I was talking production CO2 from an EV car versus production CO2 from a traditional car. The former is much more difficult to manufacture, and releases significantly more CO2 in the process. I believe small traditional cars like the Honda Civic are by far the most responsible cars to purchase if you truly care about CO2.

I was under the impression that the increased CO2 needs for manufacturing Leafs and Volts more than offset the small reduction in exhaust. Perhaps I'm wrong.

I'd guess at least part of the switch is from couples having families. If you're a single (or married) 20-something with a hot job making good bank, that fancy electric car is a huge status symbol. But five years later with a kid or two, and the thing is simply impractical.

I guess we've done enough to ward off all those hurricanes and droughts and tornadoes and dogs and cats living together. No need for a carbon tax! Congrats, humanity!!

So you think we need to get rid of 6 out of every 7 people. Will you be first in line?

That's not the impression SpzToid's post gave. He speculated explicitly that Hillary was influenced by Bush 43's bad actions. Thus one would conclude she is excused for such mistakes.

Calling out hypocrites is about as productive and difficult a task as shooting fish in a barrel.

So basically any person off the street can walk into your mom's nursing home and wander the hallways? You don't consider that a security risk? The potential for identity theft via medical records is staggering.

So the defense now is "Bush did bad things, too?"

"Hey - Nixon engaged in obstruction of justice, too! We have precedent!"

Let's see how that one goes over.

After some quick digging, this appears to be the law broken:

Basically, she was required by law to archive her communications on federal servers. She did not.

Also of note, according to TSG she forwarded classified intelligence Emails to Sidney Blumenthal, who was not a federal employee.

Which theory is that, exactly? The theory in material science that there's something to make the walls from that'd survive the pressure and heat of the Earth's core?

...the Dualshock 4 is hands-down the best game controller I've ever used. The thing is just ridiculously comfortable.

I see the main problem being that these companies will be forced to disclose breaches while they still be in the midst of investigating and fixing them. I can see it taking more than 30 days to discover the breadth of a breach.

McD's will of course SAY that the moves are for better customer experience and not a reaction to increased labor costs.

But that doesn't mean the labor costs played no factor.

I'm sure their bean counters did exhaustive analysis of the cost/benefit of the change, where one of the big variables was labor cost. They'd have been irresponsible not to. It's obvious both customer experience and labor costs contribute here.

Editorializing "See, minimum wage isn't a factor! Look! Look!" clearly demonstrates a bias in the article.

Internet?
