I mean, despite science fiction, nobody actually wants a video phone, judging by their failure in the market. Business videoconferencing all seems to use nice expensive hardware, despite the existence of cheap computer-based video products. The Dick Tracy wrist picture phone is feasible and no doubt will appeal to all Sharper Image customers, but how could you argue it's necessary ? And where are those things we really need - an elevator system that actually arrives in a reasonable time, for example, or even a way to stop every member of an entire bank of elevators from clustering at the same floor ? Do you really need a death clock, counting backwards to your expected terminal minute on the basis of actuarial tables for your birth date and place (also available from Sharper Image) ? Why can't I even find a rubber chicken which doesn't have those awkward mould lines along it (I keep the rubber chicken, along with the screaming axe, in my office: my children are always taking my toys) ? I propose we pool our considerable lack of resources and choose just one necessary thing to invent.

Now, the mice might have a different approach, since they were going to get the ultimate answer from Arthur Dent's brain by dicing it. People talk about the redemptive and rehabilitative aspects of a justice system and deplore the deterrent (while claiming it doesn't work), but I'm a solid throwback and believe strongly that there are some items that call for not deterrence, not therapy, but simple, solid, revenge. It's somewhat against my usual knee-jerk liberal responses, but things like that call for revenge, pure, sweet, and simple. OK, so you don't feel very good for very long, but ... Anyway. I started a new discussion, this one is getting to me. When a friend's teenage daughter was gunned down in a frozen yoghurt store with two others, no motive, no suspect, no arrest, and now no more marriage (the couple couldn't deal with the guilt together, which is so tragic), the senselessness of life almost finished me off. Sometimes I understand suicide, but it seems so selfish. I used to say I'd never do it because it would upset my mother so much, but I'll have to find a new excuse soon (another topic not to be introduced).

To: MAD-SCIENTISTS@VJC.COM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Okay, now this is a gripe that I've made many many times. But WHERE THE HELL ARE OUR ROCKET PACKS?! Most everybody's seen the old footage. The damn things don't even NEED to be invented. If scientists want to make great friends of the common man, they should put out a marketable version of the rocket pack. Forget aircars, even. ROCKET PACK ROCKET PACK ROCKET PACK. I guarantee that if you give a man a rocket pack, it will be the first thing he thinks about in the morning, and the last thing he thinks about at night! Screw pills that cure baldness, and screw the cure for cancer. ROCKET PACKS! By the way, the basic problem with the video phone is this: the good thing about traditional phones is that they allow you to have conversations without paying full attention to your conversation partner. If one was to use a videophone all the time, one would have to feign a higher level of interest than anyone wants to. That's why it's not feasible. When you're on the phone, you can watch television (although, I don't know why you'd want to, really) cook some food, or any number of things. With videophones, you'd have to look the person in the eye the whole time, and it would be nerve wracking. Oh well. And I know as mad scientists, rocket packs are beyond our purview, but my GOD! I WANT A ROCKET PACK! The lack thereof makes me weep.... I'm sorry. I have to lie down. --- Nigel Sharp wrote: > So I was thinking (always a dangerous occupation) while working on > some > pictures (see the latest Sky&Telescope, or > http://www.noao.edu/image_gallery) > and pondering how to get out of going back to the South pole this > year... > if necessity is the mother of invention, why do so many unnecessary > things > get invented ? > > I mean, despite science fiction, nobody actually wants a video > phone, > judging by their failure in the market.

Actually, if you really have a million farthings, the metal content is worth significantly more.

Because they're playing on Star Trek, and since ST's "tricorder" has 235 separate functions (plus another 86 with the optional medical attachment), I suspect there's some deep meaningful reason (maybe it was invented by a guy called Tri ?). Anyone got the necessary Trekkie Technical Trivia documentation ? PS I was shocked to read recently that we're allowing children to be corrupted by Mad Scientists !

It has also been said that life is a comedy to those who think, but a tragedy to those who feel. Now, standing next to my computer here at home (this one is a DECstation, since I finally retired my VAXstation in favour of more pixels and ten times the speed) is a rather nicely made moulded figurine of Tiffany the Amazon, from Spawn. Although I rather dislike Macfarlane (because of what he did to my hero Spidey - I have Spiderman no.1 not because I'm a collector but because I bought it when it came out and resisted all adult attempts to dispose of such trash), the figure is impressive, except ... what's with this NAME thing ? Tiffany ?? As an Amazon (of course, she has both breasts, but then I suppose in the adolescent male dominated comic book market, following Pliny's earliest description might damage sales), that just doesn't cut it. Other Macfarlane characters are more traditional - Blood Queen, Thresher, Widow Maker - so can anyone explain Tiffany ? Yes, this is science - haven't you seen all those ads for scientific character analysis by number analysis of names ?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Dear Mr. Johnson, This survey was a test to locate such troopers. If they can't think =>1 then they wouldn't understand such a survey. The next step would be to run a survey on a "Quake II" site. If no one understands it (ie. choices=>1) then ALL of them qualify! Whomever DOES comprehend it would then be eliminated from the selection process. A notable advantage is that the IQ level would be less than the number of choices (ie. 2) and WOULD ATTEMPT to pass through solid objects and not know it was impossible, therefore raising the probability that they would succeed! Whether such a trooper would still be functional is very much open to debate! Sincerely nuts, Gene P.S. "Deadlines" are something my boss shouts about constantly. It must be a form of mental illness, because no one else seems to see them!

The element, tentatively, named "ADMINISTRATIUM", appears to be very closely related to BUREAUCRATIUM - a known deadly poison. "ADMINISTRATIUM" has no protons or electrons and thus has an atomic number of O. Upon initial inspection, however, it does have: - one neutron, - 125 assistant neutrons, - 75 vice neutrons and - 111 assistant vice neutrons, which together gives it an atomic mass of 312. PROPERTIES ----------- * These 312 particles are held together by a force that involves the continuous exchange of meson-like particles called MORONS. * It is also surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called PEONS. * Since it has no electrons, administratium is inert. However, it can be detected chemically as it impedes every reaction it comes in contact with. * According to the discoverers, a minute amount of administratium causes one reaction to take over four days to complete when it would have normally occurred in less than a second. * Administratium has a normal half-life of approximately THREE YEARS, at which time it does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which assistant neutrons, vice neutrons and assistant vice neutrons exchange places. Some studies have shown that the atomic mass actually INCREASES after each reorganization. OCCURRENCES ----------- Research at other laboratories indicates that administratium occurs naturally in the atmosphere. It tends to concentrate at certain points such as government agencies, large corporations, and universities. It can usually be found in the newest, best appointed, and best maintained buildings. Scientists point out that administratium is known to be toxic at any level of concentration and can easily destroy any productive reaction where it is allowed to accumulate. Attempts are being made to determine how administratium can be controlled to prevent irreversible damage, but results to date are not promising. --part1_9c23706b.247913d6_boundary Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Return-path: Mmm16dav@aol.com From: Mmm16dav@aol.com Full-name: Mmm16dav Message-ID: <9c23706b.247489d1@aol.com> Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 17:40:33 EDT Subject: Fwd: (no subject) To: Xjune@aol.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="part2_9c23706b.247489d1_boundary" X-Mailer: AOL 4.0.i for Windows 95 sub 134 --part2_9c23706b.247489d1_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit thought you would enjoy this one came from the same source as Bob Dylan song.

"Good Luck Mr.. Gorsky" When Apollo Mission astronaut, Neil Armstrong, first walked on the moon, he not only gave his famous "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" statement but followed it by several remarks. Most of it consisted of the usual com traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control. Just before he re-entered the lander, however, he made the enigmatic remark: "Good luck Mr.. Gorsky." Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning some rival Soviet Cosmonaut. However, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in either the Russian or American space programs. Over the years many people questioned Armstrong as to what the "Good luck Mr.. Gorsky" statement meant, but Armstrong always just smiled. Following a speech in Tampa Bay Florida on July 5, 1995, a reporter brought up the 26 year old question to Armstrong. This time he finally responded. Mr.. Gorsky had finally died and so Neil Armstrong felt he could answer the question. When he was a kid, he was playing baseball with a friend in the backyard. His friend hit a fly ball which landed in the front of his neighbor's bedroom windows. His neighbors were Mr.. & Mrs.. Gorsky. As he leaned down to pick up the ball, young Armstrong heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr. Gorsky, "Oral sex! You want oral sex?! You'll get oral sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!" ================================================================================ Archive-Date: Tue, 25 May 1999 18:47:58 -0700 Sender: owner-mad-scientists@VJC.COM Date: Tue, 25 May 1999 21:44:57 -0400 (EDT) From: Eugene Valido Reply-To: Mad-Scientists@Mad-Scientists.ORG To: "Mad-Scientists@Mad-Scientists.ORG" Subject: Re: Neil Armstrong's Mr. Gorsky Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII My God!!!

I am under the impression as time goes on we will find the exact locus on the DNA helix that controls that function and be able to render it inert. Of course, the folks at the Social Security office would run screaming into the streets at the prospect of retirement payments stretching over centuries. (I like the idea myself,I could learn to adjust pretty quick.) In the book of Genesis, lifespans of 600-700 yrs was the AVERAGE. In Exodus, if you made it to 50-60, you were doing very well. So, what happened? On a different note....have you seen the "Evil Genius University" website. I think its a must for every Mad Scientist. Also, check out the "Evil Orverlord" site.....the 100 resolutions are wonderful.

Actually, I remember a recent news report that they have found an enzyme (or some-such) that *does* extend the timeout genes... ... at least in the Petrie dish, for now. So, it will come about, that all of our cells can be stretched to infinite life. And the good part, to answer the obvious question, is that it stretches the life without causing cancer (no uncontrolled growth, but also no triggered death). >Opens the Pandora's box, doesn't it?

Death will come only from accident, murder or war. Children will not belong to the parents but to the world, placed on display as only a few people will ever get to see much less have a child. I remember the horrific story about the Dione children born in Canada in the 30ies. Five girls I believe, taken from their parents by the goverment because they were considered a national treasure. Amagine that !! Each family would have to wait for a family member to die before a child could be born. Poor grampa, his own kids pushing him under a train or convincing him that he is selfish to live and take away the pleasure a child in the family would bring, or money or fame. So amagine a world where a Hittler rules most of the world, there is no peace in knowing he will someday die of old age, you can't amagine living 600 years in bondage---WAHHHHH. No thanks, but one small side thought, I would never have lived beyond the age of 5 years without mordern medicine, yet my grandma lived to be 99, she was in her 60ies when antibiotics came on the scene.
