As long as nothing goes wrong.

I'm not a Scottish or European person. Perhaps the average coal plant in Europe is around 1000 megawatts.

You mean you're the one who stole my bike!? You bastard! :^D

This sort of depends. I've yet to have a bike stolen, but I tend to ride to places where I know my bike will be safe. If I'm going somewhere where I don't know that my bike will be safe (like to the local mall), I'll ride my cheap bike.

The nice thing about something like this is that since it's pretty much self-contained, you can take it with you. So I could attach this $800 wheel to my $150 Huffy and ride 30 miles or so. When I get to my destination, I'd detach the $800 wheel and take it with me and use a simple lock on the Huffy. If somebody really wants my Huffy, they can have it (though they'll need to get a new wheel).

I always think that, too, but it's Law Enforcement Officers.

Of course, I was wondering why Leos would be able to force you, but Capricorns or Virgos wouldn't be able to.

I keep seeing this and I'm not convinced.

Some of it is the whole "digital hub" thing. I don't really want to try to read web pages or watch movies on my watch. The screen is just too damned small. Look at "small" screened smart phones as an example. The original iPhone's 3.5" screen was huge when it first came out. But people wanted bigger screens.

I like the idea of a bunch of devices that work with my phone. For example, I could see my "smartphone" receiving data from my "smartwatch" and presenting it on my "smartglasses."

My personal favorite is the paint shaker. The low-tech version is also wrapping it up with some padding and putting in the dryer on the "air" setting.

My roomate's company did something similar. They had a contest with prizes to see who walked the furthest. It worked at first, but then everybody started trying to get the prizes without exercising. They eventually gave up when the "cheating" became obvious.

Pedometers are pretty simple devices and fairly easy to trick.

Yes. Because we all know how that turned out. Nobody got ebola.

It's Obama's Fault!

I'll admit, I don't know the truth. But I'd kind of doubt it.

First, we're not talking about one or two stations, we're talking about every gas station in a 5 mile radius does it. Perhaps more--I haven't checked. Second, we're not talking about "Joe's Gas & Sip"--these are Shell, Mobil, Chevron, and 76 stations.

I think somebody found a loophole.

It's that half their rockets succeed. You need to be more optimistic!

I believe it was. I was watching NASA TV this morning and they were talking about how Orbital's craft would be arriving on Tuesday and there were some "consumables" for various experiments on board. I found an article here that mentions it as well.

I don't believe there was anything in there that was critical for space station operations--the astronauts won't starve or anything. There's also a Progress launch planned in the next few days.

I was thinking of: "All things are easy to those who don't have to do them."

Or it is a terror network that is Al-Quida-free. Because you know those Al-Quida people are always downloading porn...

While I agree, remember that the guys who tried to bomb the World Trade Center back in the '90s were caught when they went back to pick-up the deposit on the rental trucks they used as bombs.

Sometimes people make stupid mistakes which gets them caught.

Here's a fun one to try: Set up a Wireless Access Point with an arabic name and see if people freak out.

I see them all the time at gas stations in Southern California.
