DVD Player Blamed for Fatal Crash 07/27/2004 06:19 PM

Trial examines role of dashboard electronics: Interesting legal case based around the latest road tech craze.

In what may be the first trial of its kind in the nation, prosecutors have accused the pickup truck's driver of second-degree murder for watching a movie instead of the road when he crashed head-on into the Jeep. [...]

Initial Alaska State Trooper reports said Petterson was at fault when he took his eyes off the road to reach for a soda. Stein, though, will try to prove that the DVD player was on, apparently playing the movie "Road Trip."

The guy in front of me at a light the other day was playing "The Lion King." I got to see the Simba and Scar duke it out before the light went green.

Bacteria blamed for Bermuda Triangle


Bacteria blamed for Bermuda Triangle 06/17/2005 03:34 PM
David Pescovitz: Scientists at Cardiff University are studying whether bacteria that thrive in the high pressures of deep ocean sediments could be a source of sustainable energy. Some of the bacteria spew methane that accumulates in massive fields of ice-like "methane hydrates." Methane hydrates might also be the secret behind an old mystery. From the press release:
Triangle One theory now suggests that when the covering of "methane ice" which exists over much of the seabed of the Bermuda Triangle becomes unstable; this causes instability of the sea and an explosive mixture of air and methane above. Any ships or planes travelling over the area could sink or catch fire.

"So ancient, deep-sediment bacteria may be a key to sustainable energy in the future and to explaining a few disasters," said Professor (R. John) Parkes.

Road Trip USA. This simply titled site is one of the better travel sites I have seen for back-road ramblings around the USA. Not only are the routes described some of the best, the writing is extensive (at least book length), of high quality and obviously by someone who has traveled every single mile personally. I only wish I had it on my last trip. Recommended for the arm-chair or car-seat traveler alike.

Cingular Not Guilty In
Driving-While-Yakking Crash
06/04/2004 11:25 PM
There's a great old Bloom County strip where the the lawyer character, Steve Dallas, gets beaten up by Sean Penn for trying to snap a paparazzi style photo of a drunk Penn. The strip focuses on Steve Dallas trying to figure out "who to sue?" He goes through a variety of options and explains why they're no good ("never sue poor people") and finally decides that the obvious choice is to sue Nikon, the camera maker, for not putting a warning label on their cameras that photographing drunken celebrities may lead to harm. This story comes to mind following the news that a woman has sued Cingular, the mobile phone company, after a driver hit her car while talking on his mobile phone. She also sued the driver of the car, but hoped to get the big money from the wireless carrier. Even more amazing is that after losing in a lower court, she appealed thinking that higher level judges would somehow accept her reasoning. Thankfully, they didn't. The Court of Appeals has tossed out the case as well: "A cellular phone does not cause a driver to wreck a car. Rather, it is the driver's inattention while using the phone that may cause an accident."

First it was people complaining that kids watching DVDs in the backseat were killing the spirit of the "family road trip," but now you don't even need a fancy expensive in-car entertainment system to lose out on all the joy of family bonding (fighting) in the car. Textuall y is pointing to a story saying that kids in the UK spend a good portion of time text messaging their friends during road trips. They also prefer to listen to music, rather than actually talk with their family, but I imagine that's been true since the walkman first came on the scene.

The ability to make an emergency call has been given as the top reason for taking a cell phone when traveling, according to a survey by Mobal, the international phone company. Mobal conducted the survey of its customers after reporting an 80% increase in international cell phone purchase during 2004, and believe the results show that US citizens, although still concerned with global instabilities, are increasingly confident to travel internationally.
