great to recreate a horse ... but engineering is NOT bound by natural selection ... why not innovate? perhaps it's a fundamental issue with how engineers think?

LOL ... when you can talk science get back to me.

Snowden should be happy as the funding (success) rates are much better in Russia than the US. LOL at you for dragging Snowden into a science argument. Take a break from FOX "news."

As a person who travels a fair bit and have lived in many different countries including Japan (but now resides in Europe) ... I can assure you that it's the behaviour in the US that would get the rest of the planet thrown in the wacky shack. Please stay where you are ...

was is this?

I'm very interested in hearing about the natural antibiotics. Can you please describe some general background about how you became interested in the project and what happened to the project?

I ride my bike to pick up my groceries like most sane people.

so I find it quite comfortable in Germany. In fact, I'll probably add another academic title quite soon. I just wish that my American passport would list the titles as it can cause some confusion when traveling (Passport and Credit Cards don't always match in the computer).

this should bring you up to speed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_rating_by_country

Germany for sure. Most of Northern Europe as other examples. You guys aren't even AAA anymore ... lol

exporting does *not* equal maintaining a presence somewhere else. it's also not a sustainable business model. i wish you the best of luck (not really)

I like it a lot. AJE + RT + euronews + BBCi + CNNi + N24 = reasonable approximation of both sides.

It makes fiscal sense not to provoke the DPRK. the US is essentially bankrupt and can't be spending money to occupy a third country (Afghanistan, Iraq and DPRK). Personally, I'd like to see the US slide further down the economic slippery slope (hello from Germany) but it really doesn't make long-term fiscal sense ... not that it has ever stopped the US before.

I get great location and public transport. You get a McMansion in the countryside ... lol ... probably in the Mid-West ... lol^2
