  1. Re:Contrarian views on Lockheed Martin Hardware to Protect NYC Transit · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You have many errors in your post but I will pick on just one:

    Al Queda has gone from a despised group of loonies to the heroes of the oppressed in the muslim underclass...

    In reality they aren't the oppressed underclass at all. In contrast they are often well to do people with good jobs and secular educations, many at english schools. They own their own houses, cars and businesses. This isn't a case of the squirrely looking guy marginalized and outcast from society. Aside from their radical fundementalist Ismalic views they are seemingly main stream members of society.

    How grand.

    Oh, shut up you fat bloated American pig. There are three billion, yes three billion people on this planet who live on less than $2 a day. Given the rates of starvation disease and suffering in the world the workers at ecs live a relatively good life. Not everyone has the luxury of being born rich in a country full of starbucks latte sipping, SUV driving fatties. And don't say you earned it because you didn't do a damn thing. Most people on this planet work far harder than you do.

    I think CEO is a nice place to start. If you can't get that then maybe settle for COO or Vice President. You've spent too long in school to settle for anything less. Remember always get a job that is above your skill level, it makes life more fun!

    It's not the airlines fault. People simply don't want to pay a premium for those amentities. They want to get their fat lard asses to yonkel town and visit cousin bobby in the cheapest manner possible. You can pay a bit more and leave the unwashed masses to fester in their filth behind the curtian but instead you complain.

    Fair enough. I don't really proof read (or spell check) my slashdot posts.

  16. Re:Shows what I know on Self-Adapting Traffic Lights · · Score: 1

    Yeah but all the "tubbies" that you saw were American tourists on vacation (seriously it's becoming a real problem; they do a lot of damage to roads).

    In all seriousness I agree with you, if you can cross the street without halting traffic that's good but my grandmother can't cross 4 lanes safely that way. Conversely, pedestrians can't cross the street willy-nilly stopping traffic whenever they want. However, culturally and environmentally I see nothing wrong with putting pedestrians first. Like I said in my other post I drive everywhere but I have no problem stopping for pedestrians and if that encourages even a small percentage of people to walk or take public transportation the benefits are much larger than the small cost of stopping some cars.

  17. Re:Shows what I know on Self-Adapting Traffic Lights · · Score: 1

    I never even suggested that the unfriendlyness towards walking was the sole reason for the "obesity epedemic" in the usa. However I think it is a contributing factor. More imporantly I think the attitude towards using ones own legs is distrubing. I myself don't walk anywhere. However, I am happy to stop for those that choose walk, roller blade, or skateboard. And, yes, I keep fit by playing soccer 4 times a week, badminton, gym visits, swimming, and snowboarding on the weekends. I can easily see how americans can do the same; it's not a mystery.

    For the record, I also understand that the usa is a very large place with many pedestrain friendly cities, such as Portland and Seattle etc.

  18. Re:Shows what I know on Self-Adapting Traffic Lights · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Where I live in Victoria BC Canada there are many many cross walks that stop traffic for the lone pedestrian. Victoria is a very pedestrian friendly city and the ability move around using ones own two feet is cherished and rightly so. It is truly sad that cars trump pedestrains in your culuture. Pherhaps this is why so many americans are fat asses?

  24. Re:It's near performance already on Hydrogen Vehicle Generates Its Own Fuel · · Score: 1

    That means you should be about to get about 10 minutes of drive time in only (10,000 j * 60 seconds * 10 minutes / 200 j/s = 30,000 seconds = 500 minutes = 8.3 hours).

    Probably more like 2 minutes.

    You would get 10 minutes of drive time IF... your car output only 13.5 horse power. Your engine is 100% efficient. The bicycle is 100% efficient. The electrolysis/hydrogen collection is 100% efficient. The compression of the hydrogen is free.

    With a 70% efficient engine, using a modest 30 HP, with 80% efficient electrolysis you would have to peddle for 33.2 hours. Better get walking.
