Dang, that long title is guaranteed to screw up some formatting. But, it addresses a whole bunch of my posts very well. What got this post going was a recently released article written by Ian O’Neill for Universe Today. In it, he cites scientists who conclude:
It is highly improbable that humans will ever explore beyond [...]

Reports state that a “kill switch” has been found in the Apple iPhone 2.0 OS, which allows Apple to basically disable any application that they please from your iPhone.

There are definitely pros and cons to the iPhone. However, blogging from practically anywhere with spell checking is a major pro for me!

( Sung to Berlin’s “Waiting on the Metro”. ) I tried to get one of these Friday:

Here is Volkswagon’s vision of the future:
Now, this is pretty cool. More along the lines of appearing pretty normal. Now, according to Cnet, Volkswagon is expecting a consumer version of this car in 7 to 10 years. What they are waiting on is for some semblence of a hydrogen infrastructure to be in place.

Watch out GM, there’s a new competitor in the hybrid market:
Actually, that’s the rear of the Aptera. Pretty spacey lookin huh? Might explain some of the UFO sightings in California of late. Now, on a more serious note, this things gets something like 230 miles per gallon.

A while back I did a little piece on the future of cars. Namely I was writing about the Chevy Volt. Well, actually it was more than a little while back. It was actually January 2007. Eighteen months later I see these headlines:
General Motors announced plans Tuesday to shut four truck and SUV plants that [...]
