I have browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers set to 3 and go for days, with dozens of open tabs, and firefox stay below (a still rather hefty) 500MB.
The point is that biologists worry less and less about 'species', so pigeonholing them by demanding that they demonstrate a new species every time they talk about evolution is nonsensical.
As far as your Lamarckian accusations, there is evidence that fish of a given maturity are smaller, due to their genetics, rather than due to their lifespan or food availability. It isn't simply a matter of the fish being smaller.
The idea of species is sort of getting tested lately.
For instance, I imagine it would be quite simple to find a pair of dogs (or even a pair of dog breeds) that were entirely genetically compatible, but were, for mechanical reasons, unable to interbreed. Another example, it isn't clear that species, as a concept, can coherently by applied to bacteria.
Also, it depends on how you define evolution; you are using speciation, other people are willing to consider any change in a population that increases its fitness in response to a change in the environment.
I regularly get weeks of uptime (which end when I intentionally reboot...). I think a lot of it is that the initiatives to improve driver quality have actually worked.
Pretty much any light that is on for less than an hour a week. That's less than $1 of electricity a year, saving $0.75 of it with a more expensive, slower, less reliable (IME) bulb, isn't worth it.
I'm as anti-enthusiasm as anybody, but does it pose some problem for you if it is flexible and touch sensitive?
I suppose you might want access to one or the other at a lower price, but I doubt the availability of both in a single screen will have much impact on that.
For small investors, equity investments are much closer to an unsecured loan than they are to ownership (because participating in the market for the shares increases the liquidity of other holders, holders large enough to have some influence over the actions of the company).
I guess my point about encouraging people not to participate is that they idea that things might go badly gets about 1% of the public discourse related to the stock market, which essentially means that the public discourse entirely encourages people to participate.
Educating people and encouraging them not to participate in the stock market (no matter how attractive the returns seem) is probably a better strategy than trying to make sure that the stock market never blows up (because it would limit the broader consequences of blow ups). Throw some separation of concerns into the banking system and things would probably work pretty well (AIG blew up because insurance assets were silently backing hedge-fund style bets, which is stupid).
Hopefully lawmakers make good regulation a goal, rather than extensive regulation.

What's wrong with View->Continuous facing?
(I still use Reader9, but you got modded up...)
Flash? That's what spikes Firefox to 100% for me (albeit, on windows).
Aren't rednecks more likely to be using .308?
Are you running flash (without some sort of selective blocker like Flashblock)? In my experience, it is a hog.
If you are already limiting flash, you might want to look at the rendering cache settings. There is a reasonable explanation here:

Smarter fish!?

It is harder to catch smaller fish (and they require more processing per pound of catch). The decrease in size is detrimental to humans.
So objectively, there isn't anything good or bad about the fish changing, but we are involved and prefer bigger fish.
The implant is low resolution (60 electrodes). To him, looking at a bright light is porn.
That must be a real pain when you disagree with a decision that Canonical or Linus makes (though I suspect you simply ignore it in that case).
Yes, but I don't understand why you leave them on all the time.

They publish extensively. That is quite at odds with your 'never see'.
I suppose you would be better off writing individually to anyone who works there, explaining hoe they are wasting their efforts.
Sure. My point is that if the javascript tasks are long enough, every task will fail.
If the user leaves before a task completes, you don't have anything to reduce.
Why do you have multiple bedside lamps on all the time!?
I found this somewhat startling:

If you create a javascript object named 'sun' (or several other names), netscape and family (including firefox) load java into memory.
I thought they were only offshoring the productive jobs, if they are offshoring the service jobs, we are fucked!
Well, don't roll it up a lot.
As far as the touch screen, if you can't turn it off, I would say it is broken.
The first rule of violent global revolution is that you do not talk about violent global revolution.
