Soybeans are also yuk. It seems fitting that they'd be combined with roundup readyness.

You must mean the new sense of 'fascism', which is "things I don't like." Clearly you can't mean it in the traditional sense, because you'd know that 'brave dissidents' such as yourself would have been hauled off to concentration camps or simply executed in a truly fascist regime. You must also mean the new sense of 'progressive', which means not an advocate of progress, but someone trying to implement ideas that have brought much of Europe to it's knees. (Real fascists did that by spilling blood.) The 'progressives' there have run out of other people's money to hand out that decent standard of living you're so keen on.

Really, it must be fun to re-assign words like fascist and progress to suit your political agenda, and be largely unchallenged on your mauling of the language.

But hey, I could be wrong. That next knock on the door could be the Neo-SS come to haul you off to a concentration camp for daring to criticize those in power. Good luck in there.

So, I assume you've got a list of actual tax dodging right wing political advocacy groups to back up your profiling comparison to Muslim radicals with a very real body count. No? Because a quick search (starting with Former Head Tax Collector & Tax dodger Timothy Geitner) will yield plenty of tax delinquents in, or on good terms with, the current administration.

The people you're trying to 'profile' still believe in the rule of law, even if the current law sucks. The people you defend don't; they believe in exercising power for the benefit of their team. Your comparison cannot be substantiated. Your defense is rationalization for your tribe, nothing more.

I welcome your actual proof to the contrary; that is, examples of tax dodging by the sort of groups in question that would justify profiling.

Yeah, those tax-evading tea partiers like Timothy Geitner and a good portion of the white house staff. It's about power, and exercising power to the detriment of your enemies and the benefit of your friends. The Rule of Law is not the point. It's Chicago style politics writ large. There will always be people, like you, who will rationalize and defend the behavior as a method of servicing their ideological tribesmen. In generating excuses and furthering the degrade of the rule of law, you are a retrograde, who pushes humanity towards baser tribal behavior, and away from enlightenment values. But f*ck it, they're on your team, so it's all good, right?

Thus one learns the need to delegate tasks, respect folks in their field of expertise (though perhaps not further), and do your own research when you have a need for specific knowledge on something.It strikes me as a rather adult thing to learn and accept your limitations, and how to accomplish what needs doing despite your limited capacity and knowledge.

Here one should learn history to gain some perspective. Currently, I'm reading a biography of Winston Churchill, and I find myself astounded at how duplicitous, weak, and downright willfully ignorant Chamberlain's government was in the run up to World War 2. I think little of our current political leaders; it's heartening to know the free world has lived through worse. This, of course, applies to any human field one might become despondent about.

You're here. If you're not gonna put that pistol in your mouth and pull the trigger, you might as well do something with your time here. Get moving.

In any standardized intelligence test, I always scored north of the 95% percentile. In my travels, I've learned that intelligence alone accounts for little- your attitudes, habits, moral standards, and fortitude count tremendously, and your intellect might be best applied to improving your character in those other fields.

You, I think, have reinforced that point. You're smart. So what? Take that as a challenge, not a sarcastic dismissal, and you'll do better.

First, you're conflating weapons production (The Hanford mess) with electrical power generation. I imagine that's purposeful on your part, because you wouldn't have as much to talk about if you focused on electrical power production.

Now, I'd like to point out that this mess was created when the science involved was new, and there were a million unknown factors about the entire nuclear business- weapons and power production- that were completely unknown at the time. The science and processes became known through the work folks today degrade as 'nutty' and 'screw ups', though if we hadn't done that work, we wouldn't know anything. The discovery of new knowledge can be a messy business, but the acquisition of that knowledge allows us to be more sensible later on. You don't know what you don't know.

Further, the worst and greatest volume of the waste comes from plutonium production, not the refinement of uranium, which is what electricity-producing nuclear reactors use.

Isn't that what you're supposed to do - type to mitigate some of the shoulder-surfing issue by making it that much more difficult for someone to notice where your fingers are.

The first couple seasons were far superior, but the original at least didn't get to the point of having a disappointing and non-sensical ending.

Kickstarter is terrible advertising, because their discovery interface is not well designed. I've literally never found anything on kickstarter I was interested in that I did not already know about from other sources (such as here...).

I've tried to find stuff on my own, but I don't have the time or inclination to drill into one of their overly broad categories and browse through everything. You can't even do an intersection of categories like music and <my town> which should be a pretty obvious one to make available.

The most prominent stuff you can find is also the stuff that is already past the funding date...

That's not unique to indie films. That's not even unique to films with the word, "star" in the title...

Also, you need to not have any friends who use facebook, or you'll get a "shadow account" created for you if you don't sign up....

Ah, yes, your technique would work rather well. I'm pleased to report, though, that of the first three pages of Google results for my alias, only the Slashdot link is about me. Obviously your results are far better still.

Right. At least the guy who was "Dr Bob, DC" had the decency to quit after the jig was up.

I'm not sure what you're arguing with me about; this all started with me coming up with a use for which 1Gbit is useful. You make it sound like I'm saying we should all stick with 5Mbps cable modems, when I'm saying exactly the opposite.
