Yeah, really. half of Michigan would be dead within six months from car wrecks. Not to mention that most roads there don't have reflectors and often not even lane lines.
Apparently IE 5/Mac had/has pretty well-done CSS1 support, but its CSS2 support is virtually non-existant. "Well, it's a few years old," you might say, but CSS2 spec was finalized in 1998, long before IE 5.0/Mac was released.
I don't "believe" in evolution. You contend it's some sort of faith. If i was so inclined, I could go out and test the theories put forth on my own and come to the same results.
I will be wholly unconvinced by *any* creation myth as an adequate explanation for anything natural until someone can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there is some sort of conscious creator who directs its will upon the world. That's right: YOU have to convince ME that your preposterous magical bearded man in the sky is in any way responsible for the world around us. I would just as soon believe we were sneezed out by the Great Green Arkleseizure. Until then, that which is explained by evolutionary theory seems to fit the evidence very well.

Not necessarily, look at Pandas. PIcky about breeding, big carnivorous teeth but they eat bamboo. Panda's are pretty much doomed, an evoloutionary dead end. For ever species you see, there were probably dozens of divergences whic were dead ends. Another example is the various branches of hominids, where all but one species (humans) died off.

Not so much. They both wouldn't do anything, just sit and stare at each other. If you rotated one, the other would rotate to compensate, and the first would rotate til it mirrored the first, then they'd both stop at a halfway point. Same with lateral movement. Not nearly as interesting as you'd think:)
They're just not organized enough.
The poor redneck fundies beat those they hate (those who disagree with them) with 2x4s, whereas the rich fundies (Pat Robertson et al.) just buy their way into political influence and legislate for imbalanced/unconstitutional civil rights against those they hate.
And thus you enter the world of Hipsters. The Weezer geek-chic dress code, horn-rimmed glasses, etc etc which are just based on media images of geeks from the past. Check out http://www.hipstersareannoying.com/ and real geeks look like, for example, Brian Bishop.

Your argument if full of logical fallacies. Sorry, you lose. http://www.buffaloatheists.com/articles/logical-fa llacies.htm

If they come, we'll just round up the aliens and throw 'em into a volcano. Yeah, that sounds plausible!
