No, it was wasn't global cooling, they were calling it the next ice age in second grade...hard to forget something like that, but then it was the ozone hole (See Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery).
Technically we are still in an ice age in an interglaciation period. See Ice Age
I did that. No guns though (not necessary). It actually eliminates 99% of all problems that people complain about on the internet. With modern technology, it takes about 3 acres/person to be self sufficient.
I used to feel sorry for most people, but not really anymore as they seem to be part of their own problems and more content whining than doing anything about it.
Five hundred years ago there were no permanent large coastal cities in the US. The total number of people living in North America at the time s estimated toe be between 2-18 million. NYC didn't hit a million people until the 1870's.
Says someone who didn't read the Rogers Commission Report including Feynman's addendum where NASA actually believed their own (completely made up) hype about 1 loss per 100,000 missions.
Note also that the exact same causes were also listed as contributing factors in the loss of the Columbia.

In this work, Ortega traces the genesis of the "mass-man" and analyzes his constitution en route to describing the rise to power and action of the masses in society. Ortega is throughout quite critical of both the masses and the mass-men of which they are made up, contrasting "noble life and common life" and excoriating the barbarism and primitivism he sees in the mass-man.
On my first trip to the UK, I remember getting off of the train and my traveling companion literally giving away some of her clothes and jackets to homeless people near the station.
Look at those things and realize that countries with better rankings are usually the size (population wise) of a single city in the US and far less diverse.

I'm not a delialist (I honestly don't care), but I would if land wasn't so expensive.
Nobody was predicting that. CFC production was a very small part of the gdp. Don't make stuff up.
If they were truly intelligent, then they would not need funding.

"Towns are evil and will destroy civilization as we know it!"
Technically, this one came true.

It's not possible to live here on the typical salaries paid in places like India and China.
Yes it is, but you'd have to go to someplace other than NYC or SF to do so. Go to rural New Mexico and you'll find a lot of people who do.
China has lost more jobs to automation than the US has lost to China.
And 56% without an income tax.
Around me (rural) there are all luxury retreat 'cabins'. Not many farmers. Not all farmers are poor either.
Justice. Another word for institutionalized revenge.
I like it when you don't just bring me the news, but also tell me how to feel about it.
Came only to make the same comment. Slashdot is trying to go mainstream.
Deserts in the US are rather rich biomes.
