My point is that because the prohibition of interracial marriage was a mistake, it's not automatically a mistake to prohibit marriage on some other basis.
It's as much a non-sequiter as claiming that since it was a mistake for government to allow slavery, then it's also a mistake for government to allow anything else.
This works for taking stereo pictures of non-moving scenes:
1) take a picture. 2) move your camera a couple inches to the right. 3) take another picture. 4) use photo manipulation software to join the two pictures together. 5) resize as appropriate.
The reason the Chief Executive can't get away with it now is that these days, (enough of) the general populace regards the Holy Supreme Court's pontifications as equivalent to the Commands of God.
The American people would have his hide for such Heresy.
So, basically, it's a scintillator. The neon gas glows with secondary photon emission for a short while when bombarded by a few photons of laser light. Nothing new here.
What I'd like to know is who's the asshole that designed the functionality into JavaScript that allows it to take control of stuff that it has no business taking control of, such as window decorations, URL bar, status bar, right click menu, etc.

You fail Critical Thinking 101. You can't get an "ought" from an "is". See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is-ought_problem The fact that certain behaviors among animals can be observed in nature doesn't imply any moral (or amoral) imperative among humans. There are lots of things animals do that no one would consider OK for humans to do.

Indeed.
And the Chili Works breakfast burritos make it worth living here for awhile.
I thought there were already laws against bill collector harassment.
It requires, probably, sending a registered "drop dead" letter.
Or even worse, when you answer and a computer asks you to wait on hold until the bill collector is done dealing with someone else...

SSN's for dead people aren't secret.
You can look 'em up here.
... then I didn't take a picture!
Although that Little Boy replica at Los Alamos might not be as accurate as the previous one they used to have. See here.
... of both Fat Man and Little Boy.
See here, for example.
...Alliteration.
That's kind of a faith-based, arbitrary definition of the beginning human life, isn't it?
Let's be scientists here.
Lots of things are alive that don't have consciousness and thought.
Right.
Because #44 will "restore science to its rightful place."
Which is somewhere above ethics, apparently.

It would be stupid, but it wouldn't be discrimination if it applied to every one equally.

No, but if they make any genetic modifications that result in flavor^h^h^h^h^h^h money enhancement, you betcha they'll patent THAT.
You suffer from Bush Derangement Syndrome.
Get help.

Film?
What's that?
"It's a cookbook!"
Well, it's better than this.

OK. Just press the 'any' key.

That person oughtta be lynched.
