let's not get all excited there. Gosh is a bit strong of a term to use.

Exactly.
Canada is a multi-cultural society and darned proud of it.
Canadians will never live in Fear.
Ever.
People who think they will have no idea who Canadians are.
Stay strong.
Maybe this guy was distraught because he couldn't find any maple syrup? You KNOW how Canadians can become if they don't have their maple syrup...
Hmm. Good point. Syrup d'erable is a national treasure.
But more likely a shortage of Tim Bits.
Let me say this again, since it deserves repeating. Time and time again, posters on Slashdot talk about the 'fictitious' threat of terrorism that government uses as the excuse for encroachments on perceived liberties. You, the posters are the reason why an actual coordinated attack within a 'safe' democratic country is news on Slashdot.
I should point out this attack disastrously failed, due to Canada's strong gun laws and steadfast courage under fire.
Notice the lack of actual panic, and how bystanders did what they could quickly?
And a really cool Sergeant-at-Arms. Kudos.
Because Canada invented the Telephone, the Communications Satellite, Justin Bieber, and Astronauts Singing In Space.
OK, one of those was bad, but the others totally rocked.
A lot of the video is echos, only heard 9 actual. At least 3 at memorial.
Have only heard of 2 possible perpatrators, one is down.
Be safe, remember Canadians will never live in Fear, be strong.
(and to you in America, Canadians do know what to do)
all three are relevant research studies. gay marriage is legal in most of America, obesity is a known problem (it's Health), primates are our nearest analogs, and the latter choice might not be your cup of tea, but you'd be surprised what people do.
face it, you just love Russia and want America weak.
What are you talking about? Don't you remember The Breakfast Club?
Teens. I said women.
or you were a health care worker caring for Duncan. Or happened to live in the apartment complex where Duncan stayed. Or you happened to be on a flight from Texas to Ohio. Or on a flight from Ohio to Texas. Or one of those within 2 degrees of separation of any of these.
Read what I said.
Billions of people on this planet. Hundreds of millions in the US.
More people die from heat stroke in Texas than are even remotely considered "at potential risk".
It's like you worry about being attacked by Martians while crossing a busy highway.
Pay attention to the cars and trucks in the highway.
The funny thing is it's the cut in NIH funding that means we don't have vaccines, not the cut in CDC funding, which only manages it after it spreads.
CDC means Center for Disease Control
NIH means National Institute for Health
That and the cut for health care in Texas that increased the risk factors.
If you're a kid and you haven't had a polio shot, you're at greater risk of that.
Especially if you're at a school for rich kids.
If you're an adult, your best advice is to get a flu shot.
Early symptoms of flu are similar. If you get a flu shot, you won't be put in isolation until we know you don't have Ebola.
That said, you really shouldn't worry about Ebola if you live in the US. Unless you recently went to Africa.
Um. No.
Some of us learned to program in the 70s.
I think you mean the 60s movie depictions.
Most of those channels are religious and Spanish channels.
In case you haven't noticed, there are a lot more Hispanic people than non-Hispanic people in many US states.
And people like me who like watching soccer games and Hispanic music videos.
As I recall, it was more that, in movies and TV, women found romance working in business, and rarely in computing.
Computing meant anti-social. Business meant meeting attractive men in business suits with lots of money and power.
Geeks only had time travel in bad looking vans.
Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're guessing.
