I think you need to remember that the Earth is also round, not flat, so the panels will be in incredibly cold darkness half the time. Just like the moon.
I think you need to remember that the Earth has an axial tilt of 23.4 degrees, so the geostationary orbit is out of Earth's shadow 24 hours a day (save for dozens of hours of eclipses every year).
By the power vested in me by the Holy Helix, I hereby revoke your pedant card. M and above are capitalized and everything else is in lower case.

You have the right to be wooshed. Anything joke can and will be missed by you. You have the right to consult Google, and to have Google explain the joke to you. If you cannot Google, the joke will be explained to you by a snarky slashdotter.

It's actually closer to 4%.
If you get round trip from A to C, then the return must be from C.
not on all airlines.
Yes on all airlines, because a round trip is defined as A -> B -> A.
What you're talking about is an open-jaw, i.e. A -> B; C -> A.
Antarctica.
Whose bright idea was that anyways, breeding a bunch of linux moscots and shipping them over there?
Each passenger must have a valid ticket.
The same ticket must be used for Entry and Exit.
The moment you exchange your ticket with someone else you are no longer in possession of a valid ticket and thus broke the law, specifically Section 640 (c) (1) and (2) of the California Penal Code:
(1) Evasion of the payment of a fare of the system. For purposes of this section, fare evasion includes entering an enclosed area of a public transit facility beyond posted signs prohibiting entrance without obtaining valid fare, in addition to entering a transit vehicle without valid fare.
(2) Misuse of a transfer, pass, ticket, or token with the intent to evade the payment of a fare.
Just curious, have you ever taken public transit? Because every single public transit system that I've used had some variation of "fare is non-transferable" printed on the back of the ticket. Government bureaucrats might not be efficient but they're not stupid, you know.
"Why would you in a city that gets one snow event every three years? Why would you buy 500 snowplows and salt trucks and have them sit around for 1,000 days, waiting for the next event?"
I shall become rich and famous by inventing a novel type of financial transaction whereby one makes a payment in exchange for the temporary use of goods or property. I shall name it... "Compensated borrowing". Nobel Prize in Economics, here I come!
And the act of them not giving you their address doesn't encroach on your free speech.
No one claimed otherwise. Not sure why you would assume otherwise.
Give me your address, because the First Amendment gives me the right to spray-paint "A fucking moron lives here" on your house.

Why have waste time coding a customized solution when a global solution already exists?
Try taking off the aluminium foil hat once in a while, it's blocking the woosh sound from over your head.

"Bad news, Sir. Looks like we need to throw the third candidate out."
"Why? He looked the most promising."
"I dug around his Internet postings, and I found something disturbing. He's... he's... a Canon user!"
"*gasp* He got some nerve, apply to for a job at Nikon while owning Canons. Feed him to the hounds immediately."
We need more Rob Fords who just don't give a shit and aren't slaves to the petty morality of American culture.
Well, duh. He's just a slave to the petty morality of Canadian culture.
This place just isn't big enough for all of us. We've got to find a way off this planet.
