Comment "Poor Dumb Son Of a Bitch" (Score 5, Insightful) 309

"Poor dumb son of a bitch", were the words uttered by Dorthy Parker over the casket of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald had sold out to Hollywood and, if I understand Parker's sentiment, Fitzgerald was way out of his league in the dog eat dog world of Hollywood.

Gary McKinnon is another poor dumb son of a bitch. He may well be mentally ill. There's a saying among criminals, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. I think McKinnon will get eaten alive, served up as a reminder that big brother cuts you no slack when it comes to stealing their information.

Master criminals execute plans, most convicts commit crimes. Convicts get caught up in committing a crime, they're their own drug dealers and they're junkies. Their brains serve them up a high that comes from breaking the law. Convicts fill our prisons and take their cred from the hard time they do. McKinnon is his own junkie, a convict juiced on committing a crime. His delusions will probablly cost him his life whether he gets to go on living or not.

"In the vast majority of possible temperatures it is gas or solid. So I'd say, on average, no; water is not wet."

You can't tie those two statements together to make valid conclusion. The first sentence is true, but your conclusion in the second statemetn is false. Most water on Earth is wet, so I'm not sure what kind of average you are using to say that on average water is not wet. Certainly not the mean, median, or mode if you are living on planet earth.

Are you referring to a hypothetical place where temperatures are random or where H20 temperatures are equally divided between all possible temperatures?
