Test the plausibility of The Day After Tomorrow: "Computer users are being invited to download and run a climate model of what may happen this century. The test will see how predictions may change if the behaviour of the Gulf Stream is affected, as the film shows. The project is the work of climateprediction.net, a consortium of UK universities and the Met Office."

Buy both an iPod and a Nomad -- Comment()
I looked up iPod at Amazon.com, and noticed that Amazon recommends that you buy both an iPod and a Nomad 4 GB player: "Creative Labs Nomad MuVo2 4 GB MP3 Player .... Buy this item with Apple 4 GB iPod Mini Silver M9160LL/A today!" Probably people buy the other because of the price, and the other because of the usability.
