I wonder how the myopic thinkers will react to this scenario. Of course, we'll have to wait a decade for them to realize what has already happened.

Pretty sure they will consider it "Mission Accomplished."

Could it also be related to poorer parents working more hours, thus having less time to be with the kids during their early years playing with them, reading for them and otherwise stimulating their brain development? Or has that been corrected for?

Why would it need to be corrected for? If its was caused by Poverty then it SUPPORTS THE CONCLUSION.

How did people become so poor at basic science on this site?

Couldn't that be said by BOTH sides of this issue? Wouldn't it be injustice to force a private citizen to enter a private business contract/engagement with another private citizen against their will and against their beliefs?

No. That question was answered with de-segregation.

Large segments of society are not on board with the PC, wimpy, constantly-whining-about-bullying-and-____ism that is pervasive in media, especially an institution like BBC. Clarkson is a figure who pushes back at that trend, and many see him as a hero (now perhaps a martyr) for it

Careful, your persecution complex is showing. The guy was fired for physically assaulting someone. Assault is not considered free speech in any jurisdiction.

True, some ways of eating well are easier than others, though.

Personally, I have had some success recently by simply going with healthier starches. I could probably eat a pound of potatoes in a sitting, my body just loves that stuff, so for weeknight meals we do things like barley instead. Sub black or brown rice for white rice, etc...

I think if you want to support ISIS and fundamentalist Islam in a Western country, you should be given a one-way ticket to the Islamic country of your choice.

I do not agree with what you say. Not only will I not defend your right to say it, but I will try to get you deported. --definitely not Voltaire

I'm guessing you live in "The Land of the Free."

Humans can see if there's a gap in the road. They can see if the road has moved. They can judge unusual conditions.

Hah! You think your puny eyes can beat LIDAR and Laser range-finding sensors?

What a joke...

Don't look at the Laser Diode Arrays with remaining eye.

More like: Don't look at the Laser Diode Arrays with remaining head.

Yes Zaphod, you.

It could also be a result of increased biomass eating up more CO2. Someone needs to compare biomass via satellite mapping with the usage levels of natural gas, wood, coal and oil.

This is based on emissions data. Not atmospheric concentration.

I don't know. My doctor keeps telling me that water is good for me.

I heat my house with incandescent bulbs. Until LED's can do the same thing, I will never switch. What kind of an idiot would switch to a less efficient method of lighting AND heating their house?

I'm glad your ceiling is nice and toasty. The people are usually located on the floor, though.

which is why its NOT competitive with coal (really, nothing is).

If nothing is competitive with coal then why are all the coal plants in the US being retrofitted to run off Natural Gas?

What the hell, that link clearly says "B."

Huh? Where is "hate speech" defined in the Constitution? Hint.. It's not. This video does NOT depict speech that is illegal.

Which is why nobody was arrested

Only that people are free to SAY (or even publish) just about anything, including this drivel, as a matter of law.

Yes, they are allowed to say whatever they want. And this univiersity has the right to tell them it's unacceptable and revoke their frat priveleges.

As soon as the regulations are available, search them for terms like âoehate speechâ and "disparate impact." This will be a mass of restrictions, requirements, taxes, subsidies, and pay-offs to favored groups.

Exactly, my Title II regulated Phone line is constantly being censored.
