The second is to have one against an enemy who can't retaliate before you've completely wiped them out.
The third one is to lower your threshold of, "won" to somewhere along the lines of, " we got the bastards." or, " Well, I'm still alive and, ostensibly, they're not."
I'm not a guy-who's-paid-to-figure-these-things-out, but I think that if two nuke capable nations started a conflict today it's doubtful anyone would launch an all-out retaliation that would result in mutually assured destruction. That would just be silly.
All night Disney-movie marathon? Perhaps watching a meteor shower or getting home from vacation. Besides, who said his kids were all that young? Maybe they're all sitting around the dining room table drinking beer and catching up. The real issue is, as a/.er, how'd GPP find time to mate and start a family?
There are certain professions that are not allowed to go on strike because doing so would endanger too many lives. I know doctors can't strike. I'm pretty sure firemen and police officers aren't usually allowed to either. I hope air traffic controllers aren't allowed to strike...
You make lye by electrolyzing seawater. Sure it would release tons of chlorine, but we could always use that. There really isn't much of a use for CO2 except to carbonate beverages and pump into oil wells to try and force more oil out.
it is a little reactive, so recycling would need some special handling.
A little reactive? It would burn pretty violently if simply exposed to air, and EXPLODE if it came in contact with water. And either event would produce highly corrosive byproducts.
That's why it's been mostly replaced with Galinstan.
Lead and Cadmium aren't particularly environmentally friendly either. Pure indium's OK, but when it corrodes it's not entirely safe either. Then again, most existing computer components aren't exactly innocuous anyway.
Well, yeah. The Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Chinese, and pretty much every other ancient civilization buried vast stores of shinies in deep strong catacombs. They also threw in some dead people, but an enlightened person of 12,008 AD isn't scared of ghosts.
...
Of course some people do have a natural ability that also gives them a benefit. So I doubt a really short person could ever be competitive in a world class basketball - unless there was a league for really short people.
Hmm, what qualifies as Really short ? I'd pay special attention to the entries for Bogues, Boykins, and Webb.
TFA's source [corrected] indicates FB gives their affiliates javascript to include in the page that connects to a FB server for cookie exchange. Pretty sneaky. I wonder if google does something like that with google analytics.
Corrected Link! This is why one should not slashdot before one's midday coffee. Please mod parent down, or something. That's a very small server and it will die.

Hey, the moment/. starts getting flooded with eye-candy coeds ( and helping track down long-lost non-geeky friends, but it's 99% the coeds) I'm sure facebook will go out of business, but until then, they're pretty much the big dog of social networking.
The industry itself would still be dominated by companies like Verizon and Google. Microsoft is basically trying to vacuum up the leftovers, assuming TFA is correct.
I would think the idea would be to suck so hard nothing, not even the customer's money, can escape. It's an interesting business strategy and I, for one, am anxious to see if it works.
Anyone geeky enough to pull this off would know that they would require an elliptical reflector to do so and sat dishes are parabolic. It might still work passably well - assuming OP had a girlfriend.

I'm pretty sure those were residents and interns. The attendings, consultants, and staff stayed behind stayed behind to keep the system running.

I could cover myself and say that I was hoping the laws had changed in the past 27 years, but I'm just happy to still be too young for something.

Your ignorance is appalling.
You can fix that, though. What are some major uses for CO2 I missed?
I stand by what I said. When was the last time you, or anyone, pumped something 62 miles straight up?

You do realize the weight of the column of air filling the tube would prevent it from generating much suction... Funny, though.
Is to spend some of that money on gigantic fans pointed towards Tibet, Japan, or somewhere else that's not China.

They actually use your facebook cookie, which would contain your school email, to track you. So just delete your cookies and you should be OK.

Facebook uses an email address as your login, but I'm guessing they probably have some sort of cookie thing set up as well.
