And yet I've been using CFLs for years and haven't had to replace a single one yet. So what's really going on.

He finally got tired of typing out that password and clicked, "Remember me on this site"

If you don't believe in all that science stuff, then I can see how that comparison might seem ridiculous.

Now, try to look at this from the perspective of someone who believes we have changed our atmosphere by burning fossil fuels - so far from the historic (human habited) average 280ppm CO2, to the current levels of 390ppm CO2, and at our current rate by the year 2100 it will be 1000ppm. If you believe either a) changing the chemical makeup of our atmosphere is inherently dangerous, or b) CO2 actually does have the infrared radiative (heat-trapping) properties that science says it has, then I think you could see how someone might see this as an existential threat equal to or greater than invasion by a foreign army.

Do you want to bring back leaded gasoline, too? In the name of freedom?

Actually, no. The recommendation for a broken CFL is to open the windows for 15 minutes to let any mercury vapor escape, and then clean up. There is no hazmat requirement, that's a myth being bandied about on the Internet. ,

I grew up watching the old series and I think I have the answer you're looking for: 4 key episodes from the old series and the infinitely more watchable new series.

The modern series definitely stands on its own, but it does have a lot of in-jokes and references to the old series, so it might be worth finding a few key episodes from the Tom Baker (4th Doctor) years. I'd recommend just as a sample the ones where Douglas Adams was involved: Pirate Planet (you'll recognize the writing if you've read THHGTTG), Shada, and City of Death. You will also want to watch Genesis of the Daleks, as Davros and the Daleks play an important role in the Doctor Who multiverse.

So there's 4 old episodes to get your bearings, and then dive into the new series from the beginning (and listen carefully for a mention of that nice young man Arthur Dent in series 1).

Well I would have spent $250,000 on music, but downloading for free was just so easy!

You kids get off my LAN!

Caps lock should be activated automatically when your blood pressure rises above a threshold level.

"If more nerds got some, maybe we'd have the Higgs Boson on lock already."

Hear that ladies? The future of mankind is in your hands! Please?????

That the iPad would revolutionize online porn as we know it.

Also, it wipes clean with a damp cloth.

And he traded 3 megabytes of RAM for a plane ticket to Australia.

Time travel is all part of the conspiracy. Liberal scientist time travelers are going to go back into time and live before the draconian business-killing eco-conspiracy laws go into effect. Then they are going to offer all the conservatives a trip to the future. Sounds good? Well it does until they get to the future and find they have to pay a huge carbon tax for no reason! Ha ha ha!

Unless they release the unedited version, I say this is BS. If the original version had no big black "censored" block, then how would the joke have worked when Tom Cruise got the goo and his own censored block? Can anyone explain how that joke would have made sense without a censored block?

Matt and Trey have a history of subversive comedy. When Bush was president, they said in an interview that it wasn't radical to oppose Bush, but saying "Bush is awesome" is hard-core. Come on, they love this stuff.

I don't believe this any more than I believe the credits of "John Doe" were because they were afraid of being sued by Scientology.

I can see them laughing at all the over-reaction (f---ing Muslims!) here and elsewhere. Andy Kaufman would be proud.

On a side note, the problem is not Muslims, the problem is a--holes who issue death threats and do other nasty things. A lesser problem is people who think the problem is Muslims.

You can't stop your brain from slowly turning to mush. You may as well enjoy the ride.
