OH GOOD! I want a web form with a blank textbox that will allow me to enter a value representing the number of minutes that my children will remain quiet from the time that I submit. Money is no issue if it works, please send me a quote.

Maybe we can add names to a database and split the cost, ya? I figure we'll make it up by selling people minutes of peace and quiet.

Whatever programs you have written in life , you can not add additional code in the program which can verify the program is 100% correct .

ACCURATE weather forecasting can't be.
There are chaotic forces at work, the effect of which can't be predicted accurately.

Easy, you just need a system built using Windows CE, Windows ME and Windows NT :icon_cheesygrin:

Oh no , there are much easier and practical ways of implementing it , I heard of a prototype sensor which will monitor driver's biological conditions if driver fells asleep while driving it will pinch him , so in simmilar line there could be a whining sensors it will pinch you if you whine continously for 5 minutes .

No, that won't work, my kids are much too smart and would figure out a work around real quick. What they would probably do is whine for 4:50, stop and then start up again. Plus, my 7 yr old would find a way of terrorizing my 4 yr old with it.

Sounds like a nasty hack, I would be considering ousourcing to foster homes.

Really? I can forecast the next 5 minutes of weather with high accuracy.

I could make a wristwatch for them to wear that injects a sedative.

No you cannot a typhoon/tsunami can travel upto 30 miles in 5 minutes.

Holy crap, That's 360 mph. I am soooooooo minuscule.

No you cannot [forecast] a typhoon/tsunami can travel upto 30 miles in 5 minutes.
Category 5 hurricanes (typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression and simply cyclone) have winds around 155 mph and travel as fast as 60mph. Tornadoes have wind speeds up to 318 mph and travel up to 70mph. Tsunamis on the other hand "On the open ocean, tsunami waves approach speeds of 500 mph".
In 1984, the director of NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Labs came up with a method of for giving tsunamis warnings around 25 minutes in advance. The problem has been disseminating warnings. In Asia, when warnings are issued the folks all head for high ground. In the US when there is a warning, folks head for the coast to see it. Sigh! Fortunately, the continental US has not had a serious tsunami - Hawaii has had them.

What would you do, try to see it or head for high ground?
