"Death finds a way" - Dr. Ian Maclom
No, wait, he said "Life".. meh, same difference in the end.

He might not have trolling, just relating how he stopped donating to the American red cross when they made those requirements. Frankly though, it's just about impossible, realistically, to "live off the grid' anymore, not without being a hermit in a hidden cabin in the mountains in the wilderness, so, he'd have to not do much of anything then.
Anyway, why so quick to label as an, "American troll"? --sounds like an axe to grind there.

Me-fist-opheles.

Actually, this is how a vampire show started.. with the synthetic product TruBlood.

You're right. I followed the relevant links in that article (and several were pointless primers) and none of them including mlab pointed to the study claimed, not even indirectly. I can't find it either. I have no love whatsoever for Verizon or Comcast, but it makes you wonder.

It will be sad day indeed to me when John WIlliams goes. IMO, he's the greatest popular composer of the last 50 years. The guy is a living legend.

Now that's just cruel.

Don't worry, tree Neo will enter the growth Matrix and break the cycle.

How is the parent trash talking, he's taking a defensive position.
We've recycled for years, and had one bin for cans and bottles, another for paper and cardboard. Wasn't a big deal to me. Last year though, they gave us a new, larger bin and told us they're not sorting anymore, it all goes in the one. That wasn't our decision, that was the recyclers'.

LOL that is the post of the week right there.

How offensive, you're just being a... a homeophobe!


:-D (no I'm not being serious)

A lot of people seem to be deluded into believing it just means "all natural". Not sure why, unless some of it is marketed that way as a distraction.

Not really.. gun ownership is a constitutional right. Hacking is not.

Agreed. If that alone isn't enough to provide a sense of stress, regardless of personal danger or lack thereof, then there's something not right.

That's what I was going to say. Almost nothing occurs "overnight", really, there's usually a lot of unpublicized effort in the years preceding it. Trucking companies will still require drivers in the trucks as backups, if nothing else. And there are still a lot of crappy roads out there that aren't auto-driving friendly.

I wouldn't be remotely shocked if the businesses that didn't receive payments still find it reasonable to ascribe late penalties to their customers and say "Hey, it wasn't our fault your payments were late".
