  1. Economics science? on Paul Krugman Awarded Nobel Prize For Economics · · Score: 1

    Is it not pleonastic to say 'economics science'? The word 'economics' alone includes the meaning of it being science since the suffix '-ics' denotes arts, sciences, branches of study or profession. I could not resist!

  2. Sigh on Mayor Orders Mandatory Evacuation of New Orleans · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It is truly saddening to read some of the comments. You write about wanting to displace people just because New Orleans is below sea level. You say that people are themselves responsible if they continue to live in a city which is below sea level. Let me remind you that there are locations in the Netherlands which are more than two times below sea level compared to that of New Orleans. New Orleans is of course much more prone to storms than the aforementioned place but I do not see why technology could not solve this [reinforcement] issue. New Orleans is after all an important city.

  3. Theology on Wikipedia May Require Proof of Credentials · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The discovery of this deceit implies how difficult theology in reality is.

  4. Envy on Roomba + Wii remote + Perl = Awesome · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Come on, people. He did something we would never think of doing. Regardless of which object and what purpose the object which he controlled has, in my humble opinion it is well done. He got Slashdotted, we did not.
