People have lost the ability to shut up. You see less and less people NOT talking on a phone. Even with the threat of a BIG ticket, i can't drive to work without seeing at least one or two people on their phone behind the wheel, not paying attention to the road...
If electric cars become a bigger seller than gasoline powered ones, the executives of oil companies will take action to sabotage the electric car industry!
Books and libraries, also newspapers and periodicals, are quickly becoming obsolete. With the internet, cellphones, Kindles, Tablets, Blackberries and a few other things... info has become easier and more plentifully obtainable (and more fun) than what boring environmentally burdensome books or newspaper can provide! Say goodbye to paper, especially phonebooks!
We can save money and the environment. These days, "libraries" are just about little more than free "internet cafes" anyhow. People go there when their home PCs are on the fritz or they don't own one. This is the age of technology!
This is the best example: We're all online reading news websites every day. We don't need to buy newspapers. This is more fun and more updated and more colourful and less messy and less burden AND it's interactive. It's what makes news sites fun!
i'm a paleontologist by profession, and i can note that those who do indeed wash their hands "correctly" are almost ALL employed either in medicine or the sciences. The others (the 97%) don't feel the need. Who is right and who is wrong? i can't say, because i've also noticed, the human race is not exactly going extinct...
You mean the fools don't realize why?
Over the past billions of years, moon rock has absorbed enough solar radiation helium-3 that one single Space-shuttle load of just 25 tons would be able to power all the electrical needs of the entire United States for a year!
It's the fuel source of the future. So YES, you better believe humans will indeed be back up there collecting it.
What NASA really needs to do is send a marine robot to Neptune or Enceladus or Europa, maybe even Titan. Equip it with a melter on its undercarriage for ice surfaces. The best chance of finding some form of life is in water, not a dry barren waste like Mars. By now, they should've realized... Mars is a "failed" planet. It almost had the potential to be an Earth, but it didn't quite take. They may (or may not) one day find fossils on Mars of some extremely early bacteria, but that's all they'll ever find. (Unless they discover some sort of evidence of visitation... but then again, why would anyone have an interest in such a boring planet... except for us)

That's what got cigarette manufacturers successfully sued by people who CHOSE to smoke :-)
That's a crime?!
Finally. Kaley CooCoo may've looked nice, but what a stupid show.

Looks like a roller skate!
i say anyone who tampers with the internet used in the U.S. should burn for it. That's how important it's become to regular every-day life...
The Smartphone rules the world today...

They'll need it. The day of the Terminator isn't too far off...
That means he'll be in U.S. custody very soon after...
With the unbelievable amount of money they're making by turning those comic books into movies these days, it should balance out...
http://www.newser.com/story/25... Oh those wealthy people...

There is a 100% chance that there's life on other worlds besides Earth!
