Exactly the only sensible way to fight insects from eating the crops is to, set out insects that eat those insects, .. instead of working with pesticides, they should seriously think about breathing their natural enemies instead. And that doesn't require a lot of time to research, well the how to breath those insects maybe. Yet if the species evolves so might the predator that eats those. The only problem with that is probably that they can't patent it !

Just think about what companies do now with social networks, .. how they use that information, .. this shit is haunting peoples lives. About what they do in there free time, .. and I'm referring to the legal things they do. Those who pretend to be saints, are probably those have to hide the most. It's like when someone farts in a room usually the first one to speak is the one who let it fly. So those that say I don't care I've got nothing to hide probably got the most shit going on.

Privacy is being able to say something without worrying that someone will abuse that information, .. there is no freedom without privacy. If you have to think every second of the time how people will interpret whatever you are doing or saying, then you are in prison. It is not about what you've got to hide it's about being able to do or say something without people labeling you.

what about privacy? I mean a user is supposed to know what is being posted, .. no?

The problem is not the technology the problem always has been who will dominate the market, .. if authors wouldn't have been so busy with protecting their asses all the time and same for publishers, .. we might of had those books on laptops/tablets and so forth a long time ago. They really should consider an open system where everyone can publish their crap.

my thoughts exactly, .. instead of occupying them selfs with such ridicules, things they should be focusing on how to help real people, now you know where your money goes when you buy those stickers !! To ridicules research and retarded discussions. Rather then spending money, on helping people they investigate how games effect people. As if a gamer is really going to travel to Africa or where ever to kill people. Money well spend I'd say, .. it's almost winter and there going to need blankets for the homeless, and they don't have enough funds as it is to help those people, yet they have money to do crap research.

This research, is just ridicules, .. there aren't enough cases and the time frame isn't big enough to come to this conclusion. And there are to many variables, .. it's like how people blame smoking for everything, .. suddenly smokers are black sheep, .. governments call for quiting smoking merely because they think it will cut down cancer cases and this will be better for their health care budget, same goes for fast food, I'm not claiming smoking is healthy, .. but a lot of work/jobs are bad for your health too and yet governments want to make you work longer :p Or like using your phone in the car, .. it's not using the phone which is dangerous, but having the conversation which distracts you, .. or dialing the number, .. but so would having a conversation with the person sitting next to you or eating snack, drinking water on a hot day, yet there's no banning people from eating or talking to someone in the car. Governments are trying to find money, so where likely to see more of these idiotic science claims.

This to be expected, .. the higher the live expectancy, the worse the gene pool becomes, .. in 3rd world countries people with bad genes are probably not surviving, .. due to missing medical treatment, .. so countries where live expectancy are higher, people do tend to get kids at an older age, and a lot of people with bad genes survive and are allowed to reproduce, .. I'm not saying there should be bans I'm just suggesting this is obvious, .. and everyone can come to this conclusion. And this got nothing to do with bad habits. like alcohol, smoking, or whatever.
