  1. Re:No Joke? on IBM Suspended From US Federal Contracts · · Score: 1

    That's the problem. Real like is so fscked up that we can't have April fools. Just pop open CNN.com any day and have a laugh. :(

  2. Shit in, shit out on Drugs In Our Drinking Water · · Score: 4, Interesting

    As was stated, it's not because the water companies are paid to drug us, just so many people are taking these drugs that when people defecate and urinate, guess what enters the main water supplies? Most current filtering systems weren't designed with drugs in such a concentration in mind. I remember reading an article a few months back about estrogen being so small a particle it is virtually impossible to trap, eventually to cause problems because not only do people take estrogen supplements (albeit to a lesser extent than testosterone), but women keep passing it through natural methods. Personally, I think 90% of these drugs people take are excessive. I'm perfectly healthy and don't take any drugs, except an occasional ibuprofen, whereas a friend of mine is perfectly healthy and is on constant drugs. People need to learn the concept of placebo again (counterintuitive, maybe), they need to change the way they think about medications and their lifestyles. All this medication is ridiculous and unnecessary in most cases. The same principal applies- put shit in, get shit out.

  5. Re:Valuating for Property Tax Purposes on If IP Is Property, Where Is the Property Tax? · · Score: 1

    The only problem with that is I see a monopolistic superpower buying all the IP rights they can, simply because they have the money. Then nobody would be able to buy it from them. Seems counterintuitive to me.

  6. Didn't we already know this? on Hearing Voices? Could Be the Lasers · · Score: 1

    Wasn't there a billboard in NYC that worked in a similar fashion just a few months ago?
