Since there is currently no other craft available that can bring stuff back, this is pointless. Later Musks plan is to reuse all the components, which should bring the cost down a lot.
All five members agreed the measure would pass and who would vote which way before the meeting was held. They worked out how they were going to spin it to each of their lobbyists in advance. How each individual voted is irrelevant because the fix was in from the beginning. The meeting was just for show.
Tom Wheeler is the former president of the Cable industry's top lobbyist group. We already knew where he stood on net neutrality before he was appointed or confirmed. That is how he came to be FCC chairman. You don't think they would let someone with the public's interests in mind sit in that chair?
The USB standards org is mostly Intel. The the thunderbolt standards org is entirely Intel and Apple. Intel is competiting with themselves here so they cannot lose. That said, the USB group has a winning record despite sometimes inferior tech by being free with licensing. The nerd in me prefers the thunderbolt, infiniband derived tech, especially over single mode fiber. But I am not going to turn down cheap ubiquitous USB especially when more devices support it.
We are always in an extinction event. The climate is always changing, organisms are evolving to outcompete each other. Sometimes there are more extinctions, sometimes less. But there are never none.
The 450ky record also includes several 100ky incidents where the global average temperature dropped by 8-10C below present, in a fairly short period. We would probably prefer that not happen again for a long time. During these periods humans are typically driven back to the tropical regions where long periods of regional isolation create racial differentiation.
NASA's primary climate apocalypse oracle has decided to leave his science post to spent more time at advocacy - at the agency's request. He was getting embarrassing.
If you don't want to be seen as a mindless propagandist you have to be completely honest from the start. I will only address your point 1: "Who needs a computer model when you can see the polar ice melting." This is dishonest. North polar ice is indeed diminishing. South polar ice is increasing. You phrase this as if to suggest both are melting. It is a lie. Start with an obvious lie and nothing else in your post can be taken seriously.
Congrats. Attributing a phrase commonly referenced to Stalin to a Faux News talking head does appear to be an effective means of derailing the discussion. Nicely done.
Wyoming is in the right here. It is not in the mandate of the school district to advocate a new apocalyptic apostolic cult. Let the parents do that on their own time if they want to, or homeschool.

AT&T charges their broadband customers $30/month++ to opt out of traffic monitoring for ad targeting.

That would be amazing.
Oh wait. We still have Microsoft and their proxies trying to prevent the future.
This. What does it matter how many men there are if none have a spare hour?

Now would be a great time for Google Fiber to announce their nationwide rollout. "If the FCC won't fight for a free and open Internet then we must."
Google fiber will not be introducing caps. And they are working on 10Gbps fiber to the home.
They are just making it easier for Google Fiber to take over.
If Dawn finds Ceres as water rich as we expect, do you think that will kick off an asteroid mining gold rush?

Over the last 12,000 years sea level has risen 400'.
We would like things to stay as they are, but that is not natural.
If you remove the hard drive this is not a problem.
If we could only hitch the spin on both sides of this topic to a turbine we would have a limitless source of clean renewable energy.
It is cold in Wyoming. Jackson, WY is the fourth coldest city in the US.
Also, for some who live in cold climates some warming - even a great deal of warming - would be a welcome thing.
