When it comes to the television show, it’s up to Bormanis to make sure the science makes sense — or at least doesn’t make nonsense. “We can be forgiven a little bit of dramatic license,” he said, “but I don’t think we should fall back on that as an excuse.”

*Glances at the massively defended Sd.net boarder, which makes the West wall crossed with the Korean DMZ look like a hastily established outpost line*

Let them come!

Hey, notice how they linked without Mike's permission, used his site for their article without permission or acknowledgement, etc. etc.

I have a full team of lawyers ready. We can deploy in 36 hours.

Yeah, I was just thinking about that.

Seems like a rather amature author to do something like that.

Then again, CNN once made an off-site link to one of those "devil in the dust clouds of the WTC", and the home site got so many hits (like many thousands a day) and CNN and the other news services didn't respond to his requests to either take down the link or put it on their own servers. He eventually changed the file to the Goatsex (or whatever) pic, and the news servers got flooded with complaints.
