I think Hitler tried something like that already.

Wow! You just like to make stuff up. Pure hyperbole, not a fact in sight.

So maybe greedy almond growers are the real problem. I can't imagine anything more stressful than doing this.

"..80 percent of the world's almonds come from California's central valley, an 800,000 acre area of almond orchards that are 100 percent dependent on bees pollinating the trees. Surprisingly, almonds are the number one agricultural product in California.

Once a year, in late winter, 1.5 million bee hives from around the country are delivered to these orchards where the bees' pollination efforts take place over the course of just a few days. It's the largest mass-pollination effort in the world."

Do you check for @aol.com after race, gender, sexual orientation, age, height, weight or before?

I'm proud to say I don't even know what UID you social weenies are bragging about and I have lots of friends and almost all of them are human.

With pull quotes like this: "You know we have good health benefits, and we're government, right? So we have a huge scope of insurance to choose from," he says.

You just know they, NPR, are full of it. If I had to guess, the NSA is flooded with qualified candidates.

You're basically correct except for the facts. Werner did not start his career as a Nazi, he joined later, and he did not work on weapons that killed many (not countless, they did count) Brits until much later. I know that Nazi Germany lost and thus history is skewed to favor the winner's view point but after 70+ years maybe the truth will be acceptable. Perhaps this would be more correct and convey the same effect: Wernher von Braun's early career as a Nazi who helped develop the Retribution Weapon 2, aka V-2 rocket, (responsible for the deaths of 9 thousand Brits) did not prevent him from becoming an American hero.

The Spartans are too polarizing, so with a simple play on words they can use the more PC Spartacus. IE made you a slave to Windows but Spartacus frees you, or some such BS.

So you post a link to a pseudo legit article and then add a moronic commit about mythical "southerners" that certainly isn't mentioned in your linked article. You are a bigot!

Let's not give her another 15 minutes...

Bullshit, very few governments run up huge deficits! That's the whole point of these money grabs. They CAN"T trivially borrow money (like the Federal government) so they do all kinds of horrible things to raise revenue.

The last time I heard of a gun with an obfuscated serial number it involved a cop "throw down". Really, it's pretty rare when somebody buys a gun legally and then removes the serial number before committing a crime. It's so much easier to just buy a stolen gun.

The formula is fact, it's part to math/reality not the ancient who's best remembered for it.

I'm glad to see that Mr. Mann did not use the pejorative term "denier" even though the /. summary does.

Maybe before they do the ethics thing they might want to get some major agreement on just what is the ideal temperature. At least when there is nobody/everybody at the helm it's hard to get too mad, but just start targeting the climate with techno arrogance and you'll have billions bitching that you screwed them and killed their babies and you should die a horrible death. Unfortunately, they might be right some of the time even if your tech is proper and correct.
