Because people lie?
Well I stand corrected on the "no one except you" bit. Apparently more than one anonymous coward also doesn't know that tri means three. Or maybe that graph mean character. Or maybe that ?: is only two characters...
?: is not a trigraph, which should be obvious since it doesn't have three characters in it.
Probably why no one except you seems to think anyone claimed it was.
And this human efforts at restoring them are "natural phenomenon". What was your point again?
would be a reasonably critical part of the e-coli staying alive...
Because getting flooded every few years is an even bigger hassle? Because they live near to the good crop land which they also have to go to and from every day? Because having all the people and their animals near is makes the water not clean? Because real estate is more expensive near the water?
I have no idea. But I'm sure there's a reason...
Right, and do you think America has control of Iran? Or are you arguing against your own point?
The goal of prohibition was to reduce domestic violence.
It did, it reduced it to almost 0%. It was repealed to make up for the loss in taxes from the great depression, not because it didn't accomplish it's goals.
AS a side benefit, suicides were cut in half. This is all trivial too look up.
You are right it is trivial to look up. Suicide rates for the time of prohibition, 1920 - 1933:
1920: 10.2
1921: 12.4
1922: 11.7
1923: 11.5
1924: 11.9
1925: 12.0
1926: 12.6
1927: 13.2
1928: 13.5
1929: 13.9
1930: 15.6
1931: 16.8
1932: 17.4
1933: 15.9
So I guess before prohibition you are claiming suicide rates were in the 20 - 35 range, so let's look at a few years of them:
1919: 11.5
1918: 12.3
1917: 13.0
1916: 13.7
1915: 16.2
1914: 16.1
1913: 15.4
1912: 15.6
1911: 16.0
1910: 15.3
Mmmm, nothing like double what it was in the time of prohibition. So you lied. About something you even stated was trivial to look up.
In fact prohibition seems to coincide with an end of a dramatic trend down in suicide rates replacing it with an upward trend.
My source is the "Sixteenth Census of the United States: 1940. Vital statistics rates in the United States, 1900-1940" from 1943. Relevant table runs from page 210 through to 242.
Given you clearly just made stuff up about the thing you said as "trivial too look up" why would anyone bother even reading any of your other claims?
Where should all slashdot posts be sent so that you can check them for words you happen not to know so they can be replaced with words you do happen to know?
Astronomy graduates don't always make the best telescope lens grinders.
Microbiology graduates don't always make the best microscope builders.
None, since they did everything they could to lose the OJ trial to avoid them.
Sure, media buzz meant people blamed their errors on that. However, that doesn't mean there wasn't also a problem. That Toyota lost that particular court case seems a reasonable indication there was in fact a problem.
Some cases were due to people pressing the wrong pedals. But some were also due to a the software screwing up - http://www.sddt.com/Commentary...
