Buffalo's Silent Mouse Keeps Your Wife From Leaving (Dec 20 2006 23:55 GMT) - Back when we were living in a one bedroom/living room/kitchen dump, our wives would always complain about the keyboard and mouse noise keeping them up at night. Or waking them up in the morning. Or bothering them while they were listening to music. Come to think of it, they probably just wanted a divorce. Nevertheless, Buffalo's silent mouse, which probably uses a similar technology to Thanko's, would have come in handy back then, if just to give them one less thing they could harp on. |

bog book (Dec 20 2006 23:37 GMT) - "Peat bogs provide excellent conditions for the preservation of organic remains-a fact probably known in the early ninth century, when the psalter would have been hidden at Faddan More. This is due to the low level of oxygen and the presence of an antibiotic substance called sphagnum in the peat. Sphagnum binds with proteins on the surface of micro-organisms, immobilising them and causing organic material to undergo chemical changes that makes it impervious to rot." bog book |
