Use Adblock Edge. By hiding what it was doing, Adblock Plus has killed itself.

By hiding what it was doing when it sneakily adopted Microsoft Bing search, calling it Yahoo search, Mozilla Foundation has done irreparable harm to Firefox. Mozilla Foundation seems to be driving users to the Pale Moon 64-bit version of Firefox with Adblock Latitude.

It shouldn't even indicate that. Consensus has zero to do with truth or even confirmation of theory, scientifically speaking. The majority saying that the moon is made of green cheese does not mean that the moon is actually made of green cheese.

We love this one, too, although it's got some pro-communist roots we don't personally agree with.

Awesome links. One thing I saw on that NPR article that I didn't know was that Peter, Paul, and Mary's version of Blowin in the Wind became the fastest-selling single in Warner Brothers' history.

Yes, that's another one we play for them, with a wonderful message. Thanks for posting it.

Nye may be a "science guy" but he's a popularizer, not a real scientist. Just an actor.

There's a reason I play this song to my kids a lot:

"This guy's career is totally a product of having the "right" position."

Which fits, because so do all his opponents. Scientific "consensus" is an indicator that something has gone horribly wrong with the scientific process.

" if proper peer review is undertaken"

The problem comes in when fads appear among the peers.

Oh, and back on topic and more to the point:
7. If gas tank 20% full and battery 20% full, hibernate mode on computer if accidentally left on and wheels are not moving. Right now if you tried to use a Gen2 prius as a backup house generator, you run the risk of bricking the system, unable to boot computer, unable to add more gas, must drag onto a flatbed and tow to Toyota to use their fancy charging system to bring the car back to life.

I guess I'd just make some different programming choices- and eventually really want to replace the computer in my Prius with one that has some added features. These features may already be available on newer models, mine is a 2006 Gen2.

Features I'd like to see:
1. The only reason to run the gas engine under 25 miles an hour should be for recharging and generating, period. EV mode only at low speed.
2. An expert mode should be available wherein "creep ahead at stop" is disabled
3. Cruise control should also be able to be set by a numeric keypad, and should be able to handle values lower than 23.
4. Sport mode should be available that disengages the traction control and enables all three motors for acceleration (you can get the second half of this in a gen2 by angrily stomping on the accelerator, it takes a second to engage, but you suddenly go from 34 HP to 174 HP as the second electric and the gas motor kick in).
5. Finer resolution than 5 minutes on the average MPG consumption graph.
6. Ability to download trip data onto an SD card.
