I believe coolface is one of those things that goes well with anything. Coolface would look good on anyone, even Hitler. Very Happy

PS: That was a subtle hint, because I dont think I have ever seen a coolface Hitler.

Saw something on this recently on the Discovery Channel.

This young guy (now a gazillionaire) was using a IM program (I think ICQ) and instead of writing 'Provocative Smile' or something to that effect, he came up with what is now called Emoticons.

I think he's the dickhead that came up with those things when you sign up for something (say Hotmail) and you have to enter the characters that are fucked up. Rich fuckin nerd.
Tho those words are actually words from papers, books etc from 100-300 or more years ago that can't be translated because whoever does that shit can't make em out and come to a concencus (sp) about it. So they put it on the web and if say 2000 ppl identify the word, then its logged and incorporated into whatever text....so far they have figured out like 100 million words or something....

Like i said, a gazillionaire nerd....

Naw man....something on people leading the way in science. There was the guy I talked about and this Indian woman who was the first to clone liver cells in a lab and keep them alive for like 12 hours and have them divided. She's a leader in the field of replacement organs and fake limbs and shit. Really cool. She's Canadian (like most medical sciencetists ....really, a lot of medical break through's come from Canadian Medicine) and I think she has her own lab at MIT.

It may have been on PBS come to think of it. Possibly on the "Nova" show. The one geared for adults. Not the one "Nova science now" thats geared more towards kids (but fuckin cool none the less).
Come to think of it, I think it was on Nova on PBS. Try checking their site....pbs.org or some shit
