.. mining , transporting and refining the ores required to create these nanowire arrays and the surrouding support material for them and the bacteria compared to the amount they sequester before they need replacing? Its a rather important fact to know.
And the 3rd most dangerous is pilots. In supposedly the safest form of transport on the planet! I know , lets ban flying too!
Got anything better or is that it?
Oh, thats it, well thanks for playing.
"Well as someone who has lost three close friends and one acquaintance in traffic crashes.... fuck you. I hope you die in a car accident (seriously)."
Oh GTFU you silly little boy.
"Not safe compared to anything which isn't a motorcycle."
Utter crap. Why arn't there cemeteries full of dead taxi, bus and truck drivers who spend their working lives on the roads then? Spare us your hysterial nonsense. If you're too scared to drive then stay at home and cuddle some kittens and don't bother the rest of us.
Not safe compared to what - staying in bed under the duvet? You're more at risk crossing the road in some places that being in a car - perhaps we should ban walking?
Anyway, I said the west. Thats more than just the USA. Here in europe people do use public transport when it suits them.
Most situations are scary to new drivers. It doesn't mean they're risky.
"We'll eventually be giving up more and more manual control of our cars, and as a result, driving is going to become safer and safer."
Driving is already pretty damn safe in the west given the total number of journeys made and distances travelled. Its only the bedwetting health and safety hysterics who would have us believe otherwise.
Personally I have no intention of giving up manual control of my car and I'm quite happy with the teeny tiny risk that entails. Besides, people who don't want to drive already have a number of options - taxi, bus, train.
But how is Tracy supposed to update her facebook profile and send tweets on her phone and check her make up in the mirror if she has to worry about irritating distractions like situational awareness and car control? Please , Think Of The Chi^H^H^H Millenials!
Umm, how about getting it developed by people who have quite a number of years driving experience instead. What an inexperienced driver might think is important might not be so to an experienced one and vice verca.
I'd stop drinking so much of the Assange Kool Aid if I were you and pay a visit to fanboy detox.
In his eyes he can do no wrong so what does he have to apologise for? If the president had died, well, just collateral damage for the greater good, right?
You need to get out more. Before Winter comes of course.
Amen to that. Wish I had mod points.
The reason there are more demonstrations with right wing governments in power anywhere is that the sort of hard left types who demonstrate are usually young , angry and naive. Right wing voters are usually more mature and protest in other ways when a left wing government is in power.
Suggest you just sit there and wait till life gets easier.
