"Thermal radiation occurs at all wavelengths, including the visible range. Intensity depends in general on temperature and wavelength. The article does not explain what intensity of visible light one would expect, for instance from a black body of human dimensions and temperature. It does not even say what the measured intensity was, or how far the flux measurement was made from the person. This article contains almost no information at all." - Anton Kast

"This is apparently a real transcript of a call to an Israeli phone number for Palestinian turncoats. You'd think it's just a crank call, and in the middle it is. But the beginning is interesting, to hear how Israeli intelligence would try to draw someone in; and the end (after it degenerates into an argument) is interesting to hear the Israeli agent's point of view." - Anton Kast

"Would a net cause fewer people to jump (because it's less effective) or more (because it's safe)?" - Anton Kast

"I tried this (under Parallels), and while I think there may be some interesting ideas here, I must characterize the implementation as crappy. It's a bunch of docked frames like an IDE; one of them is streaming OpenGL errors at me; another is packed with meaningless egghead sliders; and the graphic component itself, which I couldn't interact with because it misinterprets all my drag gestures. I hope these guys come back with something polished." - Anton Kast

"Hey trammel: How accessible is Digg? You ought to know." - Anton Kast

"This is not skeptical inquiry. It's innuendo. There surely are many connections among social web sites, their board members, and government agencies. What should I make of that? I'm not sure." - Anton Kast

"What if a hurricane knocks you down the stairs? Or tornado winds throw you from your motorcycle?" - Anton Kast

"From the article: "Discovering the Higgs would close a three-decade-long chapter in the history of physics." That says it all. This is not how new lines of scientific investigation are born; it is how they die." - Anton Kast
