Static electricity occurs when one thing rubs against another thing . Trees have a lot more surface area for the wind to rub against than empty fields.

Is that the feeling we get from sex?

You're asking this on Slashdot?

The fact that someone posting on slashdot has to ask what sex feels like doesn't surprise me at all.

Then my job here is done.

Enjoy your chuckles, lads.

Gotta ask (since the customer-satisfacton numbers year-after-year would belie your "craptacular" label): WTF, over?

I am not into companies which continually mislead their customers into thinking that they are 100% immune to trojans and viruses. It's shady at best and simply downright despicable at worst. Top that off with their outsourcing of nearly everything when it comes to manufacturing, and you have a terrible company hoarding all of its cash because of taxes (remember, Obama wants companies like Apple to pay WAY more than they currently do) while claiming to be different at the same time.

I don't care how many times my post gets modded down, Apple is a sham. Those machines are for people who don't mind being told what they can do with THEIR machines.

Oh. I'm sorry. Must be genetic.

Much the way your blatant stupidity is genetic?

Yeah, I do kind of get that vibe from you. I bet your eyes are all droopy and you wear a helmet out in public, "just in case."

But I am done responding to your absurdities. You were made to look incredibly stupid when I backed up my assertions, then you resort to insults. In turn, I am insulting you now. Remember - don't hate the player, hate the game.

You're welcome! I'm glad I could help. But you didn't answer the question :(

P.S.
You look stupid now that I provided some sources. The FDA is simply corrupt and NEEDS to be completely restructured. Now stop trolling and modding your own posts up on your other account, it makes you look like a complete idiot and not just the usual halfwit you come across as.

I love how you keep modding up your own posts here, hahaha.... funny as hell.

And I answered your question by pointing out how little you really know about the FDA, mister "I am NOT an American." You simply look foolish thinking that the FDA can be trusted when it's been corrupt for years and years and little to nothing's been done about it.

Real answer to your question: I've never done LSD.

I've read hundreds and hundreds of pages of reports and studies on it, however, and the only studies that seem to say it cannot be used as medicine (like psilocybin and marijuana) are the ones funded and created by governments who have anti-drug policies anyway, unless it is a chemical mixture with harmful effects that comes from a big pharma company.

So keep living in your delusional state of mind, where you think your government always has your best interests at heart. If they did, clearly we'd never fight wars we don't need to fight (read: war on drugs).

I love conspiracy morons :) You always brighten up my day!

Tell me, were you this way BEFORE taking LSD? Or did this behavior only manifest afterwards?

Yeah, FDA corruption is a HUGE conspiracy. Nothing credible has EVER been released about the FDA and their shady practices. In fact, they are the most perfect government body ever formed for protecting the American consumer ever conceived of.

Thanks for pointing it all out to me. Now that you have enlightened me, I think I will go sulk in a corner and reflect on my views of the FDA, which are all obviously conspiracy theories.

That's just ignorant, man. If LSD was put through the hoops by the FDA and then placed on the market, it would most likely have an even longer list of side effects. Why? Because if a enough people in a sample group develop a particular condition, it gets listed as a "possible side effect" regardless of whether there's any reason to suspect that the treatment caused it. Compound that with the fact that ANY drug is bound to have an adverse side-effect in at least a small percentage of the population, and you end up with scary looking lists that poorly informed people love to trot out in order to "prove" that their drug of choice is much safer than the stuff on the market. Whereas your dealer, unfortunately, doesn't provide an FDA-approved list to go with your narcotics.

The only ignorance here is that which belongs to you. You seemingly think you can trust an organization that's been found corrupt over and over again since its inception. If you think you can trust things that are KNOWN to give cancer, cause rashes that can kill you and make your babies come out looking like cauliflower, then by all means keep taking them. Hell, convince your entire family to take them. I bet you end up seeing more side effects from everyone than those "percentage" people you speak of because once it goes mainstream, it shows what it can do.

Remember... chemotherapy can cause cancer. The supposed "treatment" or "cure" actually can cause OTHER forms of cancer. Yet, it's still used even though its efficacy has been in question for a long time.

Why would the lamps for a mere five plants generate enough heat to be so obvious to a thermal imaging camera? Something doesn't add up -- for all the cops could tell, maybe he had a few computers in that room.

Also, as others have said, such searches were already ruled illegal without warrants eleven years ago. Perhaps they already knew he was growing, got a warrant, pulled out the IR camera and found a spot that was somewhat hotter than normal and decided to call that evidence and he had a crappy lawyer? Or perhaps he had five plants now, but way more previously?

Nah, he only had the 5 plants. But that was the evidence as presented in court. They did a flyover his area and noticed an unusual "heat signature" which was very different from the months prior to his installing the lights and growing the plants.

I realize it is illegal and all, but since when does that stop police from doing something? Remember, most of them are above the law and can do what they want... and typically have the support of the lower courts.

They have used it.

Had a friend who unfortunately decided to grow his own marijuana a few years ago. The cops found him by helicopter with the use of thermal imaging cameras. It was the best evidence they had when they raided him (he was growing like 5 plants) and arrested him. He was growing for personal use and was able to convince the court of that much and was not sent to prison or anything, but they DID use thermal cameras to find him.
