3/1     Quantum Sleeper!
        http://www.qsleeper.com
        \_ Foster, you're dead!
        \_ Ha ha!  Whoever wants to harm you can just wait outside until you
           have to go to the bathroom.
           \_ Yes, I hear tornados are very patient.
              \_ Tornados can't uproot the whole sleeper?
           \_ Look at the list of features fool, it includes a toiletry system!!
              \_ Can you turn your excrement into an offensive weapon
                 from inside the bed?

10/20  Earthquake!
       http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsus/Quakes/nc71667366.html
       \_ It's funny that the Great California ShakeOut earthquake drill just
          took place this morning.  It'd be even more funny if the quake hit
          during the drill.

12/2    So I am trying to convince my company to take disaster planning
        more seriously. Does anyone have any hard numbers on how often
        data centers fail? I mean blow up, burn down, flood, etc, with
        total loss of all services for an extended period of time.
        \_ hard numbers tend to be SEKRET.  But check out Yahoo's recent
           outage and UltraDNS' outage.  Those were both pretty bad.

6/19    CBS and MSNBC talk to a PhD about global warming causing more energetic
        earthquakes.  Only problem is that he's not a PhD, he's a crackpot.
        http://www.sanspretense.com/2008/06/18/78
        \_ Which obviously means that all white things are ducks.
           \_ Not the conclusion I was drawing.  The mainstream media is so
              enamored with global warming they'll take anyone to link anything

5/17    Southern ocean saturated with CO2
        http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/science/05/17/climate.ocean.reut/index.html
        "We thought we would be able to detect these only the second half of
        this century, say 2050 or so," she said. But data from 1981 through
        2004 show the sink is already full of carbon dioxide. "So I find this
        really quite alarming."

10/10   Last week's Economist had an article on using man-made, controlled
        tornados for power.  I just thought it was interesting after our
        discussion on using hurricanes for power.  Unfortunatly, the
        economist link doesn't seem to work, but I got this on google:

9/1     Would you rather live in a city which has:
        Earthquakes?
        \_ Definitely.  If it's strong enough to kill you, there's no question.
           I don't like advance warning.  Tornados/hurricanes have too much
           anxiety attached.
           \_ I agree.  An earthquake only lasts for a few seconds (unless

        Californians get hourly quake forecasts
        \_ Just always predict "no quake" and you'll almost always be
           right!
           \_ I checked out the chart and the colored regions are, gasp,
              the faults.

11/11   How come people in big crowded cities in Japan don't live in high-rise
        buildings like those in Hong Kong?  First I thought it's because of
        earthquakes, but then they already know how to build high-rise hotels
        and office buildings in those cities.
        \_ 1) Earthquakes.  Sure, Japanese engineers can build some amazingly
           earthquake-resistant buildings, but those kinds of buildings are
