about astronomy. Time and time again those kooks made wild-ass claims to get the media's attention, and they never delivered. Not once. Over and over again, they lie and claim there are going to be visible meteor storms. In my 52 years, I have never seen one. Not one. They lie. I've spent many hours with a telecope looking for comets, and again, they lied. I haven't seen a one. I even borrowed a $3k telescope from work to try to see Hailey's commet. I didn't see that comet like I couldn't see this one last fall. They also lie about being able to see other planets. The evening news here even quoted a liar professor from the Univeristy of Washington claiming venus could be seen brightly in their shot of the city. I quickly went outside to see the same dot he pointed at, and it didn't take long for me to realize that it was the lights from a plane that landed at Payne Field, probably a Boeing test flight. Again, they lie over and over again. The publicly just doesn't buy their lies any longer. They have no credibility and are responsible for destroying the public's interest in astronomy and space.
By "the public" this guy means people who are just to cheap to afford glasses...
...and don't have any intelligence...
..and don't know how to write. Allow me to add a few examples:
"I haven't seen a one" "The publicly just doesn't buy their lies any longer." and what's a "telecope?" and it's halley's comet.
Dear ISON,
You always were a sociable type. You weren't afraid to come close to our planet. Even if it meant potentially killing us. Were sorry we didn't notice your death.
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes who formulated the clear and present danger test for free speech cases.
There is no clear and present danger. If someone wants to a oppose the draft, he has a right to oppose the draft. Oliver Holmes is in the interest of tyranny rather than of liberty. The draft violates the 13th amendment, anyway.
The whole "OMG cheap guns for criminals" angle is pure FUD.
For now. Tech will get better, faster, cheaper, always.
... and it will still be FUD by definition to assume the worst of said technological development.
Sure, in the future it may lead to cheaper weapons for criminals, but conversely, it will also lead to cheaper weapons for the oppressed. So, unless you're a supporter of fascist totalitarianism, there is an obvious upside.

If not that, how about the guillotine?
Heads usually stay alive for a few seconds after decapitation because they have not run out of blood.
Only with hipsters.
Collected from the NSA's PRISM program I presume? Which does not collect any personal information at all...
Those european communists are at it again!
Bad guys would just tape over the camera.
Common sense, right?
What happens and should happen are separate things.
The concept of the king can do no wrong died a long time ago, got reborn and needs to be killed once again.
You just put yourself on the drone list, buddy.
. . . because there was no reasonable chance of this happening with Lucas. Man, how do you mess up Star Wars?!
Forgotten about JarJar Binks, have you?
I never understood why so many peope hated JarJar. I always thought he was funny.
Hey! We should call it Keystone!!

Yes Metro is dumb. I thought 2-dimensional interface where out years ago. But when we make them baby blue on a green background...
I agree with all my heart, soul, and liver.
NO! We need it to keep us safe from Tea Party terrorists!
Oracle owns Java.
You'd better have a bad karma, troll
Haha

Not for Democrats. They just claim that thy need it.
Amen.

Agreed.
Really, let me call PETA.
