KeymasterHm. I just realized that I've been in that room. Numerous times.

KeymasterThe King must be spinning in his grave!
But at least he'll have a woody while he's spinning.

KeymasterThere's some javascript at the bottom of the page, including a couple site metrics trackers and Eurekster's Swicki. It runs fine on IE7, so you might want to upgrade.

KeymasterMore seriously, I wonder if these new nails will work in current nail guns and so on. If not, their acceptance may be slower than you'd like. Ingenuity can solve a lot of problems, but maybe the problem is the presumption that the way to go is to resist the wind. I wasn't kidding about making houses that fall apart easily. Japan traditionally has built houses that are cheap to repair and can easily slide around on their foundations (for earthquakes). Like the US's east coast, Japan gets its share of typhoons. Paper and wood are easy to fix. Maybe some kind of modular construction can be invented so that the house breaks up into easy pieces under extreme stress. The playskool school of architecture, perhaps.
I think they were built to work in most nailguns. That was one of the design limitations.
Anyway, it looks like Jamaica was spared the worst – the eye passed somewhat south of Jamaica's shore. There will still be tremendous damage, but not the wholesale apocalyptic devastation that would have occurred if Dean had hit the island straight on. Next it looks like it's the Yucatan's turn, because the Caymans are north of the apparent path.

KeymasterWell…… I guess that's pretty close to the last thing I ever expected to see. I laughed. Anyone care to break down what a lolcat is?
Not really, but you can check here: http://lolcat.com
