  1. Re:Immediately followed by killer tornadoes on Carbon Emissions Reached Record High In 2010 · · Score: 2

    There actually hasn't been a larger number or tornados in the U.S. this year, compared to recent years. Just more of them have been hitting towns and cities this year. Better aim?

    Yeah, sure but do you see anyone with real money in the game thinking these scenarios may come to pass? I mean, besides insurance companies and the military. Sure, they're making plans and acting like global warming and it's probable effects are likely but what about important people like radio talk show hosts and reactionary bloggers?

    Currently, some of the main convection involves warm air rising from the equatorial areas, spreading north and south and then descending. Where this hot dry air comes down, we find desert belts. One forecasted result of increased global temperatures is that these desert belts will move further north and south. Which will suck as I currently live in the south west. Property around the Great Lakes is looking better and better. Just wish the U.S. had some national labs up in Canada so I could live on the clean side of the border.

    Yeah, I'm still using my 2007 dual core Mac Pro (2.26 GHz Xeon) w/8GB RAM, running latest OS X, as well as WinXP/Win7/RHEL 5.6 on VMWare. Just can't justify upgrading a perfectly good machine.

    Gibson's initial idea for it was seeing people in a video game arcade (any y'all remember those?) and how each person seemed to be lost in their own private world created by the machine they were at. Pretty wild to go from that to the Sprawl world.
