Not gone, just the oxidation number of the carbon atoms are reduced (ie. sugars -> C02) thus you need to input more energy into the system(like photosynthesis etc.)
I had the occasional problem with KOTOR I with the drivers the card shipped with, but usually the VPU would recover, except the one time I won a swoop race and it crashed hard. Now, trying to run GTA Vice City with the drivers shipped w/ the card, that was an exercise in futility.
No, more SUV's are sold with V-8's and not just any V-8 the 5+ liter V-8's. And the reason most people like SUVs is b/c they sit higher which gives them a feeling of confidence, which affects their driving style. Thus your statement of,"...they will be aggresive/bad regardless of what vehicle they drive" is false. Also put down the CATO institute talking points and pick up the crash test data on SUV-car crash tests. But don't take my word for it stick your average road-raging soccer mom in Mini Cooper or a Chevy AVEO and see if she'll still cut and serve through traffic.
"Without protecting the investors' _right_ to a risk-based return (this is the essence of property rights),". Um, no you have that wrong the essence of property rights is,"this is my shit and you can't take it." Another part of property's value is its scarecity(sp?), there is no IP scarecity.
Ok, I maybe funny, but you dear sir, are a paragon of comedy. I wasn't knocking socialism, but communism hence the 1991 mention. As for better countries than the US well will leave that argument for another time. I also appreciate how you turned my post about Kyoto is flawed since the signers can't meet their obligations and the China and India loop-holes allow for Global CO2 emissions to increase into a rant about selfish americans. Then you stated at all nations are created equal, but the US should be the one to suffer hardships and not the third world, which seems kinda hypocritical. I have no problem with other nations being pissed of at the US, I just wish they would recognize that they entered Kyoto in bad faith.
Rule number one: Guns don't kill people, people kill people. These "Guns" you rant about are merely tools, in the hands of a responsible law abiding person, there is little to worry about. Hell more people die on America's highways, should we also get over our car culture? Troll on you crazy diamond.
Ok first, how is taking from those who and giving have to those who don't fair? Sorry Comrade, but 1991 called, and they said that system didn't work. And then there is this gem, "No-one was pestering the US to follow environmental treaties when IT was developing, but now you want to force those on other developing nations?" Well, you see there was no environmental treaties when the US was developing, though the British did try to press our sailors into their navy, so life is always tough for a developing country. As others have pointed out, several signers of Kyoto have no clue how they will meet the target, and China and India can become the factories of the West, which will help reduce Global CO2 emissions how?
No, the problem is that nobody watches Sci-Fi on network TV on a Friday night(X-files being the only exception). What day of the week did fox air Firefox? yep, Friday. That and UPN doesn't know what it wants to run, they keep looking for the next Dawson's creek, or a cheap(to produce) reality show.
See 10th amendment to US constitution. "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." Emphasis mine.
Not entirely, this admission raises the spectre of a Japan having to develope nukes to protect themselves from a nuclear N. Korea. The thought of a nuclear Japan really ruins China's day, so there maybe some real friction in the region.
"I don't get all the ill will towards steam, but I presume much of it is predicated on not being able to play the game without paying Valve." I presume you haven't read any of the comments in the previous/. story saying that due to the awkward way you go into offline mode, it is possible to sit in limbo, and not be able to play single player with the steam auth servers down. That is were the ill will comes from not ohh I can't pirate this l33t w4r3z. I also presume you aren't trolling.
"Of course it matters even if there isn't life on Mars - if any mistake was made, then the planet would turn into a Venus or like Hosk in Star Wars. It might take thousands of years to undo that kind of damage."
First so what if mars becomes like venus, then we would learn what not to do, second it's Hoth not Hosk(I assume you mean the ice planet from the beginning of Empire). Third if it takes thousands of years again so what? That's like getting worried if you have hurt a bot's feelings by fragging it in a deathmatch, it doesn't matter b/c there is nothing to offend.
Please, the handwriting was on the wall as soon as the show was moved to Friday. I believe the X-files was the only scifi-esque network TV show to do well on Friday night. What night did Firefly used to run on? The coveted demographic that would watch Enterprise is busy doing other things on a friday night. So on network TV expect more lame ass reality shows, CSI:Springfield(not the simpsons one), and Law and Order:Parking Tickets. Oh and one or two more evening soap operas(ala Desperate Housewifes)

Well, depending on your location it may be illegal to talk on your cell phone without a hands free system(New Jersey, I think). Also given the number of morons whose elbows block their peripherial vision while on the phone, I would say yes, it is that hard to talk and drive.
Bah, I've only seen the first part of the new season of Galactica, but the religous cylons are getting to be tiresome, and when is Adama going to learn that to make peace with the cylons he just needs to teach them Calculus? Though I think the Enterprise writers screwed themselves by killing all the "Augments" they could have been cool villians, and cool villians can make a good show better.

Yes, but CFC's are minor greenhouse gases as compared to water vapor and CO2.

No, the aerosol hairspray and RJ-12 freon would do nothing but destroy the martian ozone layer if one exists, not heat the planet up.

How did you not get a copy of PowerDVD free w/ the DVD drive? I think it also came in the mail w/ samples of Tide.

The best way to get rid of a noisy fan, i.e. the lamest thing to bitch about in the history of personal computers, just turn the sub-woofer up.
