Doctors are surprised that the 'Swine Flu' has persisted into the spring and summer, seeing that cases are still popping up into mid-June. Something is not typical regarding this virus. The real threat is that a much more virulent variant of this strain will emerge this fall, killing a higher percentage of its victims.
Consider the word "Consider". Con- is a variant of com- that means 'Together' or 'with' and -sider, meaning 'the stars'. So when you consider something, you're consulting the stars!
I thought it strange, too, since there's a station on 88.9 running 17.5 kW ERP whose antenna is much closer to the channel 6 tower. The TV6 transmitter is running 410 kW ERP. The bluegrass station is running a measly 380 W ERP, but seems to have lots of antennas in the works.
UPDATE: There's a letter in WWED's correspondence file that says they can't ramp up due to Title 47, Part 73.525 - Channel 6 protection.
The big difference for me are the sub-channels that you can get OTA. At least 3 of my local channels carry sub-channels, two of which are 24/7 local weather. My dish network subscription doesn't carry these.
Curiously, an FM radio station I'd like to listen to says they'll be able to throttle up the power once NTSC station WTVR channel 6 in Richmond goes silent.
I don't know what rule is limiting their transmission on 89.5 MHz due to interference with TV channel 6 (82-88 MHz, with the video carrier on 83.25 MHz and the audio carrier on 87.75 MHz).
I suppose it's an IF thing, but I can't figure out how 10.7 MHz or 45 MHz fits in there.
Sad. I remember seeing it as a child, but since then light pollution has slowly strangled the beauty out of the night sky.
I've lived within a mile of this intersection all my life, and thanks to Route 295 and all of the unnecessary yuppie subdivisions, 'seeing' has really declined. Most nights I'm lucky to see delta Ursae Majoris (Mag 3.32) clearly. I love watching satellite passes, and mag 3.3 or brighter really limits the ones I can see.
Compare This 1969 topo map of the area with a current one, and you'll see the changes in roads and land use.
Yes, pray do continue. How many of each type of aircraft were flying? 8 crashes out of 10,000 Boeing planes is a lot better than 3 out of 2,000 Airbus planes (made-up numbers, of course).
Also, how many flight miles are we talking? How many flight legs? There are many ways to look at this - raw counts of crashes really doesn't mean much.
I'd rather have those sorts of improbable situations handled by the computer than by a human who just had the problem dumped in his lap by a computer that up until then had been compensating for all sorts of sensor failures. The pilot, I bet, would not have the situational awareness to handle it properly once the computer gave up.

Yes, to look for things like missile launches and %$^%@#$# CARRIER LOST
As Willy Wonka said, "The suspense is killing me. I hope it lasts."
"the exponential trends continue to be exponential"
They didn't say that the exponent was necessarily > 1.

Are you prepared to deal with 1 in 200 people around you dying?
Only if I get to choose who lives and dies.
You know, that sounds like a wonderful way to go.
He died of "The Bacon Lung."
Oh, he died happy, then.
So that'll give us H6N2, right? Or maybe 5 * H-squared, N-squared? 8-)

Maybe someone should set the text of Brin's ranting and raving to the clip from Valkyrie like they did for The Downfall of Agile Hitler.
The likely procedes, however,...
Aaargh!!

You actually support the mafia? Shame on you!
And a dihedral die would be a coin.

A well trained pilot would know when to trust the computers and when not to.
Your post highlights the need for pilots to know when to trust computers, especially the one between their ears.
"Welcome to Earth. We taste terrible, by the way."
"Cool beans" is a saying from the 1980's. I find myself still using it long after its expiration date, which tends to attract strange stares.
As have I. Perhaps, harryandthehenderson, you just aren't listening?
Yet I consider all of those 'alive', regardless of your choice of terminology.
That would be gall, unless you're implying that the French are sub-human.
