On their answering machine. True story... an acquaintance once received a package that was large, and low density, filled with a lot of foam peanuts. There were scuff marks on the top of the package, and the single layer of tape down the seam on top was not stuck to the cardboard. The package contained not only HIS goods, but also a much smaller package of heavy machine parts... FROM someone else, TO someone else. The smaller package had clearly fallen onto his, and had enough momentum to open the flap and fall inside, and the flap then sprang back. He called the courier, but they never got back to him.
Press Release – FAA Announces Decision on Child Safety Seats
...The agency said its analyses showed that, if forced to purchase an extra airline ticket, families might choose to drive, a statistically more dangerous way to travel....
The FAA allows babies in laps, despite knowing full well that moms can't hold on to them during turbulence. The FAA's thoughtful policy is because they would rather have the child in a safe airplane than in an unsafe car because the extra plane seat was too expensive.
If the FAA can see things this way, the TSA should be able to see that killing shy people through auto accidents, or killing conformists with radiation, or just sapping their life away standing in a line, is worse than having a lesser number die from terrorism. Maybe.
For single player, wait for an expansion to fix the AI. The review in PCGamer said the AI does really stupid things with its combat units, like send them headlong into battle without regard to unit type, so its ranged units go right up to your melee units, and its melee units get trapped behind its own ranged units. The game balance is preserved simply by giving computer players more units. Given that this is the most tactical Civ yet (due to elimination of unit stacking), it's clear from the review it suffers even more from AI limitations than Civ IV did (before the Civ IV expansions).
How long did these studies take data for to show the change wasn't temporary? How did the studies account for the bias of their test yellows being made longer relative to the average yellows the drivers encounter everywhere else, a bias that would disappear if all yellows were made longer?
If drivers have adjusted to how long yellows are now, aren't they certain to adjust to how long they are after we make them all a little longer? Isn't another thing drivers have adjusted to is the historically low likelihood of being caught running a red, and the new cameras have upset that, and drivers have yet to adjust (in this case by taking yellows more seriously)?
I also remember an ignorant review... this one of a jet fighter game. The reviewer wondered how the sound of the aircraft's cannon made it out of playtesting the the sound garbled. He didn't know modern aircraft cannon make a 6000RPM braaaap instead of a 450 rpm WWII movie pop-pop-pop-pop. When letter writers informed him of his ignorance, he dug in his heels and said it "still sounded wrong" and didn't make for good entertainment because it was counter to gamers' expectations.
My uncle got a ticket for a speed higher than he was traveling, and the officer testified in court that speed was determined by time over distance between two very close markers. The officer thought the closer his markers, the more accurate the measurement. My uncle, a professor, tried to explain that human timing error meant that the closer the markers were, the LESS accurate the speed measurement was. The judge didn't understand, was frustrated, and finally said he thought my uncle was a speeder, and let the fine stand.
I was surprised to see your prediction of both conservative and progressive attempts to skew results. According to examples on wikipedia, Google-bombing and Googlewashing are propaganda tools historically used almost exclusively by progressives.

doesn't mean they don't suspect it might be real and they were lied to.

Not to the masses who would feel better if everyone were as hopeless as them, and not the the politician who wants the class warfare vote.

search google shopping for "keyless remote" and your model of car.
Keyless remote receivers are built into every car whether you pay for the option or not. There's an aftermarket keyless remote industry to exploit it.

Is that you judge? Speed measurements over smaller distances are less likely to be accurate when human error is taken into account.

>Why WindowsCE doesn't do such things is a complete mystery. Perhaps because they get panned when they do the same thing, like in Vista UAC?
