Of course, you can still enter UK without mandatory fingerprinting and laptop confiscation... let him that is without blame throw the first rock (stones aren't "kick-ass" enough for Americans).
Monty Python (the TV series), ran between 1969 and 1974. Of course there were a few movies later on, but the quotes you used definately came from the TV series.
Erm, time to move on, this *is* the 21st century !
Yes, parking spaces blah blah, not stealing, just using energy that would have been dissipated us heat / friction.
The fact remains, IF the plate if horizontal, after the car has stopped on it, it is lower down than it would have been otherwise. Thus energy must STILL be expended by the car to regain it's former position at "zero level" as opposed to the "-5mm level it is at because of the plate".
So while it may not be "stealing" gas as the car comes to a stop, it will steal the gas when the car has to climb back out of the depression, even if this is after a busy day shopping for groceries and having a Starbucks Grande.
I have this revolutionary idea for totally green energy.
If you live on top of Mount Everest, we can install these plates all the way down to the foothills of Tibet, in such a fashion that the energy generated is stored in an "energy reservoir" (which will be about 10km in diameter, and 20km tall, with a big fucking pink Energizer bunny painted on the side).
Then when I want to return home at Camp VI, I simply charge my electric car (it's GREEN, dontchaknow) from the "battery", and drive home for "free".
No more pointless "climbing" of the tallest mountain in the world, simply "drive" up and down.
Limitless energy for everyone in the Himalayas. Will also work for residents of Mount Snowdon, Ben Nevis, and multiple locations in the Lake District.

Yes because every road surface sinks 5mm as you drive over it... idiot.
Any change in height of the vehicle involves a change in potential energy. This energy has to come from somewhere, therefore every time your car is forced by these plates to become 5mm lower, when regaining that 5mm to climb back up, work is done.
i.e. no matter how tiny / trivial the change in height, energy is consumed.
Think of it like this... a bank takes 1 cent from every dollar in your savings account. You can argue "oh, it's only a cent", but it all adds up to a whopping great profit for the bank. This is the same thing, only with gas.
Pehaps you might explain this to the US, who seem to have made a habit of kicking ass for 2 weeks, then hanging around for 10 years like a bad smell (Vietnam, Iraq) etc etc.
Have you ever *seen* a US Baseball, Basketball or Football (sic) game ?
They are *obsessed* with statistics and numbers (it gives them something to do while the 475 referees argue over whether the ball actually moved 10 feet or not).
Nope, 125 finalists still works, but heck, you probably come from US which merely emphasises the irony.
Finalists = 125 80% of the finalists are Chinese = 100 Chinese 80% of the non-Chinese (25) are Russian = 20 Russian 80% of the remainder (5) are Indian = 4 Indians There is still 1 finalist unaccouted for, and that is your non-Indian.
"Java VM allows arbitrary code execution on Max OSX". (Repeat 10 times until you get it).
And before you start about how that's "not the same" because Sun is a different company, consider this. XP SP3, Vista, Windows have all been progressively more secure. ActiveX and driveby installs are *almost* a thing of the past, and the last major bad shit was Sasser Worm and the likes that exploited open services.
But nothing will stop some lemon installing the latest screensaver, or 1000 email smileys onto their system, and once the trojan or whatever is *inside* the machine calling out, there's not a lot you can do on *any* O/S. For me now, I don't worry so much about the core Windows anymore, but fret every time my wife or kids installs something they got off the net.

Given the percentage of Chinese coders in comparison to US, they still did roughly twice as good
In that sentence, it is obvious (at least to me and the OP, but not to you), that "they" are the Chinese, NOT the US.
In which case 0.02237 is (very) roughly twice as good as 0.00854. In actual fact it's closer to three times as good, but let's not split hairs.
Math : 10/10 (for the division to 5 decimal places)

No, it's a full stop. A period is what a girl gets once a month.
You say erbs, and we say herbs ... because there's a fucking 'h' in it !
why do you run Windows when you can do almost0 everything you have to do in open source

No wait, Barak already covered that, didn't he ?

I'd have thought the primary purpose of *any* individual article is to stay on topic, lest it become a free-for-all or nonsense.
As the topic in question here included "Head of LxLabs found hanged", I don't see any problem in discussing it, and apparently neither did the author.
But, hey, you obviously know better than everyone ... let me guess, you're Rob's mother ?
Many places are hesitant to hire PhDs to wash dishes
So don't tell them ?
You appear to speak English. They only hire people from the future around here.

but are you seriously using any form of journalism as a source in your argument
FTFY
Ah, the "Fat Bastard Scale". Good to see the old ways are being maintained.
After what MediaSentry were allowed to get away with, a dog's testimony is possibly more plausible.
