Any chance to pin that on the content mafia or patent trolls? C'mon, at least ONCE such a story has to hit someone we can uniformly hate and not be controversial.
So long as you don't blame it on Tesla, Bitcoin, or Starts with a Bang, everyone here will cool with it.
FWIW, windmills and skyscrapers kill a lot of birds too.
And automobiles, for that matter.
Why not skip all the expensive equipment and just use birds for fuel?
Apparently they think it's ok to put your fingers in, so long as you pay.
Nuke the server from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
according the some billboard on I-35 the bible says the world will end in 2017
Does it say when we can start looting?
Tunguska, Chelyabinsk, you see the pattern.
The heavens punish always those evil comunists.

I wasn't particularly worried about a 2880pocalypse to begin with.
What chemicals spilled, other than all the radioactive water?

By not studying the narrow strip of land that was affected by the tsunami.
Bah, you're making the radical assumption that scientists have a clue about the things they study.
Yes, if there's a reactor meltdown in your neighborhood you should stay put and ignore the panic mongers. A little radiation never did anything.
No, my life would have been changed (i.e., ended in the cosmic collapse) if I *had* hit him.
The speed of light is a limit on how fast you can accelerate something *in* space, but it's not a limit on how fast space can expand.
In fact you can't even state the rate of expansion of space as a velocity, because the velocity apparent as the speed of recession depends on how far away you're looking.
It has a psychological effect because ignorant economists use limited knowledge about the universe to justify austerity policies. Friedman using TANSTAAFL, for example. Except now Dark Energy violates TANSTAAFL, and it didn't hold in General Relativity anyway. So we suffer from an artificially imposed scarcity of money because economists suffer from a lack of knowledge about the universe.
That's not rigorous enough for physics, but I do believe it meets the standards for good economics.
