Comment Re:Problems with the US Temperature Record (Score 1) 1057

Comparing two locations in Hawaii for temperature doesn't give you much. Those two locations are in different climate zones. It can pour rain for a week on one part of Oahu without a drop falling on another. In Hawaii weather is extremely dependent on location. Your assumption that they actually have the same temperature is just plain wrong.

Comment Re:Phone Economics? (Score 4, Insightful) 174

Your behavior just hi-lights the fact that you don't understand the economics. A portion of that monthly service payment to the carrier either goes to pay off the cost of the phone subsidy or directly to the carriers profit line. At the very least get one of the free phones with it to keep as a back-up. If you don't want it then donate it to charity. But I'm sure the AT&T stockholders appreciate your contribution to their dividend checks.

Comment Re:African Americans are overwhelmingly homophobic (Score 1) 1486

Frankly I have to wonder why marriage is a legal institution. It's a religious ceremony! It's obviously not for reproduction, look how many people manage that without marriage and that's the only reason I can see the state getting involved.

A court should just ban marriage on account of its being a state recognized religious event and make everyone get civil unions. Keep there 'traditional' marriages in the churches where they belong.
