  3. Re:With an average high of about 70 degrees... on Mongolia Wants To Use Artificial Glaciers To Cool Capital · · Score: 1

    Bullshit. I live in Seattle, where the average during the summer is around 70F, but when it gets to 70+ I'll be sweating even if I'm naked in my house sitting still. I typically wear a t-shirt and shorts for most of the year, unless it dips below 40F. I like to cool my room down to 60F during the summer, and during the winter I never turn the heat on. I moved here from Florida, and after living here for 3-4 years I became very accustomed to the colder weather.

    I think you're dead wrong. I'm 17, and still in high school. *Everybody* knows who the Beatles are. If you mention Frank Sinatra, most of the time you'll get funny looks.

  21. Re:worked ? on McCain Campaign Uses Spider/Diff Against Obama · · Score: 2, Informative

    Such is the nature of this war. What I was referring to was this quote from the article:

    "But military statistics released last week show that violence in the form of attacks, and the number of US casualties in Iraq, are now at a four year low. The attacks and casualties have plummeted from a peak in June 2007, according to those statistics."

    And when did the surge start? From Wikipedia:

    'June 15, 2007: The troop surge operations begin. The U.S. military reports that 28,000 troops required for the surge have arrived in Iraq and that the surge operations can now commence. "All the forces initially identified as part of the surge have completed their strategic movements into theatre in Iraq,"'

    That's the date when the deaths started plummeting.
