Plant a tree, move closer to your work, sell your car and instead use car sharing services and transit. Stop telling "us" what to do and make definitive changes yourselves.
I am not a greenie and I don't tell others what they should or should not do
That's completely not true. Comcast is working hard on improving transmission speeds over their slow speed lanes. They're going to have facilities on the peaks of mountain ranges that transmit the information via semaphore flags.
Actually I think scientists have an insight into theology that actual theologians lack. Religious and tribal instincts were shaped by evolution, since they conferred a selective advantage to early humans. Back in the Stone Age, if someone shared your religion, you'd probably have more genes in common with them than with people of other faiths, and you're more likely to befriend and ally with them. But, it's a one way street. Aside from being research subjects, theologians have nothing to offer in return except for denial.
A scientist who claims that science proves religion if far more likely to be invalid! Why? Because religion involves that which is outside the natural world while science is about the natural world. Neither the supernatural or natural can be used to prove or disprove the other.
Since I'm not a teacher, I'd actually be interested if you have an actual story to tell. But AFAICT from your post, you're just someone who loathes his ex-coworkers and is making generalizations about them. If the "real issue" is "lazy teachers", you can at least explain why. Were they not showing up for work? Were they disregarding parental fears of vaccinations? Were they not teaching them about Christ or something? Did the kids get low test scores? What?
There are no new experiments, only new analysis of old experiments.
Whew, I heard gunfire last night and at first thought some thug physicist was firing neutrinos down the street. "What if one strikes a nucleus and releases a positron?" I wondered. That's weak!
Time zones aren't even the major issue. I had a job where I had to be on site during the AM hours and telecommute during the PM hours (long story). It was MUCH more difficult to get anything done at home. When you can't shout minor little questions out to anyone who might be in earshot, you have to communicate them electronically, which is more awkward and time-consuming, so you naturally try to figure stuff out for yourself first before bothering people that way. Some of the ordinary snags and obstacles you encounter during a workday will then balloon into frustrating barriers that trick you into wasting hours going down blind alleys without realizing it. It made me realize how much information you get just from overhearing casual chats around coffee machines.
I've lived all over the U.S.A. for decades, near plenty of stupid people, and I have never heard anyone use the phrase "on accident" in my life. That's the type of error you see in technical manuals from Asian countries. People do say "on purpose", which can easily confuse people who learn English as a second language into saying "on accident" instead of "by accident".
To spot Americans with two-digit IQs on the Internet, look for two unforgivable homonym goofs: confusion between "they're", "their", and "there", and also between "you're" and "your". Those are big warnings that you're reading something stupid written by a native-English speaker. Foreigners don't seem especially prone to goof over these words, but half-illiterate native English speakers just type the way they hear themselves talk, and if it passes the spell check they'll remain oblivious.
That was too funny not to search for; it obviously got taken down from github, but someone posted the (very NSFW).zsh_history on a paste site when the story broke in 2012. If you search for lines starting with "mplayer", you can see how they're clustered into several obvious jerkoff sessions... ROTFL! The file names were so sick they made my eyes pop open.. I had to push them back into their sockets!
This wins the prize for the worst commit I've ever seen. There's a lesson for pedophiles here: echo ".zsh_history" >>.gitignore
I think Seth Rogen and James Franco should make dictator-mocking their shtick- they're way more likely to succeed with that strategy than anything they'll dream up by themselves. The jokes practically write themselves; in fact KJU is the only interesting character in this movie. So here are some ideas for sequels:
Benjamin Netanyahu: While on a trip to congratulate Netanyahu for winning a beauty pageant, Rogen and Franco realize that he won by launching missiles at all the other contestants.
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi: Rogen and Franco are held hostage by the ISIS leader until he realizes that nobody in the U.S. cares if their heads get chopped off.
Vladimir Putin: Rogen and Franco score an interview with the shirtless ruthless dictator. Unfortunately Franco enters the country with a dollar bill in his pocket and inadvertently causes a currency crisis. Then one day Rogen drinks tea laced with polonium 210 and things get wild.
Once the Trans Pacific Partnership goes through, the North Korean government can be sued by Comcast for failing to honor the company's right to throttle bandwidth across the North Korean border. There will be a "fast lane", but also an "extra fast lane" which will allow Kim Jong Un to watch The Interview through a gateway that uses TWO 56K modems instead of just one. If North Korea does opt for a fast lane, the NSA will have only half the time to flag his tweets as Inappropriate before they finish uploading.

Half of the petitions were anti-NN, and mostly came from a Koch-backed organization's form letter:
Dear Mr. Wheeler,
As an American citizen, I wanted to voice my opposition to the FCC's crippling new regulations that would put federal bureaucrats in charge of internet freedom, and urge you to stop these regulations before they're enacted.
If the federal government goes through these plans to regulate the internet, I know that the internet will change -- and not for the better.
[ INSERT VARIANT PARAGRAPH COMMENT HERE ]
Like many Americans, I believe that the internet should remain free of government control and unnecessary regulation -- just as it has for the last twenty years of unprecedented growth.
Please stop the FCC's dangerous new regulations, and protect the future of internet freedom here in America.
Sincerely,
[APPLICANT NAME]

As for the "VARIANT PARAGRAPH COMMENT", apparently you were given several selections to choose from, including the following:
The Internet is the biggest economic, intellectual, and artistic success story of the century, and it rose up because of free people, not stifling government. The federal government needs to keep its hands off the Internet. It is not broken, and it does not need to be fixed. It is the federal government, not the Internet, that is broken, and in need of fixing.
One can make an appeal to justice for persecuted cable companies:
Before our government can handcuff a citizen, it must have some reasonable evidence that they have done something wrong. Before the FCC places regulatory handcuffs on Internet providers, shouldn't the government present evidence that they have actually done something wrong?
Or maybe this is your style:
The ideological leader of the angry liberals calling for you to reduce the Internet to a public utility is Robert McChesney, the avowed Marxist founder of the socialist group Free Press. In an interview with SocialistProject.ca, McChesney said: âoeWhat we want to have in the U.S. and in every society is an Internet that is not private property, but a public utility...At the moment, the battle over network neutrality is not to completely eliminate the telephone and cable companies. We are not at that point yet. But the ultimate goal is to get rid of the media capitalists in the phone and cable companies and to divest them from control.â In a country of over 300 million people, even an extremist like McChesney can find, perhaps, millions of followers. But you should know better than to listen to them.
Kim Jong Un is exactly the type who would accept undeserved credit for a cyberattack. "What, who me? I did what? Uh... oh really? Oh! OK, yeah everybody, I did it!"
If we start doing major exploration of deep space we're gonna need to use less ambiguous names for the sun and moon, as other planets may have a sun and moon.
We will never do major exploration of deep space where we get closer to another star than to this one. If we do, humanity can define two constants in file headers.
My "Brainfuck for Dummies" book will have a lot of buggy sample code now that Amazon has decided I can only make 1 decrement per 10000 instructions. So I have to implement Brainfuck unit tests... and I just finished the chapter on how to write the code delinter and the JIT compiler!

So now it's that much easier for some sexually repressed prude to complain they saw a nipple at halftime or something, and ruin it for the rest of us.
That's already happened at a public library.
As of Nov. 2014, yes.
I can't fill out the form because my Comcast connection is loading fcc.gov at 300 baud.

It would if it was hosted on a Mac OS X server somewhere...

Yes i do.
Then why are you keeping it a secret?
The real issue is that there needs to be a clean out of lazy teachers and administration that refuses to interact with parents
Do you have any basis for that assertion, other than your resume?
I had one of those LED light bulbs and it stopped working one day. Since I'm 44, I was able to fix it with a soldering iron.

It is a good tip for reducing the amount of astroturfing. I'm sure the FCC will get right on that very soon.

I have to stay more up to date on what Kim Jong Un is doing...
