I'm likely not thinking of something physically obvious, so please point me in the right direction in the usual generous slashdot manner.
The most physically obvious thing you are overlooking is the amount of material in a CME. Even at their most violent a CME would be hard pressed to top 1e-20 of the Sun's mass, which would mean that with an eruption speed topping 3000 km/sec the most kick it could give would change the Sun's speed by less than the radius of a hydrogen atom per hour.
So, to follow your analogy, it is not so much like throwing your mitten in the opposite direction than it is trying to jet your way to the bank by a single, unenthusiastic fart. Which, as a strategy, is pretty close to the usual generous slashdot manner.
I hope the commenter above who wonders whether the expense is worth the knowledge reads this comment and shudders to think how much worse it would be if everyone's grasp of physics were this fingerless. It's bad enough we have *one* Alabama.
I'm sorry to pick on you, self-professed fan of loud music, but something that ignorant of the physical processes of the Universe just friggin hurts. To quote an old physics gent: That's not right. It's not even wrong.
It's bad enough what they *wanted* to call it — The Ronald Reagan Center for High Energy Physics (presumably for his previous work in the field of deciduous pollution vectors and the Grand Unification Theory of Vegetables and Condiments. Look it up, kids.)
And that was the same year that Richard Feynman died.
I would suggest hitting some of the Tom Baker Dalek episodes for context, so at a minimum RAW EMIT EHT makes sense. At a minimum, "Genesis of the Daleks" is important.
As opposed to the immaculate efficiency of warfare, which has never spread disease, broken up families, or caused anyone an iota of emotional consequences. Because if it did, we wouldn't make so many games about them, would we?
The key to victory seemed more decided by buzzer speed than anything else.
This statement is true when there are three bags of meat playing instead of two. Anyone on the show has passed the test; the difference between winning and losing is mostly reaction time and resistance to pressure.
Not that anyone is reading this thread at this point , but I can't ignore a challenge...
For another - no other mainstream religion actively seeks to "disconnect" you from your friends and relatives
Open your books to the Gospel of Mark, 10:29-30 (KSV):
And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
But look at me, quoting the words of a prophet of two of the major monotheistic religions, and a member of the tribe of the third. And *without even breaking a sweat*.
Of course the original HALO was released for Mac OS X. Either that or I put the wrong kind of mushrooms on my pizza when I played it. As noted above, none of the versions resembled the original announcement video.
Before you spout off again maybe you should try Google instead of Bing. (Or Bing two weeks later.)
Meanwhile, we have Christian members of our own government travelling to places like Uganda and urging the passage of laws such as the death penalty for homosexuals. As a result of the virulent and thuggish environment they have ginned up, one of the most prominent activists was just beaten to death.
Well-educated, worldly, big-money people are behind movements like the Christian right. They're just basically evil.
The thing to keep in mind is that the concept of "woman" in Islamic terms is nearly a non-sentient tool to assist in reproduction. And maybe housekeeping. It isn't as if there was a real human life involved.
In many parts of the US we also have religious people who hold this position, going so far as to shoot doctors and blow up buildings in order to constrict the reproductive choices of women.
To go further, we held the same concept about a race of people — both women and men — exercised freely for the economic benefit of those in the Southern region of our nation. This concept was even encoded in one of our founding documents.
America. A land where young-earth creationists stuff their fat mouths with genetically-modified food, confident in the God-given fact that that carbon emissions from their SUVs will help the plants grow (It's what they crave!).
America. A land where the descendants of immigrants build walls to keep out immigrants.
America. A land where a number one song with the word "Ironic" in its title had no examples of irony in it. Sure it was recorded by a Canadian, but the poor girl was probably overwhelmed by her Southern neighbor's complete inability to recognize it.
America. I will be unamazed to watch them die off one by one from MRSA after botched liposuction surgery. Probably in a sex tape or while on a reality show.
McVeigh picked the building to bomb because of it's open space around the building would provide better photo opportunities for propaganda purposes and a couple other things like the glass front and parking lots.
Sure he did. That's why he decided to detonate the explosives at 3 am when the building would be all but unoccupied instead of just after 9 am when everyone got to work. Because he was, at heart, just an everyday American patriot who didn't want to hurt anybody.
With a faulty watch.

Look above your post — 400 grammar nazis can't be wrong.
Waitasec, did I just Godwin?
More like Roundheads and Cavaliers.
And your last point explains why religions preach against non-vaginal sex. So the OP is correct.
As opposed to the immaculate efficiency of warfare, which has never spread disease, broken up families, or caused anyone an iota of emotional consequences. Because if it did, we wouldn't make so many games about them, would we?
My hand is up. But I just watch them for the Cab Calloway.
Who, even at the end, got wood.
Which I think goes back to the OP's point: Consumers are stupid.
You didn't because your parents kept voting for the Flintstones.
And *this* is why FIREFLY was on for eight weeks and FULL HOUSE was on for eight seasons.
Breeders.
Does it help if you know that the giant squid was likely a reference to the first Justice League comic?
That being said, the movie made a decent choice for an alternate ending.

Here endeth the lesson.
Reading that list of charges and tactics, I may finally be ready to accept Scientology as a member of the fraternity of religions.
Play it again, for the first time: http://marathon.sourceforge.net/
Which reminds me, I need to go find the Carnage Soccer map.

In the 1980s we got one out of Variety.
