#4What's on the last picture is mostly casing. They seem to have found a magnetic roll that hopefully contains data, but there's some risk they found nothing

#5Will Wikipedia ever get responsive?
[EDIT:] In other words, Wikipedia seems to be the last vestige of the dumb old "separate web for mobile" mindset of ideas like WML. Media queries are just better, and would prevent this inane "that link sucks for half of us; here's one that sucks for the other half" crap.

#6even today there are flight recorders. isn't that completely whack and irresponsible? just let everyone turn on their cellphones, and voila, suddenly there are a hundred flight recorders on every flight, streaming real-time. (yes, if you are severely asp-burger you will find that last sentence to be irresistible baiting - sigh.) seriously, relying on a physical device for information security in a physical destruction event over deep water is pretty stupid when there are more LEOs that you can shake a dipole at.

Responsive design is the design ideal of not having two separate sites -- one for mobile and the other for desktop -- but rather just being able to visit one site and have its CSS dynamically adjust so that it looks good in all screen sizes.

There just isn't adequate satellite internet worldwide to trust that system just yet. Airplanes don't even broadcast their coordinates to satellites in many airlines, despite existing networks likely (ie Iridium) being able to handle the small increase in data (if they kept the packets small - just flight number/lat/lon - and let the satellites figure out where to send and what time the packets come, the total size from all flights worldwide every hour could still remain under 200mb)

Wikipedia is responsive, so not clear what the comment meant.
