How is the above post "Interesting"? How would the poster suggest parents deal with the problem of child safety/misbehavior when the child is inbetween supervisors? Not all parents can pick up and drop off their kids right at school. Sure, mutual trust can go along way, but only so far.
I'm with the people that this will only go so far to deter determined children or criminals, but it's hardly the danger to parental responsibility that people are making it out to be.
I could have sworn that the name of it was "Blue Collar Man," or something like that. IMDb doesn't seem to have heard of it. The pool hall scene was the only memorable one.

Rarely do I hear scientific information passed off as fact. Almost always do I hear "to the best of our understanding," "scientists now believe," etc. Of course, this is tiresome, so many people just take it as read and leave it out. No one seriously believes that science (or anyone) has the whole story. What we have are well-reasoned theories based on current data. When new data comes in, we either change the theory or show how the theory explains the data. I'm sorry you ever thought that anyone had the bottom line.
Your beliefs are up to you. I prefer tried and tested theories that may be wrong but can offer some explanation and a little mystery, rather than "eternal truth" which offers little explanation and a lot of mystery.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

You can't get to the information in the entangled photons until you get the results of the measurements of your pal on the other end. You get those at lightspeed or slower. So, no FTL comm. Sorry.
Actually, quantum entanglement is a very popular method that people suggest for communicating instantly. However, it doesn't work quite how you might think. Quantum measurements are random and two separated observers can't get any useful information from each other without correlating their results. This correlation has to be via non-quantum communication which is currently restricted, AFAWK, to lightspeed.
Without a magnetic field, any moons of this planet will probably suffer intense radiation, both from the sun and the giant planet they orbit. There's a little more too it than water and distance from the sun.
I've been feeling quite blue since the crystals I grew
Became too big to fit through the door
But from slices I've sold, Hewlett-Packard, I'm told,
Made a chip that was seven-foot-four.
From "Home On Lagrange."
YOU obviously have nothing better to do than throw this tired, pointless objection in the face of phenomenal scientific accomplishment. Why don't you leave us alone and fold some proteins or something?
I totally agree that robots are the way to go in space exploration. However, I don't give a damn about the environment (except for those stupid six-pack holders).

Key point ==> is Evolution is the ONLY theory that explains how something like this beetle could have evolved.
That's a tad circular, don't you think? Creationism can't explain how something like this beetle could have evolved, but it doesn't seek to do that.
It's the newer models that are in demand now, not these old ones. I shall probably have to sell it at a loss.
1200 is all I can offer you.

What's a job like that pay? What qualifications does one need?

That's a different experiment involving a probe-launched copper projectile. It's called, of course, Deep Impact.
... that you can double check.
But we could always land robotic miners and have them fire refined ore toward the moon. A little dangerous but what the heck?
We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.
No, but I have heard them use terminology like "hit," "break," "fracture," and "pirate." Wait, that last one might have been "pyrite."
Would you like it better if they used more technical terms?

Yes, it was, but it was an asteroid not a comet. I'm not sure if the projectile was copper or not.
What you seem to be saying is that it's impossible to prove anything, even mathematically. That it?
