If you have that much solar PV on your car you could just charge a battery with it. Be a lot more efficient than going to hydrogen, through a fuel cell, and then back out as electricity.
Scientists ask and answer those questions all the time. Read some Dawkins. You don't need a mysterious man in the sky (whose own complex origins rather beg for explanation) to explain organic complexity.
Finding a rodent 500 million years out of place would indicate our knowledge of life's evolutionary path is seriously incorrect. But yeah, it wouldn't invalidate the understanding of the actual mechanics of evolution.
Of course. Do you think children shouldn't be told that there were and still are people who believe that the Earth isn't round? Is that somehow a secret which might spoil their poor little minds?
Sure, in a social studies class, maybe something like "Analysis of human stupidity".
As a Christian, what I don't understand is why God couldn't have used evolution as a tool for creation
Seems kind of a roundabout way to create humans, really. 2.5 billion years or more of single-celled life. Another 700 million years or more of various sorts of multi-cellular life. Millions of different species, most of which are extinct. All to end in 125 thousand years or so of modern humans, who in turn took 120 thousand or more of those years to recognize the Christian God (although they had no trouble envisioning many thousands of other gods over the intervening years).
The bacteria on the meteor must have come from somewhere. Since there is no obvious place in the solar system it could have evolved other than Earth, I'd say your meteor theory is less likely (although still far more likely than some divine creator, whose own origins would then need explanation).
Hydrogen has 1/40th the energy density of gasoline. It is not even vaguely interesting as a transportation fuel except in the minds of a few deluded proponents.
Yeah, but in Canada, even if the police did investigate (maybe), and even if they did get a prosecutor to file charges (doubtful), and even if they did get a conviction, the judge would put the perp back out on the street immediately and he'd be doing it again that afternoon. There are stories here weekly of guys with 30+ convictions for auto theft killing someone - how are they not in jail? seriously.
According to them, their reserves haven't decreased in over 30 years despite having not found any significant new fields. In fact, they magically all went up, enormously, around the time OPEC based production quotas on reserves estimates.
Despite all these reports of Saudi Arabia increasing production, they're still producing less than they were in 2004. And exporting significantly less.
Believing them is a recipe for starving to death in the cold and dark in the not-too-distant future.
Hey, that's what I was thinking. Other than defense, most federal money goes to old people via social security and medicaire. I just can't see them being that big of a threat (outside of the ballot box, anyway).
The content's still there. Our guild does MC for kicks once in a while. We're doing ZG for the mount, and I've done UBRS a few times for Onyxia attunements. I've soloed Scholomance.
Believe me, you didn't miss anything doing Scholomance 20 times for your Tier 0 hat.
The reality is that for most classes there are one or two builds that crank out very good (dps/heals) etc. The rest suck. Our guild had a major problem with not enforcing good builds (or really any other kind of raid discipline) and the result is that we stalled halfway through ssc/tk and fell apart.
These are not minor variations - these are equivalently geared toons varying by over 100% in dps output (player skill is also of course a factor there...).
Oh, come on. It's hardly a secret that Democrats are more often opposed to personal firearm ownership than Republicans. I'm not even American and I know that. I also have read enough of the written records of the founders to know that they considered an armed population a necessary safeguard to Liberty.
What bugs me about speed limits is that they're always the same, regardless of time of day, weather or traffic. And the only time they get enforced is on sunny Sunday mornings when it is absolutely the safest possible time to drive fast.

Yeah, illiterate religious fanatics will rise and take over the world. Or not. Good luck with that.

Reading LeGuin would be a good way to put anyone off sci-fi forever.

No one said being Free was the same thing as being Safe.
if you believe the Oil Sheiks in Saudi Arabia

Because burning all that coal will turn Florida into Atlantis. Amongst many other unpalatable consequences of global warming.
Sick with a cold? Better get ready to line up at urgent care because my doctor has no openings for about two weeks.
Why on earth would you go to the doctor for a cold?

I have developers doing that every few days. I can't even imagine how bad it would be to have non-techies hitting my db direct.
and there is simply no way of getting people to accept challenge/response on a wide scale
Sending C/R challenges to forged senders IS SPAM. Offloading your problem onto everyone else is not solving it.

Just, hand the keys to the homes back to the homeowners, along with the deeds, and stabilize a lot of neighborhoods.
Wait a sec. Can I go and buy a big house I can't afford before this plan comes into effect? It would help me out a lot.
thanks!
You should follow your own advice. The Insight is obviously not an electric car - it's a gas car.
