That bit is why it'll be a wild success with foodie hipsters. Expensive == special
That's going to be a tough one. This is clearly a GMO. Maybe they can override that if they put "Ethically Sourced" & "Cruelty Free" on the package.
The "Little Ice Age" was up to 500 years give or take - with some warmer years. But we don't really know what the future will hold - will we get a new "little ice age", a few cold winters/summers or will we get a new full-blown ice age?
The last option is the most worrying.
Maybe Global Warming/Climate Change will even it out?
If you want to take a train an extra 200 miles, you need to lay track AND fuel it. With the plane you only need the fuel..
Unless you want to land? Or, at least, land intact, then take off again after landing?
Yeah, but isn't a runway a fraction of the cost of a 200 mile railroad track?
Maybe you're OK with taking in peoples' wash and sewing for low pay, no benefits or sick days...
Why are you against voluntary exchange? If I want a person to drive me from point A to point B at a particular time, and we agree on the amount of compensation, what business is that of yours?
So you think it is far more appropriate for them to have to develop a nonstandard plug rather than trust in the honesty and decency of the citizens of the UK?
Actually, I think a better policy would be "Need to charge your phone while you're on the train? Use our outlets!" It would be a good PR move for them and help build goodwill.
We've had plenty of significant events happen in the past couple decades. One and only one - 9/11 - changed how the government does anything.
Yeah, and it only changed how the government did anything by making things worse. Now we're subjected to illegal searches, detainment, etc. by an incompetent bureaucracy that has stopped exactly 0 terrorist plots and misses over 95% of banned items in its screenings. Hopefully these aren't the kinds of changes you'd like to see with the oil industry as well.
I'm impressed that you're an expert on the things I know about. I know for instance, homeopathy is snake oil, Bruce Jenner is still a man even if he wants to get breast implants and dresses himself as a woman, and Rachel Dolezal is white, even if she wants to say she's black.
I'd like to mention as an addendum that as far as Jenner and Dolezal are concerned, I don't really care. I think people should be free to live their lives they way they want so long as they're not harming anyone else, even if I don't necessarily agree with what they're doing.
You're an armchair 'expert' who doesn't actually know anything about topics you're discussing, but you think your point of view is valid regardless.

It's depressing that humanity's breadth of knowledge has increased to an unprecedented level, yet instead of educating themselves about the world they live in people prefer to just dig deeper holes to stick their heads in.
What's more depressing is all the SJWs that are so busy being offended by everything that they have to make everything awful for everyone else. Maybe it's the "enlightened" people like you who are part of the problem.
Nobody gets any data. Nobody - no car manufacturer, no Apple/Google, no insurance companies, no NSA/FBI. I, the consumer, don't need it or want it. Why does a car have to collect any data in the first place?
They collect the data for quantitative analysis, in case you get in an accident. It allows them to figure out if the driver was at fault, or if there was a defect in the vehicle. They are also able to provide it to law enforcement in case it's needed for an accident investigation, i.e. how fast was the driver going at the time of the accident, etc. At least that's what it says in my manual.
It seemed to me that Watto the Slave Owner on Tatooine was a Jewish stereotype (look at his nose and listen to the accent)
I thought he was supposed to be an Italian stereotype?
Homeopathy should not be given any legitimate platform, nor should any other form of ridiculous pseudoscience. If you want students to have a critical lens, then teach them more rigor about the scientific method and drawing proper conclusions. Teach about flawed experiment designs, fabricated data, and the dangers of pay to publish journals.
Why not? Guys can be gals, white women can be black women, and nothing means anything anymore except what's popular. In these days of academic/cultural relativism homeopathy seems like a perfectly cromulent subject to embiggen U of T's students. I just hope they include the proper trigger warnings!
"The employees like it, the customers like it" By that reasoning, it should be legal to sell narcotics on the street.
Yes, it should. But more likely, if it was legal, it would be sold in stores.
With your bare hands?!?
