If we can get Blackboard, Inc. to adopt it, we could have Rusty Rails on a Blackboard. We'd be just one letter away from perfection.

Of course not all bugs will be labelled correctly,
Don't worry. Somebody is keeping track of that on 3 by 5 index cards in a shoe-box.
I'm not going on a fishing expedition for new music. That's probably part of being middle-aged and having priorities. It's also not my job to wade through all the crap and get to it. I qualified "died" with "virtually" because I still get exposed to interesting things through musician friends (Jazz) and community radio, where "the last DJ" is still allowed to "play what he wants to play".
Music virtually died in the late 90s, as far as I'm concerned. I was in my 30s. Nirvana is a lonely signpost on a desolate two-lane highway, leading into a rap desert.
Honest question, I really don't know. Are we still trucking hives all around the country? IMHO that should have been one of the first things to stop when this crisis started. It seems like the opportunity for pathogens to spread multiplies when you truck colonies 500 miles.
I can see this being a vicious circle: Not enough local bees. Truck some in. Trucked-in bees whack local population. Hey, things are worse. Now let's truck in MORE bees...
Are hipsters using it to be ironic yet?
I'm seeing a lot of ignorant comments about the phrase "arsenal of democracy". Please educate yourselves. This phrase comes out of the WW2 era in which these birds flew. Manufacturing weapons was a huge part of the US contribution because we could do it without having to worry about Axis bombers hitting our plants. The AoD helped kill the Axis. Please try to separate it from the modern issues. This is history we're talking about.
Let me be the first to say that the mayor of Granby is an idiot.
I think you missed that opportunity. Get in line and take a number.
Do I REALLY want to run a dosbox in my browser?
Just type WIN at the command prompt and hit enter, LOL.
It's kind of like winning a cockfight though. The whole contest exists only because the surrounding environment is corrupt and/or seedy.
Feet are based on SI units. One foot=12*2.54 cm which works out to 0.3048 meters.
Yes, it was probably a rhetorical question; but a lot of people don't realize that some customary units have been standardized this way.
If corporations are people, and the government can sue a suitcase full of cash, then recognizing chimps is really not that big a deal.
Really. The way our legal system behaves, I'm surprised Bonzo didn't get involved earlier. Now go to bed, Bonzo. Good-night...
When I read the headline, my first thought was that it was some new programming paradigm. Horrific visions of pundits at the EPcon briefly formed and then vaporized as I realized the phrase had a different meaning.
He has been charged with a felony. They could keep him in jail. Based on that, I'd say that banishment is quite legal. They're saying "everywhere except DC until your trial" vs. "noplace but this cell until your trial".
It doesn't become an issue unless they deny him the right to a speedy trial.
