Guess what? For those of you complaining about the summary, it's a direct quote from the first few lines of the story they're linking to. The anonymous poster is the person who wrote the article being quoted.

I don't totally block the ads, I block their ability to animate past the first frame unless I click on them. That way, they can still advertise, they just can't make it obnoxious.

Maybe the cosmonaut was supposed to be a troll within a troll, but it's supposed to be confidant.(sp?)

If we used batteries to store excess coal plant electricity, wouldn't that cut down on overall usage of coal?

I'm asking the forum, it's simply something I'm throwing out there.

Google the company uses a ton of electricity for it's servers, but they simply chose to put their biggest server farm near a dam in Dallas so that they could benefit from the renewable energy. Not every company will do that.

Plus, the government could simply offer exceptions to companies that don't have an available alternative.

The only reason China has the largest emissions is because they have a ton of people that want the benefits of this modern age. If you compare carbon emissions to population, I believe(not sure if it's still true) that we in the US are the worst CO2 emitters. Also, if I'm not mistaken, China has put a ton of money into alternative energy research.

So...Despite the fact that China's the leading emitter, they're also the #1 leader in trying to solve the problem.

You can't be serious. The protesters didn't want experiments done on fetuses, and the scientists stopped doing experiments of fetuses. No thunder was stolen, the protesters simply got what they wanted.

Some Kindles give Internet acess for free. The experience sounds ultra-shitty to me, but it is offered. And it's a cellular connection, so you could technically be homeless and use it, though recharging might be a problem.

I like online games where there's PvP and more than one character in your arsenal. It's even better when you have a username like Van der Waal, because then your forces are, logically, Van der Waal's forces.

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all night, or until the drinks run out.

Um, this is marked Troll, but I think Funny(in an ironic sense) would be more appropriate. And don't mod me, mod the Parent.

It it annoying when I use "words" like gotta or wanna or *gasp choke* watchathink?

Okay, remove security and put in Fantasy with the leather and I think this particular Anonymous Coward has a vacation to plan.

Well, for one thing, I don't think wizards get much benefit from sharp objects. They're usually on the outskirts casting healing spells and whatnot, and probably are EXPECTED to run if someone burly comes nearby. You gotta be up close or use projectiles(like rangers) to benefit from sharpness, unless you're dropping stalactites on people.

What if we call it a barrier beyond which people read the story and say to themselves,"That's so frickin cool?"

Symbolic barriers are just as real as physical barriers.

Not to be offensive, but do you have autism or OCD? Because this conversation has a rather pedantic topic.
