everything that was wrong I don't think that's true. The real problems were: 1) It looked like a medical device--something for cripples. 2) It pretended to be a replacement for cars, but was in fact a replacement for walking and bicycli

It's because stuff isn't valuable anymore What are you basing this on? I can't think of anything to really determine the value of "stuff" except for price, and from what I've seen, stuff still has prices attached. Maybe a good stereo in 1

Heck, NPR is basing their theory on anecdotes from an ex-con. At least I'm putting up some numbers. Obviously, statistics like the above are a result of extremely complex systems. I tried to compare two countries with similar population mak

Nice and moody. The problem with gameplay seems to be: You have to move your circle around my drawing boxes half-way on top of it, thus launching it. Not too clever.

It depends entirely on how much you enjoy being a bigshot. Being rich doesn't make you an alpha male, but being an executive, maybe even CEO, of a company does just that. If it's something you're running out of your mom's basement, well...

Well, when you compare the free, male, non-laboring population of Ancient Athens with the entire educated population of the world today, you have to wonder where all the Socrateses, Platos, Aristotles, Aristophaneses, etc, etc, etc, are hid

It seems like you have something decent going on here, but I'm so far out of your target audience that I won't try to review it. If you want teachers to use it, it's important that your CRUD screens closely resemble the tools that teachers

Krugman can't be trusted. He criticizes for Greenspan...for Greenspan's mass inflationary policies, hmm?...oh, no. Rather for Greenspan's alleged faith that "the market is always right". That's not the sort of religion that sends one into a
