Share on, you crazy pirate.

I tend towards doubting the "science" of the Breathalyzers used also. One of my friend was stopped recently and the cop told him that if he was chewing mint gum, spit it out and wait a bit because it could increase the alcohol reading by up to 0.02%. That's a HUGE margin of error for determining whether or not to give a guy a $6000 fine.

I really like some of the Treehouse of Horror episodes. Episodes 5 and 7 are probably my favorites, because of "The Shinning" and "Citizen Kang".

Well in my case they certainly did. The password I had been using was "very secure", or whatever their highest rating of them is called, and somehow they got in to my account to send messages. I saw server bounce messages popping up on emails written in Spanish, so I was fairly certain they weren't coming from me. This was around Jan/Feb though, and from TFA:

I have a headache.

I consider beer to be medicine, so that keeps my food expense pretty low.

Go Cats!

There are recent studies showing it may be possible that some of our methane on Earth is being created by the high pressure/temp conditions in the earth's mantle, rather than exclusively by the decay of organic matter. A written article on this, or an NPR segment (about 1/3 of the way into the audio file).

So what about the "invisibility cloaks" (http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/05/13/2215220) that are being researched. At some point could those metamaterials theoretically redirect the energy from these lasers?

The page you linked to is a little misleading with its title. The "safety" measure they are using to rank each state is percentage of fatal crashes in which at least one driver tested positive for alcohol.

That's probably derived from a line in Hunter Thompson's Hell's Angels.

So Gears of War is an accurate intermediate step for future weaponry design... guns with saws!

I think you actually need to RTFA, because at no point does it say that stretching in general is bad for you. What it does say, is that several studies have shown certain types of stretching to decrease performance, while other methods do not have the same negative effects.
