Start out with your zeppelin full of hydrogen. Feed the hydrogen into the fusion reactor to produce power to run the engines. Feed the resulting helium back into the gas cells to maintain buoyancy.

The placebo effect doesn't work on me. I'm too skeptical of everything.

the problem had persisted for years and had not responded to various drugs and a year of physical therapy providing plenty of time to heal on its own and for the placebo effect to kick in.

You know, where you can buy jacks and stuff.

Not voice recog, brain recog. 50 years from now we'll be using 6th gen languages that simply respond to thought patterns through the transceivers implanted in our skulls at birth.

I think the use of core rope memory for program storage was fascinating. I guess you really have to be sure of your code. That kind of commitment is kinda scary. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_rope_memory

I think the people most likely to cause an accident are the ones most likely to talk on their mobile phones whilst driving. These people would be more likely to cause an accident even whilst not on their mobiles because they don't take driving seriously.
