I worked for a company that falsified their PCI compliance. All you have to do is lie. Most of the auditors are simply box checkers and there's never any real test.
Until people start going to prison for these offenses, the biggest punishment to the companies will be paying for shitty "identity theft protection" for a year.
Actually, the electric companies DO care how much electricity you use. Ask the people in California. They have rolling blackouts all the time.
Electric companies really don't want to build more power plants. It's expensive and time consuming. It really is in everyone's best interest to minimize consumption.
That being said, I'm not a proponent of limiting consumption to anyone. If you're willing to pay for it, you should be allowed to consume it.
Another article also notes that the city (can't remember which) with the highest level of skin cancer is exactly the same distance from the south pole as Washington DC is from the north pole. Last I recall, the ozone hole didn't extend over DC.
If real science can't explain how the hole in the ozone is repairing faster than predicted then junk science doesn't have a chance with "global warming". (i'm sorry, it's "climate change" now)
What? Overpopulated? Have you ever been to the United States? How about OUTSIDE any metropolitan city? I can travel 30 miles in any direction and be far far from any 'over population'.

Bullshit. I just gave a black man a thumbs up for open carrying in Chik-Fil-A yesterday.
In the snow. Uphill. Both ways. While I can't go back as far as you, I do remember using a 110 baud modem.

What is this, an ad for Icy-Hot or K-Y Warming lubricant?
