    Dream on. If even half of what they predicted was to come true, such as there being no polar ice caps by the year 1998, we would already have a train running into Russia. Oh and when the government scientists predicted there would be no snow past the year 2000, remember that?

    Oh come now, next you'll be saying 19 trillion dollars in debt to countries like China could actually be a problem very soon.

    Christianity never taught people to take money from people by force, ever, not even once, even to give to others. This tired idea gets recycled regularly: since we waste so much taxpayer money on so many worthless things that means we might as well waste it on other useless, counterproductive and even harmful things as well. If the government never had the money to blow on worthless and stupid things to begin with they would only be able to spend it on roads, bridges, and necessary things . A person does not stay unemployed for 50 years. Anyone could find a job in that time or move to a place where they could find a job doing something. This is how we got 19 trillion dollars in debt as a nation.

    With a heavy dose of crony capitalism thrown in. Big business is in league with big media and big government to literally screw any IT worker in this country looking for a job. 92,000,000 people out of work, Microsoft lays off 19,000 while claiming they can't find anyone to work? Pure lies.

    Dickface. It snowed when they said it wouldn't. They were liars like you. We had record amount of sea ice at the South Pole when they said there wouldn't be any at all. They were liars like you. Pull bullshit like this doesn't work. You're not fooling anyone.

  6. This is the second part of your proof that you are not an economist. Our IT director was gone for 2 weeks for vacation. People throughout the company called him about 4 times a day. If say he was gone for 2 months with no phone calls the company would have ground to a halt completely. The company would've lost several hundred million dollars. Believe me when I tell you they are more than willing to pay double or better than what they pay an h 1 b visa worker. Go to your masters back at the Democratic National Committee and tell them that your we are wise to their antics. And take you economics back to Cuba.

    oh you say that now but they were quite sure they wouldn't get stuck last time because there wasn't supposed to be any anywhere! we weren't even supposed to have snow past the year 2001 according to the Hadley climate Research Center. They will get stuck again and they'llbe putting out a story that says something this is not to be construed as not supporting global warming or some other stupid lie like that that dumb people swallow year after year.

    I am sure that this was done by the same bunch of climatologists who got stuck in the ice last year. The same ice that they said would not be there 25 years ago. The same ice that they said was shrinking which was actuallT record-breaking larger than it has ever been before in recorded history. The same bunch that had to be rescued by nice breaking ship which also got stuck in the ice. Some people never learn and they'll be saying the same thing 35 years from now. something like this time is different this time it's going to really really happen. it doesn't and they get quiet for a season and then come back and claim it's really really going to happen this time around.

  11. Re: More ambiguous cruft on The Gap Between What The Public Thinks And What Scientists Know · · Score: 1

    What most people don't understand is the fact that when the media or the government announce something that so called scientists have found they expect you to believe it without question no matter how ridiculous or stupid or verifiably false it may be. This here group of scientists say you should think this way so therefore do so. Nevermind there was a time when actual real scientists put out stuff like some races were inherently superior to others, or some other type of easily provable falsehoods. You should just believe what you're told when we say a scientist says something and you are not to question it. No, fork over your money because a scientist said to do so. They also want you to believe that scientists can not be affected by money or politics. What frustrates them the most is the fact that the brain wash did not work.

    indeed! Sounds that I heard every time I went to the store with my mother as a little kid are now gone forever.

  13. Re: Sorta related... the teletype machine on Ask Slashdot: Sounds We Don't Hear Any More? · · Score: 1

    my father's old University office back in the earlier 80s had many of the sounds you no longer hear. The most distinctive of course was the sound of typewriters typing away. But it wasn't just people typing on typewriters, it was the sound of a word processing typewriter that could store letters and other documents on a little rotating wheel. You would turn the wheel to a certain number, push some buttons after putting in some paper, and it would type the whole thing out at high speed. It gave off a certain odor to it as well that was not unpleasant. Those sounds are gone forever.
