it actually looks like a toe - Jean-Claude Bradley

Jean-Claude... you mean, you are getting the data rescued already? - Egon Willighagen

"...once any area becomes an information technology, it starts conforming to the exponential curves of Moore’s Law..." - Andrew Lang

great post - if we can figure out a way to automate the execution of the DoSol sheet it should go exponential - that is our bottleneck right now - Jean-Claude Bradley

Didn't know about this part of the story "But it was another PRL reviewer’s rebuke that opened Leonhardt’s eyes wide. It said he was not alone. The assessment, routinely shared with Leonhardt, indicated that the reviewer had been to two meetings in the previous months “in which John Pendry discussed his group’s efforts on the same issue, calling it a cloaking device or their Hogwarts project in reference to the cloak of invisibility associated with the Harry Potter series.” Pendry and his colleagues, the assessment added, “supposedly have filed a patent related to this work.” Hence, the anonymous reviewer declared, the work was not new and did not merit publication in PRL." - Andrew Lang

Cool visualization. - Andrew Lang

let the remixing never end - Jean-Claude Bradley

so where do you put the recent Star Trek movie? I know you had some problems with the physics :) - Jean-Claude Bradley

yes, but it was overall much better than the Star Wars Holiday Special. I'm glad they didn't broadcast it in the UK or my life may have gone in a different direction. - Andrew Lang

is the latest version available through xstreet or only drexel island? - Mike Chelen

'Hiro's molecule rezzer' is stable and is on xstreet. Orac is perpetual beta and is available from Hiro (er... me). - Andrew Lang

The mobile browser works just fine for most needs. - Andrew Lang

@Andrew - It is disappointing. I do get why, but I'm not sure £30 is the price point that's going to maximise their return. Especially given the pretty rigorous environment of the App Store (and the fact a free version of essentially the same tool is sitting behind the icon labelled 'Safari'). Charge £2.99, sell 20x as many copies... (http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...) - Simon Cockell

I helped some of my students enter some data. - Andrew Lang

Iapetus' two-tone appearance has a possible explanation. "... like bugs on a windshield." - Andrew Lang

A bit of a cross between the previous stargate series and battlestar galactica. I prefer with a bit more of comedy but it was a nice start. - Pedro Beltrao

I think the life-support turned on when the gate connected - at least the lights did. It was a little formulaic though wasn't it. - Andrew Lang

too funny - Andrew Lang

Still not an excuse for students. - Andrew Lang

that's great Andy! - Jean-Claude Bradley

This is my student. Any librarians (or anyone else) out there have ideas for manuscripts? - Andrew Lang
