    They already have this in most Iranian villages- when someone wants to "look up" a bit of information, he throws a rock at the tent next to him and shouts his query. That guy then tries to remember the answer. If he does't know, he then throws a rock at the tent next to his. Eventually the answer gets found, and the original searcher beats his wife, and goes back to sleep.

    And there was a time when Iran was actually a more secular country and more open to democratic ideas. However, a revolution happened there, and all of that changed. If I remember history correctly, Iran was taken over by Islamic extremists when Reagan was President. Wasn't there a scandal that had to do with American hostages held in Iran when Reagan was President?

    Edit: okay, I just read in Wikipedia that the Iranian revolution happened in 1979, which means Carter was President at that time.

    Good for them. So I guess it will pause 5 times a day, only 1/10 of your screen is visible and if you try anything funny it will blow up your screen?
