I'm curious why no one has come up with the obvious answer: the bulge is the casing protecting the parastic larval cacodemon that taps directly into his spine.
Ah, the beloved Chewbacca Defense: if we don't like your science, we'll take you into a fractal realm of debate over increasingly small issues. This issue is - at least on this page - now hopelessly muddied, which is what they wanted: they can now say "see, there's no consensus."
Here's some clarity: global warming projections are not based on one paper, nor on one excel spreadsheet. Those who dispute the theory of human-induced warming are outnumbered by those who used to dispute it. Scientific debate increasingly supports the viewpoint, and the only remaining force opposing it is money.
If a cellphone can interfere with flight electronics, then it's a short step to building a cellphone-like device that deliberately does so, putting the plane and its passengers in danger. It could look like a phone, a walkman, an electric shaver - anything. Why would such an achilles heel be tolerated? Unless all this heightened security is just a sham to make people feel more secure. But that's just unthinkable, right? Guys?
So, has MS set up a bot to respond to any MS-related article with "Slashdot sure sucks nowadays" or some variation thereof? I've seen it a lot lately, but this one seems totally egregious.

You have *got* to be kidding. The music was integral - and fantastic.
