Methanol is nice & all, but it's got a much lower amount of energy content than gas. Sure that gallon will cost less and put out a little less pollutants, but on the flipside you'll end up paying for even more methanol and put out more pollutants to reach the same destination. Methanol also probably will not make a good match for anywhere that gets very cold given it's flashpoint is 11C (52F). Gasoline's flashpoint is -45C (-113F) which I'd wager you would be more worried about the impending Armageddon if the tempature was that low. Methanol & Ethanol are both neat (you can thank politicians for promising farmers to sell their corn for them), but at the end of the day something like biodiesel will be more likely to do the job if they can get the yields up high enough. Get a #5 and the oil they cooked it with to go.
The "cars" are yes, but you appear to be missing the part about the enegery used to get the crude processed and to you. That isn't exactly a "clean" process and do you want to make any wagers on what kind of energy is used to get that crude processed? Oh right...COAL.
Those online gambling sites are about as reputable as Las Vegas Casinos back in the mob days. Theres a bit of a consumer protection thing going on here. In the US B&M gambling places are pretty heavily scrutinized to try and make sure no fishy buisness is going on with advertiseing and that the games aren't rigged (I like in Las Vegas and deal with a few casinos). These companies that are outside of the US? No oversight whatsoever. Plus the whole thing where the government wants it's cut on something like 3.3 billion. I hate taxes as much as the next person, but something like gambling where proffit is assured? Not to mention online? Tax the shit out of it. Nothing "productive" is going on there with that money. Some of it miaswell benifit the taxpayer (we get some nice taxbreaks here b/c of it).
Heh...god your simpleminded. My entire post was a satire on your previous post. Oh well...fanboys & trolls don't think too heavily before posting. I get moded insightful and you get troll. Judgeing by your posts overall you seem like the usual brain-damaged digger with anger management issues we get here.
Yeah and if the DS was still doing "tech demo" games it would be irrelevant at this point. Looking into both things sufficiently your going to comment on before rattling off how both are "dumb" makes you look less dumb and keep others like me from having to post this kind of BS. Such games on the DS such as Brain Age, Big Brain Academy, Magnetica, Nintendogs, Sudoku, etc are anything BUT "tech demos." It's funny though, for the first year or two any new things like the DS people decry every game as a tech demo. Do you even know what a tech demo is? A tech demo is an "incomplete product to show functionality" aka "prototype." I don't know of any games on the DS that I could call tech demos. There have been plain shitty games from companies like EA, but that's just the norm.
Now the Eye Toy? I can agree with you there. That "gimmick" is more an attempt by Sony to try and steal a little of Nintendo's thunder without following through with it. I'm no Nintendo fanboy. Hell it was nice to see Nintendo get dethroned as the king of the hill so they could have some competition. The DS & the Wii is their way of fighting back and I must say I was impressed at E3.
Actually it's heat over the lifetime of the battery that drops Li-ion batteries primarily. Most people's experience with Li-ion is with laptops which supprise supprise get quite hot with use, get left in hot cars, other very warm locations, and are usualy either fully charged or fully discharged which does the most to drop the batteries lifespan. This is the average loss of Li-ion pulled from Wikipedia for each year of the batteries lifespan.
Storage Temperature --- 40% Charge ---- 100% Charge
0 C (32 F) -- 2% loss after 1 year -- 6% loss after 1 year
25 C (77 F) - 4% loss after 1 year -- 20% loss after 1 year
40 C (104 F)- 15% loss after 1 year - 35% loss after 1 year
60 C (140 F)- 25% loss after 1 year - 40% loss after 3 months

I played with it @ E3. It was flipping awesome. The Wii and the DS are the only things keeping me on console gameing at the moment. I have a PC for pretty graphics.
And btw...you won't be "waveing" the controler around for the most part. Most of the stuff at E3 was very point & click driven. The swining the controler around was mostly done with the party & sports style games. Feels quite natural to me.
Or perhaps the apendix has not yet evolved to it's intended "useful" state. The apendix is not necicarily a "once usefull" part of our bodies. Evolution goes both ways. The apendix could just be in an "inbetween state" of still evolving to a more useful and vital state.
And the realization that some burly fucker with a huge hunk of metal on his head and a huge Guts Sword named Trianglehead was the realization of your character's sins (killing his wife). That one kinda...left me disturbed to say the least. The thing is with videogames the player doesn't necicarily "get" the overtones like with a movie. Most are paying attention as to "what do I do next" and not "what does this mean" like with movies. As such...not a whole lot of people know the meaning to something like Trianglehead other than "OH S#!T!!! KILL IT!!! KILL IT!!! Fsk it!!! RUN!!!"
Yeah too bad roughly 90% of all fingerprint readers can be foiled with gummybears or sillyputty (and what selff-respecting company wants to pay extra for the 10 percentile?). The fingerprint is even still left on the reader from the last person who used it. Fingerprint readers are a bit of a joke to say the least. They are like writeing down your password every time you log in and leaving it on your desk.
Then whats needed is that both parties need to consent to the abortion. To make it more clean-cut the man only gets a say if the two are married. Just a crazy idea I'm throwing out there. Because in all honesty if the woman wants the abortion bad enough it's going to happen in a hospital, some hole in the wall, Mexico, or the woman takeing a drug thats supposed to abort the pregnancy, but either nearly kills or does kill the woman too. If it's legal it can happen in the correct location with the proper care where profesionals can go over the ramifications with the woman and/or get her to put the child up for adoption, or well theres the alternatives.
Uhhh...right...Gears of War was nothing, Oakmi, Rainbow Six: Vegas, the new Zelda, Bioshock, Crysis, Prey, and the list goes on. Killzone was pretty, but whoopty fuckin-do! There was a hell of allot more impressive stuff there. Hell Zelda doesn't even come close on graphics and I was more impressed by it. Oh wait...I know why. I was able to play Zelda.
Don't forget probably 1/4 - 1/3 of MS's XBoxs likely have chips in them. Hell I have two with chips. One sees occasional gameplay, but for the mostpart it's used for Xbox Media Center and the other one is only used for XBMC (the Replay stream over network kicks major booty).
Buy a T-Shirt. They cost maybe a couple bucks more than a CD, download your fill of albums, and the artist gets over half of the sale I believe. Concerts pay the artist far more than CDs too. All artists have some form of "swag" they sell (usually directly on thier website so they make more). It's not a perfect solution, but it works for me.
Videogame rentals in Japan are illegal. Nintendo got that through back in the NES days. They do exist though, but usualy in back-allies. Usualy nasty places law enforcement does not go >_>
Remeber this about anything that can absorb large ammounts of energy very fast. It can release that energy just as fast and unexpectedly. With a release that fast your looking at a VERY hazerdious explosion. These Cap-Batteries are nothing new in all honesty. They have been hindered by the very small ammounts of surface energy (which is the big thing here) and thier uncanny ability to explode especially when they have too much power pumped into them. The better solution is the half-life batteries. Much more practical. You just need to get people to dispose of them and realize there is an atomic decay that is 100% safe going on in them that makes them last for years. Would put the battery industry outa bisness though.
The VC (or Classic) controler will plugg into the Wiimote. I was at E3 and thier display had each controler plugging into the Wiimote. The Wiimotes themselves however were plugged into the Wii at E3, but primarily so they didn't disapear.
That was the point. Not to win and lose games based on who can be 1337 and zerg rush first. RA2 was built to have fun with and the balance is perfect atm. RA2 is still alive and kicking and no ones forgotten about it. Only reason not a whole lot has been done with it in terms of "tweaking" is the company that made it was closed by EA, but still patches happen. They however decided to make another game instead of just milking the game for fsking ever (C&C 3 anyone?). Blizzard has this problem with releaseing a game and then just milking it to where people have bought the game 2 or 3 times. It's worse than doing a shitty sequel.

Amen...damn people deserve the high intrest loan when they can't seem to figure that out.
Ooops my bad. Can you tell it's been a while since I've played the game?

No...the 42nd victim "was" The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. Too bad about that though.
