I'll say what I said in an earlier reply: 1980's tech. I had a class with some of the guys who work in the firing room, and they are honestly amazed the shuttle still flies. My dad used to install the thermal tiles, he says that the safety violations and corner-cutting out at the cape are horrendous. Pair that with the old tech, and it's seriously time to replace/upgrade.
HAH, speak for yourself sir.
I live in Titusville, FL, right across the river from the launchpad and the prime spot for watching each launch. The population is 40,000+, but there were literally hundreds of thousands of people here. Jerk tourists that leave Capri Sun and Little Debbie wrappers all over our river. It's not that bad that they're retiring the shuttle; it's running on 1980's technology, for God's sake.

Really? Don't they know their target demographic? I don't know about you guys, but I can already see a battalion of trashy people walking out of Walgreen's with a genetic testing kit in tow. You know, the kind of people who are going to rage when they find out they have to pay for the results and then base life decisions on it, because hey, "I already sunk a hunred' dollahs in tha damn thang!"
What? Are you implying that the need for contraception goes away when you get married? It is this logic that is causing overpopulation.
Unless you're saying that sex stops when you get married, in which case I offer a hearty "DOHOHOHOHO!" to you.
If this is cheap and effective, it sounds like a good decision. If you're in a monogamous relationship, say bye-bye to condoms! You also don't have to subject your female partner to a birth control regimen, which throws her hormones out of whack and can have all kinds of terrible side effects like migraines, random menstrual flow, etc.
Linking your cause to the Tea Party should generate a lot more bad publicity than it does. I mean, how can anyone take them seriously? I understand that they think they're revolutionaries like their forefathers, but when most of your constituents can't even spell "America", how do you expect to get anything done?

Pretty soon we can move on to fining BP off the face of that planet.

AWESOME. If CS:S and HL2 run well in Ubuntu, I now have no reason to keep my Windows partition.

Maybe this will give a wake-up call to the more money-hungry developers out there. I'm looking at you, EA.
Hopefully this won't be bundled with a trojan like MechWarrior 4. THANKS UNCLE BILL.
