I know that the Dia de los Muertos is only a month away, but I didn't know that hard drives have anything to do with it!

In British slang, "poof" is a highly uncomplimentary term for a male homosexual!

I've noticed over the years that pretty much any media coverage of hydrogen energy production has to include a gratuitous mention of the Hindenburg. This one goes one better, filling half the page with a photo:

The ironic thing is that the Hindenburg (and other hydrogen-inflated rigid airships) didn't even use hydrogen in the way that the article is about - burning it, to release energy (when that did happen, it was unintentional) - but rather, to provide aerostatic lift. But it seems that as a readily available cliche to reach for, this one never gets old.
