Never, ever, place you power source outside the buildings.
The aliens will simply cut the line, leaving you only 120 minutes (less Coming Attraction Previews) to figure out what's going on and go fix it.
Then, of course, the first few people you send after it will be killed and turned into alien zombies.
Then, when you finally figure that out, you have to crawl through the air ducts to get to the reactor (even though the reactor is supposedly isolated from the buildings) to sneak into the Alien queen's chamber and burn her to a crisp with the flame thrower that is standard issue on a moon colony.
And "Green groups" can't even agree on what's "green".
Nukes?...Ahhh, were all gonna die!. Wind?...Causes medical problems and kills birds. Solar?...Heavy metals in the manufacturing process. Oil?...yeah, right. Harness ocean waves...."Doesn't that take energy from the environment?"...from a real Slashdotter. GeoThermal?...causes earthquakes, kills the geysers.
What happens when you get married: 1. Sex stops 2. She get's fat (probably you too) 3. All your money starts disappearing for no apparent reason. 4. You will be surrounded by strange and insufferable relatives from some place you have never heard of. 5. You will get to drive the old car. 6. Gaming did you say? That won't last long. "I can't believe you are going to play on the computer AGAIN. You just played last week!" 7. She will start asking you if she looks fat, despite the fact she is perfectly aware of #2 8. She won't cook (See #1) and she won't be able to make a decent dinner. 9. You will have to leave the house when her literary friends come over to discuss the life analogies in some gay French author's book. 10. LAN parties? No Fucking Way in her house!
Gallons of oil in a barrel = 44 Barrels used per day in U.S. = 20,680,000 in 2007 Barrels user per year = 7,548,200,000 Gallons used each Year = 332,120,800,000 Gallons per Acre per year for this process 20,000 Acres required to meet U.S demand for a year = 16,606,040
The only more stupid than moving everything to some imaginary "Cloud" is two politicians suggesting that everything be moved to some imaginary "Cloud".
Well, while I can't cite anything but I would have to say that over all, they will cost less in the long run because three services using the same aircraft will save money because:
1. Common parts used in all three variants will cost less to make and stock.
2. Less training expense for maintenance personnel will be needed overall because there will be fewer aircraft types (from F/A-18, F-15, F-16 to just the F-35...assuming things go according to plan)
3. Less training for pilots for the same reason.
Then there are the technological advantages.
Also the theater advantages for maintenance. Aircraft in Allied countries who are using the F-35 (they were part of the design process I and remember that they are purchasing a not insignificant amount of them). So parts and equipment for maintenance don't necessarily need to be shipped all over the world.
Then there is the performance advantages that, despite the redesigns of the Hornet and the Eagle, are still superior.
Hopefully, these will do the job until the pilot-less 6th generation fighters arrive.

Sheesh...don't you guys know anything?
I am apparently a High Functioning Troll.
see my reply to my original post.
Same goes for the idiot moderators.
Or the IRS and SSA enforcing Health Insurance regulations?
Xney that post. Too much vodka in the afternoon tea.
That's like saying if my mortgage company didn't send me a bill, then figured it out, it "cost" me a house payment.
It was owed all along.
And "Green groups" can't even agree on what's "green".
Nukes? ...Ahhh, were all gonna die!. ...Causes medical problems and kills birds. ...Heavy metals in the manufacturing process. ..."Doesn't that take energy from the environment?" ...from a real Slashdotter.
Wind?
Solar?
Oil?...yeah, right.
Harness ocean waves.
GeoThermal?...causes earthquakes, kills the geysers.
And you want them to agree on managing a domain?
And of course the "I disagree with you" mods are having a go it the original post. It had been up to 5 at one point.
But it's well worth the entertainment.
It was actually tongue in cheek. But it's been fun watching everyone be so damned serious. I didn't think Slashdot could be so humor impaired.
ROFLMAF!
Shhhhhh....You are the only one who seems to realize it. Who knew Slashdot was populated by so many metrosexuals?
My Advice...don't get married. It's a trap.

1. Sex stops
2. She get's fat (probably you too)
3. All your money starts disappearing for no apparent reason.
4. You will be surrounded by strange and insufferable relatives from some place you have never heard of.
5. You will get to drive the old car.

Those Brits do know how to insult someone..."ignorant, suck up, mothers-basement-dwelling retard "...Gotta write that one down!
PhD's poo doesn't stink
Amateurs pull numbers out of thin air.
PhDs pull numbers out of their butts.
It makes quite a bit of difference.
Not making an argument. Just saying.
Gallons of oil in a barrel = 44
Barrels used per day in U.S. = 20,680,000 in 2007
Barrels user per year = 7,548,200,000
Gallons used each Year = 332,120,800,000
Gallons per Acre per year for this process 20,000
Acres required to meet U.S demand for a year = 16,606,040
Maybe the folks at Wikileaks will see to it that all the data is published for all to see and scrutinize....nahh... what am I thinking?
And it would not have been found had the data not been available.
Take water from the mouth of the Mississippi, take water from the Gulf, mix it into this device, then dump it right back into the ocean.
The water you back into the Gulf is exactly the same as the water that just flowed into the Gulf.
The Gulf doesn't know the difference and the Mississippi doesn't know the difference.
Amen.

And they are sooo cool and bad-ass.
