I had a 1981 Nissan Sentra Diesel that got 55 mpg in the city. It had worse emissions per gallon than the '81 Ares K I had owned previously but if you do the math for the mileage the Diesel Sentra was MUCH better over all...

Aren't Space Marines, perhaps even the Imperial Guard the best war to deal with the Tau?

Yeah, as mentioned by other this is BS. I have been living on a diet consisting of less than 30grams of net carbs/day for over 3 years and my primary food is from meat, chicken, and fish. The only carbs (sugar of any variety) that I eat are from berries (strawberries, blackberries raspberries, etc) and pecans walnuts and almonds. In fact I went from 2200 kcals to 3400kcals and in that time, I am lost 65lbs (first 6 months) and have kept it off; my total cholesterol has decreased from 150 to115, my HDL is up and my LDL is down. My blood pressure when from 130/75 to 110/65. My memory has improved and I have WAY more energy. The body IS much better off using ketones for energy.

Sociability is a poor benchmark for intelligence. Look at the average /.er or IT/technology guru. Generally not the social icon, but extremely intelligent. Additionally, look at most blonds. Highly sociable, not very smart. My cat has been trained to use the toilet...and flush when he is done. Try to get a dog to do that!! A cat will not eat the meat that is even slightly tainted but a dog will eat literally anything, including dog poop. This example alone shows which animal is smarter in my opinion.

Just use phone numbers as an example. When I was a kid (ok I am showing my age now) we had to actually memorize phone numbers. I think that I have like 3 numbers that I can call off the top of my head, otherwise I need my cell phone. If my cell phone dies I am f-ed ( I have them archived somewhere though). The same will happen with the wider use of GPS'. The more we lock in way points and destinations we will lose the need to recall them on our own....at least until Dec. 2012 when the satellites fall from the sky but the world will erupt into a fire ball then anyway so it won't matter. (It is a joke people..haha laugh)

This is why the DoD funded the development of the JNN. We can do this and more with a JNN, guess what...we already have it. So the DHS is just wasting more of our money. Thanks guys, as if things aren't bad enough already.

or are all out of code....

Lascannons? no way! the new Punisher Gatling cannon dude!

RNC? I thought I said conservatism. The Republican party, although it claims to be, is not conservative at all.

I'll tell you what has changed... /. I have never seen more rampant conservatism here on /. I...I think I am starting to a bit teary actually. Where have you guys been?

Also, I think it was t-shirt hell, had a t-shirt with Obama gazing stoically into the future and a caption which read "Just another brother looking for change".

Hey what would happen if they used this robotic interface to remotely control the 'remote controlled rat' of a couple of years ago? That might actually be kinda fun when you think about it...plus it might be helpful in fully understanding the complexities of the....rat....race...buhah..buuwhahahaha

Would you like to go line by line and look at the bill of rights and list out how each has been abridged, misstated or outright ignored? They have all been f-with on some level...except perhaps the Third Amendment. But then again who doesn't quarter troops in there house these days?

I feel dumber for having to say this....YES the last sentence (and only the last) is a joke...

I got mono from Rachel Jellin in 9th grade....f-that man...Thanks but no thanks!!

I dunno...Nukes can be messy....why not a low yield neutron? After a few weeks it will be same investigate and or repopulate.
