    Oh great, now the girlfriend is going to want superconductive presents. :rolleyes:


    Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

                                It would appear that they're all stuck up.

                                I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image. Stephen Hawking
