(...) Sea Monkeys. (...) Heck, they're even building a MoonBase on it! (...) 2a) The sea has a natural tendency to want to stop moving, agitating untold numbers of Sea Monkey colonies. 2b) The Sea Monkeys, worried that their vast underwater domains (...)

(...) Almost there, but not quite. The moon does rotate, but it has slowed down to the point were one lunar day is equal to one lunar year (yes, on the moon, every day is your birthday).

Quoting Richie Dulin <rdulin@REMOVEmla.com.au>: (...) *blink* Wow. Ok, It's taken me a long time to figure out just how I want to approach this. 1) the water shifting side to side - how do you think this happens if not from the gravitational pull of (...)

  Re: The Derotatinator
 
(...) I'm no scientist, but I'll give it a go anyway... (...) I suspect that the water shifting from side to side counteracts the moon's lack of rotation (through the conservation of energy), thus stopping it exploding. Where the moon may run into (...)

  slashdot has lego article
 
if you go to slashdot.org today they have an article featuring some guy who built a 3d scanner with the help of legos. It's a pretty intresting idea. They photos are cool too, the skull makes for a strange pic. (21 years ago, 21-Jun-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I use a few things-- Apache web server (www.apache.org) DNStoGo (www.dnstogo.com (iirc)) and a Compaq p2300 with a 3.2 gig HD running Windows 2000 (basically so I can use the built-in FTP functionality of Win2K.)

  Web Servers
 
Is there anywhere I can go to find out how to set up my own server on my home computer, or anyone who can tell me how to do so? I do have broadband cable internet, so is this enough for me to set up my own server? And, what kind of software and (...) (21 years ago, 20-Jun-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)

  Re: Need Web Page

Does anyone else out there hate Yahoo, especially Geocities? Their ads are relentless, customer service is non-existant, and replies to complaint and help emails are useless and written from a template! Does anyone agree/disagree with me, or am I (...)
