Honda Accord Hybrid: 29mpg city, 37mpg highway Interesting. My Accord non-Highbrid gets ~35 mpg on the highway. No real reason to get it except for the better city driving (I get ~25 mpg on commuting).
Same here but, do you have 265HP on tap? Huh? No? I didn't think so.
What I find most ridiculous is that the same group of people who said that a black man is less than a white man and that kidnapping and enslaving africans was the "white man's burden" are the same group who pretend that they are the worlds single moral authority, and claim that as the basis for everything they are for. Infanticide has a longer history than civilization.
"Group of people"? What group would that be. I hope I am not in your definition of "that group". Should I be worried?
*snip* "how about using said car batteries and other forms of power to power the damned cell sites... much more useful..."
Maybe those car batteries would not power a cell station for long. How about the rest of the infrastructure. If you could power a single cell tower, would it do any good? Don't kick Grandma.
Bush lies in the State of the Union speech about matters of life and death.
"The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."
Ok. Where is the rest of your proof. How is that a lie? The British government still stands by that statement to this day! If you are going to accuse the President of lying, you are going to have to do better than that! I hate it when facts get in the way of ideology.
I wondered how long it would be before even *this* topic would generate some vitriol filled, left-wing screed. Geez, can't we even have fun with farts without going into politics?
> Did you really believe that Eldred v. Ashcroft would fail?
Yes.
> Did you really think copyrights would be extended indefinitely for wealthy content-owners?
Yes. Business as usual. Politicians (of all stripes) are in the pockets of contributers.
Did you ever think corporate giants could shrug off antitrust convictions?
Yes. See above.
> Did you really think the star of Jingle All The Way would be Governor of California?
No. Sometimes I am pleasantly surprised!
> Wake up, not everyone with a contrarian point is a pot-smokin' patchouli-smellin' hippie.
Nor are they a wild-eyed, shotgun-totin' racist redneck. I was just concerned about the public health. All this serious knee jerking could cause injuries and drive up the cost of healthcare!
Ok, You can take off your helmet. The sky is not falling. That is the maximum sentence. Did you *really* believe that it would be imposed? Oh, you did! Sorry.

And during the decades of UN sanctions, did Saddam show any tendency to attack his neighbours or anyone else?
WTF, is this a joke? What are Iran and Kuwait? How about the Kurds?

Yes, you are right! They just are a lot more likely to do it in the appropriate forum!

Ok, This is really getting to be enough! How the F#$* does an article on aviation history turn onto another misinformed lefty screed on "All that is wrong with America"? I thought Slashdot was "News for Nerds", not the Berkely channel!
I have had DirecTivo for about 16 months now. I have also participated in several beta programs.
I clearly remember having to opt-in for the data collection. I am pretty sure they data is collected in conglomerate. I don't believe they specifically chart what I watch.
So what if they know my viewing habits! maybe they will put on more programming *I* like! It's kind of like voting.

Ditto. This sounds like the kind of FUD that Moveon.org would spread.

Um, George Walker Bush is not a junior you dimwit. His father's name in George Herbert Walker Bush you potty mouth.
