For those of you that haven't seen that Final Cut yet, the changes are all pretty minor. The biggest change is an alteration of a line of Roy's dialogue. In the scene between him and Dr. Tyrell, in the original versions of the movie he says, "I wan't more life, focker." In the new version, it was changed to "father". Other than that, the out of place blue sky at the end is made cloudy, and there are various sub-5 second shots throughout, which mostly serve to strengthen the romance between Deckard and Rachel. I can't speak to the quality of the re-mastering, as a theater is a poor place to compare to dvd.
Uranium is also present at significant enough concentrations in the ocean that it could be economical to recover in the future, provided the price is right.
Ian Malcom: If there's one thing the history of evolution
has taught us, it's that life will not be contained.
Life breaks free. It expands to new territories. It
crashes through barriers. Painfully, maybe even..
dangerously, but and...well, there it is.
Wu: You're implying that a group of composed entirely of
females will breed?
Malcom: No, I'm simply saying that life, uh... finds a way.
It's an interesting article, but it mainly talks only about mammals and occasionally vegetation. The effect of radiation on high reproduction insects would be far more interesting. Wasp populations in the exclusion zone exhibit a wider diversity of patterns on their bodies, but I believe their populations are doing just fine. Mushrooms that live in nutrient rich top soil are also thriving. Fish in the reactor coolant water pools near Chernobyl itself are also doing quite well.
There's a rare breed of horses, called Przewalski's horses, that had gone exinct in the wild. Scientists and breeders had been looking for a suitable site to reintroduce them, but it proved difficult to find an ample amount of their natural habitat that hadn't been developed on. The exclusion area around Chernobyl is ideal for Przewalskis, and two herds have been introduced there. So far, so good.
Just look at the lead-up to the war in Iraq and the support it had then versus where it is at now. Point taken, but, for example, why do people keep clinging on to the idea that volcanoes emit more CO2 than human activity? Are these exaggerated arguments going to eventually lose steam?
Interesting point about the pine beetles and malaria, I had not heard any more on the subjects since seeing the film. As for hurricane strength, everything I have ever heard/read has pointed towards stronger hurricanes as sea temperatures rise.
What this all demonstrates, I suppose, is that there isn't a lot of consensus about much of this, except for the basic global warming science itself. Gore is then presenting the worst case scenario of global warming as if there is consensus, when there is not. Is this the only way to make people listen?

I don't think I can handle that much awesome in one headline. Careful there, submitters, some of us have conditions.
How is this any different from chopping down rainforests to grow corn for traditional ethanol production?
...reminds me of this thing men and women used to do together, before the internet, before the dark times.

I would be confident if I had The Chief on my side.
Most new cell phones have the capability to record video, do they count?
In light of this post I propose: +1, Frightening.

Let's aim this probe at Uranus and see what's going on.
