QUOTE (Ender @ 4 Dec 2009, 11:56 AM) QUOTE NASA finds new evidence for life on Mars By Emma Woollacott Friday, 27 November 2009 05:58 NASA is believed to have found strong evidence that there was once life on Mars. Scientists working on a meteorite discovered in 1984 told the Spaceflight Now website that mineral microstructures in the rock were the remains of magnetic bacteria. Back in 1996, NASA reported that it had found...

Awesome. Now I can sound really really smart to my son tonight!

QUOTE (Sonny @ 17 Dec 2009, 06:15 AM) Fantastic! My wife and I were just talking about this yesterday. For once I was the progressive and she the conservative. She expressed fears that it would take a decade of commercial flights to get all the bugs out like it did with the 747s when they first entered commercial use. I assured her that this is a new century and there will be plenty of testing before the first...

QUOTE (perfectsim @ 19 Dec 2009, 02:29 AM) I think the deal with the X-48B is that people on the wings would be flying at an angle whenever the pilots turned using roll and not just yaw controls. I mean, commercial airlines don't usually have huge rolls anyway (at least that is my guess), but whatever they do is enough to make customers on the wings sick and potentially make things dangerous if they aren't in their...

These photos and this front row info seat is ****ing awesome! Very cool, Destiny.

Oh yeah, I guess it was the G's that made the difference not the angles as they would all be the same. Or perhaps it was the 20 foot or more change in elevation every time a small roll was initiated. That would probably make me sick.

QUOTE (REVROSWELL @ 14 Dec 2009, 07:19 AM) Well, sadly it seems that this hopeful (for coma patients) display of horror is a near hoax. I think that the man is being used by his voice therapist for her 15 min of fame. How sick is that? ; {> Shouldn't it be the family sueing the therapist? What a shame.

Facilitated Communication has yet to be legit, and it won't be validated here either. The family may not want to recognize that yet, or ever.

well first of all, i'd like to apologize for being rude. this sort of thing gets under my skin and i should really take a deep breathe before i even consider responding. i really am so extremely happy that this story is a hoax. the idea of a person being kept alive in a paralyzed conscious state for 23 years is (and i am not exaggerating) the most horrific story i have ever heard. i cannot think of a single story in all of human history...
