To slow global warming, install white roofs - Los Angeles Times - http://www.latimes.com/news...
"To slow global warming, install white roofs Such roofs and reflective pavement in the world's 100 largest cities would have a massive cooling effect, according to data released at California's annual Climate Change Research Conference." - Michael Muller
hmmmmm... what's the environmental impact of white paint? - Ryan

Casey, he only sleeps half an hour at a time.....sounds like a plan for you. - Michael Muller
Is this the interview you meant Papa? http://www.wie.org/j40... - Casey Muller
"Mike Myers made this silly but very funny movie called The Love Guru, which is coming out in June. It’s about this guy who wants to be Deepak Chopra. Mike wanted me to make a five-minute cameo appearance, so I went to do that. But then suddenly when I was doing that, I realized, he’s doing a parody of me, so I should do a parody of him." - Casey Muller

I really miss having access to the "how to build (almost) anything" machine shop. - Casey Muller
Casey - you know about http://techshop.ws/, right? I've never used it, but I know people who have; apparently, they're inexpensive, have old (but well maintained) machinery, but they'll do the job. - Tudor Bosman
Tudor - Yeah, I've been meaning to check it out. It looks great but I've heard the classes are long and you have to take one for each machine even if you're experienced on it. - Casey Muller

FriendFeed is Google Bait + 23 Great Ways to use it - http://www.inquisitr.com/2287...
"Social aggregator and sharing platform FriendFeed is rocking the first adopter community and is continuing to grow. The debate is still on as to whether it will translate to the mainstream, but all indicators have it heading in that direction." - Michael Muller
Improving people's lives, one device at a time - MIT News Office - http://web.mit.edu/newsoff...
"Using a bicycle wheel to thresh millet, making LEGO-like bricks from dirt, or hooking up an electric generator to an irrigation pump may not save the world, but such simple projects could go a long way toward improving the lives of millions of people living in the world's developing countries. That's the guiding principle behind a month-long summer workshop at MIT that wrapped up today. Its goal was to develop simple, inexpensive devices that can make a real difference for people and communities" - Michael Muller
Another (older) NYT Magazne profile: http://www.nytimes.com/2003... Even though she occupies (from what I tell at least) the forefront of this type of research and design in an institutional context, MIT will only give her the title of 'lecturer' because she never cared to spend six more years to get her Ph.D. -- academia is a weird place. - sara

My main problem with the Eye-fone is the price per month. For $100 a month we have four people with four phones on a national plan with free calls between the phones. Isn't it $70 monthy for the Eye? - Michael Muller
And the great allure of e-ink is that hard screens can go away to be replaced by a nice soft piece of paper or cloth information device. More cosy! - Michael Muller

"Beautiful umbrella-store clerk Genevieve (Catherine Deneuve) and charming gas station attendant Guy (Nino Castelnuovo) fall in love in the rainy coastal town of Cherbourg, but their romance is cut short when Guy is drafted into the army in this singular cinematic classic. French director Jacques Demy's musical love story is an explosion of color and emotion, in which every word of dialogue is sung to melodies of beloved composer Michel Legrand. Starring: Nino Castelnuovo, Catherine Deneuve Director: Jacques Demy Genre: Foreign Format: Widescreen ... Language: French Subtitles: English Awards: Academy Award® Nominee ..." - Michael Muller
Made in 1964, this movie is utterly beautiful. Catherine Deneuve was 19 years old. - Michael Muller

5. Evil plastic bags. Take it from the Environmental Protection Agency : paper bags are not better for the environment than plastic bags. If anything, the evidence from life-cycle analyses favors plastic bags. They require much less energy — and greenhouse emissions — to manufacture, ship and recycle. They generate less air and water pollution. And they take up much less space in landfills. - Michael Muller
