        It's a show about a guy with a computer in his head and you think THIS pushes it from "coherent" into "sci-fi"? -- nm - Ender Apr 28, 07:41 3

  - what do you call someone who plays the fife? A fifer? -- nm - loosilu Apr 28, 07:21 9
    - Only if they're named Michelle or Deedee. -- nm - Reagen Apr 28, 07:24
    - Hmm. Sounds likely; also, it could be a fifist ... -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 07:23 7
      - I'd go with fifer. It's similar to pipe, as in 'ten pipers piping' -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 07:27 6
        
        but it's also similar to a flute, as in flutist (or is it "floutist"?) -- nm - Beryllium Apr 28, 07:31 5
        
        oh, I meant the word 'fife' is similar to the word 'pipe', not just that the instrument was similar :) -- nm - Roger More Apr 28, 07:34

    - The part that sent it over the top was she was sitting right there on the dais. - Will Hunting Apr 28, 07:06 1
      - That's what made it so much funnier. He had to have the nerve to say it in front of her. -- nm - Krusty Apr 28, 07:08

    - And they'll probably find some silly reason to argue about it too. -- nm - Diva Apr 28, 07:07
I hate checking to see how much longer a research will take, and instead, it completes it and I have to start the original one from basically scratch. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 28, 06:53 3
- you can figure it out easily enough without actually switching research fields - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 06:55 2
  - Tr = T - ((( T * Rd ) - Rc ) / Rd ) to be exact -- nm - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 07:17 1
    - sorry, it's actually even simpler than that Tr = T - ( Rc / Rd ) -- nm - znufrii, not dead Apr 28, 07:23
I enjoy listening to Radio 1 Newsbeat when the interview people 'on the street' in the UK - ty97 Apr 28, 06:48 2
