Partly good and partly bad.\nI learnt to type fast and improve my grammae skills (somehow), meet new & clean (not perverted friends) (I have a few friends whom I met years ago and we are still friends, HOW SWEET)\n\nA lot of perverts and I learnt  a lot of bad words from there. (but not using it)

It's a good idea but it's either been advertised really badly or they've set the date too close. This is the first I've heard of it, and it's supposed to take place tomorrow. I think the purpose of it is to show the government how many people care about this issue by a figure they can cite and read (i.e. the reduction in power usage) The trouble is that because it's been badly advertised then if nobody does it then the government may see it as an excuse that people DON'T care, when in fact they just haven't heard about it.

good and bad sex? :))))

depends on if you ask an economist or a sociologist.\n\nthe sociologist will probably say it is bad.\n\nThe economist will probably say it is a good thing.

Generally terrible for the environment, and only provides nominal power given the environmental impact, and the amount of energy put into the original project itself.\n\nI'm much more in favor of the new wind mills.  They turn slowly, so don't kill birds, and provide power about as cheaply as any coal plant can, without the pollution!

Against.\n\nThey just blew up the old power plant near me (in Oregon), and that one was only running for, like, 20 years.  I don't think we have a high demand for energy in this state, so I would be against, since it would be pointless.\n\nWe get our power from dams...the ONLY clean power. (Okay, wind too, but that doesn't count.)

Bad idea in my opinion. Too many open security issues to be a serious matter but apparently, I am in the minority for feeling this way. This project, although not shrouded in secrecy, was not given the usual fanfare of publicity something of this magnitude normally would receive. No doubt, some will claim it is part of the NWO agenda, some will claim collusion between the leaders of the three nations involved, I don't know. I do know the whole idea sounds like a colossal waste of money and resources to no good end.\n\nLinks provided for your convenience

VERY GOOD. So true, and yet so many say He let them down when it was them that told him to leave.\n\nDo not listen to these degenerates that say it is not good. Honey Hod gave you a talent use it and do not listen to nay sayers.

I agree 100% with you on this one. As a matter of fact, just the other night, the electricity went off. I woke up sweating because my A/C went off, went to get the phone in total darkness and remembered that IT NEEDS ELECTRICITY TO WORK, so I couldn't call the electric people, I would just have to wait it out. Looked around for a candle, which I don't buy for necessity and more just looks and the darn thing was burned down because I had used it the other day to make the house smell good...lol!\n\nStarted worrying about an hour later because I had to wake up from work and the alarm was not on (no electricity, remember) so I had to stay awake until it came back on, in the heat, with NO light and no phone!\n\nFor 2 hours I was lost and I didn't like it. But do you think I will be prepared for it next time, probably not :)\n\nGood Question!

By Lance Ulanoff  \nImagine a world where all your portable devices can be charged and powered simply by placing them on a desktop. Chip manufacturer MobileWise has gone well beyond imagining such a world and this week unveiled "a conductive solution" that it believes can make it all possible.\n\nDuring a mid-day press conference in chilly New York City, MobileWise showed off a handful of functioning prototype powerbases and retrofitted mobile devices that all use the company's new MobileWise chipset and enable "Wire-Free" electric power. One chip, the tiny Adapter Controller, goes inside the mobile device and the other, the Contact Controller, gets built into the power base station. These power bases, which were shown in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors, are each covered in an array of gold-plated contacts. The retrofitted mobile devices also have a pair of contracts. With properly configured handheld devices, the bases can, according to company CEO Andy Goren, change any flat surface into a charging/power station.\n\n \n \n \nThe patent-pending technology behind the MobileWise is, on the surface, quite simple. The adapter chip inside the handheld device will, when placed on a base station, receive a very small electrical signal and message from the base controller chip that will power up the adapter chip. The base controller chip will sense for polarity. If there is none (say you place your hand on the base) then it does nothing. If it does find polarity and then a signal from the adapter chip, it will then read information about the voltage level necessary to run the mobile device and begin charging and powering it. Because of the array of contacts—from dozens to hundreds, depending on base size—there's no need to place the device in a special spot or position on the base. In fact, during the demonstration we saw the bases accept multiple devices, charging and powering them all at once.\n\nThe solution is not actually entirely "wire free", however. The base station is plugged into an AC adapter and can deliver up to 30V DC to an individual device. It's also, according to Goren, completely safe, and if any charge were delivered to a person, it would be at the level of a low-voltage battery, virtually imperceptible to humans and certainly not harmful, he added. The final base units will also, he said, be waterproof and protected from electrostatic charges. \n \n \n\n\nDespite calls for MobileWise to manufacture the bases, Goren said the company plans instead on delivering the chipsets to partners who will likely build the adapter chip and proper contacts into their products and OEM the power base manufacturing to another company. MobileWise showed a variety of colors and form factors for the bases.\n\n \n \n \nAcer has already partnered with MobileWise and, according to Goren, may ship a MobileWise-enabled notebook by Q1 of next year. But MobileWise has, it seems, even more intriguing plans on the horizon. The company is already in discussion with a couple of major office furniture manufacturers to build the power array bases and controller chips into furniture. Apparently, these bases are for more than just mobile devices. Properly-equipped televisions, lamps and more could be powered by the bases—Goren even had an HDTV that worked with one of the larger ones. Later next year, MobileWise expects to add data handshake capabilities to the chipset, allowing, once the signal is split, data delivery over the same contacts.\n\nWhile no shipping units currently exist, MobileWise said the adapter chips run roughly $1.25 a piece adding, it said, just a few dollars in manufacturing costs to mobile devices and the base stations could, in units of 100,000 cost roughly $11 to manufacturers. Goren said he expects a mid-sized base (roughly 12 by 18 inches) to sell for $160 street. Not every mobile device will have to be retrofitted, by the way. MobileWise says it expects to see a ha

The energy rating of electrcal appliances is now displayed on the gizzmo.\nA being the best and e being the worst.\nTry and get one that has an A rating as it will cost less to run and will not cause the power stations to emit so much CO2

no.. is that bad ? lol

Yes power transmission lines can be harmful. I would definitely do not touch them.  Causing cancer?  Well a few more studies need to be made to prove or to disprove that.

Yes, its good.  We use it, and we don't have any problems.  We used to have cable (comcast), but they kept charging more and more, and kept giving us less and less (our service kept cutting out, and when we would call they would tell us squirrels chewed through their lines.  Yes, squirrels were always to blame.)
