Usually people don't hate on average American folk (outside of jest at least), so much as they do the people in power, be it senators or CEOs.
I think we are on the same page there. The government is the problem, not the solution.
Although the fact that things like the tea party exist, and there is more than one person that likes ayn rand's books, and GWB got voted in twice, and Reagan is the most beloved president in history... those all make that a lot harder;-)
And there we deviate. You don't have a clue about the Tea Party if you read about it on any media outlet. If you don't care for Reagan, you understand *nothing* about America - nothing. Or you genuinely *don't* like America.
No it isn't, stop being a putz. They solved *half* the total problem, which is a hell of a lot more than you did. Using food waste is a HUGE improvement over petroleum. And PET containers are imminently recyclable, and the entire idea is PRACTICAL and economically feasible, which puts it far ahead of the game from most foolishly impractical eco-nut ideas.
it's sad, to me, that grown men have spent extensive time analyzing the intricacies of the politics and philosophy of mythical beings from a 30-year-old kid's movie.
Sorry if it was too subtle for you, imbecile - the parent went off about ALL religion, not just Christianity. But I wouldn't expect someone of you limited capabilities to be able to grasp the difference.
Only on the liberal bastion of slashdot can you expect a intolerant quasi-psychotic diatribe against something that the vast majority of the human race believes to be tagged "Insightful"
There are certainly dust storms of a sort. Dust is moved by electrostatic forces as the sun rises and sets - all those charged particles coming out of the Sun, unimpeded, is like rubbing an amber rod with cat fur.
You're joking, but I accidentally maximize the window on Windows all the time because of that. I don't think I have *ever* intentionally maximized a window.
It's different from that in that the supposed fossils are mostly very similar in size and structure to existing types of life we already know about. The previous examples were at the extreme lower end of the size range of common bacteria.
In any case the ALH84001 data is still open to interpretation, not debunked. The current case is far more plausible evidence.
No. And the problem here would still be present with any alternative technology. If you are launching from the ground you will definitely still need a payload fairing - and that's what failed to separate in this case (and quite a few other OSC launch attempts, as it turns out).
A rocket, particularly a solid rocket, is a remarkably reliable and very inexpensive way to launch things.

So you have some data correlating the amount of money spent to kids learning proper English, math, and science? I would be fascinated.
I *don't want* government to try to solve difficult social issues.
"Down/offline", meaning not performing the science mission, NOT, unreachable with no telemetry.
Uh, just make a separate deal with Google.
117, not 110, although it varies around from maybe 112-125 depending on where and when you are

Excellent example that proves my point!

Oh, nothing at all, we are all living in a world of ice cream and unicorns.
This is just a load of shit. Home-burned CDs occasionally degenerate, but I have initial release CD from the mid-80s that are still perfectly playable
Oh really? I think you are not correct, and Hedy Lamarr would think you are not correct .

Why is it any of your business what they do? Because you aren't interested, you want it stopped. Fascinating.
We carry a harpoon...

Bender: Your son plays the holophoner beautifully. How hard did you have to hit him?
High Society Dowager: Fairly Hard.
Have you ever considered turning off the TV, sitting down with your child, and hitting them?

So, I take it you don't have any backup system for any of your other data, either? That'll show 'em!
Yes, it's exactly and precisely like that.
No. And the problem here would still be present with any alternative technology. If you are launching from the ground you will definitely still need a payload fairing - and that's what failed to separate in this case (and quite a few other OSC launch attempts, as it turns out).

Moreover, at least outside exceptionally unlikely external forces, such a system is not stable, so the arrangement is temporary.
