Although you are basically right you lack the facts. Economic models are mistakenly based on the idea that you could generalize outdated physics equations to cover a concept called "utility." Total fucking bullshit. Economics is not science. SciAm had a short cutting and concise article on it. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=the-economist-has-no-clothes
According to Neil Stephenson in the Cryptanomicon (sp?) They had post cataract soldiers in a row boat and on shore and used UV lights to meet. The German soldiers could not see UV so they were blind to the lights.
According to the some Toaists if you spend 21 days in total darkness the brain converts melatonin to tryptophan then to 5meoh-DMT then to DMT (most powerful hallucinogen in the world.) After 14 days or so people claim to be able to see in UV and IR. This is before the ass-kicking drugs kick in.
You cold use a UV flashlight to illuminate object and see the reflections that we cannot. Apparently bees see in UV so many flower intricacies are lost on us.
1st amendment, the most protected form of speech, foundation of our whole society and what's more they are being Republicans, they are protesting socialization of risk.
Well if you are a homophobic troll the chances are that you are looking forward to it because the simple fact is that the more homophobic you are the more likely you are to get an erection watching gay porn.
Moyers: What happens to the idea of the dignity of the human species if population growth continues at its present rate?
Asimov: It will be completely destroyed. I will use what I call my bathroom metaphor. Two people live in an apartment and there are two bathrooms, then both have the freedom of the bathroom. You can go to the bathroom anytime you want, and stay as long as you want, for whatever you need. Everyone believes in the freedom of the bathroom. It should be right there in the Constitution. But if you have 20 people in the apartment and two bathrooms, no matter how much every person believes in the freedom of the bathroom, there is no such thing. You have to set up times for each person, you have to bang at the door, "Aren't you through yet?" and so on.
The same way democracy cannot survive overpopulation. Human dignity cannot survive it. Convenience and decency cannot survive it. As you put more and more people into the world, the value of life not only declines, it disappears. It doesn't matter if someone dies. The more people there are the less one individual matters.
On another note why does EA remake shit like this? They could have just called it Cyberpocolypse or Billy Menumonic or some other title and it would have been exactly the same. This looks about as cyber punk as any other Castel Wolfenstien remake. Where is the sky the color of a TV tuned to a dead channel? Where is the deliverator? Where is the ketamine? Where is Reason? Where are the prostitutes who use roofies until they wake up covered in blood? If you want a non stop shoot em up with a few side games just go ask Iain M. Banks for some rights. If you want a extremely complicated idea about the structure of the human mind and how that can be viewed through the prism of hyper connected data driven world with subtexts of machine programing humans I think FPS is not the muse of choice. How long have we been waiting for a Neuromancer movie? Why can't Chris Cunningham, Danny Bole, and James Cameron just walk into the studio and grab the execs by the balls and yell "GIVE US THE FUCKING RIGHTS ASSHOLES!" Ahhh but I digress.
$299 Lenovo AMD Fusion in 15.6 body. They asked me if I wanted to pay for this "service." I told them to fuck themselves. I swore I would never darken their door after they once basically refused to sell me something without my zip code.
Yeah right Koch Brothers Troll. Right now Social Security taxes and bond sales to the Chinese and Arabs pay for the highway system. Put a weight mile tax with a multiplier for studded tires and single occupancy on every car, truck and bus and then divide the total cost of the roads and apply it evenly. I am sure you would shit a brick and what it really costs to drive.
It is not fair if you drive off road. I pay to maintain my roads on my tree farm; it is expensive. I can't get the fucking bureaucracies in the state government to do their jobs and update their maps when I build new ones or repair existing ones which has permitting effects. I know this is a rare activity but it exists.
The cost benefit ratio for people just getting in a car by themselves and being single car commuters is still to low. Change that equation far enough through traffic, costs, or incentives and maybe they will walk a block and then get on a bus or ride a bike, Just those two things would probably save the US billions in health care alone.
"Who cares if there is no gas revenue for electric cars. It's not like they are actually harmful to anything."
Because they are powered by coal? Don't get me wrong I think electric cars are better but "harmless"? Um... fuck no. Once again we would get a lot more bang from our buck burning the gas in a 90% efficient gas turbine then transporting and implementing it is electrons.
Also wear and tear. Friction is a bitch and degrades roads, even in small cars. Not to mention the manufacturing process.
Um? WTF are you talking about. Economists do not set policy. The "Tea Party" or The Dominists as I like to call them are actively trying to destroy and discredit the federal government so that they can A: get that black man out of office, and B: work towards their goal of moving to theocracy. Economists, climate scientists, and any one else with an education is derided by the anti-intellectuals as they drive this county into the fucking ground. Why are we letting these fucks start a cultrual revolution in this country?

Look at Ubiquiti and Ruckus. Both are doing really interesting stuff.

I loved this game. Group of four guys with mini guns mowing down everyone in their path. Good times. Still only a pale shadow next to Stacontrol 2.

In Oregon what about studded tires?
If you tax by odometer than Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman are well and truly fucked.

There are also bacteria that eat diesel and lower its store energy.
Massive savings in infrastructure spending.
