  3. Re:Vitamin A is toxic on "Super Bananas" May Save Millions of Lives In Africa · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Perhaps if you'd read TFA, you'd see this:

    "The consequences of vitamin A deficiency are dire with 650,000-700,000 children world-wide dying ... each year and at least another 300,000 going blind," he said.

    I don't think they have to worry about toxic levels. Esp since toxic levels are 1500IU *per kilo*. So, somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 bananas per meal, 3x per day. And then they might get to toxic levels.

    actual polls behind this show Republicans to be more against the spying than Democrats

    Except for voting people into office who say they'll do exactly that for 'security'.

    The space station? No. It was a precursor to Star Wars, which the NSF was helping build. While tripling the national debt ($1T to $3T).

    Yay 'conservative' president!

    So we're what? Protesting France? Is that the agenda?

    Or just that the best scientific evidence at the time pointed to Asians coming over 10-60,000 years ago? Or that those people were called Clovis? Might want to look up some of your 'facts'. No idea why you think France is involved, except in some sort of conspiracy to prevent their utmost best history.

    Reagan was the one who finally figured out how to get paid well by security theater. Everyone else just copied him.

    Well, if there's one thing that the GOPs hold in higher regard than religion, it's money.

    I doubt many GOPers would vote for something that might shed light on the mysteries of the atom/universe/big bang. Even if they could eventually weaponize it.

    Seriously, are all you blind GOP supporters that blind to what the rest of the party believes and is in fact their official party stance?

    I'm pretty sure that answer is self evident even here on Slashdot.
