  1. Re:Too tenuous on Paintball Pellets As a Tool To Deflect Asteroids · · Score: 1

    That's a long shot plan right there.

    I think sending Bruce Willis with a thermonuclear device and a boatload of family drama might work even better.

    Paint ball, 357 magnum, rail gun, asteroid; see the ever increasing progression of feeble stupidity?

  2. Re:lawsuit time? on Canadian Teenager Arrested For Photographing Mall Takedown · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That only worked because the government thugs had arrived.

    Had it only been the mall cops they would have been sued out of existence, its illegal in BC for security workers to even carry handcuffs.

    Don't worry, it's for national security and the children.

  4. Re:"Deep Space 9" mission? on NASA Engineers Building Mockup of Deep Space Station · · Score: 1

    The unveiling of this "mock-up" is obviously NASA trying to cover their tracks after their secret plan to fake a deep space mission was discovered.

    That's okay, as long as there is a Quark's.

    If by misfeasance, a person can be tried for manslaughter, then, is it possible to try the politicians who signed the NDAA for conspiracy to commit murder?

    If NOC learns to speak like a human, maybe we will be able to communicate. Just think, we can teach him to lie, cheat, steal, revel in the suffering of others. Wait until he gets a load of our politicians. GO NOC!

    If this is true, then what about the abilities of magnets, where like poles repel and opposite poles attract?.

    Well, you see, magnets can't think. If this analogy is an example of your "brilliance" then count me as a skeptic.

    If it were not for magnetic fields, would you be able to think?

  19. Re:Incorporates previous designs on Standard For Electric Car Charging Announced · · Score: 1

    From TFA:

    [The New standard is] based on the 2009 J1772, which had only an AC charging plug. The current version includes a DC plug underneath the AC plug, which means that not only are both options available, but cars with the older J1772 couplings, such as the 2012 Nissan Leaf and 2013 Chevrolet Volt, can still use the new plug.

    Yada yada yada. Incorporates previous designs, ptui. Let's incorporate a new design, one that take electricity right out of the air. We swim in magnetic fields. Your "previous" designs ultimately rely on coal, nuclear, natural gas or plain old oil. Money for rich bastards who have more dollars than sense. Resonant coupling is where it's at, oh yeah, the only costs incurred would be in the device and power would be basically free. But we all know the true parasites of society would not allow this

    Also, the educational system of the sixties ensure people that excelled, but didn't have the financial wherewith-all. were made to conform to a lower standard just to make them like everybody else. I still haven't conformed and have no intentions of doing so. Mensa is a joke. you have to pay a fee for like-minded people to stroke your ego, whoopee. Everything I have become I did out of sheer cussedness. I have a long way to go and I cannot and do not expect assistance. Every time I ask for help I have my ass handed to me. Oh well. I have come to the thinking that only small steps, under the radar, so to speak with my own money is the only way. Striving for notoriety, money, degrees are for lamers. True genius looks at the long term without compensation, for the good of the greater populace. Tesla was screwed by big money and mediocre people like Morgan, Edison (a real hack). It's the little man with too much money and too few morals that really shit in the punch bowl.

    Or is this the banksters way of chumming the waters for all the little fishies to swallow that all their hard earned money just simply disappeared. The sad thing is, sheeple are waking up. Lies show just how arrogant leaders have become. Humility will be restored at a cost yet dreamed of. The CON(gress)MEN have failed to realize anything, have failed to uphold the Constitution, have failed in the Stewardship of this country, have failed to divest themselves of avarice. If you are not of the LIGHT, then you cannot remain.
