War.. a devastating war for the little resources of the world. Who would have the little food left? What technology was left from the destruction from the asteroid was wiped out with the nuclear blasts that emitted electrmagnetic pulses destroying all microprocessors.  (see reference= &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_pulse"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_pulse&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Humanity had lost almost everything, technology, knowledge, and the population was dwindling to only a few million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However despite all despair some youth had hope for the future that a working computer will be found from the old days, and technology will be rebuilt. These dreams were soon to come true!&lt;br /&gt;It seems that a submarine that had an onboard computer was trapped underwater when the asteroid struck the earth was frozen inside the ices that covered the earth… It seems that these heavy sheets of ice protected the computer from the neutron blasts and left the microprocessors intact!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now after the winter was gone and the ice was starting to melt the submarine was rediscovered and the computer salvaged…. After10 years of study… humans were able to reconstruct a power source so they can turn on this computer... at last they would be able to tap into the ancient knowledge of humanity before the catastrophy and rebuild the future…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a stadium full of 5000 people the computer would be turned on. A gigantic mirror would show the image of the screen to all the people… and a new era would begin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jenop Pushed the power button, his hand trembling with anxiousness, he was the one who was chosen to turn on the computer! In fact he also was the one who found a few other parts for this machine that were missing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a few moments a green and blue screen showed with a round symbol… and music was heard throughout the stadium!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IT WAS WORKING!!!! 2 enigmatic Words appeared in front of Jenop’s eyes.. shimmering with beauty…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WINDOWS VISTA&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"At LAST!" Jenop thought.. "At last humanity would be saved, civilization would be rebuilt, &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;people would start learning again, and there would be no more hunger and pain!!! "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then suddenly an annoying sound honked, and strange message appeared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Error, your system configuration has changed.

There is no magic in cooking with your cell phone. The secret is in the radio waves that the cell phone radiates. The journalists created a simple microwave structure as shown in the picture. They called from one cell phone to the other and left both phones on talking mode. They placed a tape recorder next to phones to imitate sounds of speaking so the phones would stay on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img title="" src="http://www.computerboom.com/support/22.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;After, 15 minutes: The egg became slightly warm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;25 minutes: The egg became very warm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;40 minutes: The egg became very hot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;65 minutes: The egg was cooked.

Bottom Posting: Case Closed!</title><content type='html'>Top Posting vs. Bottom Posting: Case Closed!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Schneider head of ECDL Research, study for human – computer interaction said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the request from the &lt;a href="http://www.ecdl.com"&gt;European ECDL &lt;/a&gt;program (European Computer Driving License), our computer science team (that included 10 of the top computer scientists in Europe) conducted a study that involved 1200 people of an age group, from 16 to 60 in a period of 9 months to test the speed in which they use various applications and the internet. One of the subjects we studied closely was to see if top or bottom posting in newsgroup environments is the best method of posting.&lt;br /&gt;Some of the test included brain scans with MRI while the user was interacting with the computer to see the brain activity in real time, along with various sensors for body reactions. After the tests were finished they asked the participants to answer a list of questions. ”Out test lab consisted of a network of 20 windows XP and Linux machines connected to a 20 M internet connection, fast enough to ensure that there would be no delay from the transfer of information.&lt;br /&gt;What we saw was astonishing!&lt;br /&gt;The people who top posted were more efficient in every manner. Their speed of reading and replying to post was 20% faster since they did not have to scroll all the time to the bottom of the page, those who were new users found it more natural to top post. After each session questions was asked to each user to verify if they had comprehended the nature of the threads. It was remarkable to see that the top posting group comprehended the threads 10% better and could recall more of the information in comparison with the bottom posting group. The physiological and mental measurements also showed that the brain functioned more harmonious when top posting, and the blood pressure and heart rate were are more normal levels, showing that the users had less stress.Another measurement done was the stress placed on the hand, the so called Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Since top posting needed less movement on the hand to scroll with bars or use the scroll wheel we would see a great improvement in this area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this study I think that we have to conclude that top posting in newsgroups is better in every way, as long as they follow the simple rule to include small parts of the previous message only when needed. The previous conception that top posting would be confusing to readers since it had new information on the top and older information on the bottom, did not stand. It seems that the users who top post adapt to this very fast.&lt;br /&gt;The new windows vista that is due to be released at the beginning of 2007 will have some newsgroups pre installed in the news client, so more and more people will be using newsgroups. Fortunately the windows mail client places the cursor on top, so top posting will come naturally to more and more people. Several Linux distributions are considering modifying their news clients to confirm with our new data.&lt;br /&gt;The reason for bottom posting began when the internet was very young and slow, with low resolution screens. It is time to change the way we interact with the internet leaving the older dinosaur habits behind.I won’t be surprised to see HTML messages with embedded audio images and video be commonplace in the near future. These are all considered still forbidden in newsgroups.”&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26681934-114564476741441202?l=unbreakable-blog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26681934/posts/default/114564476741441202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26681934/posts/default/114564476741441202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://unbreakable-blog.blogspot.com/2006/04/top-posting-vs-bottom-posting-case.html' title='Top Posting Vs.
