Will,
You mentioned that Earth Hour is March 31. It is March 29th according to the website.

Thanks Dave. Not sure where I got the 31st from.

I want one of those cowling desks from MotoArt. What a cool idea. My dad, the Air Force vet, would love it.

Re the Large Hadron Collider, scientists working on the A-bomb feared it could set the entire atmosphere on fire. In other news, scientists also thought any genetic material from the food we digest should be destroyed in the digestion process, so genetically modified foods should be safe (for this concern). Turns out not all of the genetic material is destroyed, so some of that crazy DNA could actually work its way into your stomach/intestine lining. It did in rats anyway.
What if the scientists who feared the atmosphere would burn up were right? Maybe because we can do a thing does not mean we should do a thing.

Will,

The Lost theory site, namely the theory itself, it garbage. Holes all over the place. The author has a thread about his site going on over at Lostpedia. If I find it again, I'll link it.

Maybe because we can conjure up fears of things that could, maybe, possibly, be a problem, but that we are not capable of fully understanding in the first place, does not mean we should...conjure up those fears, I mean.

Wonder what's new in other not-news.

"It may be time" to put some women on the robot tech think tank panel. Eeewww...I don't think I want something crawling up into my colon. Why hasn't someone already thought of a camera capsule that you can swallow like a pill--something round without moving parts that could perforate the colon? It could take videos of the colon as it passes through. I am sure they could develop a camera small enough and maybe with something like fly eyes that get a panoramic view (see here… http://www2.cnrs.fr/en/582.htm ). I was recently watching this video of the new concept video for Nokia's Morph phone ---my inspiration came from this "nano" technology...

Actually the problem would be how to keep the camera from getting digested by the acid in the stomach, but if they can make rockets that go into space then I think they can do this, too. I know those exams are important because my Mom’s mother died from colon cancer and my Mom has had non cancerous polyps removed, but until they improve this I’d rather pass those. Pun intended ;)

Yeah, I'm not at all sold on that LOST theory, either. It's just a mess. Although I don't have high expectations for whatever ultimate explanation the writers come up with, either.
