    My moron-alert just went off. There a hell of a lot of perfectly safe things I wouldn't give to a three year old--like a glass of water with no lid.

    Regardless of who or what is being investigated, any individual can invoke the 5th unless they have been granted immunity from prosecution.

    Pretty sure you can always invoke the 5th, period. There may be no reason to do so if you have immunity from prosecution, but you can still do it (particularly if there are other things you don't have immunity for).

    After all, if you could run IT atop a Linux system should we oppose IT since IT would enable the tracking technology?

    Please keep your pronouns to a single referent. You've got three 'it's with two different things you're referring to. Stop it. Thank you.

    Their calculator says I'd have a BAC of 0.241 at 0 hours (even assuming that's accurate, in reality it'd be lower because those ten shots would be spaced over several hours). If my body reduced 0.02 per hour, I'd be at zero in roughly twelve hours. Their calculator says 0.096 in twelve hours (it's just using a 7g per hour processing rate, regardless of your age, weight, or gender--i.e. it's making shit up).

    That site's calculator has to be wrong--according to it if I had ten shots (44.3 ml each at 40%) ten hours later I'd still be at 0.121 BAC. Not a chance. I'd be hung over as hell, probably not entirely sober, but nowhere near that drunk.

    No, you've misunderstood how elections work in the US. You need 50%+1 of the votes--however in Presidential elections it is not the popular vote that is counted but the votes of the Electoral College. To be elected President you must have 50%+1 vote from the Electoral College, which you could theoretically win with as little as ~25% of the national popular vote. In virtually all other elections it's just 50%+1 of the popular vote.

    Conspiracy implies coordination/plotting. I think the GP's point was that no coordiantion was necessary, and that the conspiracy was emergent rather than plotted.

    That being said, he argued his point poorly by pointing to the IP/Media owners as the ones pulling all the puppet strings.
