They tried that for a while in the wake of 9/11, but the bootup time of Windows caused massive delays.

I'm sorry, but thanks to Richard Dawkins, atheism now has people going door to door trying to convert people.
Where? All I get is Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses and Baptists.
Yes they do, but that description does not apply to the Greenpeace blimp anyway. It has both an engine and a propane burner.
What do you mean by "caught off guard?" Are you assuming that if they saw it coming, they'd shoot it down? Or would they maybe pull it over with a police blimp?
The "whole MF Sun" will not be available to you until you build a Dyson sphere. But yeah, I guess that would be an example of really WANTING to...
( Does Germany even have winter? I think Fahrenheit (the guy who invented the temperature scale) was German and he seemed to think that 0F was as cold as you could get, so I guess they don't have a real winter there.)
There are several folkloric versions of how he set the zero, but he didn't do it by watching a thermometer...google "frigorific mixture".
You can certainly find subzero temps in Europe if you go high enough, but Fahrenheit mostly lived and worked in the Low Countries.
Accelerating energy -- what a concept.
In my lifetime I've known about ten Mensans personally, and at least five of them could really have used it.
...are going to be really, really bad.
Not killing innovation, requiring it. If you want to deliver packages by air to people's doorsteps, you're just going to have to invent an anti-gravity device that will do it without killing their children and dogs.
I guess my drone hunting license is useless....
It always was: the few hundred voters who live in Deer Trail, a Colorado truckstop town, rejected the measure to authorize them. If you're one of the tourists who were conned into buying one at the truckstop anyway, you should continue on up to Wyoming where they'll be glad to sell you a stuffed jackalope head.
...and I'll bet the filthy infidel doesn't believe we're gonna get flying cars, either.
Gimme a break. That "package delivery" shtik was a Christmas-shopping publicity stunt. If you really believed it was going to happen, you'd be investing in pediatric and veterinary hospitals.
Ummm, you're aware you're talking about a 27MHz SSB-AM system interfering with a 2.4 GHz spread-spectrum PCM system, right?
That vibration you feel is your lawyer trembling with anticipation of a paycheck.
