    I don't have time to count the CO2 molecules for you. But I am sure there are at least 3 more per cubic meter.

  9. Re:"And Man-Made" ? on Koch Bros Study Finds Global Warming Is Real And Man-Made · · Score: 1

    I say we test the hypothesis. Let's lower the CO2 levels and see what happens. If the temperature goes back down, then I will believe it.

    ... we will have to hand over Facebook account password just to get past airline security. What? No Facebook? Under arrest!

  11. Re:How is this really helping the world? on Google Announces Plans, Pricing For Kansas City Fiber Network · · Score: 2

    You are confusing capitalism with competition. These are orthogonal. You can have one without the other. Capitalism is about investment. That can exist even for monopolies. What we gain by having Google enter the marketplace for FTTH is competition. Capitalism is already here.

  12. Rotating disk of gas? on Kepler Spots "Perfectly Aligned" Alien Worlds · · Score: 1

    The alignment does not prove they were formed from a rotating disk of gas. Planets in stable orbits around a sun with great tilts will gradually shift their orbits to nearly a common plane. This is caused by their own gravity affecting each other. How fast it happens depends on things like locations of larger planets and orbital timings. Note that while this is happening, their own rotational angle does not change. So the net result is planets with rotation planes not in alignment with orbit planes. This is the other explanation for Earth's 23 degree tilt (it's orbit was 23 degrees different when formed, and gradually tugged into the existing orbital plane, leaving the rotation plane unchanged).

  13. This kind of thing would not happen if ... on Fake Password Reset E-mail Hits 7,500 Black Hat Registrants · · Score: 1

  17. YES WE DO!!! on Could Google Fiber Save Network Neutrality? · · Score: 1

    We paid for it ... not individually, but as a nation ... we OWN IT ... not individually, but as a nation. It is ownership delegation. Of course no ONE taxpayer gets to control what is done with it. We all as a nation vote on the matters, through our representatives. That is the process by which the decision on how to handle what "we all as a nation" own.

    As for the telco lines and coaxial cables that were subsidized by the various governments, and hence owned, perhaps in part, perhaps in whole, depending on each case ... it is "we all as a nation" or "... as a state" or "... as a city" (depending on which it is) that then get to say what is done with "our" stuff.

    It should all be a level playing field. It is not a true free or fair market unless that is so.
