The owner shuffling of the Press Gazette (who runs the awards) through the 90s, then them going out of business in 2006 and than being bought and remade (this is where I was pulling the PB comparison) in 2006, then sold yet again in 2009.

The "3 years" bit was me looking at the site and only seeing awards dating back to 2009 (apparently they redid the site with the last change of ownership and didn't bother bringing the old records with them) and was an error on my part.

ODing on vitamin C would take some doing. The predicted LD50 is about 12 grams per kilogram. You'd be more likely to die from choking on it than from ODing on it.

2. And? Despite Conservative claims, there were very few (as in barely-breaks-two-digits) complaints about it.

5. You have a funny definition of "fact". Pipelines spill more than twice as much oil (per amount transported) as railroads do.

Saying the current Press Awards were established in 1970 is about as accurate as saying that Packard Bell, seller of cheap crappy computers in North America, was established in 1933.

Some, yes, but Harper and Flaherty were already running the country into a deficit (From a surplus when they got elected) before the economic issues came along.

Wow! Awards from an organization that has been going for a whole 3 years. That's certainly a long-standing respected organization.

or c) The people who own it don't give a crap about the long term because they need to meet the numbers for next quarter and collect their bonus or because by the time the problem shows up, they'll have already got their money and buggered off to the Bahamas.

Easy. You just use your policy. Not having that annoying conflicting evidence cluttering things up saves you time as you don't need to bother with policy-based evidence making and can just plow ahead.

Then you use more tomahawks, obviously.

Then you send in the drones.

No, it's really the NRMA. National Rifle Manufacturers Association. But they liked having a three letter initalism instead.

Some small improvements.

Correct. But they aren't affirming that they represent the owner of the work being taken down, just the one they're claiming they own.

"I affirm that I am the copyright owner on X. Take down Y."

They are not affirming that X is Y, merely that they own X.

MSG is apparently used as a stabilizer.

I believe Breyer, Scalia, Kennedy, and Ginsburg only have Bachelor's degrees in law.

So we should only expect them to persist for the next century or so.
