One type sort their stuff.. The other type leave the piles as is and index mentally. Most people have had the experience of being in somebody's incredibly cluttered workshop/office/kitchen and the person is able to just conjure up mentally where the thing he/she needs is and go directly there.
That was what the containment is for. But if it's not going to do the job, might as well just have the reactor sitting out in a shack or something, Less to clean up when it all gets contaminated.
And not just the data that was cherry-picked to support the hypothesis?
Well that's kind of a good point, whether or not the OP was sarcastic. Every research project generates reams of data that gets flushed for various reasons. Often the original impulse for the research was a vague wiggle in the data from another, uncontrolled experiment. Where do you draw the line? For an example, I point to all the otherwise apparently rational people who point to every single reported atmospheric CO2 concentration from the earliest days of CO2 measurement as evidence that the current CO2 level is not historically very high; apparently they'd rather believe that the level fluctuated by a factor of 10X on a daily basis back then (but oddly, doesn't fluctuate any more) than that some of the earliest measurements were in error. E. g. http://rps3.com/Files/AGW/Engr... page 19.
Here in CT we're still getting our electricity from the Filthy Five power plants http://www.nytimes.com/1998/07... which were exempt from the Clean Air Act in 1977 because they would be shut down for obsolescence "soon". There isn't a car on the road whose exhaust is worse than these babies. On the other hand, some western location that gets power from Grand Coulee Dam...
Freedom! Libertarianism! etc. Look at how many apps you can find on google play (haven't tried apple store) that will let you recharge your cell phone by holding the screen up to a light source, by the photovoltaic effect.
Carefully test each one and keep only the ones that don't misbehave. and that way your phone will work fine until the next OS upgrade breaks some of them and it starts randomly flashing the flash and locking up.
No. That is not what is happening. Almost all the proposed reductions are to fighting troops. Almost no cuts are to the bloated defense bureaucracy that make up the core of the MIC's revolving door. Hagel wants to reduce the muscle while protecting the belly fat. He is going about it all wrong anyway. Rather than trimming a little here, and a little there, it would be much better to completely eliminate a few big misguided programs. Killing the trillion dollar F-35 boondoggle would be a great place to start.
Absolutely. It's a positive move for the military industrial complex, funneling more money into hardware and software.

well you're not going to bury it first, then try to shit in it. how dumb would that be?
tracks history of bizarre hoarding.
You know that if they were permitted to sell them, people would buy them and eat them.
Ever heard of ground water?
you can't grind water (except to grind ice to make a slushie)

Hell, if they're going to live there in the first place, they might as well build dangerous things too.
Once it gets to the core, or even the mantle, it'll probably be diluted away nicely.
Well, the subcritical nuclear reactor blowing water into steam is an old suggestion for a space engine....

Potentially a PR goldmine for the Depends people, if they put their minds to it.
Huh. I'd have expected Japanium.
"When you can put the toothpaste back in the tube, Grasshopper, you will be read to clean up the Fukushima site"
Ah, but so far at least, it has been contained to the planet Earth.
We have hopes that this will continue to be the case.
Similar to the effect of H. sapiens.
Does that count as Solitary though?
Do you still trust your credit card?

I would love a bike that would literally scream "hipster!" when you press a button or something.

how can it be a great car if it's not 4wd, weigh 6,000 lbs, and be equipped with more home entertainment devices than my actual home?

smaller than those little plastic soldiers in the bag we used to buy? oh boy, those would be hard to defend against. I've seen them in horror movies.
