How much is this in bushels per acre?

50g? Ridiculous. Start with 1/10th of that.

Both Coca-Cola and Pepsi do make real cane sugar drinks. You just need to know where and when to look for them.

Not sure about causation, but correlation is here.

1 km altitude? Sure, that will work. Just need to tell the engineers that whoever crashes the satellite into a mountain, pays for it out of his own pocket.

Ice is white... when not covered by dust.

Ein Desktop, ein Distro, ein Operatingsystem!

Now go program me a nuclear reactor control system with this.
