    Solve warming by carbon emissions? Simple.

    Disband and dissolve the US Navy. The emissions reduction will afford every home in US to burn coal in their own furnace, for a net neutral outcome.

    I like your perspective, and ability to announce a truth in the same context that was used to frame an initial false proposition.

    Why listing to a gold-plated, brass-hatted liar?

    Hitler had Generals with more personal and professional integrity.

    This man has less veracity than a 70's era Politburo Apparatchik, more mendacity than Midway Huckster and greater venality than a Back Street Cutthroat.

    That has to be the most innovative musical instrument ever. I wonder what kind of sound it makes.

    Is an anti-global-warming think tank a think tank opposed to the warming of the globe, or is it a think tank opposed to belief that the globe is warming?

    I dream of fast, 2 CPU Octanes... Is there frame-buffer support for X?

    My Indigo R4000 Elan runs 6.5.22. That was the end-of-the-line for the older, GIO MIPS machines. I got the disc set on eBay, years ago.

    I have a purple Indigo2 Max Impact - I think it's on the same Irix rev. I can only run one space heater at a time. :-)

    There's a funky board made, to use PS/2 peripherals for the Indigo proprietary mouse and keyboard. I have that plugged to two PS/2-USB adaptors, which each have Bluetooth adaptors, 1 for mouse, one for KB. The whole arrangement curls around the back of the enclosure.

    This is like dinging RedHat for not supporting Ubuntu or SuSE. More specifically, for not supporting Apache on each of these distros.

    "Cosmologists have long known that wormholes could have formed in the instants after the Big Bang"

    There's a statement of oblivious credulity! I prefer the version which runs thusly:

    Gilgamesh had two such dreams, first of a shooting star ("a lump of Anu") which fell on him -- so heavy he could not lift nor move it. The land of Uruk encompassed it. The people thronged about it, and Gilgamesh embraced it like a wife. In the second dream Gilgamesh saw an axe fall over the assembly of Uruk, and he hugged it as if it were his wife, too. Puzzled as to their meaning, he went to his mother, the wise goddess Ninsun, who "untied the dreams." She told him that both the star of heaven and the axe were his companion who was coming. "This companion is powerful, has awesome strength, and is able to save a friend."
