Evidence of Glaciers on Mars?

cyclop writes "Nature reports that the Mars Express mission has photographed evidence of ancient glaciers on Mars. It seems glaciers have sculpted valleys on the red planet, much like on Earth." Reader macguys writes "Space.com is reporting that the Mars Rover Opportunity has received an unexpected and unexplained power boost of between 2 and 5 percent. The NASA Rover site is so far silent on the boost."

I voted for Kerry

I voted for Kerry. And then I voted against him. Decisions like this require flexibility, nuance, and a global test.

At the risk of continuing an offtopic thread.

How ignorant some people are. Of the total U.S. working population the percentage of farmers are 0.7% (951,810 out of 129,721,512). California by contrast have 1.3% farmers (196,695 out of 14,718,928). Last time I checked California voted Democrat, only beaten by NY, RI, VT, DC, MD, and MA. Instead of looking at the US map showing state electorates won, try looking for a map where counties are displayed to get a more accurate view of vote distribution.

If Bush only counted on the farmers he would have barely beaten Nader with his 0.3% national vote.
