:p

Sean - the pic made me LOL, BUT - For the love of god it's called a "Gigawatt" - I know it's not your fault, but if we are ever to switch over to the metric system, spelling it correctly would be nice.

With that said, pronouncing it "Jig-a-wats" is the norm.

Every scientist will tell you that, "this experiment" or "that experiment" is important. Some think the Hubble space telescope is man's best achievement. Other think that the human Genome Project is. But, this thing they built, that, after many physics classes, I barely understand - has the power to change how we look at everything. /end rant.

That's how I felt about the info JPL/Mars Lander project was going to bring to the science world. But they sealed it as it looks. We were supposed to have heard the groundbreaking second chunk of their primary findings. I will agree, a large chunk of science will face a second, deeper inspection, and may disprove/prove a great google of theories.

Needs more jigga watts.
