Sometimes I missplace my keys too
This is too funny.

The Energy Department is conducting a widespread review of security at America's nuclear weapons laboratories after reports of hundreds of missing keys, some of which could allow access to sensitive areas.

Sources tell CBS News that lock and key experts will begin visiting all U.S. nuclear labs next month to assess the problem of missing keys and apparent security lapses, reports CBS News Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson.

The review follows reports last summer that a government facility known by its World War II code name "Y-12" had reported "a number" of keys missing.

In fact, 200 keys were missing.

Maybe the big ISP knows that no one pays $20 for dial up
Time Warner Inc.'s America Online unit has launched a preliminary version of a lower-priced Internet service it can pitch to penny pinchers who call to drop the flagship service for a cheaper rival.
The modem dial-up service, which debuted earlier this month under AOL's Netscape brand, costs $1 per month until the end of February, according to details on its Web site. It will cost subscribers $9.95 a month beginning in March, compared to $23.95 a month for the full-fledged AOL service.
The new service is a stripped-down and lower-cost version of AOL's flagship service, minus extras such as original programming and high speed Internet music videos.
America Online is offering current subscribers a cheaper alternative after watching millions of irate subscribers flee to lower cost competitors such as the Juno and NetZero services owned by United Online Inc.
In the third quarter alone, AOL lost 688,000 subscribers, or 2 million on a year over year basis.
"At the end of the day, the AOL service just costs too much," said Mark May, an analyst at Kaufman Brothers. "AOL has estimated 10 to 15 percent of the customer that called to disconnect cite price as a reason."
He added, "The Netscape product attempts to address that user."
Time Warner shares lost 8 cents at $17.90 on the New York Stock Exchange.

Communication breakdown threatens VoIP

I hope people don't go to get VOIP from other companies. Use Vonage or Talkpro.net. If you use one of the other companies, VOIP might get taxed or price regulation. Stay away from Cox, Time Warner, ATT or Sprint. Stay with Vonage or Avaya or Talkpro.net.

As cable and telephone companies begin offering Net telephony services to consumers in earnest, complications on the back end threaten to crimp cost savings for providers and ultimately dampen expectations for the much-hyped technology."
