Human curiosity is indeed very important. Without that we would still live in de stone-age or something. And I agree if you say that we go into space because of our curiosity. But not the other way around. The fact that we are curious about things, doesn't mean we have to go to space. Ever been at the deepest part of the oceans? I guess not - nobody has been there. Let's first explore our own planet. Step by step we can explore space. And why shouldn't we be able to live without space exploration? No Internet, cell phones and weather forecasts. Big deal, they weren't always there. It would be hard at first, I must say. Exceptionally hard.And does helping the poor mean giving them all some money? No, that doesn't help, it's too short-term to help. We must build places where they can grow their own food, where they can work and where they have free acces to the medical world. That helps. And it doesn't cost you that much per year. Make them earn money themselves is more efficent.And don't get me wrong, I'm not against space exploration. I just don't agree with the arguments you have.

Oh my God (weird, I have none)! When I read this, I hope the Big Bang theory is correct. And I think it is. And only God knows... unless God knows nothing for he does not exist. And I believe he doesn't, so Big Bang is really appealing to me.

I think aliens do excist. Somewhere. And I don't mean martians, I think of bacterial life. Virusses and stuff. Life can only start when the conditions are right. Not too hot, not too cold, water and so on. It would be extremely co-incidental if Earth would be the only planet in the universe (with hundreds of thousands of galaxies and even more planets and stars) that could create life. But if we'll ever find those lifeforms, that I don't know. But the existance of aliens is very likely.

Of course the crazy thing is, that before the Big Bang, there was nothing. Because there was no time. At the moment of the Big Bang time started. There is no 'before the big bang'. There was absolutely nothing. Not even time, so 'before the big bang' itself doesn't even exist. What really happened is something we can't understand. It isn't right when we use our common sense. So, our common sense is wrong. When we understand what happened that caused the Big Bang, we understand how life started. That would be nice, wouldn't it? And because the universe once started, it is infinite. Just as time.

Talking to someone on the phone takes your concentration off the road. So does listening to the radio. So do other people in your car. So do billboards. I don't mind if people use a mobile phone in a car, as long as it's not their main priority. The road is the most important isuue. The guy on the other end isn't goin to die if you don't answer right away (at least, I presume). The biker that you don't see because you're listening to a joke might...

Everybody seems sure that the next big technology that will turn the world around is going to be some computer-thing. Personally I think that's going to happen, but I hope there will be something else. Something unexpected. A system that connects our brain to a computer with a chip, or even networks of every electrical device in your home. Stuff like that. However, I wouldn't mind a quantum computer either...

The problem with going at the speed of light, is that you can't. As dear mr Einstein said, anything that moves, is slowing down. And it gets smaller. A spaceship that accelerates, shrinks and deaccelerates. When it would reach the speed of light time would stop and the spaceship would disappear. That's why the speeds of light is the limit.Quantum physics is about small things, about electrones and quarks. If we would be massless, we could travel faster than light. But the problem is, if we are massless, we can't travle in the first place. I'm curious when somebody proves Einstein wrong, but I don't think I'll live to see that scientist.

I'm a fan of quantummechanics. The relativitytheory only applies to large things (the evolution of the universe and so on). And because I got the question and the answer so well, I'll remember Stephen Hawking: nobody can really understand the relativitytheory. Thank you, mr Hawking.

And I don't know why, but I forgot to mention that we have to find other fuelsources. But I am confident we will and that was mentioned before, so it's not really my fault.

I don't think there will be radical changes. Of course the computer was a huge milestone. That kind of changes are immense. So probably, the next twenty years most changes will be in fashion and music. Maybe in world-politics. But I don't think there will be heavy nucleair wars. Unless China starts playing around with atom bombs. And naturally computers and related things will be improved and such. And colonising the stars, don't think so. That is something for the 22nd of 23rd age or something.

The global warning is a natural proces. However the greenhouse-effect (broeikaseffect in Dutch, love the word) is not. It is caused by gasses that destruct the ozon-layer (I have no idea if that's spelled correctly) and they warm up Earth too quickly. I think the attitude of the US is ridiculous. This is the country with the largest industrial meaning in the world. The mayor part of CO2 is American. But what does Bush do to stop that? Absolutely nothing. The US find economics and finances more important than environment. But, basically, if you destroy the environment by earning more money than anyone, eventually there is nobody left to sell your stuff to. On the other hand, if you make less money and treat nature a bit better people can go on consuming your stuff for much longer. On the longer term, what works best? Maybe the Bush-generation only cares about making money, and not about the world and their (own) children.

A couple of months after the tsunami in Southeast Asia I read about this mega-tsunami in a Dutch magazine called Quest. I didn't really find it scary. Well, the Netherlands aren't really in the line of the tsunami, so that makes sense. I don't think you should really do anything against these kind of things. They happen. And I think all the attention to these things is a bit exaggerated. People need something to fear. That volcano that's 60 years overdue (I wouldn't be surprised if it were 600 years overdue, nature has no schedule) is going to blow anyway. Always remember that fear leads to consumption. And I'm not saying that a volcano that erupts is just tough for the people that are struck, but what are you going to do? Evacuate all places on Earth that might threaten life? In that case I hope NASA starts building a colony on Mars, soon. But nevertheless I hope the megatsunami-scenario will never really come true. That it stays a scenario.

NASA likes precautions, so it seems. After the Columbia tragedy that is. Of course it was an accident, but they shouldn't happen - not in the US. Let's hope it goes well this time. It has to, after all these cancellations, what can go wrong? Let's hope nothing can. If something would go wrong the whole world would be watching. That would be a disaster. Not only for the relatives of the crew, but also for NASA. That is why they cancelled the launch for so many times, I guess. Now let us all pray that it goed well, the 26th... In that case NASA can get back to business.

When I think of photography, I don't think of taking pictures of cakes and salades. But they look wonderful! Both the photo's and the subjects . And by the way: I'd rather eat a French salade nicoise than a German version. No offence to the Germans, btw.

Where can you get some programs or sites to make video effects? I have no experience, but it would be cool to do. And great for my site. It has to be easy to use, that's necessary.

We'll see, I guess. It's not a problem. Those guys at Microsoft have to do something. I don't think I'm going to switch to Firefox. Ie7 might be better (yeah right). But Ie works fine for me now and untill the difference gets extremely large, I won't switch.

Calm down, the XboX 360 and the Nintendo revolution are also there. And will also have good grapics and games. And because 360 is coming out first they will have an advantage. And I think the 360 will be the best (i'm an XboX fan). It will have lot of features, but i'm only hoping it will be not to expensive....but I think it will.

You played in films? Or is this only some self maded film?? Kill yourself, sounds not to good. LOL

Looks good, i've only 120gb. So, if you have money to much, i'd buy this one, but of course, there's another question: is it used before, and how good is it now then??

I played the first one only for a very short time. I played the second many times and i really liked the game. Three I never had, but played at friends house. I've never played the fourth one. Underground I played a little bit, and Underground 2 also, but I think the first ones are better. Now it's just more of the same, not new anymore.

Try to recharge the battery only when it's whole empty and charge it whole full. Especially the first 5 times or something, this is really important for the lifetime of the battery.

I've used this program, but the latest version is 2000 i think. After that microsoft didn't make another, but indeed it's ver simple to use. I liked it very much, but know i don't use it anymore.

My site is in dutch, no one said something about it, so i think it doesn't matter in wich language your site is.

I think it is difficult to make a movie out of a game, but i has to work. It looks interresting. Please remeber me when one comes out, cus i never saw one before.

Two needlers i like, but it is taking to long. Two SMG's is easy to find. Two pistols is also good. One pistol and 1 SMG works great (I only sometimes forget i have to push the button every bullet for pistol) A plasma rifle and a SMG or pistol is very good (sometimes to good).
