What about x-rays and gamma rays?

Grinding it to filings is not fast.

Less than fifteen minutes to totally destroy it, I would say.

This is not the case for ApplePay. You get a notification on your phone asking "do you want to pay (amount) to (vendor)", and you put your thumb on the fingerprint reader if you do. Less time than handing the cashier a bill and waiting for him to count out your change.

A significantly higher proportion of teens who smoke pot will go on to develop schizophrenia than those who don't. It is not a benign drug. You wouldn't get high if it was.

I know several programmers who don't believe in evolution. I can extrapolate from that (even conservatively) ...

US states with tougher gun laws have less relative crime than even neighbouring states with weak gun laws. The parent poster is obviously an NRA type who has drank too much of the Koo-aid.

Is it possible that those who want to ride it longer use their propaganda arm (like CNN) to declare there is no bubble? In case some are getting a little antsy that it will pop soon?

What if you use some tool and hammer to overstamp the serial numbers. Like scribbling over it. Then grind it down. Or if it is in a place that can be heated and cooled... like annealing... where any loss in strength from the operation, were it to happen, wouldn't be an issue. Would that change the underlying crystal structure significantly. I'm sure it would affect it some, but would it be enough to allow the crystal structure to 'reset' and erase the original stamp marks?

Anyone who swore to preserve, protect and defend the constitution, and then voted to violate it, is a hypocrite.

...is just not paying attention.

I never bought what he was selling, but any democrat who still supported him after he signed an extension of the PATRIOT act is a goddamned hypocrite.
