Eventually I grew tired of keeping them on the phone (I was at the office), so I said, "Oh, maybe the problem is that I'm on Linux and you're a lying criminal sack of shit." This amused my coworkers.
Can we sue Mindspring next?
(Yes, I know. But it's funnier this way)
But yeah, there's really just no room in the city itself for big sprawling power plants. Or anything really. It's two islands and part of a third, so it's as big as it can possibly be.
Fortunately, it's a big-ass hunk of granite, so it's sturdy enough to support vertical growth. I don't think vertical NPP's would work, but there is an incredible amount of wind up there.
And being Capitol of the World has to count for something too.
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean that millions upon millions don't love it. Greatest damn city in the whole damn world.
The presence of a Department of Education does not mean the Federal Government runs the education system. Public Health, Safety (police), and Education are the sovereign domain of the States.
The Federal government can only attach conditions to grant money offered to the States. What those conditions can be are extremely limited, and States are not obligated to take the money. What is being described in the article is well outside the limits for the conditions. Obama is just declaring his support for the efforts of an NGO.
