And the fact that the whole caldera had risen 8" over the last 3 years doesn't mean anything without earthquake swarms and the release of volcanic gases......oh crap. The article is about earthquake swarms in Yellowstone.
No.. Liberals will blame Bush even if it doesn't happen for 10,000 years. Don' you know he is the official cause of everything bad according to the Democrats?
The process of eating and drinking is kind of conducive to human life, and booze is useless as a source of water (doesn't quench thirst or prevent dehydration... does the opposite in fact).
Obviously, you didn't think that through. If you have guns, ammo, and booze, then you can use the first two to get food and water.
Thank you for everything. The Ultima series over the years has brought me countless joy(and a bit of sorrow as well). Good luck in all that you do, Lord British.
It is my duty to inform you that you have violated the Slashdot Users Union rule 34 part c which states in part that the Redundant moderation tag shall be used in cases where the obvious joke is obvious to the Slashdot community and therefore redundant. I hope that this clears up any confusion your part.
Thank you

On that topic, how nice to know we are shutting down all our military really fast nowadays while the russians are mobilising(though probably not to invade us:D))
I guess you missed the part where there is a nuclear Russian fleet parked down in Venezuela. Red Dawn anyone?
Point being, tax breaks do not redistribute wealth. Obama is not taking money from the Rich and giving it to the poor, he is simply taking more from the rich and *keeping it* for running the government. Saying that is marxist clearly shows you have a very poor understanding about what both Marx and Obama support.
No, Sir. You fail at understanding Obama's plan. He is going to take more money from those making 250K a year (or 200k, or 150K or 120K, depending on the day). He claims that 95% of the people will get a tax break. But the dot people like you fail to connect is that 40% of those 95%, don't pay any taxes in the first place. Since he has said it is a rebate, that means if you don't pay taxes, you will get a check every year. That is redistribution of wealth, a cornerstone of the Marxist Ideal.
Now.. lets look at his health care. Giving everyone else health care that can not 'afford' it is another form of wealth redistribution. He is taking more of those taxes and paying for those who he just gave the rebate checks to. And where do you think the money will come from? Oh.. out of the pocket of those of us who pay for our insurance, so the tax bracket who Obama says will pay more taxes will not be 250k or even 150k. It will be those all the way down to 40k-50k. People like me.
Fixed that for you. Seriously. How did this empty suit get elected? Oh.. I know. Rampant Voter Fraud, A Main Stream Media who anointed him Messiah, and hundreds of millions of dollars in questionable campaign funds from untraceable sources.

I may not be the original poster to this, Anonymous Coward, but I can speak authoritatively on the PVP/PVE subject. I personally hate PVP. I think it is a drag on MMORPG. The people who favor PVP are ususally the childish asshats on XBox Live with the foul mouths and teabaging opponents in Halo.
How can I say this? Well, I have tried PVP. I playtested not only WoW (both expansions) but also EQ2, LOTRO, and WAR. I have been playing MMORPGs pretty much since the begining.
You do need to be a PVPer in WAR to do anything. Thats all anyone in that game cares about. Yes, there are a FEW RP/PVE guilds, but generally it is a PVP oriented game. That is the market they are trying to reach (and to be honest, WoW would be a better game if the PVPers left so the designers could concentrate on the real content) and they are welcome to it.
As far as knowing anything about Mythic Entertainment, considering I have played all of their MMORPG games (I liked Ultima Online and DAOC), I think I can speak on the subject. I have also played the tabletop miniatures and the RPG versions for many years so I know the lore better than you. I can say that it is a PVP game.
So if anyone is sucking hard around here, it is you, good sir.
Yes.. this is a flamebait/troll. But mark my words. If Obama gets in, look for all your civil liberties to disappear faster than anything the stupid Bush Administration has done. Orwell was just off by 20 years, if BHO gets in.
Nice story, but doesn't apply here. The ONLY reason he left Wrights church was because it became a political liability. If it those videos would not have surfaced on youtube and the in the blogosphere, then he would still be setting in that pew, listening to that hate mongering.
umm.. no.. they are all true. You are the one brainwashed.
You say that it doesn't have an impact on how he would be President, then you sir, are a fool. What a man says or does reflect completely on what he would do as POTUS. The fact remains that all of the facts that I have mentioned are DOCUMENTED. And they show what kind of person Obama really is.
Go look at the State of Illinois voting records and you will see a lot of his votes of present were for issues that could be used against him, such as Abortion and Women's rights. Rather than taking a stand on an issue, he votes present so he cant be called into account should the political winds shift and his position be unpopular with his party.
Look at his released earmarks for his first year in Congress and you will see one for 1millon for a pavilion for the hospital where his wife is a VP, the next year her salary jumps by almost double with the same job title and function.
Look at all the materials related to the church he sat at for twenty years. Read Cones books on Black Liberation Theology (I have) and you will see that it is nothing but a twisted and hate filled ideology. He sat in that church for 20 years. Called Reverend Wright a mentor. And yet, when called out on it, claims he didn't remember hearing that, even though VIDEO evidence of Wright's hate filled, anti-white speeches show him acknowledging Obama in the audience.
If you are so stupid to actually believe that who a person is does not affect how he would be President, then I really pity you. I candidates character should be the most important factor in choosing a leader. Anyone can spout talking points, but you need to walk the walk, not just talk the talk.

An eruption at Yellowstone would more than likely be an explosive type due to the denser rock strata causing a major pyroclastic flow.
No lava flow for Tommy Lee Jones to drop a building on to divert into a concrete riverbed.
And the fact that the whole caldera had risen 8" over the last 3 years doesn't mean anything without earthquake swarms and the release of volcanic gases... ...oh crap. The article is about earthquake swarms in Yellowstone.
DUCK AND COVER!

Haven't you ever played Fallout?
The booze is for cleaning the wounds.
With a apocalypse right around the corner, its a good thing that I am spending many hours in the perfect post-apocalyptic simulation, Fallout 3.
Super Volcano or Nuclear War, the net effect is the same, just one has less radiation.
I so want to work down there...
Good to see Baghdad Bob found a good job following the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime.
You do know this is how Skynet starts, don't you.
Expect a visit from the Conner's and River Tam any day now.
Don't you know Scotty's secret to fixing the Enterprise?
DUCT TAPE!
Maybe not, but it will fit on NASA's set in the desert.

Good Times,good times...

Whats wrong with Bigus Dickus? I have a very good friend in Rome named Bigus Dickus.
Wait until Bigus Dickus hears about this.
No.. that will start if Obama wins

I see the Obamabots got mod points today.
You mod the TRUTH a troll?
