The Phoenix will rise from the...well, not ashes, but dendritic crystals perhaps.

Ah yes Houston, the largest city in the US without zoning laws. I love seeing skyscrapers so close to residential homes though and I'm not really being coy. I think Houston's character is aptly described as eclectic.

Let's see what kind of absurd talking points come out of this, at the end of the day expect outright lies to be gladly paid forward by the "journalists" / stenographers with corporate media. Frankly if they succeed more power to them for exerting that much influence over us proud, "free" people.

That's what I think of when I hear tweenbot

They didn't create it but they successfully marketed it and made it synonymous with "tech" when attached to another name/brand. My comment was only in response to the start of TFA where it painted the picture Nintendo wanted to pretend Apple doesn't exist. To that point, using the flavor of the month i seems a little silly - there's really no point to flame because you are flame retardant.

If Nintendo doesn't intend to compete directly with Apple then why jump on the bandwagon with the "i" addition? I know it's trendy on everything from the iRobot to the i-Dog but in my opinion they show their hand with the name.

or try their hardest at least.

Insightful, really? I can't tell if it's reticulated or not, how is this insightful...

Perfect format, they should co-market with screen wipes.

Point taken unless Klax'nor is at the other end of the remote and they start swarming.

If you sign up now you won't get hive duty and can assist as a pollinator.

I appreciate the sentiments but our hard-earned tax dollars have been going to the other side of the world to spread "freedom" via cluster bombs and depleted uranium shells to fight the evil terrorists. Forget $800B, we've spent upwards of $1 TRILLION dollars there, not to mention the long-term health care costs to the thousands of disabled veterans. It's easy to rail against portions of government spending that you're philosophically opposed to, but none of these so-called fiscal conservatives bothered to bat an eye at this or any other previous government expansion. Shows where their priorities are that's for sure. But now that Republicans are bringing out the specters of "welfare queens" and other wasted money now all of a sudden it's Don't Tread On Me.

That monumental earth-shattering project is much larger in scope. It is 315 miles from the Sichuan earthquake's epicenter but in any case, if this phenomenon is true perhaps it may not have been related to this earthquake but will wreak havoc one day. Of course, they can just keep denying anything and not worry about the dam impact.
