I've never heard about this. How do humidity and elevation affect plasmas differently from LCDs?
I am not sure, but someone told me it affected the picture quality. I can confirm this with my experience with a Plasma TV the US Navy had installed in our barracks. The picture quality was so piss poor during the summer that it made it numbing to watch TV. The picture quality increased when it was cooler and less humidity. Here is some information about Plasma TV's and Altitude
I like the look of plasma over LCD but sadly, it seems LCD is winning out.
Plasma's are fine and dandy for high elevation low humidity areas like the mountains, however, LCD is the perfect fit for lower high humidity areas like the southeastern portion of the USA. I am still glad I bought my LCD tv, and not a plasma. I have heard multiple complaints from people I work with that have Plasma's on how crappy their dvd's and blu-rays look. They even went as far as buying another TV in LCD format and they are amazed at the picture quality improvement both in high action scenes and steady ones. However, you go back west its another story with the Plasma's.
unfortunately the argument of "Either you are with us or you are against us." is still 100% Valid. You either support terrorism and the acts that terrorists do, or you do not support terrorism, and you want to do anything within means and power to abolish the fear that terrorism instills. the "you are with us or against us". Also tends to imply "If you don't support the measures we advocate against terrorists then you must be supporting terrorism".
We need more people out there that support any measures that need to be taken to thwart a tragedy, and stop thinking that a peaceful talk and negotiations will help avoid an attack, because it wont. Case in point is Japan during WW2.
And maybe that's why Europe and Asia has a long history of despotic strongmen. Order over freedom tends to get that for you.
As opposed to our *recent* history of them, of course. Fortunately, those of us in the U.S. are about to get rid of our despotic strongmen, along about January 20 of next year. No more of the "You better watch what you say," or "Anyone against us is unpatriotic" type of people. Mindless jingoism doesn't look good no matter what country you're from.

Now that we have a defacto state of a dictatorship in the US Iam more fearful then I was under the Bush Administration. I am worried that all the efforts of the last 8 years will be completely washed down the drain, and another more serious attack will instill, because of our lack of a defense system and the policies under which now make it easier to thwart a terrorist attack much like those that were planned to drop transatlantic flights over the Atlantic into the Atlantic Ocean and kill hundreds of people. I hope to God Biden wasn't right in the testing of Obama, because if he was then we need to beef up our defense posture even more and be more vigilante and leave no rug unturned sort of speak. We must continue to investigate all leads even if they seem ridiculous.
