Hydrogen is acquired mainly in two ways. You either extract it from hydrocarbons and result in a lot of carbons going into the air, or you split water which requires a lot of electricity which results in more coal-burning plants. That completely removes all the benefits of the "clean" fuel.
Then add in that hyrdogen leaks a lot and turns steel into brittle.
Why in the hell does anyone think this is a GOOD idea for cars? There has to be some company lined up to benefit huge from this, because it makes no logical sense.

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- id Software(TM) and Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) will unleash an all-new assault on humanity with DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil(TM), the official expansion pack to the fastest selling PC first- person action game ever in the U.S., according to NPD Techworld. Co-developed by Nerve Software and id Software, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil continues the terrifying and intense action of the already classic DOOM 3, which Maxim and Computer Gaming World awarded "five out of five stars" and the Associated Press called "one of the scariest games ever made." Through the discovery of a timeless and evil artifact you now hold the powers of Hell in your hands, and the demons have come to hunt you
down and take it back. Following the events of DOOM 3 and featuring new locations, characters and weapons, including the return of the double-barreled shotgun, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil expands the terrifying action that fans and critics have been raving about. The title will require the full retail
version of DOOM 3, and has not yet been rated by the ESRB.

I just picked up a used copy of the Akira Special Edition (complete in "1337er than thou" tin case). This is a far better anime than I remember, so I'm a happy undead abomination.
But I was wondering if anybody else has a favorite UberGeek DVD edition? Other than the LotR extended editions of course.

I can't believe it really worked. It had been in "Sent to Vendor" since early September. What a great way to start the week. Unfortunately, I promised this one to my girlfriend, and I'm stuck with my scratch up 3G. We'll have to work something out in terms of oral pleasure.

heh, Ashlee Simpson is getting hammered on her own site :)
You're a no talent-ass clown. Do the world a favor and go back to living in the dark shadows of your sister. You're about as punk rock as that lame store Hot Topic. Hopefully you will have a different sound guy to make sure that your lip synching starts on cue this time.
All of you idiots who support her--you're the real problem. You'll buy anything that your feeble minds are exposed to via MTV, and all the other lame avenues of music television programs. Live music isn't watching some show on television. The generations of today's youth can all be bought and fooled with with a strong marketing campaign. So sad.

{{/
def GetFolderList(folder):
folderList = []
for folderPath in glob.glob(folder+"\\*\\"):
folderList.extend(GetFolderList(folderPath))
return folderList
/}}
if i add a "print folderPath" line in the for loop i get the exact results i'm looking for. Maybe i'm misunderstanding how extend works? btw this is python. the glob.glob shit just returns a list of subdirectories.

It seems my CD burner can't finalize a disk. No matter what program I use, no matter what I try to burn (whether it be an audio CD, a data CD, an ISO, whatever) nothing will finalize. The program I use to burn will either hang or come back with an error after trying to finalize for about 5 minutes. I've used all kinds of different media, changed IDE cables, no change. I can still use the CD-RW to read regular and burnt disks but no burny.
Help?

"Unauthorized duplication is encouraged. Thanks for sharing." THAT FUCKING ROCKS!!!
