a) Everybody in Iran with a Stuxnet-infected computer is going to be trying desperately to get rid of it and everybody in Iran with a computer that they even suspect may be infected with anything is going to be trying to read up on Stuxnet. They are not going to believe that it won't harm their systems. They are going to believe that every little glitch might be Stuxnet come to steal their secrets (whether they have any or not).
b) If most of the Iranian traffic to these sites was coming from people at the the Iranian nuclear facilities studying Stuxnet there would be very little of it because there would not be all that many people assigned to such research.
Once you've had a credible religious experience, it's impossible to NOT believe in God. Once you've seen an elephant, it's impossible to NOT believe in elephants, and arguing elephants' existance is a lost cause.
Wrong. Having seen an elephant I am almost completely certain that they exist but I do not find it inconceivable that you could produce evidence that would convince me that I was fooled. That illustrates the fundamental difference between a religious and a scientific world view.
"Dark matter" is not a theory. It is a label for a set of observed phenomena. Galaxies move as though they contained something that does not interact electromagnetically ("dark") but does interact gravitationally ("matter").
...almost certainly exists and is probably caused by human activity.
However, every time I read one of these discussions I feel bad about agreeing with a bunch of religious zealots who deliberately use terms such as "denier" to smear those who disagree with them.
CP violation has already been observed. This theory provides a mechanism whereby it can account for both dark matter and the matter-antimatter imbalance.
Cape Canaveral is a geographic feature. It is the site of Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Adjacent is Merritt Island, the site of NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Spacecraft are launched from both the station and the center.
The Dragon will carry up to seven passengers. Soyuz is good for only three. It's also good to have at least two different kinds of passenger craft. The freight model Dragon also has a much larger capacity than the Progress (though smaller than that of the ATV). It has both pressurized and unpressurized compartments, and I believe it can handle larger (though not heavier) objects than the ATV can. It can also return cargo to Earth. Thus it does not merely duplicate existing capabilities (once the shuttles retire).
...Google does not want to take away my capslock key. They want to not install one on a product they intend to make. If it's important to you don't buy the product. If it's really important tell them why you don't intend to buy the product. But don't act as though their decision as to how to design their product is some sort of outrageous infringement on your rights.
I wouldn't miss it myself, and it makes sense to leave it off a compact machine where space is at a premium.
...when you block ads, you're basically taking and not giving back to the free service you are using.
You are free to block users who block ads. If you don't want me to see your pages why do you send them to me when I request them?
Did you know that slashdot has ads on the site? One of them is about WoW and the other one is a IBM ad. Then on the right side there's a Marketplace and google ad spot.
So nothing I would be interested in. In any case if I stopped blocking ads I'd be "taking" from the advertisers by your lights since I would never buy their products.
Of course, I might not bother to block ads if they weren't designed to be annoying...

...politically-correct organizations who will decide what we need to see and what would "confuse" us.
Bugger that. Release all of the raw data to the public or you're no better than Fox News and Huffington Post.
That would also work if you were in the 19th century.
You know of something about the platypus that falsifies evolutionary biology theory?

Since when has anything he said had any relevance to science?
Which one?
> OTOH if the latter required a pegasus feather, it would not be testable.
Sure it would. It would just have to wait until biology has advanced to the point where we can manufacture a pegasus.
> Didn't they also find more stars in galaxies recently...
Yes.
> ...even [lowering] their dependence on "dark matter".
No. The masses of galaxies are not determined by counting stars.
CP violation has already been observed. This theory provides a mechanism whereby it can account for both dark matter and the matter-antimatter imbalance.
I don't think this theory requires any new quarks.
Return on investment is part of the cost.
How much it costs is how much you have to pay for it.
The Falcon uses liquid fuel. The Shuttle SRBs are solid fuel rockets using APCP. The aluminum in the APCP produces lots of white smoke.

Right. Obviously, it should be in Sweden.

In fact, you have more choice.

Have you filed similar bugs against all of Mozilla's products?
Unfortunately, as the Chinese demonstrated with their last one, "intercepts" don't bring anything down. They just create a cloud of shrapnel.
