It shouldn't even indicate that. Consensus has zero to do with truth or even confirmation of theory, scientifically speaking. The majority saying that the moon is made of green cheese does not mean that the moon is actually made of green cheese.

Nye may be a "science guy" but he's a popularizer, not a real scientist. Just an actor.

"This guy's career is totally a product of having the "right" position."

Which fits, because so do all his opponents. Scientific "consensus" is an indicator that something has gone horribly wrong with the scientific process.

" if proper peer review is undertaken"

The problem comes in when fads appear among the peers.

Oh, and back on topic and more to the point:
7. If gas tank 20% full and battery 20% full, hibernate mode on computer if accidentally left on and wheels are not moving. Right now if you tried to use a Gen2 prius as a backup house generator, you run the risk of bricking the system, unable to boot computer, unable to add more gas, must drag onto a flatbed and tow to Toyota to use their fancy charging system to bring the car back to life.

I guess I'd just make some different programming choices- and eventually really want to replace the computer in my Prius with one that has some added features. These features may already be available on newer models, mine is a 2006 Gen2.

Features I'd like to see:
1. The only reason to run the gas engine under 25 miles an hour should be for recharging and generating, period. EV mode only at low speed.
2. An expert mode should be available wherein "creep ahead at stop" is disabled
3. Cruise control should also be able to be set by a numeric keypad, and should be able to handle values lower than 23.
4. Sport mode should be available that disengages the traction control and enables all three motors for acceleration (you can get the second half of this in a gen2 by angrily stomping on the accelerator, it takes a second to engage, but you suddenly go from 34 HP to 174 HP as the second electric and the gas motor kick in).
5. Finer resolution than 5 minutes on the average MPG consumption graph.
6. Ability to download trip data onto an SD card.

If it is a hybrid and actually does charge itself.

Let's just hope that Dodge is slightly more sane in their programming than Toyota.

Not quite. That particular malware makes it into their database so other customers should be slightly safer.
I'm not sure how effective this anonymity through obscurity is though, presumably people in Kiev know which bank's ATMs randomly regurgitate cash. It will also have been reported so Ukranian (or Russian) speakers will be able to use Yandex or Google.

According to a study, seven million one-way crossings are made each year. That averages out at around 10 000 return crossings a day.
Compare that with Dover's 2013 figures which were 12.7 Million for "short sea crossings" and an additional 11 Million using the Tunnel.

I really don't think it could be cost-effective.
The distance involved is greater than the Channel Tunnel, and neither Finland nor Estonia has a large enough population to make it worth that much expenditure. There is no way passenger figures will match those of the Channel Tunnel and that particular project ended in tears for investors.

When Conservatives opposed a carny huckster, they were bigots merely because the target had brown skin. The race card is played based on the target, not the opposition.

Middle ages England would be nice. So would "Dark Ages" Italy.

Saying "Its a newspaper" is inadequate - the National Enquirer qualifies, so does the New York Times.
Conrad Black founded the National Post (while in charge of Hollinger) and writes for it now. He appears to have been in prison when the offending articles were published.

The only reason I like Carson is because opposing him proves that liberals like you are bigots.

Agreed on all of that. It's incredibly hard to defend a nation with porous borders, as Pope Francis just found out trying to protect the Vatican from child pornography. And yes, we need an overhaul of the welfare state AND modernization of the immigration system. In this day of Total Information Awareness, 10 years to get a background check for a green card is a scandal beyond comprehension.

Common core does not work for uncommon children. That alone should regulate it to the dust bin of history.

I want to see a return of the nun's loophole, but with three changes:
1. It should only be available on personal 1040s, not on corporate, and should not be available on the 1040EZ
2. The percentage should be lowered to equal to that individual's tax bracket, that is, if you voluntarily gave away equal to your withholding or greater on your W2, you should owe zero federal taxes. Likewise, if you have capital gains and you gave away more than 28% of the proceeds, you should owe zero federal taxes.
3. Charitable giving should reduce your tax burden dollar for dollar. You *should* be able to wipe out your federal taxes by writing a check to the Church. You should not have to spend 80% of your earnings to do it.
