I'll note that a spear is a weapon.

Cursorial hunting is a fascinating thing, though.

I find the animation horrible and distracting.

Once I just looked away, I could pay attention to what was said. Interesting...but far too optimistic. There is a reason predation and parasitism exist and have analogues even in modern human society - they work. Just because an entity has vastly greater mental capability doesn't mean it won't be an asshole - or won't happen to regard human beings in the same way we regard insects.

What is this from? I seem to remember Nimoy hosting an early-80s show on cable that was devoted to special effects in movies and TV shows, but I don't see anything like that mentioned in his IMDB profile.

I brake for fish-mecha.

Since they actually cleaned up, it *is* love!

Annette Strean is far too cute.

Hmm, this excerpt doesn't really explain why it beats the Challenger 2 or the Abrams, but it's an interesting bit.

I am a bit amused nobody's commented about how they're not going to vote for a clip on horrible death machines...

Looks pretty staged.

They used to play this a lot on WOXY.com.

Cute video.

That had to have hurt his time.

Eh, I'm just not impressed.

Ah, cool. I was late getting to the movie and missed this scene...

Well, the man who wrote "Peace Train" also converted to Islam and supported the fatwa against Salman Rushdie (and then tried to sleaze out of having said that when it got him bad publicity). Life's a funny thing.

http://www.nytimes.com/books/99/04/18/specials/rushdie-cat.html?_r=1&oref=login An article quoting Yusuf Islam on just what he'd like to see happen to Rushdie, and how he'd help (from the Evil Korporate Media/Librul MSM, I'm afraid).

I buy the first interviewee. The second one, "James Greenberg", is either a plant or faking it. I don't believe anyone who cares as intently about the PS3 as he does first heard about the delay from a TV reporter.

The delay may hurt the PS3, but I think the price tag for it - which increases seemingly every time anyone from Sony makes a statement about the PS3 - is the greater harm. The me-tooism (tacking limited position-sensing onto otherwise conventional controllers after Nintendo started promoting its controller) worries me a bit, but that could be harmless PHB-ism.

Now to listen to some early Kate Bush and see if she suddenly sounds like Leonard Cohen...

I was only certain it *was* a gag at "malleable, logarithmic casing", I'll admit.
