About me
I am a married, twenty-something techno-junkie. I adore video games, computers, and all the new tech gadgets. I am also an avid reader and history buff.

I am a dog person, like coffee and tea equally, dislike Coke and Pepsi equally, and like my martinis dry and with gin.

I'm into fantasy, sci-fi and horror, love comic books and prefer movies that mess with your mind. I am a bit of a dork, but am also a bit of a fashionista.
Why I use Clipmarks
I love sharing what I read with others, and finding out what people think of it. It's great to get others' takes on news and photos. I also love seeing what others find interesting.

Religion in Space

 This raises some interesting questions. i can't say I've seen these sort of problems addressed in any of the sci-fi books I've read. How people of all faiths solve dilemmas like this will be interesting to watch for.

 I'm interested to see what you all have to say about this. Do you think this would work on a larger scale, or is this the sort of thing that is only feasible in small communities?

Brain to Control Games Directly, Maybe Vice Versa
Caleythia
by Caleythia  9-5-2007   
 More info at the source. I find this really, really cool. However, as much as I love video games, it seems like a waste. I can only imagine what they can do with this technology (aside from using it to help quadriplegics, as it explains in the article), and it just seems frivolous to use it for video games. What do you all think?

Human-animal Embryo Ruling Due
Caleythia
by Caleythia  9-5-2007   
 I'm of two minds on this. I'm all for research of this sort, especially for such a devastating disease as Parkinson's. On the other hand, this freaks me out in an Island of Dr. Moreau sort of way. Perhaps I've just read too much sci-fi.

 I could see it working as a niche kind of thing, especially if you just want a quick bite at a quirky place. But, in general, I'll keep my waiters and waitresses, thanks.

 I guess I'm hardly typical, according to the poll. I read 4 books a month, if not more. Where does everyone else here fall?

Ridley Scott to Make Monopoly Movie
Caleythia
by Caleythia  8-9-2007    1
 Scott was the director of Alien, Gladiator and Hannibal, among others. I wonder how his experience with gritty, serious movies will translate to Monopoly. he claims it will be family friendly. The whole idea i just odd.

New Study Finds Why Skinny People Don't Like Fat People
Caleythia
by Caleythia  8-1-2007    1
 I don't buy it at all. Most people don't have a natural tendency to mock or make fun of visiblly ill people, and wouldn't that be the case if what these researchers say is true. This just strikes me as a justification for prejudice against and the unfair treatment of the overweight. "It's not my fault I made fun of Bill. It's my brain."

Office Printers are "Health Risk"
Caleythia
by Caleythia  7-31-2007   
 It's pretty much a given: on any given day, some news source will have an article about what scientists have just discovered is bad for us. Apparently, office equipment won't be spared this treatment. I do wonder if I can use this at my office. "I'm sorry, I can't print out your 200 page manuscript for you. It's bad for my lungs." I don't think my boss would go for it.
