There's a 5-CD set released by a British label with only recordings of number stations. This guy obsessed with them has been recording for a long, long time. Check it out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Conet_Pro

I thought about it, and I'm still waiting for someone to answer this. Good question.

Really, you want to go live and work legally on a different nation, but you don't want to spend some days on paperwork, you just want someone to call you and say 'you're brilliant! Come over we got everything sorted out!&#x27

I think you were downvoted because in the U.S. the term 'liberal' has a different meaning than in different parts of the world.

Yep, just like the Kyoto Protocol. (no sarcasm, just pointing out that he's right, and that most people also think every nation is bound by the Kyoto Protocol)

A lot of his work was developed at IMPA (Brazils Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics), which has historically been somewhat connected to french mathematics universities. But, yeah, our best minds still go abroad to become fully devel

Following the tip to Stephenson's article, here's also a really good book, 'The Victorian Internet: The Remarkable Story of the Telegraph and the Nineteenth Century's On-line Pioneers'. http://www.amazon.

No. Try carrying 30 kilograms all the time, everyday. Unless you hire only weightlifters/football players to work your factory.

Will probably be awesome too. However, actually going scuba diving, for real, is much easier than going on a flight like that. Closest thing is probably hang-gliding, which is much more dangerous than scuba diving.

Yeah, I liked it too. It was a good movie. But notice I was complaining that my friends liked it way too much. To me it was a good movie, and the twist was good too, but, for example, two people I know got fight club tattoos on them.

If you could get indistinguishable results, studios would have done it to many of their movies already. I haven't been to a movie theather for the past 4 years or so (kids), so I don't know what it's like now, but back then y

I though the same thing. Anyone who's ever been camping with no other light source other than a full moon will remember how much light (I guess is it's pretty blueish?) the moon puts out. But, maybe it's not too much, since o

Sometimes the coconut is not at the right point, so the water will no only not taste as sweet, but will also have an unusual taste, even bitter sometimes. Even though he shouldn't, the guy will still sell it to you, though.

What?? Look, coconut water is a new trend in the US , but not everywhere else where it's been consumed for quite a long time. Here in Brazil I've been drinking it (me and everybody else) since I was a kid, and it was just like ha

one or two out of how many? That's like Usain Bolt saying "if I can break the 100 WR, so can you" in a forum where Asafa Powell also hangs out.

In the case of missing a player, take Uruguay for example: they just lost their best player after he bit (yes, à la Mike Tyson) the shoulder of a player on his last game. Fifa banned him for some 8 games, so he'll be absent for the res

I just wish we could get rid of the common cold already. (I know there are far more deadlier stuff around, but I got a cold right now, and it sucks when not comparing it against the deadlier stuff. Oh, and I also know that cold virus strain
