Since all you boys and girls watch Star Trek: "Physicists Nicolae Nicorovici from the University of Sydney, Australia, and Graeme Milton, from the University of Utah, have proposed that devices called superlenses could be used to create a type of cloaking device. Using a principle called 'anomalous localized resonance', superlenses placed very close to a small object could mask its reflected light waves by resonating at the same frequency, much like how noise-canceling headphones mask sound waves by creating a sound that is at the same frequency but inverted in phase."

So why is this on OS News again?
Because we as the staff want it to. Contrary to what you seem to think, you do not own OSNews. David Adams does, and he made me responsible for the news. In other words, it is my say what gets up here, and if it's up here, it belongs here. I decide what is worthy of OSNews, not you. Period, end of discussion.

That's fine, I never said you weren't entitled to posting any news you wanted on this site.
Contrary to what you seem to think, you do not own OSNews.
Don't you tell me what I'm thinking Mr.
David Adams does, and he made me responsible for the news.
Yes and responsible for what you post too.
In other words, it is my say what gets up here, and if it's up here, it belongs here.
This might be true in your opinion, but may not apply to your readers.
I decide what is worthy of OSNews, not you. Period, end of discussion.
Not quite. You don't decide what is worthy for me. You might not think you owe your readers something, but they do add wealth to your site and look at your ads. So I think what you owe me, at a minimum, is some courtesy, because you did offend me and were rude. Your page with the statement about site content does NOT mention scientific news as possible content. If I want that, I'll go to slashdot. I fail to understand how your readers criticising your content gives you license to be rude to them. Now the discussion is over.

Are you always this arrogant and rude? With that logic you could justify putting up news about fall fashions. Perhaps David Adams should reconsider his decision; if I owned the site I certainly wouldn't want someone with that attitude in charge of anything. It just seems to me a site called OS news should be about, well, OS news.

This has nothing to do with computing... unless you are using a computer to calculate the waves...
