That sort of thing can happen in under a year. This stuff grows fast and it was imported from Asia because of that for use in erosion control. It turned out to absolutely love the climate down here and it exploded out of control.
It actually is not that bad of a plant. It isn't poisonous and doesn't cause allergic reactions nor does it have thorns. You can make tea out of the leaves, and jelly from the flowers and vines. Also the vines are useful when dried for basket making and for animal fodder.
If the products are too expensive for anyone to buy the prices *will* drop, and drop hard.
Otherwise local businesses will start up to take advantage of the now desperate workers willing to accept minimum wage, and will undersell the outsourced company that has to pay shipping costs in addition to salaries.
The only time you get economic collapses in a functional market is if the raw materials cease to exist or the labor to process them ceases to exist.
Well for African countries to be allowed to have fusion plants first they would need to exist.
A good bit of Africa's problems is that a number of countries have dissolved the private property rights "for the common good". There was a big story a while back where the white farmers were kicked off their land so it could be returned to the African people (read the families of the people who ran the government). Now those farms are ruined due to improper farming and the nation is starving.
The white farmers have recently been invited back, but they refused because the land was damaged and they have no reason to believe it won't happen again.
Not only is the speed of light a problem, but relitivity as well. If you put the atomic clock on a train and send it thirty miles down the track it would lose time.
Setting the first one was easy. They just checked their wristwatches. Its not as important that the clock have the correct time, as it is that it keeps the correct time.
More likely they will be killed by the environmental lobbies.
THEY WANT WHAT??? NUCLEAR BATTERIES!!! SOMEONE BRING THE PITCHFORKS AND TORCHES!!!
oh and slashdot lameness filter we are coming after you next. oh yes. you and your "don't use so many caps. It's like yelling" bah. in my day we yelled and screamed for hours straight to fight the man and his desire for nuclear stuff. because we know the truth, anything nuclear is just an atomic bomb waiting to blow us all away when we speak up against the oppressive jackbooted thugs that run our government. they would control them with their cia mind control devices, which being powered by the evil atoms and various chemicals would finally be able to pierce tin foil hats, but i'm wise to them. i replaced my tin foil with three inches of lead! sure its heavy and cuts off the blood supply to my brain, but i never used it anyway.
If that is were you will stand then stand there. I believe that that road leads to hell, but I don't speak of the fire and brimstone place of popular myth.
I think hell is, as the Bible plainly states, merely the absense of God. I think He just lets those wish for it to have that which they beleive they desire.
A world with no God. A world without absolute truth where lies reign supreme. A world where Satan the Prince of Lies is the greatest of all beings as he wished to be.
They are also his children, He cares for them, and He wants them to have what they think will make them happy.
Meanwhile those that seek Him, will be brought to Him, and live in a place that absolute knowledge, and truth are availible, as the Bible puts it, "[A] river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God".
It is a very beautiful image, and at the very least give hope, which is largly lacking in these times.
I'm not going to say, "Convert now heathen, for the end is nigh!", but I do hope you will at least consider it because frankly the prospect of darkness without dawn is utterly depressing to me.
My personal belief is that many parts of the Bible are correct, and that God has given us an agent at sorting out the gold from that which glitters.
Basically we can not know for sure that anything we believe is true, but the act of believing makes it true for us.
I'm not completely sure how to explain it, but it seems to me that God would not throw us to the wolves without any hope of salvation. I don't know what it is, and I won't know until I meet him in a way that I can ask "Yo, Whats up with all that stuff?".
All I can be expected to do is follow the basic plan that is laid out in front of me, and pray.
I'm not clear on you saying that the Bible says that it is the word of God. The only places I can think of are thesetwo. One of which just says that the scripture is useful for instruction, and the other which says that God is his Word. So if the Bible was the Word it would be too holy for fallen creatures like us to touch or even look at.
The Bible is a signpost pointing to salvation, but it isn't in itself salvation.
God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are.
Or at least that is my belief. Don't let me lead you astray if you believe differently.
Slashdot Mirror
Its the new Goatse
More likely the government would buy it and sell it to the *IAA because they are who can provide the biggest bribes.
You could always use it to run a bunch of LEDs that spell out "I SEE YOU!!!"
Well you don't really have to hook the solar panels up to anything...
What if we build the space ring only to find out that it wasn't needed and watch as it causes an ice age before we can get rid of it?
I use this for my solar observation needs.
In case of Godzilla attack the train will transform into a giant robot in order to protect Tokyo.
The usability tests should take a look at my firefox menubar which consists of only Edit, View, Bookmarks, and Tools.
And I'm starting to look at eliminating Edit and View.
Gestures make menus obsolete.
Not really. Right now the Justices can pick their times and simply retire when they know their party can select their replacement.
And so long as you let your plants live, you are providing oxygen for the flame that the soldier uses to burn that child.
Bah why do total conversion to carbon when pure energy is so much easier and cooler looking.
E=mc^2 all the way baby.

The best method to control kudzu is herds of sheep or goats. In fact there are a few groups of people down here who rent sheep to people to clean the stuff away.

Was it this guy?
For me it happened as my eyes dried out due to not blinking.

Morrowind has lots of crates in it, but they all hold something, and fit into the general atmosphere of the game.
You should note the quotes around "for the common good" that is the reason the government gave, not the reason I gave.
If the government can take private property then there is no private property rights, which is why I see the recent eminent domain stuff as so scary.

Only thing that comes to mind is Jerimiah was a Bullfrog, but that song was cool.
Only if you ram them into it at high speeds.
Gravity and inertia both increase as mass increases.
Since the orbital distance is the balance between inertia and gravity it will not change.
