There sure are a lot of really good followers in this country.

Yeah, everyone who supports drug legalization just wants an easier supply.

It couldn't possibly be that people are more afraid of police with too much power than they are of lazy f-in hippies who take too many drugs.

Yeah, the whole "climate change" thing is some nutty marketing idea. The simple fact is that the astronomical temperature of Earth is a fairly constant 300K if I recall my sums correctly. As with all facts in the real world, it isn't really that simple. All astronomical bodies have a variety of diff...

The first indication I had that AGW was a scam was when the proponents didn't follow their own advice while asking everyone else to give them money. This is about Al Gore actually flying in jets to go to speaking engagements, isn't it? The confusion of thought necessary to ignore blatant facts just...

So if I accept the science that says that the world is warming and that human action is responsible for at least a portion of it, I also have to accept that government intervention is the right thing to do about it and that the necessary intervention will make everyone poorer? I reject your reality ...

It appears to be an enhancement of this design:

Probably not death penalty. While they still have it on the books it's been over 30 years since anyone got the death penalty in Colorado, and trying to apply it here would open up a legal can of worms that might increase the odds of him ending up a free man before he dies.

As a note, this only validates the market not the results.

Hopefully getting good quality gear into the hands of more researchers will accelerate the pace of getting straight answers as to whether any of these effects exist and can be made useful.

The most that can be said about the new data analysis is it shows that US air temperatures aren't changing as fast as the Berkeley analysis says they are, and with a methodology that is still open to debate. It still shows a clear warming trend, and doesn't give any actual feedback on anthropic infl...

Does anyone else note the irony that this thread says "morality never changes" and cites an example where morality certainly has changed just in the last few decades? Has it really changed? In-group/out-group dynamics like this are persistent in all cultures and if suppressed in one area tend to ju...

A corporation is a collective of the share holders, and properly derives rights as such. Under my plan dividends paid to shareholders would be taxable income. To tax corporate income on top of that is double taxation, and a penalty for organized private cooperative economic activity. Not all corpor...

They're just making noise because the Koch report says otherwise.

I thought the Navy had their hands back in so things were going to be black for a while?

Does that mean the religious conservatives that are pushing so much moral legislation don't trust the god they profess to worship?

The US didn't have notable prohibitory drug laws until the 20th century, and the history of intrusive policing in the US has been entirely contained within that period. And now we are shifting into second gear bullsh*t. As has been explained to Simon and others, time and time and time again, they s...
