If I had to take a guess, the Straight of Hormuz being as shallow as it is, they were using the 'shadow' of the New Orleans to hide in during the crossing and someone screwed up. It's also possible that they were offloading personnel but this would be silly to do in a narrow and shallow straight.
Actually, a large part of the still high prices is because China is currently stockpiling. Something we should be doing, but that requires foresight, something our type of government isn't good at even with rational actors in play, which is far from the current situation.
Um, the most efficient biomass for biofuels is algae. I didn't know people in the third world ate algae. Solar will NEVER be large scale unless we implement space collectors, which have problems of their own. Hydro impacts the environment more than it helps and is extremely geographically limited. That leaves wind, which has the same storage problems as solar and added NIMBY issues. So basically, the three alternative sources Shell is dumping were never very likely to actually b used in the long run anyway.
Given the actual text of the amendment, it would not have any effect on marriage laws unless the marriage law said that women could only marry men but men could marry women and other men. OTOH, it would force men to wear shirts or invalidate all laws saying women couldn't walk around topless.
Bankers or stockbrokers? Because they're very different. You'd expect bankers to look for a relatively conservative growth model, which means there's a perfectly good chance that over the short term the chimps picks would outperform the bankers. Over the long term this wouldn't tend to be true.
I'm sure if SpaceX went the giant fucking booster rocket route they'd have a much better success rate. Instead, they're trying to find a reliable replacement for the booster/shuttle combo.
We might have the materials science on the cutting edge in 100 years. Of course, that means that it would take several years worth of the US's GDP to make it, and that assumes you wouldn't get a whackjob trying to take it out.
Doesn't follow. The US didn't really ramp up R&D for a inter-continental delivery system for the nukes until several years after WWII and there was less urgency on the matter. Moreover massive resources were still being concentrated on improving nukes. Had ICBM research been as pressured as the original Manhattan Project ICBM's might have been a reality much earlier. Of course without such a dangerous payload they would have been useless, but still.
Um, what? Turn the other cheek is only a better survival strategy if you don't have a weapon you know how to use. If you do have one, fighting back is by far the better survival strategy.
No, the ending is being redone because it was complete shit. You could get three different people to follow you who were completely immune to radiation, but none of the fuckers would go and input the code, forcing someone to die. Worst fucking bit of writing I've ever seen.
It doesn't fit with the overall meme. After all, if they kill the bad guys, then that means that violence was the answer in the first place, and any pain and suffering after the first season is pretty much their fault for being a bunch of squeamish bitches.

Cause the only way you remove the hate is through lobotomies or chemical engineering.
Yes and no, while it will be more expensive to extract, OPEC won't have control over it, which will reduce prices by a good amount.

Sorry, hate to burst your bubble but artificers are LFA legal(only to third level currently). There is no more setting specific crunch.

Yeah, Obama's about twice as incompetent and a thousand times more corrupt.

Of course, McCain also joined in McCain-Feingold, so clearly he's not a conservative barometer.
Sooo, EXACTLY like gun control then.
Um, it'll be a bit difficult for the terrorists to get to a Trident missile system, let alone fire it.

And you sound like someone who understands human nature about as well as I understand tensor calculus.
Eh, if people were able to they would.
Wizards rule is worse. Well, after the first or second book anyway. Terry Goodkind gets a bit nutty.
Is it winter? Cause then nailing jelly to the tree would be quite successful.
It is in America, although it's illegal to inform the jury of this fact.
One of the three is a ROBOT.
Not sequels. F2 was the only sequel in the series. Just because something is set in the same universe doesn't mean it's a sequel.
