In fairness to the city/highway split, there are people who wind up driving more in one mode or the other. I had a commuter car that hit the highway mileage pretty consistently (32mpg) for most of 2 years. Then I switched jobs, and for the next 2 years got 20mpg, because I was no longer doing a highway commute.
I'm sorry, but helping along the killing of others because it feeds your family just doesn't qualify for moral behavior.
The engineers who help build the electric chairs, the gallows, the furnaces. They all share in the responsibility. The government can pass all the laws it wants, if no one will make possible their enforcement, there won't be a problem.
Lots of people have to play along to allow these things to happen. Pushing the blame around just allows everyone to escape responsibility.
I've visited most of the major urban centers in the southeast. They were all packed with racists willing to put down blacks in public venues. I don't know what part of the south you live in, but try visiting California for a while, then go back to the southeast and see if you don't suddenly notice the horrifically widespread racism.
(Both working and shopping in retail stores, I see plenty of people just drop items anywhere they feel like it, instead of returning it to its rightful shelf-space. This causes plenty of inventory and cleaning problems, but hey, it's not my problem, right?)
That helps create jobs. Acting in that manner is so morally right, you're pretty much required to do it if you're a decent person.
I don't know about the universe, but I know a fair amount about modern physics theory. My claim is about current physics theory, not about the state of the universe, except to the extent that current physics theory reflects the actual nature of the universe.
That's not the going physical theory. Our best understanding is that these events are truly random, knowledge that would make it possible to predict them simply does not exist inside the universe.
and some still believe that chilly weather conditions are the cause of the common cold*. But I want it out of the scientific litterature.
*hygiene, people! HYGIENE!
Yes, that's why colds are uncorelated with the seasons. (Actually, they are, but it's because people don't like to wash their hands in warm water during cold weather). No wait, I'm confused, that doesn't make sense.
Free will is also allowed to come out of the purely random events in the universe, of which we've documented plenty. Thus the long term path of events universe is not determined by physical laws. Fully natural free will can exist.
because apparently I have no hope of changing it...
You've got it now. That's determinism. The choices you'll 'make' that will affect how your life 'goes' have been set since the beginning of time. It's all just chemistry and physics at the bottom.
Heh, you're lucky you quit watching, it got worse. There was even an episode where the premise was they were going to let some people off the ship if they lacked confidence in Janeway's leadership, and no one took the offer. It was hilarious.
Surely he'd lose that contest. MGM is a huge entity, so it would either properly be represented by a team of players, or a computer. Either way, I'd expect him to get sufficiently tired and make a mistake before the MGM side does.
I don't see much of a need for a seal at all: run all your plumbing down hill in a pipe that extends into a gap in the central column, have that gap slope downhill into collector tubes. I guess you might need to flush that once in a while.
With a lowball estimate of $1600/pound, presumably you'd need only grow something like 5 pounds per month to cover your rent and utilities and whatnot.
The problem of course, is that if the windows are see-through for maximum sunlight, you have issues with the police/neighbors being able to notice.

I get pretty consistently below sticker on my toyota camry. (Driving in CA)

There are lots. Try isotopic decay for one.
I would be surprised if either such proof were made convincingly.
You can't know that unless the universe is in fact deterministic and we have no free will.

I can't help but cheer you on for understanding this. I also can't moderate you up, but that's because of being banned from moderation, not free will.
There's solid scientific evidence that brain development doesn't really settle down until age 25.6 87-2005Jan31.html

Feel free to read my linked source material, that's why it was there, duh.
You have to think nationwide, not just whatever city you're in.

I give more of my wealth, so finally the recognition I deserve!
Indeed, and guess which language was in slow decline when it was the most requested language in the job market.
Because they could double your productivity for $4000?
How much would it cost them to hire another you?
Sure, if you want to live in a run down half-room shack that you bought. His numbers are to rent vs buy an equivalent home.
