Neighborhood Cats | Info | Keeping Cats Out of Yards: "One of the most common sources of hostility towards feral cats are people who don't want them in their yards, gardens or other parts of their property. Trying to convince them the cats have every right to dig up their plants is probably not going to do much more than start a long-running argument. A better approach is to respect their views and offer to work with them to keep the cats out. Below are numerous products and techniques worth attempting. The one we have found most effective at Neighborhood Cats is the motion-activated sprinkler. "

Matrix: Explanations, symbols, theories (fans only)

Just came across this, though it is a bit late in the game. The Matrix was disatisfying (to many it would appear) because it did a poor job of answering a few basic questions.

this site points out one of those questions with the answer, and then offers a slew of BETTER answers, including these two:

Matrix: Explanations, symbols, theories (fans only): "# The Matrix is needed because the machines need hackers to reprogram them. Inherent in the machine's programming exists (1) a security mechanism to prevent the extermination of humanity, (2) a security mechanism to prevent the use of any energy source beyond solar power. Thus the machines need hackers to reprogram them. Thus they simulate a world just for hackers. Thus they need Neo, and if he comes to the source he will reprogram the machines and they can wipe out all humans. A twist-within-a-twist.
Fine with me.
# Zion is another simulation but it's meant to rival against the computer system that created the Matrix. Thus the fight turns out to be Computer System #1 against Computer System #2.
Fine with me."
