If it's going to damage my liver, I'm switching to scotch. I'm sorry, Jack, but I just can't take the chance...
Unfortunately, your scotch and bourbon is likely fortified with a corn product.
If you ferment GM corn, and then distill it, is the alcohol obtained from the distillation process different to alcohol from non-GM corn? Or is it like canola oil, which is structurally identical in GM and non GM forms?
I hear electronics also. TVs and monitors make a high-pitched whine that I can tune out if there's other noise going on, but can actually get to be painful if someone has left their TV on displaying nothing in a quiet room.
The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.
Yeah, my oven does that, I just don't see the need for timed cooking, and the clock isn't in a position that I can refer to it easily. So it can damned well blink
Especially the increased on/off cycles, which is what kills almost all CFLs before their time.
In my "study of one", CFLs also don't work right out of the box about 10-20% of the time.
Just like incandescents, really.
They don't light at all, or they flicker on and off, etc.
Again, just like incandescents. You get the cute flicker effect when the filament breaks and then arcs.
There is a real quality problem with those bulbs.
With all bulbs, from what I see.
I much prefer plain, old fashioned incandescent bulbs.
This also doesn't take into effect that some kinds of CFL bulbs are hard on the eyes when lit (some are better than others). I have to go 50/50 to get the same light "warmth" in one bedroom.
However that isn't the point. Let me try to explain this in the way of an analogy:
Lets imagine you're in the middle of a epic World of Warcraft raid. You're starting to get hungry, but it's still fun. Your option is to either quit the game and go make food in the kitchen. Second option is to quickly skype for a pizza delivery guy to bring you a large pizza with some mountain dew. Like in GP's case, I think what you're going to do is obvious. 15 minutes later and you hear the doorbell ring and after a short while your mom walking down the stairs with your delicious large hawaiian pan pizza. While grabbing the first slice, an alliance guy jumps out of nowhere and starts hammering you with fireballs. That scares you so much that the pizza flies from your hands straight to your 30" LCD monitor. While trying to catch the pizza slice in air, you knock over the mountain dew bottle over your new multi-touch mouse.
No, it's a horde undead rogue that ganks and then cannibalises you.
The trick Hollywood use is to buy plausible existing book titles, and then hire lunatic monkeys on crack to come up with a script that is in no way related to the book.

The other fact is that an OS9 mac was more stable than a preemptive multitasking and memory protected PC.
That would be an opinion, not a fact.

Did the levels that they used cause diabetes (like ordinary corn syrup does), or didn't they look for that? (hold the inconvenient truths!)

Hmmm, William Gibson, is that you?
full-body scanners can store and transmit images.
I'm waiting for them to store and transmit hardcopy versions of us.
Get *rid* of them? Some of us work for those companies, you insensitive clod!
Clocks on ovens are for when you aren't there, and want to turn the oven on and off? I've never heard of chefs doing this.

Yes, Chewbacca.
This is a slightly higher tech version of scraping liquid paper off of a piece of paper.
And don't fall for the cashback offers.
My home colour printer *is* a dye impregnation printer (you insensitive clod)
It'll probably make the wings fall off.

TMI about your seduction techniques there.
Ack! doubly so, I mismatched the braces.
So how are they not a religion? Just substitute "science fiction" with "fantasy" and you have pretty much every religion out there.
With the exception of The Church of the flying spaghetti monster. You've pretty much got to accept that one as genuine. :^) {1]
[1] I feel unclean, putting the tongue-in-cheek emoticon there.
We're working on not recognising them as a religion, but they're fighting back. google xenophon senator scientology ...
I'm not sure you can attribute Tom Cruiise's nutdom to COS. Perhaps they fertilised them, but I think the original seeds[1] were already there.
[1] Seeds of nuts, would be nuts, but I don't feel like amending.

It reminds me of those sub-literate bots you see on Warcraft trade channel. My finger itches to right-click report spam it.
Parent deserves a funny mod, at least.
Bing? I'm dreaming, of a cashback christmas?
Where the cookies gouge the customer...
No, doesn't scan.
They need a qualified observer for that large a value of cat.
