    I haven't read all the responses to your post, so this may be modded redundant...

    But, NO CHEMICALS IN WATER?

    Perhaps you do not live in the U.S. or the U.K., or do not drink anything produced in the U.S.

  2. Re:From the institute of Duh? on High Fructose Corn Syrup Causes Bigger Weight Gain In Rats · · Score: 1

    I remember reading a story about a man who wanted to give away a dining table, so he put it by the curb with a sign on it that said "FREE!".

    It sat there for a week.

    So the guy put a different sign on it that said "FOR SALE: $10".

    That night somebody stole it.

    You make a good point.

    This "report" registers a 9.7 on the bullshit scale.

    Forget "TSA physical terrorist security theater", which is costly and unpopular... at least among the non-Fox-News crowd... it turns out that some people don't think it is a good idea to send other peoples' kids to get killed in the name of oil and heroin.

    Think "cyberwar terrorist drama" which is MUCH less costly, and in fact does not even really need to happen in order to reap the benefits.

    Just drone on about how the "bad guys" have all sort of kiddieporn devilworship muslim terror-commie websites set up, and the United States government is riding to the rescue on the backs of cyber-soldiers protecting the cyber-borders from cyber-attacks using cyber-defense cyber-strategies.

    The fake-churchy Fox News trash will eat it up and beg for more.

    If this looks like it will actually come to pass, stock up on ChiPods. As many as you can buy, buy them. When new hardware _requires_ DRM and locked-down transfer channels, those things will be golden.

    A friend has some property out in the county. He used to have big problems with people on 4-wheelers coming through the back gate and tearing up the place.

    So he took some rebar and a grinder and made steel spikes, which he put at different places on the road, and hung a big sign "SPIKES IN ROAD".

    Some dipshit came roaring through on his 4 wheeler and got his tires popped. He came up to the house and asked if he could use the phone, and complaining about his tires.

    When asked why he was riding on the road when the sign clearly advertised the presence of spikes, he said that he "didn't think there were really spikes in the road".

    People are idiots.
