Yes, it is a good because it is about saving linguistic "DNA" before languages go extinct. There is a lot of language, herbal, anthropological, cultural, historical info that is stored in languages. classic case is that tribal languages have vast amounts of plant medicine knowledge. Also it is quite amazing how one tiny language with 30 speakers can unravel some puzzling linguistic problem. Sort of roughly in parallel to DNA research on tiny nemotodes can reveal a lot of useful genomic knowledge about "high level" animals like us, so a tribal language can reveal a lot about megalanguages.
Not a problem. They will just have to pump water back up into the Austrian Alps with it. You Naysayers are so blind to see what a great future is coming oh so closer.
...in which bees are fed glucose instead of going foraging. They are not going out and pollinating the environment and bringing back bio-rich foodstuffs. They are being fed an effectively sterile product from a monoculture, that enhances a monoculture world - bio-feedback with a bad outcome.

- he made the largest IT company in the world.
- he was not a geek, and appealed to "arty" types - so way less competition for "reverence".
- he marketed things that the market didn't know it wanted.
and probably lots of others.

A few years ago Google Maps had integrated wonderful public transport information for Vienna, Austria. And then it suddenly vanished, and so now on Google Maps when you click on an underground station, you are just shown a link to wienerlinien.at and the comment "Note: Public transit coverage may not be available in this area.", rather than station info.
I have a problem that it takes X m of land, Y 1000's of liters of water, and N2 and P runoff to produce this meat. We cannot feed the world with current farming practices - we need to get those animals of 60% of the world's arable land and not requiring so much water and energy to make protein.
No, we don't. Too much of that ag produce is going into feeding cows, pigs, etc and in producing biodiesel. With biodiesel they are only counting carbon savings, and not counting water, nitrogen, phosphorous and hidden energy costs (e.g. in producing fertilizer)
The US should have spent the 500 Billion or so it wasted on lies about Iraq on researching renewable energy, and the Middle East would have returned to its peaceful irrelevance as oil would no longer have been strategically so important.
please explain how to express the differences between "Ukraine" and "The Ukraine" in Russian, which doesn't have any concept of definite/indefinite, but rather uses different cases or "one" or plural to expresses different grades of indefiniteness, but not for country names.
"The Ukraine" is not insulting - if so please explain how "The Crimea" is insulting or perhaps how "Die Türkei" shows Germans insulting Turks.
It is not at all a diminutive either.
Go and google "The Ukraine" and look up Oxford English Dictionary and you will find such interesting linguistic jewels. "The Ukraine", "The Crimea", "The Sudan", "The Netherlands", "The Congo", "The Ivory Coast".
Now get off my lawn....
people who are "vehement about global warming" are not rejecters of change, are really aware we are one of countless other species, say we should stop being arrogant, and are trying to convince the rest that we should all be good neighbors. A good neighbor willfully doesn't destroy the environment for others within a few generations and fixes up his mistakes.
I agree, our world has never had a "normal", but there is a MASSIVE difference between natural change on geological time scales, and deliberate change WITHIN a few generations, giving species no time to adapt.
not if the predator was dependent on one particular prey species for survival at one part of the year, or for a part of their lifecycle. Some moths or beetles or wasps are highly specialized at the larval stage to predate a small amount of prey species, but perhaps only a few weeks later they can eat more species or be vegetarian.
yes, they are food for numerous water organisms, insects and small birds. Mosquitoes vanishing would be disastrous. If their predators starve to death, then other bugs that no longer have predators will become a plague.

How do I do this? where are the best websites?
So this is how Cameron wants to find his unobtainium.

Because you cannot read a hypertext from beginning to end.

Is that a city in Beria, or do you mean Novosibirsk in Siberia? Please spell check before you submit.
