What the other anonymous poster said; the Drone Wars only show a disregard for certain groups of intelligent life, while preserving the lives of our soldiers.
And last I saw, takes about an hour in the factory to assemble a drone, so where are you getting your 18 months from? My 20 years was the time needed for the clone to grow up and be trained.
I'm just saying that you CAN use NASCAR to teach- and that hopefully the kids wouldn't end up NASCAR drivers.
Having said that- I find that a solid understanding of friction on various types of surfaces makes me a MUCH faster driver than my wife, who doesn't understand even what happens when she turns the key.
28.34~ Yeah, that's a big part of the problem. But I think the real question is with 50 lbs of corn, how much mash can you make, and after fermentation, how much grain alcohol do you get out of it?
Because it's Virginia, where the the primary cause of poverty and predictor of success IS race (since those that have the money don't have the brains to judge people on merit).
In math? Of COURSE you can find a way to tie moonshine (chemical solution calculus and analysis) and NASCAR (fuel consumption, speed, time and distance, centripetal force on a curve) to mathematics and science!
An entire accounting department can be replaced with http://www.freshbooks.com/. They're the ones I used last time I worked 1099, and they're the ones I am going to use next time.
I disagree with Scott Adams on the idea that the US Government could go Nazi- I think we saw the first stages just last night. Having said that, I don't see any way to avoid such a government using all means at it's disposal to invade your privacy- and I don't see any way TO fight this- other than to lie as much as you can to anybody asking you questions.
The key is to separate the solar panel from the phone. Leave the panel, with a battery, in a sunny place as you go about your business, and charge from it when convenient. ThinkGeek has them for $40 or thereabouts
No, but I want to have laws based on reality. The problem with that is that reality is as much based on unproven assumptions as any other philosophy.
The reality is that I enjoy living, and that I'd guess the majority of people does so, too.
Like that bad assumption right there. What you enjoy might be torture to somebody else.
Hence there should exist a law that outlaws ending my life in a way that I do not approve of.
Even if your life is based on hurting other people?
Likewise, having to defend your property constantly against people wanting to take it from you is kinda inefficient, so I prefer to have a law that outlaws taking my possessions.
But isn't that ending the life of the outlaws in a way that they don't approve of?
And I tend to think that most people would agree with this, so there should be a law for it.
Another completely unproven assumption- your reality is getting less real all the time.
I dunno, but I tend to think that I, at least, don't need some imaginary friend to tell me that killing, stealing and lying is a bad idea on a general principle. If you do, by all means, have your imaginary friend tell you so!
Well, considering what you've already written, yes, in fact, you do need some coherant philosophy- because given what you've currently written, your philosophy is extremely incoherant and, it seems, inconsistently biased towards what YOU want completely in disregard of other philosophies.
Problem is, a lot of people that go and murder people later claim that their imaginary friend told them it's a spiffy idea, so I guess he can be a king size asshole, too...
Says the guy who wants irrational property rights based merely on subjective emotion..
Intelligence has no correlation with achievement in the free market at all. It's not what you know or how you process information- it's who you know and what deals can you make.
So I'd have to say that for the most part- the ideas of Margaret Sanger that we can breed more intelligent, and thus more successful, people are false.

Was it at least a heroin poppy?
I think you mean the Drone Wars. Clone Wars will take a reckless disregard for intelligent life and at least another 20 years to mature.

You'd be surprised by how many social conservatives don't have a problem with evolution at all.

Badly, which is why I've moved on to Chestertonian distributism. See my tag line- Tendence Reinhard, not Tendance Karl.
More the same point in the development of batteries. The actual engine is 25 year old tech.
Putting the generator in the car is too heavy. Just add a class I trailer hitch and put the generator on a hitch rack for long trips.
Anywhere on the East Coast the story is different.
Maybe for their next model Fisker will take a few design tips from this electric vehicle
Given that- and the time it has been since the Roadster came out- then for my 65th birthday I'll be able to afford a 2nd hand Tesla.
I turn 42 in two weeks.
Lord of the World! Volors! Fr. Robert Hugh Benson predicted it back in 1915!
VOLORS! A Roman Catholic Priest, and science fiction author, Fr. Robert Hugh Benson, had these in his novels back in 1915.
and the number of European or African sparrows you can capture.

Suddenly all those lectures about proper units in physics class make sense.
I think you mean 91m/g/passenger
Not sure how green, Methane from horse farts is 1000x the greenhouse gas carbon monoxide is.

Depends- I've known some six month olds unrelated to me that can carry on amazing conversations in American Sign Language. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/imhj.20286/abstract;jsessionid=39A4775805DA752A88B78DF6DCFEDAFA.d01t02?systemMessage=Wiley+Online+Library+will+be+disrupted+on+27+October+from+10%3A00-12%3A00+BST+(05%3A00-07%3A00+EDT)+for+essential+maintenance
I think this, like the assumption that people in the past were stupid, is a bad assumption.
Intelligence has no correlation with achievement in the free market at all. It's not what you know or how you process information- it's who you know and what deals can you make.
