Some Consideration
2005.12.11 22:33
Drugs are poison and medicine at the same time. Drugs themselves are located beyond the judgement of good and evil but once we failed to apply, it would invite the aftermath beyond our imagination.
It takes huge cost to develop new medicines, instead it cost much less just to find what disease to apply. That oughtn't necessarily to be reduced to the matter of cost though, it is a reality.,p. Aspirin is confirmed to be one of the most effective medicines ever and there has been no significant side effect on this medicine. But remember there are some cases some medicine turned to be both harmful and beneficial depending on being applied to the kinds of diseases. We need lots of clinical tests when we tried to apply some medicines to other diseases. Any way it's supposed to cost a lot as well.
Questionable Effectiveness &Application
2005.12.11 22:30
that extracts hydrogen directly from water using only solar energy.
I still doubt the effectiveness of this technic, in space how to apply and how cost effective in space for what?
The University of Tokyo is a national university, they are using millions of out taxes, I want them to do R&D in a field more explicable to anyone.
A Moment Of Evolution
2005.12.11 22:21
This society has been led by 3% of elite and 97% of the rest of the non-elite, in the case of DNA also that is corresponding to 3% of those who hold perfect hereditary information and 97% of the rest of those who don't hold hereditary information.
Some call them 'junk' but actually they have been waiting to be replaced in case of gene defects in a position elite DNA has been occupied. When they are replaced, we call it a moment of evolution.
Riddles of Human Life Span
2005.12.11 22:20
We only knew humans who lived near one millennium in Genesis, and after four hundred years from the last description of Genesis, human life came to be such as that of current humans.
Something terrible related to making human life span short in these four hundred years occurred.
Another perspective. The expansion of human life span doesn't help population problem. Or make worse. We have to solve this population problem - how to nourish this large population first.
Caveat
2005.12.11 22:17
Few years ago new type pneumonia SARS -sever acute respiratery syndrom was found among Chinese in China sporadically and later cases of bird flu started to be reported among south east Asia. At that time we hadn't decided whether two incidents were related each other. Since then here in Japan, cases of bird flu were reported occasionally in different parts of Japan, all infected chickens were terminated and still we haven't found the patients of new type pneumonia. We are still arguing whether bird flu is transmissable to humans.
This news was new to me. If it were true, bird flu is in general transmissable to humans. That could kill this large population. In Asia public hygiene remains to be higher priority.
Searched By Score
2005.12.11 8:08
Yahoo!, Google, msn, there are some search engines in every day use, but still I'm not sure what criteria they are using. The number of links? The number of access? Both are not so bad, but sometimes I find some are based on the differences in what computer language was used. In using some computer languages, the sites are easier to extract and more practical to use. In this case regardless of the number of links, access, there are some sites that tend to appear first.
Among many other search engines, slashdot is the best, since they are generated in order by score. The serach engine that evaluates the value of contents in score -that's finest.
We Call Them By Number
2005.12.11 7:55
When Katrina hit the Gulf area in America, we were joking, because the number of hurricane hit in the area was few, you could count them as human's names. But 21 is still very many, it would be clumsy to call each as Nancy, Tom, Jane, Mike, and so on. Alpha is better since all we have to do is just define the hurricane. In the case of my country, we call them -typhoons by number. We usually have 30 typhoons in a year.
To call them Greek alphabet -alpha, beta, gumma is still too stylish and scholastic -it is like a radiation, I think No.1, 2, 3 .. is just fine and enough
Limitless Human Resources

Fusion battery -aka fuel cell will be the next most prosperous alternatives for fossil fuel. It will take a little bit time to materialise the theory Einstein reached - E=mc2, it is worth while for us to work for it.
The weakness of gravity would be explicable from extra-dimension hypothesis, but unfortunately this hypothesis cannot explain why gravity is so weak. This human assessment was made in this dimension, if it were made in extra-dimension, the result would be definetely different from what we did in our dimension.
We might as well say that the existence of gravity itself is a riddle. Under the influence of different gravity, time line varies each other. -In the moon and the Earth, the timeline varies 'relatively' each other, that's what theory of general relativism tells us. These assessments were made in 3 dimensions -where we see and certified under the theorem of general relativism, so this theory seems valid to explaining 'why gravity is so weak?' But if we all were put under the influence of 4 dimensions -existing 3 plus time, are we able to assess the same conclusion as we did in 3 dimensions? The answer is probably 'no'. Since our wisdom is limited in the 3 dimensions, in 4 dimensions there would be probably other theorems valid and applied to the ones who are in 4 dimensions. It is already taken for granted that the gravity indicates the difference in different dimensions since Einstein. But it is just the result of theoretical consistency from the perspectives of 3 dimensions. The rest of the assessment from more than 3 dimensions belongs to still unknown realm.
Leave it to Natural Selection

This attempt has been widely held among not only botanists but zoologists. By and large to keep the diversity of spieces is against the law of natural selection. If given environment were simplified, the existing spieces tend to get more simplified. If given environment were diversified, they are likely to get more diversified. This is just a result of adaptation of life. There are only one rule for it. -Let it be.
Psedo-Academic Misconception
2005.12.10 8:41
These types of simplified dichotomy often leads to a misconception resulting from the differences in our racial background, in which I feel dubious there are. I admit there are general temperaments among different peoples, but that general temperament does not tell the difference among people well. I've got lots of friends whose like-minded over the differences of our national background.
Difference between peoples -it's neither interesting nor useful.
History of Books
2005.12.10 8:39
Several thousands years ago the Ten Commendments were written down on the stone, in Mesopotamia cuneiform was invented to write down the letter on the clay, in Indas civilisation many clays were found with still unknown letters, Rosetta stone was a clue for us to use stones to write down the letters.
Later papyrus was found to make paper, but we had to wait another 1500 years till Gutenberg invented the printing technic. Then the book in current form had been gradually established, till then goat skin had been used and the roles were general, the technic of binding, printing were only developed later.
We must say the history of books is not so long as we might resume.
We used to write a letter in paper with a pen. Now we rarely do so. Library used to refer to only building that contains lots of books, now that also means collection of contents in computer.

#Software Patents
As long as this article tells us, yes. However this agreement has a lot of loopholes, and it's just a gentlemen agreement. Still only upper class believes software patents protectable, but in reseacher levels, more and more it's dubious for them to be able to keep the software patents.
#Tester
It was a little bit sad to read that the cloud was originally devised for notification purposes in case of emergency leaking of polluted chemical materials. Always human wisdom has been trying to get over the unwelcomed situations.
Will That Matters
2005.12.09 7:01
When we swim, we use all arms and legs, not just only two arms. When our ancesters landed from the sea, they must have used all arms and legs first, then only later when they had gotten accustomed to moving, they learned to use only two parts of the body - legs. When our ancesters wanted to fly, they must have used all four arms and legs, and only later when they had gotten accustomed to flying over the sky, they just stopped using two parts of their body -legs. Everything is a matter of will, when there is a will, there is a way.

#Sword With Two Edges
In the near future, almost all financial transactions will be done with in the Internet. But I hope I want to spend $10 instead of $100 for buying a book or rather downloading an e-book. The Internet has to invite cheaper and more accesible society. Otherwise it can turn to be an uncontrollable tool.
#OSS
Thanks to many friends here and there elsewhere, my notion as to OSS I previously held has been changing a lot, now I feel this movement is a kind of great experiment in the Internet world. I understand many companies have been trying to adopt the sysyem as you mentioned above, how about Microsoft? You let me know the existence of incubator club before. I can't believe this giant company is just opposing to this movement
the Internet is a kind of great experiment of the F/OSS movement -lars
As if I were able to open the new perspective before me.
No Title

It's Not Always Good For Anyone. The problem is always how to take these compounds in. If they smoke, they fulfil their right to take them in, but that infringes somebody's right not to take them in. If they take these compounds HU-210 or synthetic THU in their body in the form of pill or capsule, that's fine.
