  1. ...as this mitigates feelings of complacency, and resists the formation of entrenched bureaucracies.

    When you make it sound like that, Stalin's Great Purge comes to mind.

    Only if they're operating illegally- do you know what a pain in the ass it usually is to get approval from the local city, county and/or state health department to operate a commercial kitchen??

    "Spam - it tastes just like your enemies!"

    Still, there are two sides to native Hawaiian's xenophobia and resentment...

  7. You didn't answer the relevant question: why is this an article??

  8. The location may be ecologically unique (it's going to have a certain "sky island" quality to it but it's hardly ecologically rich; have you been to the top of Maui? It looks like Mars; a few extremophiles should survive the earth-moving and the laying of concrete...

    I skimmed through the mental masturbation until I arrived at the following gem:

    Personally, I am against the construction of telescopes anywhere

    This agitated goon needs to put down the letters and numbers, even the tools and clothes, and head the fuck back into the woods; his appropriation of culture is annoying me.

    since they want to live without progress

    Indigenous Hawaiians have been supplied with a good reason to distrust "progress."

  11. Digital copies of books are more easily proliferated and even more "impossible" to be eradicated.

    Fortunately digital degrades gracefully - those stick figures painted on the walks of caves? They used to be jpegs and bitmaps.

    Exactly, books where you cannot change the font-size is so 20th century.

    This is a game of chess. "Stealing" is a move we wish to prevent "the other guy" from making. How it makes you feel... (one way or the other) probably isn't relevant.

    China has been exporting deflation to other countries by keeping prices low you idiot.

    No Comma Faggot, is that you?!

    You don't really understand the whole 'currency thing,' do you? The Chinese need to keep the value of their currency down if they want to keep their prices low (i.e stay competitive), not the other way around.
