Not to mention that the people visiting these "no clue" sites also have connections to the clueless. I can use social network A to inform my friends about a thing, and they can use network B to inform their friends, and some of us might even gripe about these things over morning coffee in the real world. The speed of information has made the planet a whole lot smaller, and being pessimistic about any one facet in particular is missing the forest for the trees.

Can and do. I'm on hiatus right now, because I'm not the kind of guy who cheats on a test.

Your number is even higher than the one I got out of WolframAlpha the other day, which worked out to $1.379 billion (1.379x10^9 or in binary 1010010001100011101111011000000, ) per day. I am reminded of that Oreo video from a few years ago. Seems like if we'd bring some of our forces home to stand like an army aught, then maybe we could do something about the facts that schools are fail, infrastructure is crumbling, health care is a luxury, etc. This is an effing farce. We can't rub two dimes together to help our own people out, but we fall all over ourselves to make sure that the war machine is well oiled.

Interesting. Thanks. *yoink*

Naw, everybody is just pronouncing it wrong.

He could, but it wouldn't be worth the effort.
