Where did anybody generalize to make any sort of claim that many or most panhandlers are wealthy?

People who lived in mud huts or worse were responsible for most of the megafauna extinctions, not technology. Humans who can't see or don't consider the consequences of their actions are destructive with or without advanced tech.

If most domain owners were technical people, godaddy wouldn't exist.

Dormant doesn't have to mean something that will awake, but sure there's probably another word that's less open to misinterpretation. The moon isn't exactly an inert rock on the inside though, it still has magma: http://www.universetoday.com/9...

Odd that anyone hasn't heard since it's far from news, but "moon volcanoes" is easily googled for thousands of reference to extinct volcanoes known to be active until at least a billion years ago.

If you actually want to reduce emissions, it'd be many times more effective to use that money to give everyone free bus passes. And that way you'd actually be helping the poor instead of the wealthy!

We don't have any rovers on Mars equipped to test for life.

In 1992 my 386 DX came with DOS 5.1, not Windows. I didn't have Windows until 1995. Probably most people didn't, just enthusiasts and wealthier people.

You wanna know a really cool feature of credit cards? If you get mugged after you leave the store, you don't lose any of your money when you cancel the card and dispute any transactions.

If you call the level 1 multiverse from the article the universe, which seems reasonable if's all subject to the same physical laws and it's theoretically possible for the universes to expand into each other, the belief appears to be that it's infinite because the physics suggests no reason big bangs wouldn't happen in infinite places.

Since no one people had knowledge of the extent and geography of north and south america or their relation to the other continents before, it wasn't really called anything else.

He's senator for a state that elected a professional wrestler as governor. After Jesse Ventura, it's easy to taken Franken seriously.
