I'm somehow reminded of Brian Regan's standup routine:
"I before e....always"
"No, Brian. It's i before e except after c and when sounding like a as in neighbor and weigh, and on weekends and holidays and all throughout May, and you'll always be wrong no matter what you say!" - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9don't forget neighbor
- cannibaljp, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7spelling = hard.
too much time stargazing? - kb0x, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5i logged in just so i could tell people i logged in...
Logged in guys..... As you were. - mcraigw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Digg Spell Checker: Yeah... it's that button that says "Check Spelling" on it.
You must believe that [i] usually comes before [e] except after [c] or when it is pronounced like "a" as "neighbor" and "weigh" or "e" as in "their" and "heir." (The "i-before-e" rule has more exceptions than words it applies to.)

- jun2san, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4There was a better photo of Jupiter posted on digg recently. This one seems lame in comparison.
Here's that link:

- flipmeat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4And you don't stop. You keep on eatin' cars.
- mildgreenfairy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Or weight. Or height.
This could run and run.
Or not. - flipmeat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3That's the difference between taking a picture of Jupiter while orbiting around Jupiter, and a picture taken from Mars orbit.
New pictures from space are cool, pictures from space taken just the other day, most excellent. - idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3...It's looking at me...
- gostars, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I was hoping for more of a naked eye view. Something with "zoom" about equal to the human eye. I'll have to agree with the 1st poster.
- gummih, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Has this telescope been used to take pictures of earth? the distance to earth from mars is considerably shorter
- gummih, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Google is my friend :o)
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/05/0522_030522_earthmars.html - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hahaha damn, yeh i totally forgot about that button... oh well, i accept your argument
- Classico, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oh man, that was priceless.
- yoshitx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They fly a few hundred million miles and forget to focus the camera?
- Phearce, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@clamdiggpig -- I logged in to purposely digg you down, and block your sorry "searchjerk" attention-seeking ass.
- diggsIt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1And, how does that make you feel?
- snurfle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"I before E except after K"

Loads of 'em. Many are plurals and variations though. - flipmeat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1 There are hundreds of other planets that have been located by the 'wobble' they induce in their stars. We are not able to take a picture of these yet, or tell much about their characteristics. Not even with the Hubble, as good as it is. Google 'extrasolar planets'.
We will launch a new space telescope in a few years - around 2010. I don't know if this one will be able to image those planets either, but it might show us a tantalizing speck or two. - richalot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Amazing! Now, I wonder what it looks like from Uranus?
- x00x, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Extraordinary image. Thanks for the link.
- jmcrane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0And who knew Florida had a Jupiter?
- Absinthminded64, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I'm guessing intelligent? life on Jupiter retires to a location that's in the path of the red storm.
Who knew Jupiter had a Florida! - ChipMonkStyle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0when are astronomers going to find a planet that mirror's Earth's characteristics? TELL ME
- Jeffler, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Coming up next, a $20 bill seen from a $5 bill's perspective!
- crossers, on 07/14/2008, -0/+0fantastic! thanks for link!

- iet2004, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3I'm sorry, I had to log in just to ask you what the ***** the point of that was....
- BobbyOnions, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2> EDIT: Wierd, digg thinks "wierd" is misspelled.
That's rediculous! - Sammy20, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5Yo mamma so fat, Mars can see her from space.
- Dominus_Mundi, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2103 diggs and its already dead.
- tyler9xp, on 10/12/2007, -41/+32Wierd, it looks kinda like Jupiter As Seen from Earth....
EDIT: Wierd, digg thinks "wierd" is misspelled. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -12/+1Are you sure it isnt the Firefox spellchecker? because i never knew digg had their own...
And theres another word that busts that myth of "i b4 e except..." "their" - drewhenson, on 10/12/2007, -26/+4I before E except after C...
