If they're just going to screw it up why have a science advisor at all?

Exactly. Most of the real science they show is wrong. It might be 90% right, but that 10% wrong trumps the bits that are right. It must be agonizing to see them get so close, and then fail. And then people blame the advisor.

The majority of drivers ARE above average. It's a statistical fact.

I made nitrogen triiodide in my chemistry class. Tried it at home but it didn't work. Turned out it just hadn't dried properly, but it was fully dry by 3:00 AM and made one hell of a loud bang. Thankfully I had put it outside.

I made a device in my electronics class in high school that would periodically emit a very high pitch squeal for about five seconds. High frequencies are very difficult to locate so you could hide it almost anywhere in a room and it would drive people nuts.

Fixing a thermopile is very very very easy.

That would be the easy part. If they use their email address for anything presumably it's to receive and send email so they CAN'T keep it a secret.

And what property of yours is missing? I'm thinking it's your sanity.

Big deal. You're not on the hook for the fraudulent charges. You just have to check your bill and maybe your CC issuer will give you another card.

I called the local call-before-you-dig number because I was having foundation work done and you have to have an underground lines located before you can so much as plant bedding plants around here. A lady showed up and followed procedure for the gas and electrical lines then she pulled out her water witching wands to locate the rest of the stuff. Crazy. I called and left a complaint but they never got back to me. One day she's going to have some equipment malfunction and she's going to use her wands to locate an electrical line and it'll kill someone.

Suzuki is a tree hugging hippie. He jumped the shark a LONG time ago.

Didn't say it was perfect, but it's an idea worth implementing.

They should crowdsource this. Simply mark new apps as being in a probationary period and give downloaders the option of tagging the app as misleading, malware, abuse of permissions, etc. It would greatly help their human staff find the bad apples quickly. Of course the same goes for Google and Apple.

I'm in Canada and it worked fine for me, even with the IE 8 I have access to at work.

Didn't know National Geographic had a time machine.
