and why "Save the Jews" was never a rallying cry for the war, to say the least.
The other reason for this is that, during WWI, the British government used "Save the french/dutch/etc nuns" with graphic stories and posters about the vile Hun raping and killing the nuns. After the war, this was found to be a lie, and so further use of the tactic for recruitment during WW2 would have been met with "Yeah, sure the Jews are being gassed"
I have a dual-monitor setup (both CRTs). When I look at my main screen, my secondary screen (in my peripheral vision) appears to flicker, but when I look at my secondary screen my main display is fine in peripheral vision.
Also, when changing the resolution of the main display to something with a ratio of 1280*1024 or 1600*1200 has a 50% chance of making the image go all skewed, stretched horizontally and interpolated, and when in this state the monitor hisses in a way that does not sound healthy for a CRT monitor. Changing it to something like 1360/1024 and then back to 1600*1200/1280*1024 can make the normal image appear again. This infuriates me, but I'm told it's because my refresh rate is set wrong.
You mean astrology. Astronomy is black holes, nebulae, mass spectrometers, Hubble space telescope. Astrology is "you were born between the 18th of march and the 22nd of April, so today you will encounter a lucky find, but be wary of feelings which at first seem to be blah blah blah..."
I object to the "tebibyte" "mebibytes" etc naming convention purely because the word doesn't flow as well as "terabyte" "megabyte" etc. I would use L, or R, or some other flowing phoneme, but not B or indeed any other plosive.
Of course not, but with a new insane surplus of gold, new uses might be found for it. That goes for platinum and other currently-rare-but-soon-to-be-abundant raw materials.
They might have thought of that; the new Violent Crime Reduction Bill (VCRA) will limit sales of (among other things) paintball markers, blank firing replicas, airsoft guns and the like.
I can't help but feel they'd do better to crack down on actual illegal guns.
Is our understanding of meteors very much deeper than that? Might our understanding of the world be seen as no more than "Run away from this, it is bad, eat that, it is good"?
On a similar note, Haagen-Dasz is American, and was never even founded by any Dutch people. Some boardroom full of suits gave a it a foreign sounding name.
Can we have an accurate estimate of the probability of a specific impact 30 years in the future? What if we change the course of an asteroid such that it has a new, better chance of hitting us the year after?
I don't think science even does that - science does not try to find the truth, science tries to explain observations. Whether these explanations are the truth is irrelevant, so long as they explain the observations.

Which flows better, tebibyte or telibyte?
However, one day Steam will not exist. How will we play HL2 then?
Why don't we highlight the TLD in the url?

In Soviet Russia, YOU depress news!
MY EYES! The goggles, they do nothing!
Which university does a degree in Ufology?
So, would that be the OTTOALPC (one ten thousandth of a laptop per child) project?
But does it run Linux?
Won't somebody think of the pirates?
There are many different kinds of asteroid. Some are ore-bearing, but some are just rock with a negligible mineral content.

Yes, I didn't mention that. Sorry.

"You searched for Viacom. No results were found. Did you mean Torrentspy?"
I have a large company, and it knows exactly what my right hand is doing...
A)Your vehicle is obnoxiously heavy
B) You are spraying (non-ignited) petrol out the back with a hose as an eccentric form of jet propulsion
