this reminds me of the guy that got cancer from microwave popcorn.
because he ate like 3 or 4 bags a day, and with each bag, he would open it, place his face to it, and inhale the popcorn/butter fumes repeatedly.
Hell, i actually search for manual windows when looking for new vehicles. (you can still get em from the manufacturer, you just have to special order the whole car to get em.)
in so far as we can tell. seeing as no one has done this yet, we could actually still be totally wrong.
remember! its all pointless experimentation until it does something cool!
if i'm thinking this out right, dumping the warp core, would result in the contents of the part of space you where in to go whizzing off at warp speed in any random direction?
not a conventional lawn. large trucks with large trailers with large tractors with large brush-mower attachments to mow these large fields they are referring to. its not your 10x15 plot of Kentucky bluegrass in front of your house, its acre upon acre of semi-native grass and weeds.
both sheep and goats do this.
i live where the desert encroached.
this area used to be the american equivalent of African high savanna, now, its the northernmost reaches of the Chihuahuan high desert.
there's photographic evidence to back me up hung all over town as well.
that only happens if you leave the goats in the same pasture for far longer than is intelligent. in the same scenario, sheep do the same damn thing. i've seen far to much land that looks like the surface of the moon nearly, because of overgrazing by sheep, as well as goats.
not really, you can haul about 10 goats in the back of a pickup truck with racks on the box, and goats are not all THAT heavy, so it would not have been that much of an load. quite honestly, i considering they stay a week, and probably are able to 'mow' the grass shorter than you normally mow with a mower of the type that would be used for this task (this is not a lawn, it is a large field, so a fairly large tractor and brush mower would be used, not a push mower) so they are transported less often, and are MUCH more fuel efficient than hauling a several ton tractor to and from the site.
so what you are saying is, if nothing is carbon neutral, eventually, without humans screwing it up (which we may or may not be doing) it would have eventually overheated and exploded anyways?
well, thats good. its nice to know that all we did is break it before it wore out on its own. means we got our moneys worth.
no more than you do. if there impact on the environment disturbs you, you are free to eliminate your equal or greater impact by committing ritual sepuku.
i saw an article once where a guy bought around 50 of the plain black mouse pads in bulk somewhere, then carefully cut them all down so there where no round edges, and then glued em down to his desk. made one vast mouse pad.
no no! keep going! i think if you keep it up he may burst into flames! just disprove a few more of his points! any moment now! LOOK! i think he's starting to smoke!
same here. all this reminds me of the time the small ISP i was working for got a bad box of cable. most annoying thing EVER. we just grabbed the newest box, threw it in the truck, and went to a new install. ran about 50 feet of cable, terminated the ends, hooked it up, nothing. rebuild both ends, nothing. finally we went back to the office and checked everything we could. finally, we switched to an older cable that was mounted on the building and it worked. pulled all the cable back, and took it to the office. tested it up one side and down the other. finally i cut off a 5 foot section and terminated the ends, and it worked. started messing with the cable, cutting it back, and discovered that every dozen feet or so, there where huge gaps in the sheathing of the inner wires. worst part was, we had ordered several cases of that brand of cable.
when is is using active guidance and control. and some would say when is not using "ready made" motors. what he is launching is a glorified bottle rocket with an altimeter to tell it when to eject the chute. (just don't let him hear you or me say that)
Ah, no. At my school, the campus police are apparently under the direction of the state police, as is is a 'state university' which apparently renders unto them more powers than the local city police.
scary huh?

caffeine free diet soda. for when you are low on artificial coloring.
if it snows, i doubt the milk will spoil if the power goes out. automatic refrigeration in the big room outside your house happens with snow.
snow != sand unfortunately.

don't you know swamps emit methane? OH NOES!

Thank you. you have said what i was thinking of typing out. saved my fingers. if i had not posted already here, i'd be modding you up.
and the electricity for your electric lawn mower comes from.....DING! thats right alex! a coal fired power plant!
WHOOSH!

soy sauce has a lot of salt in it. i'm raining on everyone's parade today, don't feel bad.
you know, Dihydrogen monoxide is lethal in large quantities.
