    Plus, the company says, the software is now able to visually identity things like ... bumper sticker

    If you RTFA, Subarus are not supported. Interestingly, the system is only able to support up to 10 bumper stickers.

    That's because 10 bumper stickers will completely cover the back of a Subaru; plate, lights and all.

    Taking a look at this, I see that Racine county is not listed. Per the doc, "Implementing the 2015 Ozone Standards – Designated State Areas", "Areas not listed will be addressed in a separate future action"

    In a few million years, Marsians will wonder if the initial bacteria they came from a few million years ago were brought from outer space.

    But I'll bet they'll appreciate their rotors.

    Yeah, I was thinking "what, scientists can't recognize their data after a transform any more?"

    Needles to say, if the corrections went his way, we'd be hearing from him a gentle, persuasive discourse on why scientific data is always an approximation, and fine-tuning and correcting for errors is simply the way science works.

    "What if I collected all of the information about how often I bought shoes over the last ten years. According to you, that has any value whatsoever because "it's good to have information"."

    With that data we could prove, once and for all, whether or not you are Bigfoot.

    PS: I wrote "their" instead of "they're" to prove that I'm not a bot just repeating neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactor over and over.

    You'll have to try harder. The Google still can't find all of your posts with "neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactors". At least their not surfacing to the first page, because whoever looks past the first page anyways, right? So, perhaps if we discuss neighborhoods that have a buried nuclear reactor a little more, neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactors will have a better page rank, rather than old articles from 2008 about neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactors. .sig
    Oblig. "neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactors"

    I'm not getting any hits with a quick search on this stuff. A lot of "in 5 years" prognoses from 2008. Other more recent articles still describe it in the future tense.
