>Why is reducing how much oil we burn such a bad thing? I don't fucking get it.
It really doesn't matter much, whatever you try to do to reduce fossil fuel use. Human greed will see to it that the last drop of oil will eventually be extracted and burned. So all the efforts to reduce CO2 will only slow its rise down, until we run out of oil. Only then will there be an actual substantial CO2 reduction.
So all this effort and all the billions that are spent now are not going to prevent the CO2 maximum that's going to come about. Don't get me wrong, reduction of CO2 production is a good thing. But being realistic, human greed will make the effort moot.

There's a hilarious "World Nature Bashing Foundation" site in Dutch at www.wnbf.nl to take care of that, by a Dutch amateur stand up comedian.
Quotes from his show about "Nature has it out for us":
Showing picture of an old abandoned bike: "I parked my bike with inflated tires three years ago and sure enough, nature flattened them."
A picture of a very old tiled path: "You build a nice, straight path, and nature will destroy it in a few years time. But it doesn't work the other way around: throw a bunch of tiles in your yard, come back a few years later and there won't be a nice straight path."
It has a "Classic Start Menu" option, as well as a lot of other features for people who prefer the XP UI over Windows 7. No mention of Windows 8 yet though: http://classicshell.sourceforge.net/
Never just grab a power line, use the back of your hand to check it first. If there's still power on it your hand would close and you wouldn't be able to let it go if you touched it with the front of your fingers...
There is a difference. They're not allowed to show up on google.com and google.be searches, but I could still search for them at google.nl or google.de for instance.
Depending on how you read the different translations of course.
I'm probably going to buy an "XFX Radeon HD 5670 Silent 1GB". There's also a "Radeon HD 5750 Noiseless Edition 1GB" but it runs much hotter according to benchmarks.

All of those can be manipulated, including the camera.
So it's a nice idea, but not guaranteed to be random.

No, because your IP address wasn't registered jumping through all the hoops.
Maybe this info will spare us most "nuke" posts (terrorist jokes, etc).
How about Godzilla overlord jokes?
Saying lame jokes about sex tourism
That was created by the USA anyway.
A lot of questions might get answered if they put another detector half way and let them catch the bursts in turn.
How difficult would a setup like that be?
Just as long as he doesn't sing "Ring of Fire".

I wonder what she said.
In the Dutch Bible Belt children still get polio because their parent refuse to have them vaccinated.
So yes, religion has an influence.

I just tried google.nl and it appears that these newspapers' sites are indeed removed from all searches.
Nice. It'll take a higher court decision to get this turned around. So maybe they'll show up again in another 5 years...
There is a difference. They're not allowed to show up on google.com and google.be searches, but I could still search for them at google.nl or google.de for instance.

Remove from their servers, or remove from their search results?
Conflicting translations are not really clear on that.
Maybe it was an excess apostrophe.

He made $75.000,00 a year but couldn't pay off a debt of $5000,00?
He's convicted for millions of dollars worth of fraud, but can't afford a ticket to Turkey for his lawyer?
Can someone explain, please.
