This doesn't come as a surprise on any level:

SP2: That'll cut bandwith issues.  Of course, it would be better by far if colleges would block everything but port 80 and two FTP ports.

Webcam virus: About time people started creating virii with a sense of humor in mind.  good thing mine has a cover

Iran: Yup, wait 'till that happens here.

The CS department would cry if 22/23 weren't open. :p
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman
