  3. Re:You can't win the "war" on drugs on Round-Up Ready Coca Plants · · Score: 1
    but his advisor(s) (Name forgotten, but there was a key one, here.) told him that it would never work.
    Was it this guy?
  4. Re:Quick! on Round-Up Ready Coca Plants · · Score: 1
    NO. RTFA:

    Four weeks later, the scientist sends me an email saying that he has completed the DNA analysis and found no evidence of modification. He tested specifically for the presence of CP4 - a telltale indicator of the Roundup Ready modification - as well as for the cauliflower mosaic virus, the gene most commonly used to insert foreign DNA into a plant...

    Which points back to selective breeding.

    I agree grandparent is childish, but I also agree the moderators smoke crack.

    Not all of us - some of us prefer Guatemalan insanity peppers.

  6. Re:PV = nRT on Greatest Equations Ever · · Score: 1

    Because you're an idealist?

  7. LatTex? Ascii? on Greatest Equations Ever · · Score: 1

    How come we still can't render these beautiful, important equations in XHTML?

    the FBI raided Kittridge's home and took six computers away as evidence. (He says the agency notified him last month that it was dropping the case and would return the equipment)

  10. Re:LIAR on White House Lied About Iraq Nuclear Programs · · Score: 1
    Seems a signatory on that forged document HAD BEEN DEAD for a number of years. Didn't stop Bush & Co, (or even, sadly, Colin Powell) from ranting and raving about "mushroom clouds"....

    All you pollyanna liberals just don't get it - this proves that Iraq was using ZOMBIES to create WMDs!

  11. Re:I am deeply sorry for the loss of life on Auto Accident at SANE Conference Kills One · · Score: 1

    It is undisputable that if they were driving an SUV, that software developer would be alive today.
    What about the people in the other car? SUVs are more dangerous for everyone else. So what you're proposing is an arms race of escalating vehicle size.

  16. Re:How is this news? on Stallman vs Ken Brown · · Score: 2, Insightful
    "How is it news when Stallman once again complains that no one seems to get the difference between GNU and Linux?"
    The usually pointless (thought technically valid) distinction actually has some merit here. RMS is saying that Brown is using the confusion to discredit Linus' work. He's probably correct on that.
  17. Re:CR deadlock on Spam Solutions from an Expert · · Score: 2, Funny

    " Alice takes it personally and decides if she does ever hear from Bob again she won't be going on a second date with him no matter what." Excellent. Clueless luses like Alice shouldn't be allowed to breed. -berbo

  18. Re:Origami + Math = Tom Hull on Origami and Math · · Score: 1

    Cute pun, but most people probably don't know that Tom has an excellent 'flapping bat' model on his web site (or used to, anyway).
