of the Replicators. Call me prejudist, but IMO anything involving (a) robots; & (b) the suffix “or”, should be avoided like the Plague.
- Part-human, part-machine transistor devised —See?? Beware of the ‘ors’!
- Cool photo gallery: the tomb of ancient Chinese general Cao Xiu.
- From YOUR side of the family: Ardi may be more ape than human.
- After the dwarf’s resignation, the hobbit might have to step in to save Middle Earth —as usual.
- Federal officials consult with James Cameron —Srsly!— in hope of solving the Gulf spill. His solution: let’s all pack up & move to Pandora.
- …Because we ALL know what Michael Bay’s solution would be like! I think I go for James’ plan on this one.
Thanks Greg, Rick, Kat & SpongeBob.
Quote of the Day.
“When we have mastered the false memory recipes, we will need to worry about who controls them. What brakes should be imposed on police, lawyers, advertisers? More than ever, we’ll need to constantly keep in mind that memory, like liberty, is a fragile thing.”
