  1. Re:What kind of cowards do they hire? on Angry Villagers Run Google Out of Town · · Score: 1

    all they need is some pitchforks

  2. Re:Not us. on Should Google Be Forced To Pay For News? · · Score: 1

    wait.. but if they do that that's leveraging google's monopoly in the search market...

    well, it's not like google does not profit from the search. I would argue that a newspaper has a right to agree to be searched by google but not to be included in gogle news. It's their content after all. If google doesn't like the fact newspaper doesn't want to be indexed on google news it can also remove it from search results. All or nothing sort of a deal.

    in my opinion both google and the newspaper benefit from searching a site so if a newspaper doesn't want to be on google news on top of that it's fine

    disclaimer: I'm not an IT guy. What if a newspaper doesn't want to be indexed by Google news, but still wants to be searchable by people using Google search? would robots.txt accommodate that?

  6. Re:Oh on Why Toddlers Don't Do What They're Told · · Score: 4, Funny

    I agree and have a feeling that if they substituted college students for toddlers they would get pretty similar results for a fraction of the price.

  7. Re:People that think humans... on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    Yes you're right, humans cannot affect the weather. Let's have a nuclear war or two.

  8. Re:Yawn on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    I agree with your sentiment, but you cannot prove a negative in this case.

    Questioning global warming theory does not make you ignorant; not questioning does.

  10. Re:Thank goodness on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 2, Funny

    now I even sound like a politician

  11. Re:Yawn on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    but you need to be one to actually prove it

  12. Re:Thank goodness on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    truth is relative. Real question is: can we handle it?

  13. Re:Thank goodness on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    I guess computer science got in your way.

  14. Re:Thank goodness on The Global Warming Heretic · · Score: 1

    Well whether it's bad science or not, it at least encourages humanity to clean up our act. Which is kind of ironic when you think about it..

    I dread the day we stop questioning ourselves
