My wife's 2+ year old, off-the-shelf Canon 7D takes 18 megapixel images. RAW file size is 20+ MB and it can shoot bursts of 12+ images in under 2 seconds. That's 120 megabytes/second (bursted) from consumer grade gear.
I imagine the CIA/DOD can afford much better gear that captures much more data than a single $1700 DSLR. I also assume one drone can carry multiple devices. As far as data transmission, I would bet that being loss-less and encrypted take much higher priority than compression.
I would love to hear the number for the total amount of data gathered by drones monitoring the OBL strike. Hopefully I will still be here in 50 years.
That is how you deal with a "large" liquid mercury spill, say from a broken thermometer as the page indicates. That response is overkill for a broken CFL. You can tell that by the direct link on the mercury spill page to the CFL cleanup instructions I provided. It's in bold titled "specific information about how to clean up broken fluorescent bulbs". There is also a pretty picture of a CFL. Clicking on it provides links to other information on CFLs and mercury that contains facts an opposed to FUD.
Here is what the EPA says about handling a broken CFL:

It DOES say what to do with rugs. It DOES NOT say to throw them out.
Also, I read it a couple of times but could not seem to find the bit where you need to throw out your clothes.
Perhaps you could provide a citation?

Check out the graphics in the article. They have a friendly color coded map. Green is 50. There is a lot of red on the map.
I'd mod every other +5 response in this entire thread (other than "funny" ones) "over rated".
50 years ago the highest marginal tax rate was 89 percent.

That's why you have the Spanish inquire.
