You do not need a Facebook account to view public pages.

The comment in question was made by the Netflix CEO on his public Facebook page, which has 200,000 followers. The SEC is investigating because it may be unfair disclosure of material information.

.
What I do not understand is how can disclosure on a public Facebook page with 200,000 followers be considered "unfair disclosure," while disclosing similar information to a dozen or so financial analysts in a private analyst meeting is considered to be "fair disclosure."

Government grants like that result in successful companies about 90% of the time, while private equity funding results successful companies less than 60% of the time. It looks like the government is better at finding companies to fund (and jobs to create) than private equity is.

.
The problem is that you only hear about the government failures, and you only hear about the private equity successes.

.
In the end, what matters is not what has been said, but the laws and resolutions that have been passed.

Watch what they do, not what they say they are doing.

You really need to get a life....

That depends upon what you mean by "something like this?

.
Do you mean to imply that an "average nerd" fosters possible illegal activity?

Or do you mean to imply that having a Tor node is OK?

I understand the meaning quite well, especially as it is used within the context of what I quoted.

I can personally experience a month when the global temperature is high. Indeed, I have experienced a month when the global temperature is high. I am not saying that I've traveled the globe experiencing all the temperatures around the world.

Reading comprehension, you should try it sometime.

If you had read my entire post, you would have seen this part which is the lead up to the sentence you selectively quote out of context:

It clearly talks about global average temperatures, a singular average temperature average across land and ocean surfaces

However, if you prefer to ignore great swaths of text so that you can feel good about yourself, feel free to continue to parade your ignorance.

If you had read and understood what the article stated, the temperature being talked about was the global average temperature, not the temperature of your local area.

.
Nowhere on the surface of the planet have we seen any record cold temperatures over the course of the year so far. Every land surface in the world saw warmer-than-average temperatures except Alaska and the eastern tip of Russia. The continental United States has been blanketed with record warmth — and the seas just off the East Coast have been much warmer than average, for which Sandy sends her thanks.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration summarizes October 2012:

Emphasis added. If you were born in or after April 1985, if you are right now 27 years old or younger, you have never lived through a month that was colder than average. That’s beyond astonishing....

Denial does not solve problems.

I suspect most would not be so forthcoming.

Yes.
