The obvious reason is that the phase change of water transfers a lot more heat than simple convection cooling through a radiator. You think a cooling tower is big. Make a radiator with the same heat transfer capacity. It'll be ginormous, as my four year old daughter likes to say.
Probably true. As an example, you can probably see a word between "don't" and "as much" in your post above, and my browser is rendering it in near UV so I can't see it at all!
Of course, in a real concert, there will always be some sounds, whether audience coughs or paper rustling, or planes flying overhead the concert hall, or HVAC, or rain on the roof, etc. Cage expected this of course.
only if you charge admission. If you could do that, I'd be impressed. Oh, and I think you have to sit at a piano, but of course you can find a restaurant with a piano in it, I'm sure.
Who said anything about relying on them to get work done? The whole thread has been basically about definitions: what is an accident? My point was that while some definitions include something about accidents generally having negative or undesired effects, the definition is not strictly limited to those. I tend to be pretty cautious myself, and I've watched a few safety videos, too. I notice they usually use computer animations nowadays and don't actually show anything gory, but they can be interesting to watch. "Why the hell did they do THAT?!" You can watch some here. I remember the one titled "Half an Hour to Tragedy" had a big wtf moment, when people went back in the convenience store...that was filled with propane gas.
What if I write down the mp3's bits (maybe in hexadecimal...to save time) on college-ruled notebook using a medium Bic ballpoint pen? Then how much does it weigh? And can I sell that?
Well, I'm sure John Cage's 4'33" is still covered by copyright, although I haven't seen any good recordings of it, so it matters little. I should see if it's on YouTube.

I suppose humor recognition could be outsourced, but the language barrier might be an issue.

I tried some of that 1N sulfuric acid contact lens solution, and now I can see ultraviolet!
Eh. He's a moran.
Probably true.

"...increase the pressure in your inner hear (akin to compressing when scuba-diving: you pinch your nose while blowing air through the nostrils)"
Also called Valsalva maneuver.

Silly argument. If there is a crayon with the word printed on it, then it's a color.
I like "burnt sienna".
Actually, it's several thousand dollars, and you have to mail it (well, not "it", but a maybe a postcard) from federal prison.
Modded Interesting? Thanks for the karma, but I don't really need it, and it was a *joke* (all good jokes have some element of truth of course).
According to your sig, you also work for the Federal government, so you'd better be careful asking such questions!
Valve is the British term for [vacuum] tubes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_tube

2a) And a warning sticker on the back that says "Do not look into hard drive with remaining eye."
No, the answer would be "No" because the question should have been about "Steamboat Willie".
Some even have positive consequences. Take the discovery of penicillin, for example.
Well, we now know he is not a partial douchebag, whatever that is.

Motorola and GE had six sigma a long time ago. They should have just asked.
Of course not. They're colliding large hadrons.
They might be. Nobody knows. They're anonymous.
Not only that, they could both be true at the same time!
ice burg = city of ice
iceberg = mountain of ice
it turns out that the latter is the correct spelling.
