I say 'Gosh Darn It!' Wouldn't want to be sacrilegious.
My sarcasm meter sucks on the net, but by default if you're an Atheist, you can't be sacrilegious towards a deity really, can you?
I know there's the IPU and FSM that we all bandy about to illustrate the hilarity in believing something that can't be proven, but nobody really believes in the sanctity of them, do they?
My uncle had a Honda Goldwing, you insensitive clod! Only motorbike I've seen that has a stereo system:D And a reverse gear, apparently..
There's a lot of bikes like this now, generally under the category of super tourer or full dresser. I rented a Harley Electraglide while I was in Vegas, the stereo was a godsend when I was riding through the deserts of Arizona, California and Nevada at night.
Back on topic, I really hope Mercedes, as an auto maker, can turn the market enough to force infrastructure changes, but I don't hold my breath. It would be interesting if the auto industry gave the finger to oil industry and all did this at once. But alas, I'm turning purple.
Imagine you have a study of solicitations per 100 children. Those 100 children report 20 solicitations. That's 1 in 5 right?
Wrong. Why? Because that could be 1 child that frequents certain sites of ill-repute and getting 20 solicitations. That's 1 in 100, not the aforementioned 1 in 5. While I don't think it's that low, I don't think it's that high.
Odd how a story about porn reveals the perverse nature of statistics.
But the Bible leads us to believe that God wouldn't do this. However, the sacred scriptures of the Flying Spaghetti Monster explicitly say that He does do this; therefore, FSMism is the one true religion.
Fixed that for you.
BTW... what are the FSM's sacred scriptures? The back of a Prego jar? Are Mario and Luigi the great disciples?

"The physicists were intrigued: Like viruses, money is transported by people from place to place. " The problem is that you give a bill to only one person. Most disease is not like that.
But they said "money" not "bills." I think a distinction needs to be made. You may only give a bill to one person, but you give bills to lots of people. If you think of each bill as a infection vector of a hard to commune disease, AIDS for example, it is an alarmingly accurate comparison. If you break it down to the 'per bill' model it is too narrow for an extremely infectious disease, cold/flu for example. The study would need to be modified to figure out how many 'Georges' people get on average, and of those how many are of the virulent/communicable type, then it may be a more usable predictor for the more infectious model.

I'm glad that I'm a member of a huge group of corporate whore-mongers that can buy the laws to protect us.

Wow, that's what I call a Never Ending Story.

Wells Fargo ATMs allow you to do this for their 'Quick Cash' button. You can manually configure it to be the amount you need, want.
That's probably Taiwanese dollars, that's where the byline is.
0.0308676(Taiwan/US) * 6400(Taiwan) = 197.55264(US)
That's still $6.20 US/GB so still not very desirable, but if they can EoS down, and get the battery life trade off it may be worth it.

I believe the button men are looking for is MUTE.
