The more you like a show, the more you should hope no one decides to revive it.

True, and it looks like we'll never have another Star Wars movie.
Probably you whooshed me, but Disney bought rights in 2012 and has the first of a sequel trilogy in production and scheduled for release next year.
(Then we'll probably get presequels...)
So... what 2000s
If the currrent trend continues, I'd say "all of them".
I believe that there is some wiggle room, looking at the electric universe theory.
Actually, Electro-Temporal Unification Theory shows that "electric universe" and "timecube cosmology" make the same predictions at the critical energy density point in 8-space, and is in good accord with all available evidence.
Unfortunately the paper was publised by a certain Jack N. Withya, so most cosmologists haven't bothered to read it.
On weekends?
Science Mag is a fucking tabloid rag.
With pictures?
Praise our overendowed saviors for keeping us from going extinct before we started, but where were they when the lizard men took over, hmmm?
NO don't mod up.
AC is ignorant of science, the techniques used and is simple batting around the stupid 'It's only a model' fallacy.
There are only so many arguments people can make when they don't like what scientists discover about the universe.
Only the size of Connecticut? So, nothing to worry about?
I dunno... How many Manhattans is that?
Everything is bigger in Texas.
Except penises.

This has been going on for a long time. It's due to drainage of basically the Great Plains out into the Gulf. Lots of fixed nitrogen from fertilizers in that these days. That nitrogen stimulates a variety of organisms that also use oxygen. Which there really isn't all that much of in water.
The only way you are going to stop it is to find a different method of raising food for the world. Hint: current organic methods doesn't do it - too labor intensive and yields suffer.
Or you could have less people.
Don't worry, in ~20 years the aquifer will run dry and the entire Great Plains will become the new Dust Bowl. Problem solved.
(Except for finding something to eat. Maybe there will be enough shrimp for breakfast).
From a European perspective it does not look like most Americans can see beyond Right and MAOR RIGHT. Any maybe FUCKING COMMIE BASTARD.
No, these days commies make all the stuff your favorite corporation sells you for a ridiculous profit margin. So s/COMMIE/SOCIALIST/ and pretend everything is as it aught to be.
Einstein had trouble with basic math as a child. His teachers thought he was an idiot. You have to wonder how many "smartest" never happened because they got beat up on the schoolyard and gave up on their dreams.
I thought getting beat up on the schoolyard is what makes them pursue their dreams.
What's 'national security'? I mean, is there a rigorous definition of it?
When you listen to public officials talk, they never talk about defending our lives or our freedoms, but always about defending our "national interests".
And of course, that means whatever policymakers and their pwners want it to mean. If they think bombing some peasants halfway around the world will help keep toilet paper affordable, it's a national security issue.
