Carbon Releases in Asia
ninthwave writes "After previous discussions on global warning, I thought I would post some interesting research in the affects of forest fires and drought in Asia on carbon output. The Guardian has this article. More detailed information can be found in these articles from
Leicester University
and the
BBC"
Damn. I guess we Americans are lucky to have "Jobs" release Apple's Carbon API to us.....
(hyuk hyuk)
Haven't we heard enough about carbon and why it is released upon the public yet?
all these weapons of mass destruction, and the un insists on dismanteling them... a cryin' shame
karma: ouch!
I must need more sleep. I thought the headline related to Apple releasing a version of the Carbon API to Asia. Now they can have a sluggish interface full of worthless eye candy... just like the West.
My God! what were they thinking?
Don't they know that Carbon is the most sinister of the basic elements. Superficially less threatening than Plutonium, Carbon can change into diamond, graphite OR coal at will! Nothing can hope to compete with sucha a combination of hardness and combustibility. We are all doomed.
Mankind must vacate Asia at once and put all our resources into developing some Element Hero to combat this element villain so foolhardily released.
Rumor has it that Carbon bonds freely with Hydrogen... perhaps this can be a clue to it's weakness... we can only hope.

As a typical knee jerk reaction to such findings, obviously organizations such as the EPA need to seek laws to outlaw these wildfires!
Once again, Linux comes to the rescue. Linux is being used to help reduce the population growth. It is a well known fact that Linux users *don't* get laid (this is pretty much by definition) and for every new Linux user there is one less person breeding.
Ya right, you can't fool me. I just know it's all those Hibatchi's that's causing it!
From excellent karma to terible karma with a single +5 funny post...
...trees really DO cause pollution!
Now, about ketchup being a vegetable...
"How to Do Nothing," kids activities, back in print!
for every new Linux user there is one less person breeding.
Gen. Turgidson:
Doctor, you mentioned the ratio of ten women to each man. Now, wouldn't that necessitate the abandonment of the so called monogamous sexual relationship, I mean, as far as men were concerned?
Strangelove:
Regrettably, yes. But it is, you know, a sacrifice required for the future of the human race. I hasten to add that since each man will be required to do prodigious... service along these lines, the women will have to be selected for their sexual characteristics which will have to be of a highly stimulating nature.
