I like the way the NY Times did the photography of the outer packaging, and raw contents.
One thing I've wondered, is that I've seen a couple of references to the "Charms" candies included, being bad luck. I've always associated "Charms" with being hard candies, which I've never seen in an MRE, are they talking about the chicle chew gum squares? That's the item I know as being a "do not eat", though not because of luck but because they have a laxative effect--which has some basis as they're made with sorbitol.
I'm using my computer's spare resources to help find cures for diseases, analyze astronomical data, render 3D animations, simulate new materials and run climate models--what is your computer doing?
