To provide a break from all the Foxit endorsements: Sumatra is open source, works well and is smaller than Foxit. Also, it is a stand-alone executable, not an installer. Now I just need to figure out how to set Continuous scrolling as default...
Cows don't have very long hair, so it's not economical to shear. You are practically proposing that we use raw leather.
In fact, most animals with hair long enough to use like this are already shorn for use in textiles. (long-haired dogs & cats being possible exceptions)
Seems more supplemental than contradictory.
Odd that Man would come before plants, animals, and celestial bodies... but I see no reason the plants couldn't have been the second thing on Day 3's to-do list.
So your saying only the scavaging meat eaters would have survived?
No, but rabbits (excluding the Monty Python breed) and other small herbivores can live on a lot less plant matter than a beast the size of a small house.
The only thing that matters with regard to government documents is archival.
Really? It's my experience that government (and I assume businesses and education as well) have a lot of 'live' documents at any one time, and a non-trivial portion of these are on network shares for a reason. So requests for upgrades (and accompanying licenses) to $LATEST_VERSION is a massive cascade after the first document in $LATEST_VERSION's format is encountered (usually from an outside vendor). One convert creates the need for more, because the documents $LATEST_VERSION tries making in $OLD_VERSION's format don't look quite right on the officemate's computer.
Open formats prevent such ad-hoc installations from being forced on organizations with Debian-paced upgrade cycles.
One assumes that the fuel load would at least be partly disbursed by a missile strike.
Burning fuel raining down over several city blocks. A pyromaniac's dream come true...
One also assumes that the fighters wouldn't wait until they were over Manhattan to pull the trigger. In the cold calculus, 100 homes wiped out on Long Island or Northern NJ is a good trade for the towers and the people in them.
So either someone hasn't given the order yet (his wife is visiting relatives is in the low casualty area or something), or the fighters have only just arrived on scene.
No, I am reasonably certain that the last time a plane flew very low, it landed safely on the tarmac. (or rapidly climbed to cruising altitude)
How would a plane land safely without flying very low?

But...that's the 32-bit version...
Those sites are important because they are easy to use and good at what they do (ok, Google is, anyway).
search.yahoo.com isn't bad. Too bad it isn't their default.
IBM used to use 9.0.0.0/8 address for their internal network. Computers that didn't have access to the internet or anything.
If they're not connected to the Internet, then what does it matter?
And why 9.0.0.0/8?
you've lost...

You're just being redundant.
If you have a good PDF viewer, they aren't slow to load and won't crash your browser.
If you don't use a reader with a browser plugin, a PDF is just as likely to crash your browser as a zip file.

When dealing with weapons fired from orbit, a nuke really is the only way to be sure.
I prefer the Little Doctor, myself.

Who hasn't?
That single megabit is the difference between "one of the fastest" and "the fastest".
It's a marketing thing, I think.

Nor fighters - if there were, there would not have BEEN 9/11 as we now know it.
To paraphrase from Tom Clancy's book Executive Orders: .
200 tons of aluminium, fibreglass and fuel doesn't just stop
If the planes had been shot down, they would have hit something. Maybe more buildings than two individual planes could.

When was the last time any new (computing) technology was initially targeted at consumers?

There are a few upsides to such locked-down regimes.
Chiefly: easier to control population movements, so it can't spread as far.
south america
Don't they have their own exotic diseases to worry about?

Less likely than China. Personal contact is already kept at a minimum.
If they can manage with paper voting, anyone can.
