    no the average blue collar idiot is not that smart. the average blue collar idiot hasn't even got a vested interest in the end result. Seriously, why would the average blue collar idiot even care about a corporation that is no longer allowed to pollute anymore? hell, isn't science backtracking a bit by telling the corps they can use CFCs and then screaming about the destruction of the world?

    no the average blue collar idiot is complaining about what the corps complain about because they give the easiest answers. Economists, Scientists, Businesses, and Politicians are butting heads. The average idiot is weighing in on subjects that are completely above their heads. It's not much wonder at all that some scientists are loathe to explain discrepancies that will be easily misinterpreted and used as political ammunition for an army of, frankly, blistering morons to go second guessing people that have very little incentive to admit they fucked up in the first place.

    Sheeeit!

    Anyways, let's say global warming isn't caused by pollution. Isn't it enough to say that 9 out of 10 scientists agree, smokestacks are bad for our health. Just like it's enough to say that 9 out of 10 Doctors agree that smoking is bad for you.

    That's the point right there. The details of the problem aren't anyone's fucking business except the professionals. Business said, "well shit - these details don't fit our business model, let's try to discredit everyone that brings this up and fight tooth and nail for every little scrap of deceit we can pass off as expert opinion because we can't figure out a new business direction."

    The problem is that business is rigid and inflexible otherwise they wouldn't be using the law to go toe to toe with every professional who says "reality fucks with your business." First and foremost businesses need to get out of the habit of suing people the second they fuck up their business model. RIAA, Cigarettes, climate control, the list goes on and on.

    But, you didn't actually make that point. The length of copyrights or patents have little to do with the irony of so called "free market" advocates lobbying to regulate their customer base. Fuck, if you really think about it and read the thread again your argument for free and sensible patents and copyrights are much more in line with true capitalism over the bullshit our current regime of circle jerking CxOs try to pass off.

    "I don't think that underlying concept has changed any in 250 years. If you have no patents then you have little incentive for innovation. If you have patents that last too long then you also retard innovation. "

    you're a jackass. The discussion was about pseudo capitalists raping our IP system to the point you can't use a camera without risking a prison sentence. The irony is in the unregulators calling for regulation. Perhaps I'm not following your take on the subject, but I'm inclined to assume you weren't actually following the subject at all.

    bullshit. prison is for people that don't/can't follow rules. the government doesn't give a shit about anything other than the ability to make up their own rules, when people don't follow them, slammer time.

    I thought the same, but it makes perfect sense:

    "The familiar expression "steep learning curve" may refer alternately to rapid learning that is easy, or especially hard, or to steady progress that is increasingly difficult. Which is referred to needs to be clarified by context. The difference is specifically whether one is referring to the rate of learning or the rate of investment needed to learn. Typically for a steady rate of learning, the rate of effort or time invested first decreases and then increases without bound in approaching the limits of learning or perfection for a given subject and method. Originally it referred to quick progress in learning during the initial stages followed by gradually lesser improvements with further practice."
