We won't run out. We (as in the USA) used to be the largest producer until China undercut our prices so we left the market. If we really needed them we could mine them again.
PS, Buckyballs are carbon and you can get them from soot from a candle flame. Rare earths are elements like samarium, neodymium, etc. You have some in the permanent magnets in your hard drives, if you have any of those.
Sorry, car stereo thief is not Jean Valjean. There are food banks, food stamps, homeless shelters. No one has to starve in our society. They might have to give up their pride.
Why would anything have to be manually copied? I can connect my phone to my laptop via USB or Bluetooth and transfer anything to it that will fit on it. In fact, it's connected right now, syncing files between the two.
It's clearly either a bad idea to get your news about the US from North Korea or Iran or to get your news about Iran and North Korea from the US, or both, wouldn't you say? So going outside the country is not guaranteed to avoid bias.
I don't understand your comment. He did use a metric unit. Pascals are newtons per square meter. I also used a metric unit: megapascals.
I think atmospheres would be the easiest to understand unit of pressure, but that is not a metric unit. Bars are metric and 1 bar is close to 1 atm. 1 atm = 1.01325 bars.
Yeah, I was surprised to hear that Chinese companies are doing all the road-building projects in Ethiopia now. When I was there just a couple years ago, it was Europeans.
Hmm...let's see...OK, you have a Club(TM) but you somehow attach it to one of the wheels instead of attaching it to the steering wheel. Not sure about that...
I would think that it would be a problem even if there is no log-in page, that by the time you've connected to the network, in a fast moving vehicle, you're already out of range. Wi-Fi range is much less than cell tower range, isn't it?
Sputnik wasn't about "winning the space race". It's what started it. Could have said "the Soviets got off the starting blocks first." Before that, the US was at the snack bar, not aware that a race was about to begin.

I should think that once it's hydrolyzed, it's no longer beef or pork anyway, technically. Isn't that good enough for Jews and Muslims?
They probably just want to hurry up and get to 10 (i.e. 'X') and they can just stay there and be like Apple.
Gotcha. OK. Anyway, hypothetical example is nothing but hypothetical. No one breaks into cars to steal food, at least not in North America.

Where's the mod points when I need them?!
Yes.
Richard Starkey (the one I've heard of) is not a natural-born US citizen, so...OK, let's not go there.
OK, that's not a bad idea. I meant to say "get your news *solely* from X".

Yeah, it's part of it. No such thing as a lazy genius. Or at least, geniuses accomplish something.
Seriously, why not just say 73 MPa? Kind of negates one of the major reasons to use SI by leaving off the prefix.

Ah. I wish I could undo my post now. Carry on.
Funny, but in case someone takes it seriously, it should be "lousy" (not "lousily") since "typing" was used as a noun (gerund), not as a verb.
Reminds me of that guy in a Monty Python skit: Arthur "2x10^-52" Jackson.

And if your pet rabbit is at the airport, please come get it.

Google "Ball Grid Array" and see if that doesn't answer your question.
FYI, while the mass of Mars is about 10% of Earth's mass, objects on Mars' surface have about 37% of their weight on Earth.
