"HONEYPOT!"

We've known this for a very long time. Longer than I've been here even.

Or... I could say,

"Even if it is all dust the discovery is nothing -- To sneeze at."

Even if it is all dust, the discovery is "nothing to sneeze at"!

Creators are responsible for their projects. When you back a project, you’re trusting the creator to do a good job, so if you don’t know them personally or by reputation, do a little research first. Kickstarter doesn’t evaluate a project’s claims, resolve disputes, or offer refunds — backers decide what’s worth funding and what’s not.

Some projects won’t go as planned. Even with a creator’s best efforts, a project may not work out the way everyone hopes. Kickstarter creators have a remarkable track record, but nothing’s guaranteed. Keep this in mind when you back a project.

An investment is a risk-based transaction. Donating to Kickstarter technically qualifies, but what do you get in exchange for your money? Not an ownership stake, which is what a stock offers. Not a 'financial product', which has largely always been against Kickstarters terms and conditions.

You get a 'Backers Pledge'. And I have yet to see any legal case that would demonstrate that is anything other than charity. Any scammer worth their salt should be able to mount a legal 'reasonable effort' defense that would stand up on court.

Yes, that's why they had local events in other cities.

But I think it's kind of dumb to think that in a city with tens or hundreds of thousands of cars idling daily in traffic for the past 70 years, that 500 busses making a single trip is going to have a more negative impact than if leaders don't hear some kind of voice for change.

I annoyed my kids when they were younger - pointing out the only Pokemon with a power I admired was Snorlax.

Buried lede?

Man jumps White House fence, enters building DRESSED AS PIKACHU!

Anyone who could afford a Karma and wanted electric would have already bought a Tesla S or Roadster.

The only way they'll sell some is to greatly upgrade the interior to Tesla Model S-type screen and software.

If it's over 100 you really should see a doctor, period. There's almost certainly something wrong other than just deconditioning.

Herding Cats - Hurd and Catz. LULZ.

That's DOCTOR Who, to you, Sir!
 

Logic is a binary function. Something is in a logical set - or it is not. Being illogical is not a synonym for being mistaken. Degrees of precision are irrelevant for set inclusion. Fuzzy logic is not logic.

BTW: It is illogical to conclude that a Tomato in NOT a vegetable, simply because it belongs to a taxonomical subclass, "fruit". It as if I were to say your testicle is not animal.

"Makes you wonder what, exactly?"

That this is a widespread social problem and not something restricted to just the nerdy professions. Project much?

Insightful, my ass.
