I think the obvious solution for the LEO stuff is to accelerate global warming and expand the atmosphere to increase drag. Sure, it'll bring down the satellites we want to keep up there as well, but who will notice while we're slathered in SPF 10000 hunkered down in our underground bunkers learning to love eating fungi?

Efficiency has nothing to do with it.

The reason you add two spaces is because the additional space aids your eyes in determining individual sentences. Two spaces gives the eyes an additional visual cue, and thus is far easier to parse.

Please explain why you used one space between all sentences in your post.

It's a single run-on sentence with gratuitous punctuation.

The BSA president said, "Few if any industries could withstand the theft of $51 billion worth of their products." It's unclear whether that was a brag about the industry's robustness, or a result of the industry's low cost of goods sold.

I'd say what is clear is the proctological origin of the number.

State Senator Caught Looking At Porn On Senate Floor 574

Everyone knows how boring a debate on a controversial abortion bill can get on the Senate floor. So it's no wonder that Florida State Sen. Mike Bennett took the time to look at a little porn and a video of a dog running out of the water and shaking itself off. From the article: "Ironically, as Bennett is viewing the material, you can hear a Senator Dan Gelber's voice in the background debating a controversial abortion bill. 'I'm against this bill,' said Gelber, 'because it disrespects too many women in the state of Florida.' Bennett defended his actions, telling Sunshine State News it was an email sent to him by a woman 'who happens to be a former court administrator.'"

JSo yes, SCO is still getting representation, but it is inexperienced, fresh-out-of-law-school representation... which explains a lot of what you see in their filings.

Well, it explains a little of what you see in their filings. A lot of the explanation is that reality conflicts with their assertions.
