In episode 1274 Jason mentioned that it would be cool when we have surface to surface laser in response to the story about the new plane blasting laser from Raytheon. It probably wouldn't be cool if you did have surface to surface laser since normally light travels in a straight line. Without the help of a conveniently placed black hole the laser beam isn't curving back down like a missile would. If you did have a black hole handy, both you and your target are pretty much screwed. Well you could bounce it off a mirror, if you just happened to have a mirror in the right spot at the right time. -Donnie Darko

Until recently every time I heard Rafe talking talking about getting hacked, or stealing codes, I constantly thought, ""I don't care, that couldn't possibly, happen to me"" and then I was playing World of Warcraft and someone sent me a message saying I would get into the Cataclysm Beta if I went to the site. So, since I was kind of bored I went to the site (even though I doubted I would actually do anything there) and it looked EXACTLY like the battle.net login for WoW, so like any other stupid little puppet I entered my info and logged in, and then, moments after, realized it was most probably the stupid thing I had ever in any way, done. And now I understand that Rafe isn't an insanely paranoid nerd, he is a justifiably paranoid nerd.
P.S. thanks for the laughs keep it up buzz peeps. (for the horde)
