Lets try to find something else renewable that will work.

It frightens me that this is the level of intellectual clarity the majority of America brings to big problems.

The report said it would not work for more than 5 percent of transportation fuels at the current state of the technology, not that it wasn't a viable alternative if some of the technological challenges can be addressed.

That's what this bit means: However, the potential to shift this dynamic through improvements in biological and engineering variables exists.

Maybe you should stick to problems that can be solved by banging rocks together.

You won't read anything about Biden not being engaged tomorrow. So far he's making Ryan look like an amateur and he's not letting Ryan get away with lying.

Biden is crushing it.

Geese are going to sue the Air Force for intellectual property infringement.

It may seem hard to believe now, but gold, silver and diamonds used to lay on the surface of the Earth. It wasn't until man got to the point we were writing things down that we started collecting the shiny things on the surface.

All I'm suggesting is it could be naturally occurring or it could be ejecta from an impact event involving an asteroid with a high metallic content.

It's hard reading IT train wreck stories, especially when the damage is self-inflicted. And yet I saw that same attitude, on both sides of the transaction, acted out over and over.

A long time ago a CIO I worked for said he wasn't worried as long as he had a throat he could choke if things went sideways. The only thing he cared about was having somewhere to cast blame.

Those were the days I naively cared about doing a good job.

Much more likely to deregulate, support offshoring, and expand the H1-B visa pool.

That's because of those moocher tech workers who feel entitled to 8 hour work days, decent salaries and health care coverage.

Obviously they've never lived in the "real world". Where if you don't like your crappy, slave-wage job you can just ask daddy if you can borrow enough money to start your own company.

It can lose an engine and still make it into orbit! Seriously, how amazing is that?

I supposed they could go with fewer engines, but if they lose one the consequences are greater.

Now they have proof the fail-over systems work. Don't mess with success.

Clarence Thomas used to work for Monsanto as an attorney in the 70s. I'm going to guess that a hypocrite won't really care about a little thing like conflict of interest.

It didn't stop him from ruling on the Affordable Care Act.

Fight fire with fire.

Perhaps a camera system that pinpointed the guilty party would be more useful. You wouldn't get everyone, but maybe enough that word would get out.

I still like your idea better but frickin airliners with frickin lasers are just never going to fly.

I've brought down a few of my coworkers the same way.

I watched the unedited footage, it wasn't that bad. In Europe they show traffic accidents in all their horror, burned bodies and all.

I just don't get why this is such a big deal. I loath Fox News because they're the propaganda arm of the GOP, not because of something trivial like this.

The only place I can see this working is suburbs with wide spacing between homes, or rural areas.

Or Nebraska.

You advertise a job at a ridiculously low wage, or with ridiculous requirements, and when no American worker responds or qualifies (because American programmers and engineers won't work for $30,000 a year and don't have 20+ years Java development experience), you run crying to Congress and the Labor Dept. that you need more H1-B visas to fill the "critical shortages of qualified workers.

I still get H1-B phony pitches. ColdFusion programmer jobs half-way across the country offering $35K a year. Yeah, I'm going to pounce right on that.

No Americans want that job, time to bring in an H1-B!

As long as it's not pushing forced ads, I have no problem with Ubuntu setting up a shopping network and app sales.

They have to make money somehow and this seems like one of the less offensive services they could implement.
