I still have my program decks of hollerith cards from school for Fortran, RPG II and COBOL; now get off my lawn you whipper-snapper. Ever see a CPU made out of wirewrapped NAND gates?

I'll see your trajectoryof a ball and raise you a Pioneer Anomaly

Supposedly it's increased privacy, which is pretty thin also; I don't even say "Hi" first to our patients I see on the street due to potential HIPPA concerns.

Not necessarily, that "Mutual Privacy Agreement" is the kind of stupid shit dental consultants sell, and practices that hire these charlatans are usually in pretty bad trouble financial trouble. A fair number of Dentists develop bad personal spending habits, dentistry requires a high degree of hard won skills, which leads to big ego's and sometimes narcissistic behaviours like impulsive spending habits.

Yes actually it is part of salt, table salt or sea salt are complex mixtures of primarily sodium, potassium and calcium halide salts those halides are primarily chlorides, fluorides, iodides. Mid-western soils are iodine depleted so we need more iodine than is naturally in the salt to make up the difference.

Feed them crabby-patties, they're topped in iodine rich kelp.

I figured that when they are finally hungry, they really hungry and right now.

COPS probably isn't going to air this one Detroit SWAT member Joseph Weekley: 'It's my gun that shot and killed a 7-year-old girl', but they was there filming.

Seems "No warming for 17 years" is pretty solid;

Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, the railroad engineer who for some reason chairs the IPCC’s climate “science” panel, has been compelled to admit there has been no global warming for 17 years.

The Hadley Centre/CRU records show no warming for 18 years (v.3) or 19 years (v.4), and the RSS satellite dataset shows no warming for 23 years (h/t to Werner Brozek for determining these values).

IPCC Railroad engineer Pachauri acknowledges ‘No warming for 17 years’

AR5 is due out soon, it's likely to be a game changer.

Most predators use a chomp and shake technique, while avoiding puncture wounds is a good thing, having a 14 foot shark shake you like a rag toy is going to spoil your day

I'm surprised you don't get our alerts, I get a lot of "Welcome Abroad" messages from AT&T when my cell jumps to a Canadian tower driving home.
