Scientology members complaining about being harassed is like Mormons bitching about missionaries knocking on their doors.

It even said in the FA that they were maps of the 3G coverage. As long as the maps are accurate, I can't see what they are complaining about. Nowhere is it implied that the normal service is limited to those same maps.

A case of sour grapes by AT&T.

Maybe if they'd use some of that iPhone money to expand their infrastructure instead of hiring lawyers and racking up executive bonuses...but nah, that's crazy talk.

If you opened it to anyone, all of the conservative pundits (Beck, Coulter, O'Riley, Limbaugh) would cry and cry about how much Obama hates America because he let everyone bid.

Well, if I really wanted to be a pedant about it, I could point out that you are incorrect in stating that the United States as a whole "incorporated all of the common law of England up to that point" as Louisiana State law is based on the Napoleonic Code and Spanish Law, which were both derived from Roman Law.

SpaceX is also using a brand-new rocket, recently designed and based off of all the technical expertise gained through decades of experience because of the groundwork NASA laid.

The shuttles are the first and only shuttles ever designed, and are decades old.

Just to make sure we have the car analogy: This is like complaining the owner of an original Model T won't drive in the same conditions the owner of a F150 will.

Similar things have happened with me. When I was a kid I had a big Siamese (Neutered). One time my grandmother was dragging me out back to get a willow branch to spank me because me and my sister had been fighting. I was resisting her and crying and whatnot, and my cat jumped on her back, bit and clawed her up pretty bad actually, and I ran off to my room. By time I opened the window he was there waiting to be let in.

For Sir eh?

Really? Straw man attacks get modded insightful these days?

Listen, I consider myself an environmentalist, and so do several people I know. None of this fit into this straw man argument you've built up. Yes, there are some environmentalists out there who are crazy as hell, but the vast majority are not like that. I'd actually be perfectly fine with building new nuclear power plants, beaming power from space, and whatever else is safer, less polluting, and reliable than things like coal and oil.

For you to characterize all environmentalists automatically being against everything new is insulting and, of itself, wholly ignorant. Using such a sad logical fallacy is more indicative of someone who has a weak argument.

You don't say?!

What a load of infantile drivel. Just because you cannot handle it doesn't mean no one can. Stop projecting your fears and prejudices onto others.

Soy Sauce is frequently made from human hair. In fact, you've probably eaten some yourself. When you buy Soy sauce make sure you check the ingredients. And yes, I am being 100% serious.

Pharoah/Cleopatra is a highly underrated game. I had high hopes for Children Of The Nile but it just wasn't as fun. They took a macro approach that made things less interesting.

These people put waaay too much effort into making fund of dinosaurs.
