    My point is the biggest physical disability is obesity. Even (or especially) among cyborgs, who have a problem exercising enough to keep weight down. If we had a way to burn that fat for say, recharging our cell phones or our prosthetics, then you'd solve the obesity problem overnight.

    At that point, who needs the body? Just plug your brain into a mobile unit designed for the task of the day.

    Let me know when the prosthetics can run on a fuel cell based on human fat, and then I think you'll get LOTS of people interested.

    It's Islam Shariah Law. The rich are always favored over the poor. The publicity from this in Iran is worth every penny of "compensation" (which will indeed be pennies).

    I'm not so sure. I wouldn't put it past him to make Episode 7 about the Millenium Falcon and an X-wing chasing Grand Moff Tarkin's son in an Imperial Cruiser through a black hole to destroy the ice planet Hoth a week early and thus insure that the Empire Wins.

    It also seems to me like it would be possible to engineer one vehicle with a replaceable identical voltage/amperage battery pack or fuel cell.

    Anything that happened at least 5.39106(32) × 1044 s ago, the smallest unit of time we can measure, is history.

    What is happening *right now*, and predictions of what will happen in the future, is science.

    I never said history wasn't *true*. I said it wasn't science. There are many things outside of science that are true.

    I find that attitude rather paranoid. Besides, I screwed my anonymity long ago. I find it far more useful just to treat the internet like any other public space, with no reasonable expectation of privacy.

    Yes, that's the way embedded websites work. Youtube is controlled by google too, are you afraid to use google?

    I was more thinking about where she claimed "no more babies" to be a good idea. Also see next video where she directly discusses Japan with Mike Wallace (if you can stand all the Philips Morris smoking adverts, anyway).

    Good defense of History. Now want to try to defend science?

    No, it just means you have to recognize the difference between History and Science- and reject calling classes that are mere history, science.

    Yeah, I found that interestingly ironic as well. Especially at the end when Margaret promises to take up smoking the sponsor's brand. And the definition of a "modern" cabin cruiser as natural.

    Of course they wouldn't, their entire funding stream is highly dependent upon human causes. By their standards, ALL climate change must be due to burning fossil fuels and eating meat, else they lose their funding.

    There has been no real advance in physics for well over 70 years now. Just about everybody who has actually done original research in physics is dead.

    All that is left is engineering.
