  1. I Know a Place with Nothing Important There on SKA Telescope Site Debate Not Over Yet · · Score: 1

    I humbly submit Prairie Chapel Ranch at Crawford Texas, U.S.A. There's nothing there worth more than the advancement of man's understanding of the universe. And It would even raise property values!

  2. 12 o'clock on You're Driving All Wrong, Says NHTSA · · Score: 2

    Being without arms, and a right leg; I use my nose.

  3. Re:Start of political change? Doubtful. on China Unblocks Sensitive Keywords · · Score: 1

    One can only imagine the Cultural Revilotion by watching BMW's, Jaguar's, and Rolls Royce's parading around the Middle Kingdom.

    Of course, the People's Republic can stand in solidarity, against Steel Re-Bar?

  4. Re:Dey Took Our Jerbs (Profits) on US Puts Tariff On Chinese Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    "Green Carpet Baggers?" My, do we even know why this is both funny, and tragic at the same time?

  5. Re:Environmental Politics on US Puts Tariff On Chinese Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    Humanity needs more energy. Oil, and Nuclear combined can't do it, period. There is no evidence that the Oil industry needs governmental aid, so why continue? Because of no evidence, if Oil Executives think otherwise, then they should think of their needs as an unhealthy form of "Dependence", and get medical help, they can still afford health insurance.

  6. Re:Funny stuff here. on US Puts Tariff On Chinese Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    Hate is bad for business. But consider, all those businesses that are going to be impacted by their optimized offshoring. Will they not be the victums? Will the multi billionares not weep? Will wip sawing economies stableize because the playing fields are being leveled?

  7. Re:Where I live on US Puts Tariff On Chinese Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    Is there wind where you live?

  8. Economic War, on US Puts Tariff On Chinese Solar Panels · · Score: 1

    No bodies? No wrecked population centers? And no collasped governments? It's like what Wal-Mart does? Only with the image of Ho-Che-Min smiling.

  9. Re:Fuck GizMag on Researchers May Have Discovered How Memories Are Encoded In the Brain · · Score: 1

    I hope the next part will be mapping the nural connections, then I can access where I put my keys yesterday. And my wifes birthday; geez, the appicaltons I'd have for a Memory Recorder.

  10. Logistical Simulation Determination? on Ask MIT Researchers About Fusion Power · · Score: 1

    I figure everyone that is actively working on this project has an overall understanding as to what needs to be done before their part of the project "kicks in." But what of Logistics? Consider that glory of glories, tomorrow, it works. Someone is going to eventually call up and ask the question, "Great work team! But where do I plug in?"

    I figure, right about now, that in the back of the room that holds the team meeting for this project, 3 or 4 Engineering Gieniuses are vapor locking.

  11. Re:All Comes Down to Wording on NSA Chief Denies Claims of Domestic Spying · · Score: 1

    The key word used that should not be ignroed is "justify."

  12. Re:Wut? on NSA Chief Denies Claims of Domestic Spying · · Score: 1, Redundant

    And rightly so, american government should be afraid of its people. The jails are stuffed with the clueless that were not.

  13. Re:Hmmm... on NSA Chief Denies Claims of Domestic Spying · · Score: 1

    I used to have a lot of respect for General K. Now it sounds like he's "special too" (apologies to Stephen Lynch).

  14. Re:"I Heard Your Giant's Drink Game is Broken?" on Teacher Suspended For Reading Ender's Game To Students · · Score: 1

    It appears that the Ed Code in South Carolina specifically states that reading in class is equivallent to Pronography. Reading to children would be the same as "Child Pronography." What this educator doesn't fully understand is that Pronography is bad, really, really, bad.

  15. Re:All your secrets belong to us... on NSA Building US's Biggest Spy Center · · Score: 1

    T1000's think Skynet is good. Does that count?

  16. Re:Only 1 million square feet? on NSA Building US's Biggest Spy Center · · Score: 1

    I'm wrapping my head around the statement, "going on in Bluffdale." I'm beginning to see an "Gub-ern-ment Entitlement" here...

    "STOP BLUFFING DALE!" you bullies...

  17. Civil Law Is-Greater-Than Criminal Law? on Bring Back the 40-Hour Work Week · · Score: 1

    What is the motovation for an Employer to not cause an Employee to work for Free? If it's not jail time, then it's the cost of doing business.

  18. Re:That's what America needs to be competitive! on Bring Back the 40-Hour Work Week · · Score: 1

    Talk's cheap, go for it.

  19. More Side Effects? on Algorithm Finds Thousands of Unknown Drug Interaction Side Effects · · Score: 1

    Time to invest in stocks that manufacture pill bottle labels.

  20. Re:Use of these nomad planets as "stepping stones" on Nomad Planets: Stepping Stones To Interstellar Space? · · Score: 1
