We (the US) already dump tons of nuclear waste on our enemies. Ever heard of depleted uranium ammunition? Last I checked we used about 350 tons of the shit against Iraq during the first gulf war.
Meh, usually I'm not too quick to update things. I upgrade mainly based on actual improvements in functionality. I still run xp on my gaming machine. But on my laptop, which has ubuntu gutsy, I upgraded to firefox 3 because of 2's rampant crashing. FF3 works far better for me, Vista does not.
Acceptance of authority also brought them world war two. It brought them a war in which a potential victory was only an illusion in the minds of a bunch of imperial bureaucrats. It brought them a military occupation by the USA that lasts to this day. It brought them fat man and little boy. So, in conclusion, an acceptance of authority is always the way to go?
Since he's so frickin' old, I'm guessing they're going to seriously consider his VP as the next president of the United States. Even Reagan didn't seem this old. First, Reagan wasn't that old. Second, McCain has gray hair. Reagan Didn't
Well, take the 1968 election. There was much bickering between the Democratic candidates. (Johnson, Humphrey, Wallace, Kennedy, and McCarthy) the Democrats were destroyed in the popular election and, in many ways, they never really recovered from it. So, in conclusion, a split party will be disastrous not only in the presidential election, but in the congress as well.
That is because the south is dominated by baptists.(I know, I live there) Most, as in practically all I've met, do not believe in evolution. In fact, I've met baptists that don't think that catholics are Christians. Saddening, isn't it.
Shit, my old k-12 schools used corporal punishment. They still do use it to this day. I personally found it a good way to get out of writing punishment essays and the like.
In the high school I went to, we simply weren't taught anything pertaining to evolution or intelligent design. Hell, in my elementary school, they hired some guy to come in and lecture about how evolution was falsified by the law of spontaneous generation. Of course, I live in Alabama and not Florida but the mentality is probably similar.
Evolution, or science for that matter, is not taught because the state or anyone else is trying to impose its beliefs on the students. That type of thing is reserved for history classes which do exist, for the most part, to promote a pro-US veiwpoint and patriotism in Americans. Math and science classes are mandated to be taught by the government because mass ignorance is antithetical to any kind of technological and thus commercial success for the country. The theory of evolution by natural selection is the foundation by which modern biology is based. Despite the wishes of some of its constituents, the government will continue to mandate biology and, by reflection, evolution because America needs to remain competitive to survive.
We don't teach both the Germ Theory of Disease and the Miasma Theory of Disease.
We don't teach both the periodic table and the Aristotelean Four Elements.
We don't teach both chemistry and phlogiston theory.
We don't teach both the electromagnetism and Aether theory.
We don't teach both evolution and creationism. Actually, many of these things are taught. But, they are taught in a philosophy class rather than a science class.
Uhhh, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't laws the highest truths in science? Theories only explain why laws exist. Such as the theory of evolutiony by natural selection explains the observed evolutions of species over time.
The only catch is that even your machine far exceeds the minimum spec for vista capable simply because you have a discrete video card. The problems aren't with the 915 chipset, they are with the 915 GMA integrated video chip that comes with it.

Don't get your hopes up. I go to a "advanced" high school and many people still cannot understand the scientific method.
