International law is irrelevant and a red herring. US law still applies, and what has been done to 'illegal combatants' is still a capital crime, regardless of who the victim is or what country it was done in, or who they pawned the job off to. Just making the plans is enough for a conviction, they didn't even have to carry them out successfully.
Slight problem with what you're saying. That 1 ship = 50 million cars is for pollutants like sulpher, not carbon dioxide, which is our hard to beat concern right now.
I'll agree on the face of it the shipping polution needs to be dealt with, but thats something we already dealt with in cars, and a problem of ramming the fixes down the throats of the shipping companies, nt of finding a fix in the first place.
Um, what? What does Wikipedia's citation process have to with an article in *Nature*.
Nature has no rules against original research, it is nothing but original research. More precisely, Nature *is* the citation. the Britannica's refutation is also a citation, just one that slightly more full of shit than the Nature one.
And yes, unless valid claims are raised against Nature, it remains a peer reviewed journal in high standing, so unless you intend to start claiming everything ever published anywhere is false, you had better be able to back up counterclaims against a journal that has proven itself.
Doesn't mean nature is right, but it does mean you're full of shit if you want to claim its wrong and can't back it up.
Life Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness were dropped for free speech, habeas corpus, and guns, at least in the country you seem to be working from; you're a bit out of date here.
And the 'right' to internet access fall under free speech (and is the only kind of free speech most people can afford). The right not to have it taken away by wild accusations of civil offenses falls under habeas corpus.
Given that the only refutation was from Britannica, and Britannica can't even tell the difference between 'Nature' and the people who wrote the article I would hardly call it 'bogus'.
Looking at the exact list of errors (published after the fact) I'll agree a lot of the errors are nitpicking (though the original article always admitted this), and a few are well.. one is complaining about the taxonomy used for a homo find, anybody whose been involved in anthropology should know the taxonomy is heavily disputed there. Wikipedia would have been held to the same standards though, so the final conclusion still stands.
Brit does have one legitimate claim, in that the ethanol errors were from a junior encyclopedia and not the real thing. Apparently kids don't deserve to have accurate information.
That method usually reduced the owner's income tax actually, typically a small business owner doesn't *want* to use the entire profit as personal income, which is how small businesses are taxed unless you do some legal gymnastics, and as an employee the owner gets to have the company pay a portion of her income tax as well.
The encrypted stuff being random might be the point.
Stuff on your hard drive isn't random, it'll either be 0s left over from its new state, or lots of pieces of files that were written and then deleted. So look for large chunks of truly random data, thats probably an encrypted file.
Um, no, all the competitors you've heard of support it. My player does not. Those competitors must also pay Apple a premium in order to be allowed to do so.
The anti trust issue was never drm for me (which is easy to get rid of), it was apple using its patents to lock other music players out of the iTunes store. (converting from m4a, without trashing quality, is hard).
Last years' CPU on last years' mobo costs 100 dollars for the pair
I disagree. The cheapest price i can find on 'last years processor' (really a year and a half ago) is 114, I payed 150. Thats usually true for other things, but processor prices don't usually drop, places will either ditch the processor altogether, or keep it in stock for years without offering a decent deal for it being obsolete.
Hmm, my point was meant to be that it was an application issue and that you should avoid *anything* Apple makes, but I guess Vista or 7 would make it more secure.
Why exactly would people be expected to know what women's suffrage means in this day and age? At least in this country, the term hasn't been used in normal conversation for some time, it was part of a political battle that is 80 years gone, and left our vocabulary.
Expecting people to know the meaning of an archaic word with a phonetic relationship to something completely different seems silly.
Um... after 50 years, what are the odds the artist will still be alive? only half of us make it to 70 something (too lazy to look up the lifespan rates, their different for different demographics anyway), and musicians aren't exactly known for long lifespans.
Not always, but in flu the deadly strains (at least, Spanish flu and the strain everyone was afraid would shift to humans) cause an overreaction by the immune system. Young adults, whose immune systems are in top shape, get screwed up bad.

Professionals aren't quite the same thing as lifestylers.

algae oil is equivilent to light crude isn't it?
Big ships use heavy crude, so not a drop in replacement in this case.

Can somebody please translate for me? I have no idea what any of that meant, and Google doesn't seem to recognize it either.

You forgot the printer. And the digital camera.
Addendum: Apparently the article actually was written by nature staff, and was not a submission.

Really? Damn, I need to go reinstall Diablo II now that i won't have to search for the disk every time i want to play it.

Most people were, at least around here, but the textbooks don't use the word suffrage, they just talk about women's right to vote.
Don't I have to pay extra for the non DRM?

IIRC it was a flaw in the quicktime plugin (which is swiss cheese) and not the browser itself.
You realize he headed the Vista project?
I thought the problem was fluid in the lungs? Or is that because of the BP?
