As to what to expect. Hahahahahahahaha! You hope and change harpies are in for a real shocker... The economy is in shambles (and you can blame Chris Dodd and Barney "Bang me in the ass" Franks for that) and you think the government is gonna fix it? Good luck folks. See ya in four years. It's going to be interesting to say the least....
My new yumiz ruler is perfectly calibrated in emh's and is 14.667 long. Now I'm going to go measure something like the how many pins can fit on one you guy's heads...
Wow! Are you for real? If so I suggest you bundle up next weeks pay check and send it to me. I need it more than you and you're obviously too stupid to spend it wisely.
Besides, you like working for others right? Here' s your opportunity....
"perhaps explain why sales of the Prius and other green cars are slow to take off"
Yeah, I'm sure the high price, low performance, econobox look, not to mention high maintenance and exaggerated claims of savings (which are actually negative compared to a comparably sized compact gas powered vehicle), has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that it has a sweet face that nobody will buy it. Yeah, that's it....
Reminds of parents telling their nasty fat child that they have no friends because other kids are stupid....
Yeah, cause the "city folk" are so much better behaved about losing TV than the country bumkins.... particularly when they see all the nice ghosting their going to get from the multi-path interference (love those big buildings) Digital TV is soooo much more susceptible to.
You're missing the point entirely. This has nothing whatever to do with anything but taking more working peoples money and giving more control to government agencies. To that end this would greatly successful.
Let's just hope the people of the world wake up to the reality of the "global warming" hoax and it's true ambitions before the legions of idiots give up control of everything from what we drive to how much flatulence we have to some malevolent world government.
Absolutely correct. This has been sold to broadcasters as a way to save money while transmitting the same content. They can cut power, theoretically, save a ton of money and still get the same advertising revenue.
Unfortunately, as the previous posting observed, the public will pay the price in quality and quantity of stations available to their antenna.
"In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king"
You know the problem and no one else recognized it (yet). Become the expert about every aspect of that software but don't take responsibility for it. When things start hitting the fan you'll be the hero. Let them come to you next time.
My experience with many aliens is that they come here to do nothing but pillage and take what they can before running back home. Many are not only lazy but stupid. They go to American University's where they're passed along with excellent grades from teachers that "happen" to have their same nationality and abysmal accent. Many ride an American gravy train not open to our own citizens that allows them to achieve Masters and PhD's with few if any of the skills those academic achievements have traditionally required. We're left with highly degreed technicians that can't even speak the language of the country that educated them to return to their various countries to sell idiot managers in this country on using their $5 dollar an hour engineers (and worth every penny) to take jobs from this country.
I'd much rather see you work in a country where you give two shits about the people (try India, lovely country, nothing like shitting in a trough outside like an animal). It seems Americans have been so brainwashed in to thinking Americans are evil we have little sheepies like yourselves that would gladly welcome those that would destroy us into our country.
You're fools. History shows it again and again and the sad part is you probably won't live long enough to overcome your misplaced racism to understand what I'm saying. The best think you could do for this country is go to some of the countries you love so much and actually LIVE there for a while. You'd have to be a moron to want to allow that to creep into this country anymore than it already has!!
"As an American citizen trying to make my part of the world a better place, I don't want or need you. Any chance you can work out an exchange? You can leave, and the other guy can come in?"
You're failing. I seem to be doing better. Why don't you leave? I was here first too...
The United States is busy at this time. Please try again later... (much later...)
But seriously, what the hells wrong with your own damn country! We have enough diversity here to last us at least 10,000 years. Please stay where you are and make your part of the world a better place rather than coming here. Don't need ya, don't want ya. Sorry....
You should stop typing 'cause with your brain power, you certainly can't breath and type at the same time.... Stick with breathing. It's obviously more productive for you....
....could we possibly wait until "actual" scientists (as opposed to politicians, news readers and crackpots) show that global warming is taking place before we poison the oceans to stop it? Then it might even be a good notion to try to prove it's being caused by anything other than nature itself. Good luck on that by the way as ice cores show temperature variations throughout the observable life of the planet.
Wise up and quit being sheep or you will get sheared!!
...want to move to Australia. I love this country and think its the greatest in the world but we've got some of the worst people in office imaginable. This dumb shit waists my tax dollars (I live in Ohio) to try to impeach a president in the last 6 months of his 8 year term. Maybe Dennis needs to be smeared with meat paste and locked in a room with hungry wolverines... Yeah... I like that... Maybe with a web cam....
Yeah. You mean like the BS of quoting 100% output from a wind farm as it's "actual" capacity (an impossibility for a wind farm)? Nuclear plants typically operate at 90% capacity (all the time...) unlike a wind farm that's lucky to do 25% on average and considerably less many times.
Four whole gigawatts! Man, that must be like, almost 1/4 what a typical nuclear plant generates for 10 times the price and environmental impact! What a deal! Maybe for his next project he can invest billions in a solar farm of 50 square miles to generate a 500 kilowatts!! I love green technology. It goes so well with the moldy green brains that push to advance it in the face of cleaner more efficient technology that's existed for over 50 years.
I wonder how this genius became a billionaire. No, don't tell me, let me guess... stock trader or corporate raider? Maybe a lawyer or politician?
I love what I do but I hate the way I have to do it. Constant threat of layoffs, push for more in less time, constant push to teach lesser paid people how to do what I do. If I could just design and implement software I'd be in heaven. Unfortunately it's only about 25% of what I do in between a lot of BS.
I would not go into this field had I known it would be like this. I have several friends that are doctors and it sounds like they've got it almost as bad (maybe worse). The business of greed and maximum profit sucks the life out of every technical field. Profit isn't a bad thing but when it's the only thing it all goes to hell fast.
Cynically I'd stick with entertainment or government work. Those two never seem to suffer no matter how bad things are elsewhere....
Yup, you're correct. That's why I'm throwing away my MS in CiS and going into body painting.... or photography.... or writing... I don't know but my school guidance counselor so lied to me!!
Let's put a cap on personal wealth at $10 million. Anybody with more has to turn the rest in to the government for redistribution. Yeah, that sounds good.
Nothing like having the richest man in world, especially a guy that got wealthy through means not strictly ethical, telling everyone that they now need to take care of the poor. What the hell was he doing for the poor in 1985 when he was busy putting encrypted code into Windows 3.0 to prevent Dr Dos from working?
He's a hypocritical bastard like a lot of the extremely wealthy. They got there's so now it's time to tell everybody else what to do to even the playing field.

"Jane Hamsher and I were at two of those homes this morning"
So this is sure to be an unbiased account of these events!! Wow! You guys crack me up!!
Or the evil wishes of Democrates
Or morons
Oh, aren't those all the same thing....
with all this proven green technology around... Right? Anyone, anyone...
