I am all for saving or incorporating the tree into the design, but I really cant get over how boring and plain this new dorm looks.

"The definition of life has just expanded,"(NASA website) Yes very exciting, but your comment that humans have NEVER found anything like this is totally wrong. All other findings concerning the diversity of life and its structure pale in comparison to this according to your statement.

So discovering a new bacteria that can substitute an element for growth opens up new possibilities concerning life as we understand it, it doesn't hold ground in excitement against ANY type of extraterrestrial life discovery. Searching caves and deep sea environments often turn up new and complex ways life has adapted in harsh environments, and this just adds to those previous findings...SO to answer your question, NO, "alien" life forms found on this planet are not nearly as exciting because we have found many "alien" life forms before this. I am not saying this discovery isn't exciting/important!

I really wish I would have listened to them when I was a teenager and they were actually on the air...

Have paid a little attention to what both have been doing since then, but nothing will ever compete with what they had together on the radio...mahalo Mon, 29 Nov 2010 20:17:03 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/entertainment/110988714.html#IDComment112719024 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/109927879.html#IDComment111298871 Wow, 180 is a lot of people...

I am not downplaying the actions and skills of the Qantas crew, just stating an opinion. Great Job by them and I am sure they are getting TONS of thanks from not only the passengers but also Airbus and Qantas. Not hating on Airbus but as always; GO BOEING Thu, 18 Nov 2010 20:35:23 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/109004849.html#IDComment110471280 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/108458094.html#IDComment110106264 ya I was worried about that...too late to edit!

And i only believe what the CEO is saying because I believe he is correct, Airbus had NO part in designing the compressor disk that looks to have failed...So if anything it will come down to maintenance with Qantas/RR. But once again in my opinion the engine is WAY to new to be anything but a design flaw or manufacturing defect, which both come down on RR.

"This is an engine issue and the engines have been maintained by Rolls-Royce since they were installed on the aircraft," What is your argument against airbus now that the customer is blaming RR? Fri, 5 Nov 2010 16:29:02 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/106762278.html#IDComment108015284 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/106686973.html#IDComment107822664 NO! Boeing engineers designed those wings, Mitsubishi only built them, So if there is a problem It will either be blamed on engineering or a manufacturing defect. Boeing also has a huge quality control system in place. The complexity of a jet engine does not allow airbus or Boeing to have a team to reverse engineer every aspect of every engine that is bolted to their planes. You should just as quickly be blaming Qantas, they chose RR, they could have gone engine alliance like Emirates, but they wanted rolls just like their 747s. the problem is that you arent accepting that the airframe and engines are SEPARATE! Of course airbus will be down there troubleshooting, but this is a ROLLS ROYCE problem. This inst a car where some oem part goes bad, these are two separate huge engineering marvels working in tandem. So yes, airbus will be helping solve the problem but it is not a 'Airbus problem". If it were Any other system on the plane it would fall only on them because those systems are under there direct engineering control! Go watch the PBS documentary on making the 777 and you will better understand the relationship between the customer, airframe manufacture and engine builder, because obviously you don't know how it works.
