Re: Cost
I suspect that a WW1 biplane would have had difficulty getting to 40,000 ft to fire at that balloon.

It's just a set of Registry values in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\<ZOne name>
The full zone info is stored in a 44 byte TZI structure in each zone's entry
The problem is that Chile doesn't have its own zone entry, it is considered to be under "Pacific SA Standard Time."
It's probably time that MS created a separate Zone entry for Chile considering the number of times they have changed. That's easy enough to roll out with the next update, but every machine in Chile would need to have it's regional settings changed to the new zone.
Don't worry about the lizard people. They've already answered that question:

Could this unleash the lizard people that inhabit the inner sphere?
How do we know they did not already drill up using this technology and are already amongst us?

Not in the largest market (PNG). They'll just switch back to Telikom as many former Digicel subscribers have done over the last year or two.
As an aside, the fact that Digicel currently uses Huawei equipment is going to make it an expensive exercise giving the Aus antipathy to it.

Proven? You mean it's been running for 10 million years? It will still be running in 5 million years time and will have lost 1/2 a second?
I suspect they mean "lost time at a rate ot one second per 10 million years over a trial period" which is a very different matter..
In Pegasus Mail:
Options - Sending Mail - Checkbox 'Suppress BCC listings when sending mail" should be checked!
To quote David Harris:
"Suppress BCC field listings in outgoing mail BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) is a useful, but poorly-standardized feature. There are at least four ways a BCC field could be written into a message:
It could be omitted altogether
It could be present, but contain no addresses at all
It could contain only each individual recipient's address
It could contain the addresses of all people receiving the BCC
All of these methods have adherents and detractors. By default, Pegasus Mail lists all the BCC recipients in the BCC field of mail it sends: if you would prefer that no addresses were shown in the field, then check this control. When this option is turned on, the BCC field will simply contain the text "(Suppressed)", without any addresses."
<quote>It also says very curious things about all the MS Office applications.
Either they are storing a huge amount of unnecessary data or their output filters are rather poor as regards file size.</quote>
Nothing unusal there. Take a look at the HTML generated by Outllook in an email, the output of Excel and Word's "Save as WebPage" and Access' OutputTo HTML.
Bloated cr*p every time.

<quote>What this latest research seems to show is more solar activity = more cosmic rays = more particles = more cloud formation.... but doesn't more cloud formation = lower temperatures?
Quite the opposite.
Cosmic radiation doesn't come from the sun. It comes from "the cosmos".
It appears that when the sun is active, the stronger solar wind prevents cosmic rays from entering the earth's atmosphere by sweeping them around the earth. When the sun is inactive, more of them penetrate the atmosphere.
It also appears that increasing clouds have a cooling effect.
Since it now also appears that the more cosmic radiation reaching the atmosphere causes more cloud, the process would be:
Quiet sun = moe cosmic rays reaching the atmosphere = more cloud formation = lower temperature.
I think that you will find that the drastic fall in the the price of solar in Australia over the last few years has more to do with the strength of the Australian Dollar that anything else. All of the kit is imported. In late 2008, the AUD was worth less that 80 US cents. Currently is is worth close to $1.10 US..
IANAL but:
Isn't the filing "a work specially ordered or commissioned for use as a contribution to a collective work",
the "collective work" being the court record - with the person commissioning it being the lawyer's client.
ISTM that the copyright should lie with the client, not the lawyer under "work for hire" provisions.
