I was taught this at a young age. It should actually be taught in schools, considering.

so we're going to file the discussion in a FIFO stack?

I would stop doing business in countries that don't seem to understand the difference between a search engine that indexes the internet and the original site that hosted the material. Screw them.

oxygen production. plankton are the foundation of the ocean ecosystem. i'm a lefty, but this seems like a win win. change will happen. but no more than when we make hydroelectric dams that drastically change the water temperature so all of the indigenous fish die and have to be replaced with colder water species. and these types of changes are justified every day.

Um, a kid shouldn't be able to walk in and see a spent fuel pool. Not cool.

HE IS AN ASTROPHYSICIST. That's a good start. Second, he's not the only, he's only the most celebrated on the Internet. Hence all the "We've got a badass here..." memes.

There are 100 planets within 30 light years of us. That is an achievable goal. We are getting close to figuring out fusion technology. Then we'll have the energy to travel to the stars. A lot of barriers to entry still exist, but if we really want to, we can overcome them.

Lots of places have a north.

we live in a world where the west's material goods are supplied by slave labor, figuratively speaking of course, and many times, those jobs are the best ones around. this says a lot about the countries that we get our material goods from.

until our computer systems are sophisticated enough to *accurately* model the effects on humans, we're going to continue to do animal testing. that's just the reality we live in.
