    Doctor Who on Sci-Fi - ongoing thread (merged)

    I've always found the regeneration episodes slow and plodding. They always need to do the same things (Doctor is unconcious, Doctor wakes up, makes fun of his appearance, he chooses an outfit, his companions don't know what's going on, he saves the world somehow without realizing it) so they've...

    Question re: Galaxy Quest & Star Trek?...

    Jonathan Frakes thought it was so funny that he insisted to Patrick Stewart that he watch it. Stewart was thoroughly impressed.

    3806 on the way!!!! Have a few questions about HDMI switching and audio

    Try http://www.monoprice.com for inexpensive cables. I'm using component switching on my receiver and have no noticed no difference in picture quality.

    Lots of HD trailers at Apple's Quicktime site

    Make sure you are using the latest drivers for your video and audio devices. Check your audio settings as well. Go to Control Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices -> Audio -> Sound Playback -> Advanced -> Performance. Make sure that the Hardware Acceleration slider is set to Full. Also check...

    Lots of HD trailers at Apple's Quicktime site

    You are absolutely positive that you saved the file to your HD first? Streaming off the internet esp. for a such a large file will result in lots of jerkiness, unless you happen to have lots of dedicated downstream bandwidth.

    Why do American cars and trucks suck so bad?

    It's good process, good engineering, and good product specifications. Good car manufacturers have all three. Bad ones have none.

    "The Onion" becomes real life news

    A good straight razor gives a very, very close shave. The problem is that they tend to move horizontally very easily, which hurts like hell.

    All-natural products

    You're missing the point. Since you have stated that one of the reasons that you avoid Fluoride is because the EPA has a contraindication against it, I merely extended that to products that the EPA has never tested, which is a very extensive list. It seems to me that you latch onto the...

    All-natural products

    Neither were oranges and mushrooms. I still eat them. Really, if you really want to base what you're exposed to based on what the EPA hsa tested and knows, I suggest you get off this planet immediately.

    All-natural products

    I use sea salt because it doesn't contain iodine - I find the taste of iodine objectionable.

    All-natural products

    You do know that the human body makes it's own formaldehyde, right? If you don't want formaldehyde in your system, you'd better stop eating. Rotting food in your gut forms it.

    Crossing the US/Canada border

    I don't think you realize the volume of truck commerce that crosses the Canada/US border. If every one of those drivers had to show a passport volume would decrease markedly. Canada is the United States second largest trading partner for a few reasons, including ease of commerce.

    Gas prices go below $1.00

    Yawn. Yes, currently, extraction of oilsands does use lots of NG, which is a concern. Tell me a number for peak oil. Then prove it. Prove to me that man knows the precise amount of oil left in the world.

    Married... With Children Season 4 - Syndicated episodes (and explanation)

    Wait, this is for the theme song? So there no music edits in the show itself?

    Married... With Children Season 4 - Syndicated episodes (and explanation)

    I work with editors. Yes, it can take hours. It takes time just to capture the source, more time to edit it in something like Avid; I can't even imagine what it would take to sound-match the music to the material. That could take weeks. At the very least, if you had the fastest editor in the...

    Evan Almighty? Bruce Almighty Sequel WITHOUT Jim Carrey

    The only thing wrong with sequels is when they're bad. Give it a chance. If they suck, they suck and Universal will be further along the road of them going bankrupt.

    i orange habanero peppers that i grew, now what do i do with them?

    Wear gloves when working with hot peppers - do not think that washing will remove the oils. It can stay on your skin for DAYS.

    Crossing the US/Canada border

    The problem was that he used a copy of his birth certificate. You need to use the original. The passport requirement will not go through. It would grind commerce to a halt.

    Gas prices go below $1.00

    Ah, good old Peak Oil. Canada has more oil than Saudi Arabia in the oilsands. The NYT article is very wrong about the break even amount for oilsand extraction - it's only about $12 now.

    Hi Def with Coax Cable???

    Of course coax can carry HD. However, I think you're confused as to how the connections actually all work together. It should be something like: Wall: coax -> Cable box: coax -> Cable box: component/DVI/HDMI -> TV: component/DVI/HDMI. So, as you can see, the only time coax is used is...

    CRT RPTV "perform horribly in ambient-light situations"???

    I have to say that my parent's Sony rear LCD TV is shockingly better in daylight than my Toshiba TW40X81 ever was, even with it's protective screen removed.

    The NHL 2004-2005 Season (LOCKOUT! now over)

    Word is that the NYI don't have enough money to buy him out. Yashin will be the one man team :) I like the rule changes. Apparently, the two-line pass rule was put in because of Maurice Richard. Did you know that penalties used to have to be fully served, regardless if the opposing team...
