Sometimes those of us who grew up speaking English take for granted how complex a language it is. I only really notice now as I work with several people for whom English is a second language.
Anyway I found this and thought that I would share.

The English Language.

Monday, April 7th, 2008But build it all the same! The French trying to stifle or stop an American company from making a profit? What? La Never! Click me. Pay no attention to the above link, its clearly American propaganda to make the French look bad.
Pod racing, the real version!
Monday, April 7th, 2008I have to give Peter Diamandis credit, he knows how to get something moving.
Nasa over the years has been stagnent, at least in the maned space flight department. They are trying to use outdated equipment, and one has to wonder…why?
Some people say we should scrap the whole thing, save money, etc. I disagree, I think NASA should concentrate more on deep space exploration. Unmaned flights to Mars, and further. Find those elusive black holes, and distant galaxies. Leave the more conventional space flight to the private sector. Its the way to go. The competition the capitalism will bring into the equation is what will drive the innovations and inventions. 5 Years ago did anyone think someone could get a craft into low orbit and then relaunch it within a weeks time? Enter capatilsm and greed and it was done. I think this space race idea is just what the fledgling industry needs. Think of all the people who would be working on better, cheaper, more effiecent ways to do it.
