So here&#8217;s one that&#8217;s merely useful in a day-to-day shopping kind of way: PC Magazine says Verizon 4G is the fastest wireless network pretty much anywhere you go in the U.S. &#160; Problem [...]]]></description>

Driven by the world wide energy crisis, science is taking the contribution of window glass to whole new heat. General Electric singled out Pythagoras Solar this week for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are approximately two billion children (persons under 18) in the world. However, since Santa does not usually visit children of families who do not celebrate Christmas so this reduces the workload for Christmas night to 15% of the total, or 378 million (according to the population reference bureau).

Bill Fraser has been closely [...]]]></description>

All bivalves (oysters, clams, quahogs etc.) grow their calcium-carbonate shells in yearly increments, creating tree-ring like growth marks.  Embedded in each year&#8217;s addition are traces [...]]]></description>
