I recently left an R&D group that gave its operation over to a megalomaniacal "Key Expert".

That's a militaristic world.
This is all about the length of time a car will last.
The manufacturers don't want them to last, they want you to buy a new one every year.
This way, the every time they get parked outside, they get eaten, a bit at a time. :)
Cuts down on the impurities in the recycled copper, too.
Stuffing a cat in a box is bad enough; but radioactives and Cyanide? C'mon! :)
He does terrible things to Cats!
"Woke up, got out of bed, started to work but did some Coke instead, I love that woman, I love that sweet cocaine."
IDK if it was Cocker or Leon Redbone, but you'll never see that in reruns. :)
Facebook has killed critical thinking. :)
Isn't the reason you bought private storage that you wanted to keep it private?
It said NSA on the label; Dang!
I use mine mostly to load pee videos, hoping I'll get a job in the current administration; you never know...
Whoever made the call, as well as the officers who couldn't be bothered to Not shoot someone.
With their record, does anyone actually Call the police anymore for real calls anymore?

I'd hope if they could land on Mars, that that would at least do the landing like the Corvette in Heavy Metal.
I'm sure Musk could come up with a Loc-Nar somewhere... :)
Kinda like how the Hemingway House is on the best spot on the Key.
These guys didn't learn these things from books, written by someone with no skin in the game, and willing to deal with 'Acceptable Losses".

Not down her back.
I joined in 98, so you guys were well before me.
Remember when Larry Niven would post comments?
Thrunctip(?) was his username, I believe...
Dementia and Fox News.
