Why in the world didn't they just go to one of the dozens of "roll your own" web site companies that specialize in this kind of thing?

They could have at least kept it in the US.....good grief......

Well said sir.

Where I work literally nobody is laying this at the feet of the Republicans or the House. At the most they think it's "that stupid Congress" and want to vote everybody out; most of them put the blame for the shutdown squarely on the Senate Democrats and Obama.

The House has been more than accommodating. They've sent up several bills with various forms of with--yes, look it up--varying numbers of bi-partisan votes. It's the Senate Democrats who are refusing to compromise, led by Harry "Why Would I Do That?!?" Reid.

This man isn't a troll; he's spot on accurate.

...that the BBC is fully aware of this, and is planning a special new series dedicated to re-running all of those "old episodes"....thus keeping the public domain thing from happening.

Ferret

Really how is that not the #1 vote option?

I wanted to do a home fuel cell generator for my new house but they just weren't ready when it came time to build (and still aren't). I would love to see them finally become practical.

Looking at the Wikipedia article on Manning (admittedly not the best source but probably reliable enough for this) I don't actually see any war crimes either committed or covered up.

It's entirely possible I've missed them....to what are you referring?

If this comes to fruition I'll be one of the first in line for it.

LOL! Warmites are so cute in their dogged insistence that only cherry-picked information be considered! I'll bet you believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy too.

It'll happen again.

No, this is NOT the "end of the world".

I find people who try to invoke Holocaust Denial by calling Skeptics of the deeply unproven AGW theory "Deniers" to have basically admitted they know they have no actual facts on their side.

Pathetic.

While that's a cute meme you're spouting, it's the Democrats and environmentalists who have protested the building of various solar power initiatives in the southwest and managed to stop several:

"Environmental Groups File Formal Protests Over Federal Plan to Expedite Desert Solar Power Projects in 6 Western States" - http://www.eastcountymagazine.org/node/10908

"BrightSource’s cancelled projects highlight hurdles for desert solar thermal plants" - http://gigaom.com/2013/04/04/brightsources-cancelled-projects-highlight-hurdles-for-desert-solar-thermal-plants/

"$2B Mojave Desert solar plant breaks ground" - http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/local/inland_empire&id=7749227

That last one that actually got built was by, you know, a Republican....

Just say'in.....perhaps reflexively categorizing "Republicans bad" and "Democrats good" isn't the best way to view the world...

Heh...showing that many here are only interested in cheap shots and not actual discussion, you've missed the mark a bit.

As it turns out the Flat Earth Society has actually fallenfor the Creationism-level AGW theory:

"As it turns out, there is a real Flat Earth Society and its president thinks that anthropogenic climate change is real. In an email to Salon, president Daniel Shenton said that while he “can’t speak for the Society as a whole regarding climate change,” he personally thinks the evidence suggests fossil fuel usage is contributing to global warming."

Really, if it's such a poor scientific theory that the Flat Earthers agree with you......then maybe there's not quite the "consensus" you think there is....

I may have to get one of those.....

I can easily see them being disallowed for hunting though....
