Maybe the corn got zapped by some Noocoolar waste and then bit the soybean, thereby transfering it's super-powers to the soybean. Watch out for soybeans that pop spectacularly when heated in oil!
Of, course, this is only possible because of what G.W. Bush did as governor of Texas.
They can't change what they are, but they can change their names.
For years they have been doing a lot of work with prison inmates. Look for trouble from ex-cons under the direction of Islamic groups.
I disagree somewhat with his article in that I don't think that there is alot of opportunity for the media companies on the internet. What we are witnessing is a transformation of the industries. This will inevitably result in the deaths of some of these companies, like dinosaurs. To artificially prop them up is just plain wrong. Who knows what greater heights can be achieved without them in the way? I for one will happily kick the chair out from under them.

Wow, Marty is almost as good as Jon Katz!
You are right of course, he hasn't had pussy since pussy had him.
It actually doesn't matter whether global warming is real or not; and it doesn't matter whether we're causing it or not.
I totally agree.
If it is real, then the potential costs are so high (most major cities, for example, grew up around ports and are only a few metres above sea level), and the time it takes to turn the juggernaut around is so long, that we need to be taking urgent avoiding action now while we continue to urgently assess the reality of the risk.
No we don't. Structures require what is known as maintenance. Sometimes they are even scrapped due to age. The "global warming", if it is in fact happening, is happening so slowly that normal maintenance and abandonment will take care of it.
If it turns out that global warming is happening but that the major causes are natural, then we're still better off if we've done everything we can to stop making things worse.
No, we aren't. In that case it's been a monumental waste of effort. Do you comprehend the amount of effort it would take to decrease CO2 levels to any appreciable extent?
If it turns out that global warming isn't happening and it was all a panic about nithing, then we'll still have more efficient transportation, better insulated houses, and a cleaner planet with greater fossil fuel reserves to pass on to our children.
Is that all there is to giving them a quality life?
But if the United States carries on the way it's going and it turns out that that global warming is real, then the voters of Florida, Mississippi, and Texas aren't going to cheer too loudly for the President and the generation which lost 20% of the land area of the continental United States, and turned another 20% into desert.
You don't KNOW that's what will happen. Hell, if that much land mass is underwater, then there will be that much more evaporation. Why will there be more desert? There might be less!
The whole point is that you advocate chasing our tails when you have not a clue what the result will be. We can much more easily extrapolate what will happen if, say, Kyoto is implemented, simply because the results would be so much nearer in the future.

The Navy - It's not just a job, it's $86.83 a month!
We can strip-mine other planets later!

So, will Compaq systems now be as nice as HP systems or will HP systems be as crappy as Compaqs?
Man, this place is getting Socialist lately!
