  6. It's been dropping for a long time on Ask Slashdot: Is the Bar Being Lowered At Universities? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I saw it start in the 60s when profs started inflating grades to keep students from losing their student draft deferments. More and more unqualified graduates entered the workforce and many went into education. It's been in a downward spiral ever since.

  7. Get with the program! on Iceland Considers Internet Porn Ban · · Score: 1

    The article says this is a "very progressive approach".........which means it can only be for your own good.

  19. Re:U.S Military mostly metric on USMA: Going the Extra Kilometer For Metrication · · Score: 1

    The military went metric because they had to deal with NATO. That's also why the US switched from the .45 1911A1 pistol (the finest pistol ever made) to the vastly inferior 9mm Beretta. A mistake which is gradually and quietly being rectified.

    Could be a problem........

    From The Telegraph:

    "Wind farm turbines wear sooner than expected, says study

    The analysis of almost 3,000 onshore wind turbines — the biggest study of its kind —warns that they will continue to generate electricity effectively for just 12 to 15 years.
    The wind energy industry and the Government base all their calculations on turbines enjoying a lifespan of 20 to 25 years.
    The study estimates that routine wear and tear will more than double the cost of electricity being produced by wind farms in the next decade."
