    Nice aspersion - cite it.

    If people stop eating meat and instead ate the vegetables fed to the animals,...

    Good luck with that new diet. Call us in a year about the marvels of eating grass. One of the reasons we eat herbivores, they can eat the plants we can't.

    That 10-40 is not all grain.

    It's bad because it's allowing a piece of software to become a witness. One you cannot ask questions of unless you want to force the importing of the whole development team for each trial. Just having "working knowledge" of how the software functions is insufficient.

    And because "I extrapolated from other cases what the defendant should look like" wouldn't go over well if given by a human expert.

    "so it is possible" - Same extrapolation from scant information.

    The hurricane the evacuation order is precipitated upon is real as well. Obfuscation failure. What part of confiscated without due process don't you find unconstitutional?

    Has Breitbart ever retracted anything they've said?

    Yes.

    Jayson Blair was exposed by his own newspaper (New York Times)

    If by exposed you mean they admitted they had a fraud on the payroll, yes. If you mean the NYT investigated him and discovered the falsehoods - not quite. They were blissfully unaware until:
    "The senior editor of the San Antonio Express-News had contacted The New York Times about the resemblance between Blair's article in The New York Times and Hernandez's article in his paper." (wiki)

    Because of course, you were completely unaware of this proclivity of the society you lived in and went to Pluto in a state of ignorant, terminal naivete.

  13. That "something" was murder and the "protestor" was never referred to as such. Otherwise, your memory is great.

    Independent evaluations of Trump vs. Clinton's economic and tax plans are pretty uniformly negative with regards to Trump's plan, whereas they are fairly neutral or positive about Clinton's.

    Some elder statesmen of the environmental movement from the 1970s have even acknowledged that they messed up when with they exaggerated risks of nuclear.

  17. almost *any* new car will be more efficient than a beater that's been on the road for 20-30 years

    The cost it takes to manufacture vs the already existing car has to be weighed in. That's a lot of carbon. Reality dictates we start measuring effect from the now.

  22. They think some are like that, and there are some. They're also perfectly aware that some scientists or no more than paper jockeys, trying to come up with something they can slap their name on and be historically remembered. Futile, but that's what they're after.

  25. Please note that most religions have not been debunked...

    Good damn reason: It is incumbent upon the promoter of the religion to prove it, not upon anyone else to disprove it. Until proven, it's just someone's fantasy.
