The large range is exactly due to the fact that the point of "divergence" is essentially arbitrary, especially considering nobody was there to observe. The concept of individual species itself is arbitrary, and many exceptions exist to the "able to reproduce and produce fertile offspring" rule. Its nothing more than a useful baseline that aids in communication, sorta like lewis structures in chemistry
Who said he shouldn't be punished? Of course he should be punished, and he will be. Restitution, however, is a financial payment from the criminal to the victim to compensate them for harm caused them during the commission of a crime. Nobody was actually harmed, therefore nobody is entitled to restitution.
Well since the "hitman" was an undercover agent, and the target was not actually tortured and killed, I'll repeat myself. Who was actually, personally harmed as a direct result of his actions?
Here is Public Law 107-243 that parent post was referring to. You can see in the first few pages that it talks about the alleged links between Iraq and al-Qaeda.
Had you read the article you'd realize you can send and recieve phone books between the car and phones.
yah... and you can transfer files between an iPod and a PC too. Does that mean your iPod can be affected by Windows viruses?
c'mon people, think things through first...
1. What is the Earth's shape?
The Earth is flat. It is shaped in the form of a pentagon, and thus has five corners.
5. Does the "middle corner" prove that 5=6?
Yes.
9. How long is the edge of the Earth?
The edge of the Earth is infinitely long.
10. Does this mean that the Earth has infinite area?
No, no more than England does. See Benoit Mandelbrot for more information.
13. What about gravity?
Gravity is a lie invented by the purveyors of the inherently false spherical Earth theory. The theory of gravity has never been proven. There is no gravity, only inertia. The Earth moves through space like a giant elevator. We do not fall off because we are kept down by inertia. The Earth has inertia.
There is a school of thought which states, however, that the Earth does not move through space, but rather that it rests on the back of a giant turtle, and that what we call gravity is, in fact, the turtle's animal magnetism.
20. Does Idaho exist
No. The existence of Idaho is a lie, fabricated by a conspiracy of cartographers, as is England (see question 10).
21. What about North Dakota?
That doesn't exist either.
22. Any other places which are believed to exist but really don't?
Yes, Australia. And then there are the cryptogeographica, places such as Kadath, Carcosa, Hobbiton, Narnia, Hy-Brasil, Hell and such whose existence has not been satisfactorily proven.
Is this some joke that I just don't know about, or do people actually believe this bu11$h!t? I mean come now, Idaho and England do not exist, gravity is fictional, and the earth is on the back of a giant turtle?! And here's the kicker, This FAQ was compiled by Lee Harvey Oswald Smith
And another thing (math isn't my srong point so correct me if I am wrong), if the earth was flat and it's edge was infinitely long, how could it's area not be infinite?
It's not that we don't know the difference, but that most of us are just too lazy to care. As long as the person you are communicating with understands what you are saying, does it really matter if you speak/write perfectly?
It should not be hard at all to stop them unless they have a VERY strong economy on their own. If the feds wanted to stop states from doing things like this, how hard would it be to cut off ALL federal funding and aid? How long do you really think it would take for the state to give in? California was in deep crap not too long ago because pollution levels were too high in major cities (LA I think). The US govt. threatened to take away all federal road funding and CA cleaned up it's act fairly quickly (not sure if the problem is competely resolved though).
I'm not 100% on wether that caused the U.S. to declare war, but yes. The U.S. intercepted a communication from Germany to Mexico that said that if the Mexicans sided with the Axis against the US, Germany would win back for Mexico the land taken by America during the Westward Expansion.
During the cold war they were worried about nukes. If a nuke were to be launched at NYC, you would have to relocate everyone in the area quite a long way from the 'danger zone', correct? For the tsunami you would just have to get the people that are too close to shore, and you only need to get them far enough that the wave cant reach them with enough force to pose a threat. I'm sure that is very possible with 5-6 hours warning.
when i saw that on ebay a coule hours ago i almoast fell out of my chair laughing. can there REALLY be anyone that is this much of a loser! my god!

A nation *could* theoretically be communist and still a democracy. Communism is just a form of socialism, and if you know anything about socialism you would know that in it the govt. controls all industry in order to make what is good for the people. That is the opposite of capitalism, but NOT democracy.

It already exists. Take a look at CureCoin

Sure, here.

To whom? Who has he harmed that deserves restitution simply by doing something the government does not like?

This 'IE' sounds great... does it run on Linux? Do you have the link to the project page?
Run on Linux? yes.
Project page? right here.
If you want a non-cluttered Yahoo interface, this is probably what you are looking for.

It's a good thing it got there, would have been a waste if they had to come home early.
