NewsFlash:

No one buys retail anymore. Smart people buy games from STEAM when they go on sale. I got batman Arkham City for $25. No retail place had this game for that price. NOT ONE. It typically retails for $50!

So, yeah ONLINE sales are BOOMING, and this article fails to take that into account.

Also, Consoles are old, and the PC's Resurgance (Sp?) as a gaming platform is growing rapidly. Instead of paying a bunch of money on old tech, you can buy a solid videocard for $150 that will play most games at settings way prettier than an X-Box. The console manufacturers tried to ride their systems too long, we need a refresh tomorrow.

I chose to only work 8 hours a day, and spend the rest of that time w/ friends and family. Hey we all got goals, some just cost more than others.

JR is right, The ocean is already radioactive to some degree, and while fukushima lost a lot of radioactive material, it wouldn't probably even register by now.

Ejecting from a helicopter can not work. UP = Rotor blades, and at the normally very low altitude they operate at, not much time to open a chute, and downdraft from rotors pushes you into the ground if you are not high enough.

These guys fly extremely low, and close together. I see them practice near the field where I fly R/C. When you make a mistake at that altitude, there is pretty much nothing that can be done to recover. There is just not enough room.

I'm a few miles away, and it was crystal clear, bright full moon, but freezing.
