Now try to read that without it sounding like Fry from Futurama in your head.
This has been around for a while (at least 3 weeks) and so far the ONLY Android phones it supports are on Verizon. If you access their page with anything else they tell you to get a Verizon phone.
If they are setting off earthquakes they would be releasing tension which would have only amounted to a larger earthquake at a later date.
Yes some energy will be dissipated in the process of fracturing the rock but it breaks the equilibrium and creates a new stress point elsewhere which could trigger the "main" fault (discovered or not).
Besides, if you want Congress to (e.g.) redesign the health care system, do you think they would actually do a better job if doctors, hospitals, and drug companies weren't consulted at all? I don't. I think they'd end up with legislation that was even more clueless. Just because lobbyists are arguing for a particular group doesn't mean they're always wrong.
No I don't expect them to write it themselves because as you noted they do not have the expertise in the subject to come up with anything that makes sense. However I do expect them to consult with well known experts in the field being legislated and develop something with them. This does not include a lobbyist at all because all you get with them is a mish mash of opposing ideas from both sides that get pushed into the same bill and do nothing but muddle the works. Just like when they are reviewing a new net neutrality law, who do we want providing guidance? We don't want the big corporations overwhelming everybody because they can afford to. We want people from the field the everyday foot soldiers like you and me providing the guidance. Why? Because we know what the reality is and what is possible without respect to what is best for Mr. CEO's purse.

It's a word. Was it used correctly? If so, it's fine.
You mean like this?
