thread_title: hippie crack

message: The CDC issued an alert in 1994 entitled "Controlling Exposures to Nitrous Oxide During Anesthetic Administration" .  It warns:
:NIOSH concluded in 1977 that exposure to N2O causes decreases in mental performance, audiovisual ability, and manual dexterity [NIOSH 1977b]. A recent study of workers [Rowland et al. 1992] and several experimental animal studies [Corbett et al. 1973; Vieira 1979; Vieira et al. 1980, 1983] indicate that adverse reproductive effects may also result from chronic exposure to N2O.
and also
:Animal studies have shown adverse reproductive effects in female rats exposed to airborne concentrations of N2O [Corbett et al.1973; Vieira 1979; Vieira et al. 1980, 1983]. Data from these studies indicate that exposure to N2O during gestation can produce adverse health effects in the offspring.
:Several studies of workers have shown that occupational exposure to N2O causes adverse effects such as reduced fertility [Rowland et al. 1992], spontaneous abortions, and neurologic, renal, and liver disease [Cohen et al. 1980].
Is this still up-to-date with today's knowledge on the dangers of N2O?  If so, the article should be updated to reflect that. — ciphergoth 16:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Nikolay Bogolyubov

message: Isn't he also known for the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov hamiltonian? I am not an expert in the field, I think it is broadly used in the context of theoretical nuclear physics. It is starting to get introduced in the field of quantum chemistry, as a solution of an RPA-like equation. It is one kind of energy density functional.

message: i read this : "There are multiple sites of hybridisation between the species Mytilus edulis, M. trossulus and M. galloprovincialis across the Atlantic, Scandinavian and the Mediterranean Seas as shown in Figure 2." ... and then i thought all this article could be in copyright infringement. What figure? There are no pictures... it is possible someone simply cut and paste this text or copied this text.
: I wrote this entire article for a university literature review on hybrid zones. It is substantially more accurate than what was here before. I made up some figures for it which I have not added to the article, so that needs to be corrected.

message: Can someone provide an inline citation or clarification for the statement "Hybrid zones are relatively rare"?  Does this just refer to animals, or plants too? In plants, hybrids between what are generally called species are very common, often related to polyploidy (some of these so-called "hybrids" are probably species by many definitions although that isn't always known).  You can see some examples at Oak or Chelone, but I'm kind of over my head in terms of keeping up with what is an active area of research, and whether "hybrid zone" is intended to relate to all cases of hybrids in the wild or only certain situations.

replies: text: That's not inconsistent. Wilson was commissioned into the East Surreys but spent periods on secondment to the King's African Rifles and the Somaliland Camel Corps. There is no formal link between the East Surreys and the Camel Corps so one would not expect the former to be mentioned in the article about the latter (or vice versa).

Talk:Randomized binary search tree

message: Implementing randomized binary search trees as treaps is a bit of overkill.  I learned to make them by simply calculating the odds that the element being inserted would be a root in a random binary tree of that size that was randomly arranged (i.e. 1/number_of_nodes), checking that against a random number and inserting at the root 1/nth of the time, otherwise doing that whole procedure again at the appropriate child.  
It requires generating some more random numbers, and I'm not sure off the top of my head whether the inserting at root is equivalent to rotating into place, but it saves you keeping track of priorities. LWizard @ 10:03, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Open Software License

message: Just a few questions...
How does a programmer or user make money from open source software, and if they do who from? I have used programs that claim to be open sourced, such as limewire, but often the reason the software is free is because the original programmers have added adverts obviously to make money.
I understand the ideology of a free internet. I can also understand all the benefits of having adapted programmes that a user has customised himself for his computer, but who really benefits from this OSL and does this mean that adverts and pop-ups and all those nasty things that infect my computer will be a thing of the past, just because people would rather just give their product away?
Any thoughts would greatly be appreciated.

thread_title: Making money with [[free software]]

message: This article should acknowledge that the licence has an AGPL-like effect, in that it deems access over a network to be equivalent to distribution.
The section on 'and any later version' is incorrect - a copyright owner cannot violate a license s/he grants (especially if the licence is not a contractual one). It's probably not a good idea to modify the text of the license itself, but a preamble saying 'this code is licensed under Open Software License version [] and any later version' is fine (assuming the licensor owns all the copyrights - if not, we are in to a standard license compatibility enquiry).

replies: text: Oppose.  Someone looking for information on what a TFR was wouldn't necessarily go to the FAR page; I think having them distinct makes sense.  In addition, this article needs to be expanded; TFRs can be over sporting events, air shows, military operations, etc., not just over the president; it's the ones that limit general aviation anywhere need the president that are the most controversial.--Justfred 17:06, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Also object to merge for several reasons. The FAR article does not include ANY specific descriptions of FARs; it provides an overview of the FARs with links to appropriate articles as details are added. Secondly, as a Homeland Security issue, the concept of TFRs are (in some sense) larger than the FAA regulatory vehicle that supports them, and merit their own discussion as such. Finally, TFRs also join the list of other special use airspace articles, such as Military Operations Area, restricted airspace, prohibited airspace, etc. I would also like this article expanded, and some attempt made to more thoroughly wikify aviation concepts in the FAR article. Lupinelawyer 02:46, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Oppose. A TFR is a completely separate item, simply defined within the FARs. It is a needed sub-article, and a separate subject. There are far too many items/regulations within the FAR to cover in one article. AuburnPilottalk 21:20, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:South Molton (UK Parliament constituency)

message: The sources appear to conflict about when this constituency was abolished.
Rayment says in his MPs listing for the constituency that the Liberal MP George Lambert, 1st Viscount Lambert was re-elected at the 1945 general election and served until the constituency's abolition in 1950, but his entry for Lambert in his list of peers says that Lambert was ennobled on 23 Jul 1945, three weeks after the general election.
I have in front of me a copy of F. W. S. Craig's British Electoral Facts 1832-1980, which lists no by-election for South Molton — and if Lambert had been re-elected before being ennobled, there would have been one.
The wikipedia page MPs elected in the United Kingdom general election, 1945 says that Molton was re-elected in 1945, and lists no by-election.  The List of former United Kingdom Parliamentary constituencies includes South Molton under the 1950 abolitions.
Does anyone have any other sources which might help unravel this? --BrownHairedGirl (talk)  • (contribs) 10:36, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

:Unfortunately, Silva gets neither recent politics nor old history right. These days, spy novels get cred from reflecting both and then undermining 'received wisdom'. Since "The Marching Season" fails on both counts, it seems a little less interesting right from the beginning. The political faux-pas: the IRA is NOT the Provisional IRA - these are/were the Provos, militant radicals with a relationship to the IRA that needs chapters to explain. The historical faux-pas: when Cromwell came to Ireland, he came with LowLanders, not HighLanders. The Highlanders were/are Catholic, came from Ireland, and no friends of Cromwell. If Silva can't get simple facts straight, his stories become idle fantasies, no??
