I for one hope that 'Merkuns stop production of GHB-like offspring who become presidents.

We recently received a huge shipment of Aqua Dots products. They were so irresistable, even our President got into the spirit of making creative designs with dots. Take a look at some of his unique Aqua Dot creations.

"...continuous laser wave..."

Aw, nuts. And I just bought my new Continuous Bacon Wave . <sigh>There's always an upgrade.</sigh>

I agree with h/er view on how the mayority of Noncanadiannorthamericanunitedstatians consume.

++Features = ++better.

Microsoft products are a prime example of this. Most of their product's features are plain useless, just pure marketing-induced-bloat.

I do not agree with h/er about ABS and air bags, but dual-speed power windows? I do not agree with your correlation between the author's views on purely useless technology and h/er interest in computer games.

It must be me, but they are comparing wetter water/water with a glycol/water coolant in the link i placed before. Or is this just a case of marketing?

Just because they're comparing the two doesn't mean one is a replacement for the other. Before, you'd run either water, or water+glycol. Now you add another variable, giving four possible combonations:

• water
• water+wetter
• water+glycol
• water+glycol+wetter

It only makes sense to compare them all. Also, I can tell that you think this is some product someone would sell on a 4am infomercial (cause you said so yourself). This is not the case, Red Line Oil is a trusted company, they make all sorts of oils for engines, transmissions and differentials. Racers use Red Line any time they can afford it. The closest competetor made by a well-known brand is Mobil 1 synthetic.

The product that *does* deserve your criticism is the "magical" stuff that you see when you walk into AutoZone or O'Rileys thats colored bright pink and in cool-looking plastic erlin-meyer flasks that promises to produce more power and stop your engine from smoking and make your abs firmer.

Trust me, Red Line is well respected in the automotive community. Or don't trust me, I don't care. But Red Line Oil is heavy duty stuff, not some magical frilly thing. Water Wetter is interestingly named, yes, and even the packaging seems a bit silly. But it's certainly not reliant on people's impluse buying.

It is my belief that if God had not intended for us to make discoveries via stem cell research, then He would not have given us the intelligence to do so.

Using that logic, God intends us to watch Full House, blow ourselves up with nuclear weapons, and cut our hair with the Flo-Bee.
