On November 6th 2002 an object twice the size of Pluto was discovered by NASA's Near Earth Asteroid Tracking. A space snowball, C/2002 V1, or Comet NEAT.
NEAT went on its merry way, heading towards our sun and around Feb 18, 2003, got as close as it was going to get, resulting in some great pics.
As NEAT approached our sun, there were a couple massive solar flares that reached out towards NEAT, possibly changing its course, possibly breaking it up. No one really new if NEAT would continue or be sucked into the sun.
The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory "SOHO" satellite watched the whole thing.
Then SOHO went offline for 7 hours.

Scienticians have finally proven they exist for a positive reason.
Most everyone here at Satano-central likes to imbibe. Daily, usually. Myself, I enjoy between 3 and 5 adult beverages per evening. Sometimes more, but that's about my standard. To teetotalers, I would seem like a hopeless drunk. Nevermind the website, the job, the friends, to them I'm just a drunk.
But now, friends, I can truthfully tell them that I'm just being healthy.

We were discussing exactly how big a kilo of cocaine is on #satanosphere on slashnet when I discovered the Cocaine, Inc. website. The more interesting read, however, is the Columbian Cartel's use of technology in the smuggling of Cocaine into the United States.
It's something I've heard before, and after reading the article, it makes perfect sense. Why not have a supercomputer containing a database of all of your 'employees' to cross check to find informants. Why not have your own submarines to smuggle your merchandise.
So, the next time you're lining up that coke, or taking a hit off of that glass dick. Think about the technology that brought it to you!
By the way. How big IS a kilo of coke?

Remember those images in the 1950s that hopeful scientists and dreamers made about what life in the year 2000 would be like... flying cars and clean gleaming cities? None of it happened, of course. Yet.
The SkyCar is coming. Last night, Art Bell interviewed the creator of this amazing machine.
Poll.

Mad Scientists Going Mad
In theaters this summer is "Austin Powers in Goldmember", where we have not one but two mad scientists trying to take over the world. We all love mad scientists. Without them there'd be no one to make Superheroes Super, and if you thought they were just for comics, you're wrong.
These days, mad scientists aren't the "supervillians" they used to be. Instead of plots of Global Power, they tend to work on genetics, apparently in a ploy to give us all the heeby-jeebies. Here's a collection of recent mad science and the people who brought it to us. Update [2002-8-21 11:4:54 by matt]: Ah, hell. Let's throw in a very politically-incorrect poll!
