I'd bet a large wad of money that I know most subjects better than any elementary school teacher. I have a friend who homeschools his kid as well as sending him to school. The kid is #1 in his class and has jumped two grades. And then there was the valedictorian from my engineering college who was homeschooled up until the time he came to university.
60Hz AC matches the impedence of the human body pretty well and makes it more lethal. And 110v definitely can be fatal depending on the person, contacts and path. It's not guaranteed death, but is dangerous and should be treated that way. And you're right about the current and 25kv isn't definitively lethal either. Static electricity shocks can be > 70kv.
Waste heat is unusable energy. A swimming pool at 5C contains more energy than 1m^3 of water at 900C. The latter you can do something with like run a turbine whereas not much with the former.
Humans showed up very late in the habital period of Earth. Even with this, modern technological civilization has only been around a couple of tens of thousands of years beginning with the first agricultural revolution. Think about it, humans existed in their current evolutionary state for a million years as hunter gatherers before farming came along.

Why suspicious. I used to build stuff like this all of the time and bring it to school to show my teachers and other kids. These exact kits were sold in the 1970's (along with chemistry kits). http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb...

No...ex post facto Law shall be passed.

What should the adults in a position of authority do differently?
Be brave and don't panic

yes You must be new to the nerd world.
A Boltzmann brain
Another possibility is we are the only ones around.

Teachers get jealous too. I know I had my share if that.
No, just engineering. Limiting to Muslim means you think it can't happen to you.
Or Star.
Something similar happened in Boston. To a white kid.
But not Star Simpson.
So what you are saying is that they are no better than Boston? http://boingboing.net/2007/01/...
Surely not to act like Boston.
Then how do you explain Star Simpson?

Don't pretend you are immune. This happens to white kids too.

This literally showed up less than a minute ago in the mail as I was reading this story.
What short memory you have. Or maybe you are very young.
