Need to know how to stash your weed?

This dude sounds like Forrest Gump. Or the other shrimp guy from the same movie, Bubba something. You'd swear he's talking slow like that to make it easy to understand even when you're high. (see comment)

Potential cure for HIV discovered

Comment in News (8 diggs, 1 reply) - on 06/29/2007

This type of headline always brings out the BigPharma paranoia in people :) Regarding the story, it's far more complex than the article puts it and once again (just like that last story about cancer being cured), lab results may give way to something com … (see comment)

Flashes of Maradona. An Amazing Goal by Lionel Messi

Comment in Videos (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 04/19/2007

How about learning a little more before rambling on about something you know nothing about? This article needs background and there's nothing better than a REAL scientist studying in the field to explain and inform. Please read on: http://scienceblogs.co … (see comment)

Support the miracle drug!

Please don't consider this to be in any way "against" this amazing new study, but there is more than meets the eye here and people should read a bit more before taking hasty conclusions. This DOES work on rats and petri dishes (so do other innovating subs … (see comment)

So true. But it's just amazing how you can see the crossing being done and the way dominance is shown in some font crossings. (see comment)

IT Salaries - what do you get?

Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 07/15/2006

Funny to see all this money being made. I know a couple of IT guys working in Portugal with university degrees and they earn about 1000 euros a month... so that's about 14000 euros/year. Nothing near what everybody here is chatting about. (see comment)

This whole social networking scheme is screwed up. MySpace just happens to be the place to be now. If they fix things up, the creeps will just jump onto the next one, say Hi5 or whatever. Take a look at Orkut... that also took a few WRONG turns and now … (see comment)
