How about a friendly wager? My damning you and your entire bloodline to hell for eternity (including your pope) vs. your catastrophic AGW scenarios. Whichever happens first wins! Good luck.
I have not made any claims as to whether it is happening or not. Just looking for data, that's it. Now I have read that Greenland was once green, yet personally have seen very little if any climate change during my short stay here while being very active outdoors including farming the land. This leads me to think while climate change certainly does happen man is not accelerating the process much if at all. Your "overwhelming evidence" gets destroyed regularly so trying to figure out if it all comes from Al Gore or if anyone else is conducting any independent research. Wait until you guys get around to studying Pangaea, your heads will explode! And yes you are afraid. Afraid of being wrong. Science is never settled kiddo.
Nice try blaming the Republicans but the political deck was stacked a long time ago. The Clinton's and Obama are both right of Reagan. Our entire government is right center, ask anyone who has a view from outside the United States. The Democratic voters are today's "court fools".
Best way to rob a bank? Get a job at one and slack. If you pick a large enough one you can easily go years without doing a thing and sitting in a cube is slightly better than jail since you get to go home at night. Say you last 2 yrs @ 50k per year... that's 100k before taxes, robbing a bank of a similar amount by force will get you more than 2 yrs and there won't be internet in your cell.
The place with the highest concentration of iPhones and iPads is located between Baltimore and D.C. That's where I would expect to find the most intelligent people.
Wow. Just wow. The leap it took to correlate Apple product ownership with intelligence was amazing. I congratulate you, that was awesome.
Newsflash Hollywood is dead. That is if something that was already dead can die again. Look at how they are currently raking it in, big budget action flicks like The Avengers. A last hurrah before personal computing power allows the average Joe to create just as special effects at home. Goodbye Hollywood, you certainly made up for your lack of originality with stylish marketing but now it's time for the next level.
Ok say those same10 do control it and decide to pass additional laws. If the laws they pass do not fit within the framework of the law of the land they are declared unconstitutional and thrown out. Democracy does not have that additional check.
I'm quite fine with the constitutional republic of the United States that I reside in. Not perfect, but works. In fact it even allows a democratic party to exist within it. "A government of laws, and not of men" - John Adams
Ah democracy, where 51% screw the other 49% correct? For example you take 1000 people and convince 500 they are crips and 500 they are bloods (or dems/republicans whatever). The population is now divided. Time to conquer. So 10 of those people begin switching between sides, always being part of the majority and thus always "winning". Chances are those 10 people are the ones who pushed and/or implemented democracy in the first place. Those 10 then become the 1% aka elites. And 99% of us end up worse off. Democracy? No thanks.
Huge, huge source of revenue for the boys in blue. The solution is to make the law not a drop. How can you be expected to make a reasonable decision on your ability to drive when alcohol impairs your judgement? But this will likely never happen, cause then the police would have to spend their time dealing with real criminals who don't quite have the track record of paying their fines as honest folk who were overserved at happy hour or have a lead foot do. Passing out DWI's and speeding tickets are much more profitable than responding to actual crime, much less preventing it by having a presence in troubled neighborhoods were they have long been simply too scared to go. To protect and to serve. Not you or me though, we are only to be pick-pocketed every chance they get. Dems the brakes.
A lot of them are ok w/ the jail-rape, a more appropriate spelling of gangster would be gayngster. Yes crime is gay and the majority of "powerful" criminals are gay males.
'nuff said. In all seriousness though is it time to start demanding a criminal investigation of Apple? Their basic strategy appears to be to steal IP, then manufacture product with the cheapest possible hardware with a work force just above slave labor, occasionally sacrificing a few workers in the process. Then make it impossible to swap out parts without the machine self destructing and the average Joe will not even know his shiny new mac is built out of garbage. And that's just the front end. Apple is supposedly the most valuable IT company based on market cap, but have yet less than 10% of the market in in personal computers and very little presence in servers and supercomputing. Oh yeah, Mr. Jobs has already been caught backdating stocks. Not saying Apples books are cooked... they are more likely deep fried. Basic psychology tells us when criminals get caught they often perpetrate a much larger fraud in order to prove they are smarter than the justice system. And so far they are. Let's see how high that stock can go!
Now I'm going to go back to listening to my iPod.
The first ticket would be to point out this is a heart we live on not a earth and when the BP gets too high a heart well, explodes. Peak oil. That's stupidarity. See the problems a single misspelling can cause? Get me to the rainb asap! It's gonna blow!

Would love to see the results and raw data of all your experiments proving climate change. Please post links.

The Right should spend their time and money on providing a realistic alternative than attacking it.
Stay classy, huckamania. Enjoy your 4 more years of reckoning.
RIMM stock is on sale if you care to wager on above POV.
They ended up giving foreign hackers something high-end and new to hack our OWN computers with.
Yep, if true what Obummer really accomplished was making Iran (and everyone else paying attention) A LOT smarter.

9 month minimum mission. Making babies in space and it took a few tries?

is the only thing that can save Apple now.

Awesomely correct, here's proof.
And cocaine is the line(s) between genius and insanity.

You can also rearrange the letters in Earth to spell Heart!
Or maybe Too Many Damned People. It is just as likely all funded by Hollywood to mine clever, fresh dialogue for their tv shows. Hellevision indeed.

I drive past at least 3 Best Buys driving to Microcenter. Always a good experience.
Both the iPod and iPod mini are massive failures from an engineering or even usability perspective as you can't change the batteries.

A techie would also quickly notice that the "terrorist chatter" is originating from the next cube over.
