No, A failure of a lander means a failure of a lander. But it can be a success for both the flight test and the mission. I mean they probably learn a lot from this, but the lander still exploded.
Even murderers know that republicans are crazy!
Yes, dinosaurs have never existed and any fossils is just to test our faith.
DrXym meant dragons and inucorns. Dragons did exist, the bible says so, But there is no bones or fossils after them.

You have to compare the manufacturing, packaging and shipping of the new LCD/LED with moving an old CRT nowhere.

Why would anyone want to ethanol up two perfectly good cups of water?
1. There is a lot more of Hydrogen and Oxygen than Neon.
2. Water have a feezing point of 273.15 K, while neon is 24.56 K(Under standard pressure, but it doesn't change much). This means that water can form a solid closer to the sun, and crash into things like Earth instead of just get blown away by solarwind.
I think you are right about the mill. But I was actually thinking about the rotary hand quern, but that still only date back to something like 500 BC.

The only good thing you can do with old horses is burgers and sausages, so why not do that? Ok, you can also use the hides/leather, hair(for paintbrushes and bows for string instruments) and I think there is some way to make glue out of them. But my point is that it's a waste of meat not to slaughter horses (even if it just end up as dog food).
and no, this is not a slippery slope towards soylent green.
One way to make your old car run better is to look up the price of a new model.
