    We blow shit up so well is because we understand that accuracy by volume is the best way to hit your target. What makes this guy think anyone's going to meet up with an asteroid traveling at who knows what speed.

    If any good come from this... Has it caused any measurable change in government policy? Or did it just cause tightening of their grip on classified data?

  7. Re:I Don't Get It on DoJ Admits Aaron Swartz's Prosecution Was Political · · Score: 2

    Mental illness is very serious and sometimes people get pushed beyond their limit. I can't imagine the need for any government employee to push someone that far.

    My stomach turns when I think of the lengths that people will go to in the name of justice.

    Rednecks are a very small part of the gun culture. They happen to be the most vocal of us. Kind of like how the really weird and disgusting LGBTQ people seem to be the most vocal of those people.

    Thanks AC, I was wondering how you really felt.

    I have 30 hives in Douglas, Ma. I travel within an hour to farmers markets to peddle my honey. I've never had a complaint, I often have repeat buyers and I even have several small stores wanting to consign honey, as well as a lady that uses it to make soaps. Good honey literally sells itself, Plus it has an amazing shelf life. Douglas Honey Company.

  24. Re:So much for the guns on Hardware Hacker Proposes Patent and Education Reform To Obama · · Score: 0

    Umm, Just because a certain political leader says that something will be done on a certain time frame does not make it true. The president is not a dictator. Furthermore, there are many other critical issues in this country to be dealt with. Children being killed is a terrible thing, but it is very shortsighted of you to think that is the biggest problem in the world or that the president should devote every talking breath to gun control.

  25. Re:So much for the guns on Hardware Hacker Proposes Patent and Education Reform To Obama · · Score: 1

    I'm not being critical here, but I don't understand the connection between this article, the discussion taking place and Gun control, or why you seem to be upset that the conversation taking place doesn't include December's shootings.
