Thiomersal was phased out of almost all US childhood vaccines around a decade ago (as, in fact, the Wikipedia article mentions). Yet, the rates of autism continue to rise.
AFAIK, the only one. He's it. The ONLY person to mention Jesus, outside of the Bible. Seriously, the evidence that Jesus was a real historical figure is pretty thin on the ground.
Because all of the other planning in Astrophysics (in particular, the recent Decadal Survey) has been based on the presumption that JWST would be occurring. This includes decisions about what other missions to support; what preparatory science to fund; who to hire into faculty positions; etc.
Cancellation of JWST would be as much of a blow to Astrophysics as the cancellation of the SSC was to US Particle Physics (think: CERN).
If JWST is cancelled, the next decade of Astrophysics research in the USA is dead in the water. Over. Finito.
Some perspective: the Department of Defense spends more money each year on air conditioning for its troops stationed in the Middle East, than the ENTIRE NASA budget. Certainly, I don't begrudge our troops some comfort in their living quarters; but isn't it *at least* as important that we launch the JWST, which -- unlike anything before it -- has the capability of observing the very first stars and galaxies, at the very dawn of the Universe?
'Unarmed' police state? No, the police state in the UK is very much armed. Are you aware that a police shooting of an Afro-Carribean man (which may or may not have been justified; that's a side issue) was the trigger for the initial rioting?
The article for sale is uranium *ore*, not depleted uranium. Quite a different thing. The ore can be turned into weapons-grade uranium, but only using equipment like gas centrifuges, which don't come cheap...

You look a little stupid here, you know?

...they will have to install special self-preservation chips inside consoles, so they don't commit seppuku when an Emo kid plays on them.
Care to cite one? And what's the primary source?

Errr -- I was just quoting from 'Aliens'. Whereas you appear to be some kind of nuke-happy nutjob. My, what strange bedfellows we are!

Nuke 'em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
...fixed that for you.
Are we talking about sodium coolant?
I remember being the first person in the world to run Linux on an ARM 250 -- back in the mid 1990s.
I thought it was the 'Europeans' who did that...
What do you expect for a Christian, eh?
Morality? Son, hang out in 4chan for an hour, and get back to us.
Should be 'Too Many Data'. Morans.
Perhaps the vast reserves of crude oil that happen, inconveniently, to lie beneath their land?
Are you a dick all the time, or is this a red-letter day?
In fact, finding a needle in a haystack is trivial. Douse the whole stack in gas, torch it, and then run a strong electromagnet over the ash.
I'm always thankful for folk's like you who considerately add an apostrophe to plural word's to warn me an 's' is coming up.
TL;DR. So, by 'natural born', you mean 'not brown'. Right?
Or, if you are unable to spell 'unremarkable'....
Did anyone apart from me actually get the reference?

Mieles are expensive but awesome. Expect it to last 15-20 years or more...
