Reason to go to the moon? Helium-3 enough of a reason for you? How about Titanium? Lol, there are enough minerals up on the moon to satisfy our energy and manufacturing needs for thousands of years. Do we have the technology to utilize it? No, and we won't unless we develop it because it won't materialize out of thin air in a vacuum of effort.

@16, No they want to ban research into DNA.

@5,

As a Nanotech Engineering Student, nope not afraid of it one bit. I'm much more worried about Laptop nukes which will be made possible with Nano-energetics. Or how about Conventional explosives with the power of a Nuclear weapon? The Father of all Bombs was what fraction the power of Hiroshima?

@wolfrider

You also missed the point as well. I'm saying that Ma Bell distinguishes for some reason. I guess it's the overhead of torrent traffic that they hate.

@wolfrider

1. I live in Toronto, Canada and the weather for most of the year is less then ideal so I spend a lot of time inside.

2. I listen to A LOT of music on Youtube and I have it set to never keep a cache due to a severe shortage of disk space.

It's actually about 50 to 60 hours of music videos a week so I exaggerated a bit, but not by much.

@wolfrider,

I can easily blow through 30 Gigs in a week just by browsing Youtube.

Man I wish ma bell did this back when I had a 50 GB/Month download limit. Now I have unlimited and they just shape me to death when I go over 30 GBs of Bittorrent downloading. They don't shape my Youtube traffic though. Something like this would have saved me hundreds of dollars...

If you have a Mon-Fri 9/5 job and 2 and 1/2 kids these little time savers are worth much much more.
