I am referencing specifically Diablo canyon since it was mentioned in the article, but a lot of energy plants need huge water sources. This is either for emergency procedures or efficiency which makes them attractive to build pretty much an

On top of the problems outlined in the article... I don't understand how people in my state of California can sit easy with this concept knowing what happened to Japan/Fukashima just over a decade ago. What is the thinking that we

Just because a street runs parallel doesn't mean it will have all the same intersections or traffic flow as the main street. I don't specifically know the streets you're talking about from any personal experience or map, but

You have an excellent point about who is willing to moderate versus someone who is actually fit for the job. I feel the concept it lost on a lot of people and too many look at it as another webforum or social media. There is something to be

I agree. Frankly, if these become popular to the extent predicted in the article, I think pushing the privacy issue may potentially be the Glass' greatest potential accomplishment. That's a silver lining no matter how you see the

Pidgin/gaim fan here - thank you. I think I started using it just before the time of the name change and it's had an enormously positive impact on my life. That might sound silly but it was one of the few Linux programs I knew how

My roommate bought a Nest about 6 months ago and I haven't seen any real potential or usefulness out of it. It doesn't actually add functionality to my HVAC system, just more ways to complete what simple function my old thermostat

If displaying sponsored tiles within Firefox is to make any impact beyond sounding scandalous to it's user-base, it has already failed. Firefox is a program for people who actively avoid these things and custom tailor their web browsin

This game would be a lot more enjoyable with music that matched the theme. Impressive performance for flash.

You need more foods to choose from, but I suppose that's where the users come in. Very interesting app! I might sign up. Edit: Just found some of the features I had suggested, whoops.
