humanity has never lived sustainably, and we shouldn't try.
What the fuck? Are you hoping for some magical technological saviour to all of our logistical problems, or do you just really enjoy the idea of overpopulation, and people killing each other for resources?
You know what is one of the traits I like least in a person? When they assume that it's everyone else who is ignorant, rather than check their facts.
Yes, one meaning of converse - apparently the only one you know - is to take part in a conversation. However, there is another meaning which has a similar meaning to inverse and obverse.
converse adj (prenominal) reversed; opposite; contrary n something that is opposite or contrary a categorical proposition obtained from another by the transposition of subject and predicate, as no bad man is bald from no bald man is bad Etymology: 16th Century: from Latin conversus turned around; see
So basically, your post is laden with iron. Very irony in fact. Such disdain. Wow.
It's not ignorant to think that food plays a role in bowel problems. There are many recognised conditions that are aggravated by certain foods.. so to think that simply taking a pill, but continuing to eat any old shit is a good way to treat it.. that's pretty a pretty ignorant way of looking at it.
Going on a low carbohydrate diet a few years ago (to lose weight) cleared up several other problems that I wouldn't have even related to diet at the time (such as my nose almost always being irritated and blocked).
I don't need to lose any weight right now, but after reading this thread, I'm thinking I'll go back to no carb again for a while and see how it affects me.
Sure, that's what science "knows" about it so far, but the idea that gut bacteria are a deciding factor also fits perfectly along with your "genetic or environmental" concept. If all you have is a hammer (genetics, environmental observation) then everything looks like a nail. Maybe there's more to it than bacteria, but the chemicals that we put into our body very obviously can affect behaviour and mental state.
Yep, but the one that helps disrupted the already established bacteria, probably by reducing their supply chain. The fact that this chemical was elevated 48 time above normal levels in the autistic mice suggests that it's produced by the "bad" bacteria somehow.
Probably quite a lot through the course of the day, though I suppose a lot of them might die in that environment. I guess I should have said "gut", then. When I say "stomach" I'm often referring to the whole intestinal area, the same as someone might say "lie on your stomach", when in fact they mean your belly..
I wonder if there's some underlying difference in the neurology of the autism-model mice such that the metabolite "sets off" the autism-model behaviours rather than anxiety. Or perhaps the metabolite causes anxiety in both communities but the anxiety only then "sets off" the autism-model behaviours in the autism-model mice.
Is it not the case that the metabolite is necessary for the problem bacteria to replicate - but that the healthy mice don't have these bacteria in the first place, so introducing it won't have the same effect?
Autism is genetic and is also influenced / is a function of the environment they are brought up in
Did you consider that it might not be passed on through DNA at all, and completely is a result of the environment, including the bacteria that your mum's side of the family have in their body? Or perhaps your DNA makes you more susceptible to these bacteria. I've been trying to figure out how exactly food affects my mood and behaviour for a while now..
The thing is that if it's gut microbes, then good food will cause problems too. It will depend exactly what the bacteria's preferred food source is though. And toxins from bacteria in your stomach can absolutely affect your mood and ability to function.
Good point:p I was just thinking of my friends who are always concerned about a few pennies difference on groceries, but I guess they can't afford a new car in the first place. And electric cars aren't going to be great in the used market until battery tech/cost improves.
Considering the price of energy and the whole economic crisis, a lot of people would probably rather plug in manually if the losses are any more than a couple of percent. Even 1% would probably put a lot of people off if they were aware of it.
There's a reason that there's "American English" and "English".. I'm not sure why you have to make it about "winning". That's one of the major flaws when it comes to humanity in general, not being able to realise how life doesn't always need to be about "us vs them". Or "US vs them". Ho ho ho..
From the definitions I can find, a barge is always a boat, whether it's powered or not.
And from Wikipedia, this looks like another case of the US having a different perception of things from the rest of the world, because it sounds like all your barges are basically just trailers for tugboats.
Barges have to be flat bottomed, though I'm guessing this thing may be flat bottomed. Barges can also have their own propulsion, for example the river homes that people pilot around the canals here in the UK are barges.
Not sure why you're saying I'm using him as a "scapegoat". He was the driver, so controlling the car was his responsibility. If it was Paul driving (a possibility), then it would have been his responsibility.
lets be honest here, you don't shakedown a ~350,000 supercar like a F150 do you?
If you're wanting to shake it down like a race car, why not take it to a track? If the car was having problems with stalling, then to drive enthusiastically on public roads was putting other people's lives at risk. That's very different from accepting a risk to themselves.
I'm really not sure what the point of your post is.
Considering the speed limit was 45mph, and this was basically a track car, do you really think that a crash at the marked limit would have been fatal?
I'm not saying it's impossible, since the cause of death was probably the fire rather than the impact, but it doesn't seem that likely that they were going below the limit.
I'm pretty sure they're just quoting an episode for a few years ago. I remember him saying a few times how 911s are known for being very unforgiving. Jeremy knows how to drive, and knows that in the end, it's the driver's responsibility to be safe.
It sounds like this guy was actually a professional race driver, or at least part of an amateur racing team. He shouldn't have been trying to push the envelope on a public road though. It's horrible and sad news, but obviously the driver was being an idiot on public roads, and the type of car he was driving shouldn't really be relevant.

Good point. Better change his statement to:
Environmentalist over-reaction to damn near everything doesn't do them any favors. It just makes you look like reactionary nutjobs.
As for saying that "there's nowhere to go" after draining these reserves.. well, it's possible to desalinate salt water by various means.
You have a serious problem with anything other than boolean logic, huh? Good luck with that.

Irritation causes inflammation. It might appear to be a disease if you can't figure out what is causing the irritation.

Why am I going to buy a locked down set top box from Valve to play Steam games when I can do the same thing on my PC now?
Oh gee, I guess you figured out a problem in their plan - I can't believe they didn't notice that!
Either that or you're not part of their intended market.
Even if a Left wing Socialist group like the Nazi party was voted in they could never get a foothold on an action that would harm other races.
You mean actions like embarrassing funny coloured people at an airport, or invading their country?
Trolololol. If you don't like them, don't watch them :p My favourite one so far didn't actually have him in it either.

I read it that way too
