    LOL, I give lectures on the ineffectiveness of studies. Who would have thought....

    Processes that enrich soil; adding rock dust from glacial recession, adding organic matter from waste, introducing red worms to this environment; 1 year.
    Plenty of rock dust out there, way too much organic material goes to the dump. Wherever man lives, there is plenty of compostable material just going to waste dumps. Make a beginning, the end wont be that far.

  3. Re:Big deal on Can Google Influence Elections? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Just add a few entries to Youtube in search results and we have THE PEOPLE talking about candidates, pointing out the lies, the history, the payola, what corp. owns them and not a fucking thing a campaign manager can do , but to wet himself. Oh sure the candidate will have a few official videos,like anyone could care after its been plastered over T.V.
    Talk about public service announcements, YEAH BABY! No one watches much T.V. anymore, anyway.

    How about Agriculture as compulsory? There is an ever more starving world out there.
    Dirt farming, hydroponics, aeroponics, aquaponics; of course, all could use the help of computer aided water and even light systems. Teach the kids scripting at minimum. Not everyone NEEDS to code.

    I like to think their fuck ups are what is good for our REPUBLIC.
    Democracy is a bad thing, I prefer to accentuate the positive.

    Taking a cue from the so called consultant field, I would combine the NSA, CIA and Secret service, fire half of them and make them WORK for a living.
    Then I would put the FBI to work at the borders helping to fulfill the Constitutional duty of the Government. Hey, while Im at it, I would put all the other junk agencies on the same detail, but not before firing half of them to begin with, just so the rest appreciate their jobs and get over their pride. THEN, I would cut their wages down to private sector size. WOOHOO, Im on a roll, VOTE for FLY! President FLYNEYE, YAH BAYBEE!

  10. Re:Our patent system is totally broken on USPTO Approves Amazon Patent For Taking Pictures · · Score: 1

    Does no one count on good old fashioned bribery or extortion? Even suspect it?
    It would go a long way towards explaining silly patents over the years, silly laws over the years, silly SCOTUS decisions, etc. All perfectly understandable as these institutions are run by fallible people, with weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
    I'm sure the denialist camp is made of the optomistic faithful suffering cranial-rectumitis, so we know where they stand. What about the rest of us?
    Isn't it time to suspect that a spade is a spade?

    Apparently, you have never seen an ad for mail-order brides.
    A friend of mine just did the marriage/divorce cycle with a German mother of two.
    It only cost him untold dollars, his house on the beach in N.C. and too many years of his life.

    Not a bad idea! In light of the so called global warming caused by cow farting, we could all drop our pants, extend our moons and be fitted for a gas harvesting tank along with every cow on Earth! We understand there is GREAT energy potential in this RENEWABLE resource. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

              If we only fit some high profile models and teen stars with a unit, the rest of the population will follow willingly, cow-like to buy a new iFart unit from those thoughtful, globally conscious heroes over at Apple. Futures in beans and other indigestibles will skyrocket!

    But this is an individual we are talking about, not a company. A dead one at that. I am satisfied that his memory is pissed on by people who think.
    It is not unusual for high level individuals to be dishonest, hoodlums, psychotics, sexual deviants, murderers. Look at history, past and present world leaders, past and present industry leaders, The Repubmocrat party, pop religion, any police dept.,etc...
    If we are to progress as a species, we would need to have worldwide revolution, a consistent plan for getting along afterward, and a desire to make things better in the chaos that follows. I dont see it happening in this age.

    Youre talking to a guy who lives in a town where the newspapers carry stories of 2 different jail officers who male rape inmates, where Ive caught cruisers smoking pot, where rural cops rape/trade tickets for sex. One local cop just murdered his wife, and he was a police trainer @ school. Ive heard enough about the illusion/delusion of proved honesty in any official system. No more reliable than television ads. Money,power and greed trump law anyday. Honest cops are T.V. fiction. To make your quote scarier; outlaw guns and only cops will have guns....
