Comcast is a monopoly in my area (Twin Cities). How exactly do I vote with my dollar?

The problem with this argument is that while it is a very practical solution, it does not speak to the pioneering soul. Space is a frontier, full of danger and mystery. For humans to experience its possibilities we need to see it firsthand.

I think this depends on the context and tone in which you make this reply. Your assumption here is a snarky tone in an unsolicited context. Since text has no tone and this was a solicited situation (the poll is asking us our opinion), you might want to give the benefit of the doubt here. It's factually true - I've put childish things, or toys, away. A toy, in my mind, only has inherent value. It doesn't "do anything." I have nothing against such things and the world is probably better off containing them. It's just that I, personally, have no time to play with or interest in them.

I can't believe I'm a Stephen King nerd too, but it's the Walking Dude... c'mon!

It's this kindergarten shit that keeps the world from moving forward. Freakin pissing contests with no winner. Plus - the Russian bathroom doesn't have a webcam.
