Musical Pirates

During the last year, hundreds of music lovers were facing lauwsuits for copyrighting infringement over the internet. It's now the same song, different tune...lawyers were getting court orders  from users from IPs. Those names would determine who to file suit against. So, now, the music industry is using the so-called "john doe" process to sue defendants without even knowing their names. Here's how it works: the lawsuits identify defendants by their IP address, wich is unique  number assinged to each computer while its user is online. Once the suits are filed, record lables get the information from ISPS that would identify users by their own names.

                   Now do you want to steal music? Why or Why not?

Spirit Goes Up and Up

   Do you know how long Spirit was in space whem it landed on Mars?

 On  January 3, 2004 the rover Spirit landed on Mars right about at its target. Spirit is the size of a golf cart and has to take pictures and send them down to Earth, but there is no way for it to get back to earth but thanks to technology Spirit can take pictures and send them from where it is. It is concealed on at Mars's red dust for however log it exists. What NASA is trying to figure out is if homosapeans/ humans can get on the planet and do their own research in person. Do you want to know the answer to the question? Spirit was in space for about 2 months.
