Yeah, I somewhat misread your post.

Yes but again people denouncing climate change "deniers" don't shoot them.

Fiat currency is a shared myth. It works because so many believe it has value.

Yeah it's like the one side speaking back about its beliefs is TOTALLY the same as one side shooting back because of theirs

BTW in this country, sure some Christians speak out against gays, but again, that other religion is killing them instead.

Bbbbbbut crusades. You got an example that's not hundreds of years old?

Yes, but if your desktop fails it doesn't fall out of the sky.... most of the time

Actually it will.

I seriously believe that Tesla's cars are beautiful electric cars and if I had enough money, I'd own one.

I also believe that Tesla's will get both better AND cheaper until more people (even most people) can afford them. Of course that also includes other manufacturers upping their electric car game too.

When superior electric cars (and the high range Tesla Model S's are superior) are cheap enough for everyone, people will flock to buy them.

Then we just need to build Nuke plants to power all these electric cars, shutter all the coal plants an viola! Problem solved.

Now you will argue that that won't happen, that its all pie in the sky, but I'm saying its inevitable -- given time. Because if we want to solve this problem without kneecapping the economy, its what HAS to happen.

Taxes, and rules and regulations are the things that seem like they'll solve the problem, but they really won't.

Technology WILL.

That's not a problem. In exchange for believing in an infinite number of universes with infinite instances of me, I'll gladly accept that there are also an infinite number of universes without me.

I'm sure there's a universe out there where John Noble doesn't get constantly cast as a crackpot.

As long at the initial diesel creation from CO2 and Water used CO2 from the air, then you're just on the other side of the loop. The CO2 you capture doesn't have to be the same CO2 given off by combustion, it just has to be the same amount.

Well, talk is excluded because they don't play music outside of the bumper music going into and out of commercial.

You could argue that they should pay based on that, but then a talk station with less than $1 in revenue would be paying the same as a 24/7 music station, and that hardly seems fair. Plus if that happened, it could spell the end of bumper music and the talk stations would claim that they play no music, why are they being charged.

The religious exemption, I have no clue. Religious music publishing and radio works the same as regular music.

Republicans have a incredible chance to capture a huge part of the IT vote by coming out strong against H1B visas.

Because this is a smart idea, they will of course not do this.

Time to watch The Matrix again!

Ah, the ad hominem attack, what a great display of your intellect.

A word of warning. You will not get the minutes of your life wasted on reading this back.

To call it sophomoric drivel is an insult to sophomores.

It may have good and correct political intentions, but it is overtly cloying, snooty, and pretentious.

It is not good writing by any measure. That it is "award winning" is a travesty.
