Nope no cicadas in CA
- SteVe C
I don't think the ranges of any of the periodical cicada broods includes California. I think they're all in the east and midwest.

Oh, that is pretty neat! I don't think I'd heard (or heard of) cicadas until I moved to DC.
- Jennifer Dittrich
they are fiction!
- kendrak
They are all over southern Europe. Also enjoyed their "noise" when I lived in Florida. Actually kinda miss them here in CA ..

It looks like we do have cicada species, just not the long-period biblical plague-like ones http://essig.berkeley.edu/documen...

Oh, I need that. Finally a worthy upgrade to the Samsung Epic 4G on Sprint. The only thing that can make me give up the physical keyboard is a sufficiently large display, such as this. Also about the largest thing you can pocket.
- Adrian
Exactly my take as well. Being able to stretch your fingers around both sides (to hold it like a phone) is a primary form factor requirement, which the Note exactly does, pretty much to the limit.

Google vows to fight suit over mobile 'Wallet' - http://www.physorg.com/news...

Google on Friday rejected a charge that it swiped PayPal trade secrets to build its new mobile application that turns a smartphone into an electronic wallet. Within hours of the unveiling of "Google Wallet" on Thursday, eBay and PayPal filed a lawsuit charging the Internet giant tapped into the online financial transaction service's know-how for the mobile payments project.

The company that wouldn't give me an interview? The one whose exec was curt to me at an industry expo? 4 of their employees died in a test flight of their new jet today. Jet destroyed. Feeling so fly like a G6 EL OH EL.
Don't ever deny me anything. I will never forget.
- LANjackal
Not really funny.
- Jimminy
As I said, don't mess with me. I do not forget.
- LANjackal
Didn't mean it as a warning. But I do enjoy schadenfreude.
- LANjackal
Ha, so the real you is back.
- LANjackal
I'm sorry, but are you honestly celebrating the death of four innocent people because the company they happened to work for wouldn't give you an interview?
- Monique the crochet freak
You finna block me? Go head
- LANjackal
No they wouldn't. And I'm no longer interested in them anyway. My revenge, however, is complete. Thank you, Universe.
- LANjackal
So are you taking credit for killing 4 people, because that's kind of what it's starting to sound like.
- Jimminy
That's a ridiculous conclusion. I am celebrating a bad turn for people who rejected me as an act of the Universe. I had nothing to do with the event in question.
- LANjackal
Extremely offensive!
- Bo Stern
And you're making light of the fact that 4 people, who were otherwise innocents as far as you should be concerned, died. I'd be fine with this if they lost a prototype, but people's lives were lost, and they didn't do shit to you. Don't be a stupid fuck, and be a man, with some fucking respect.
- Jimminy
I admit my anger exceeds my capacity for rational thought right now. You do make a good point and are in fact correct.
