It just means that the French language is never spoken, in the future, and if it was it would be the equivelant to making grunts and sounds now, as if you were talking to someone.

Freezers doesn't produce coldness, they simply remove the heat inside a closed area. Everytime you open a freezer, you let in heat which the engine then have to remove.
Anyway, if you took ocean water and froze it, all you would achieve was to transfer heat from one part of the planet (the ocean) to another part (the atmosphere). Once you dumped the ice into the oceans it would melt, cooling the water around it, The cold water would then absorb more heat from the atmosphere. The net result would be an increase of the Earths temperature. Although the circle of heat between the water, the freezer, the ice and the atmopshere would cancel eachother out, the electricity used to freeze the water would result in more greenhouse gases and excess heat at the powerplant.
wow, I didn't know freezers work that way, and I barely even understand the rest of that stuff.

There's something I have just noticed in Less Than Hero. After Leela has told her parents she is Cloverella, her dad is seen fishing with two other mutants, of which one is just a leg with eyes on it. Maurice says "Anyways, my daughter's Cloverella", and the leg-mutant (I don't know his name, or even if he even has one) answers: "You're pulling me!" The real expression is "You're pulling my leg", used when you hear someone say something you don't believe. The leg-mutant, as he *is* a leg, changes the expression accordingly. Anybody else noticed?

In the Farnsworth Paradox, when the gang is searching for the right box to get in, when they are all lying on the ground in a pile. They should ahve just looked for the box without writing on it. Every other box they made was labeled Universe #X, except the box that the Zoidbergs had. Woulda been easy =P

Wow, been ages since I posted.
How's this for the most pedantic nitpicking ever?
in A Bicyclops Built for Two, there's a shot of Leela and Alcazar in bed, then we pan up and see the two moons in the sky. Technically, these moons should be close to full, if not completely full.
Why you ask?
Well, it was mid evening when they got under the covers, and the moons had just risen. I say they had just risen because we saw the sun in pretty much the same spot as the moons, and as it was morning, the sun would have just come up. Now, this means that the moons would have been pretty much opposite the sun in the sky, yet if this is true, then the moons should have been full moons, not the crescent moons that were shown.
Okay, I'll shut up now.

My fix for the holophoner thing is, a technological development occurred between PL and DHAIP, making the holophoner a little bit easier to play; then holophoner lessons became "trendy" for yuppie kids to be subjected to. Fry, of course, got his holophoner upgraded and signed up as soon as he saw that lessons were available.

Sound particles? You mean there is no medium like air for waves from vibration to propagate in. Maybe the Professor knew what the guy was saying from experience. Or there is an automatic ship-to-ship heckling com system in the future.
Here's another one for you. When Fry is fighting the worm king in his brain he cuts some nerve/synapses and then yells ow! Actually, there are no pain receptors in the brain. But then Fry's brain is very different.

He probably just did it on impulse, sometimes when you pretend to punch or throw something at someone and they yell ow for no reason. I guess in some people its just a reflex, but in the case of parasites lost, it was probably just to emphaise that he was hurting himself.
