Pretty close to a given that the IED assembler(s) are gonna be caught.

This is a sensible point of view; with one caveat. If the television series was mediocre or poorly done, there would be every reason to read the books in order to enhance once's appreciation for the story, the story-line, and the generated intensity of the overall work. Because the show's...

Tonight's episode highlights the reason why if you have not yet read the books, you should not read the books. Ignore the advice from those who would have you miss the enjoyment of enjoying a well-done television series. ----Let me repeat: ----...

Yes it helps. I have seen the light. I withdraw my previous comments and commentary. I offer my apologies to Big Phoenix, Skanda, Mrbelding, Elurin, Tuco, his retinue, ObservantBastard, mythbusters, mythbusters producers, and any reader(s) whom I may have irritated because of the posted...

I am a gentle soul. Let me help Tuco out. What is a treadmill? 2.An exercise machine, typically with a continuous belt, that allows one to walk or run in place. The essence of using a treadmill is to"...run in place." Extrapolating this to a machine(auto or airplane) the treadmill sets...

You are not my father. I dont have to do what you say.

Crap!!! Stifling discourse, and displaying insensitivity to differing knowledge paradigms tends to result in less dialogue, and less interesting dialogue. If only those with knowledge of, and foreknowledge on, a given area, topic, or subject are the sole discussants, then banality, instead...

Dear Tuco, your generosity is noted. The lavish dispensation of same may be contributing to the excess of lurkers vs posters. Whether continuation of this protocol will increase posting content, member numbers, and interested site visitors remains to be seen. This portrait should liven...

That does seem convincingly credible. I withdraw my previous moonlets hypothesis.

The plane moves past the pylons at a fairly fast speed. It should have stayed directly adjacent to the starting pylon if the make-shift treadmill was moving backward as fast as the plane was moving forward. That was not the case. Therefore that means the plane was moving forward faster...

The plane was moving forward faster than the make-shift tradmill was moving baclward.

Having no formal training in any of the Astro sciences I am at a disadvantage. However you havent confinced me. I can visualize the possibility of a common cause. However if these are just 2 coincidences it is quite coincidental. I am prepared to be wrong, however.

Morale matters.

Doing something, even if only cosmetic, dwarfs doing nothing. It offers consolation to those who have sufferred, reassurance to those who are fearful, and soothing balm to those who are concerned; false claim of vapidity notwithstanding. That you are accepting and requoting the inane drivel...

Request denied.

Success is possible if the following applies. If you are poor or middle class, and your kid is very smart, and a hard worker, and a sociable person, and is willing to obey his parents, and his parents are willing to spend the time with him or her motivating and providing encouragement for...

If you guys have such short memories. If the visual of a crazed teen-ager with a military grade rifle methodically shooting to death twenty children of ages six and seven doesnt make you cringe; doesnt give you nightmares; doesnt make you say, "something must be done"!! Even if that something...

If a moonlet is orbiting 2102DA14 it could strike us from any direction.

Revenge for what the japs did to thier people in WW2. These guys have long ancestral memories.

It is quite a coincidence to see so many notable and visible object strikes so close in time to the appearance of asteroid 2102 DA14. The possibility that theses may have been moonlets of 2102 DA14 should be given consideration.

Depends on whether you are middle class, upper middle class or rich. But that goes without saying. What doesn't go without saying though is if you want to give your kid the best chance in life, then you're talking about private schooling; and that, with its multiplicity of new demands may...

If on treadmill, no airflow over wings. Therefore, no lift. Therefore, no fly.

Yes. edit: on further reflection, my second answer is no.

The self-healing vas deferens does exist.

Even though you are correct, you need to be careful how you use that phrase orders of magnitude. It seems to rustle gavins jimmies.

That's a cop out. Anyone can claim proficiency in anything on the internet. Some posters exagerate thier abilities and capabilities for one reason or another. It is normal to be skeptical of unsubstantiated claims to such abilities and capabilities. Further, posters may be as qualified as they...

The whole world was supposed to go metric. This included the USA. USA manufaturers complained that switching would cost them money. They lobbied congress and USA dropped out of the international agreement. So blame the cheapskate US manufacturing sector.

Just stating the facts of life. Meth-addicted always drunk hillbilly, probably little worth. Neil De-grasse Tyson definitely high worth.

This may cause some unease, but it needs to be said. A human life may be a human life, but in accordance to the unwritten laws of reality some lives are worth more than others.

Category 1. Some questions should not be asked. Category 2. Some statements should not be made. In my opinion, your question fell into category 1. It seems to be peculiarly offensively intrusive. Your following statement fell into category 2. It seems to be...

You are unlikely to get reasonable people to take your posts seriously if you continue to use these types of examples. On the other hand, fana and ricesauceonoil will probably be happy to engage you on the intricacies of the examples you used. So, carry on.

Tell Neil Armstrong, Colin, and Aldrin. Tell them not to boast. My grandfather says Neil armstrong was not the first!! My grandfather knows Everything in the Universe. My grandfather says The man in the moon will cut out thier throats. What became of the man in...

Arguing about the particulars of the President's family situation is fruitless. Although technically one man, he is actually akin to an institution: the presidency. Comparisons and comments should take this into account. Replace any discussion that involves him with the term the presidency and...

The time period that the 16th century refers to is not quite the era that you think it refers to.

In this particular matter, your judgement is questionable. Regardless, I care not a whit.

I think you are being confrontational just for the sake of same. This may help: in?fer /in'f?r/ Verb Deduce or conclude (information) from evidence and reasoning rather than from explicit statements. Synonyms conclude - deduce - gather - imply - induce in?ferredin?fer?ring Also...

Re-read the post. The point of the post is that particular line of argument is stupid. In the original post there was no mention of someone specifically saying this. In follow-up discussion it was pointed out to you that Jared Bernstein tries to strongly infer that line of argument...

Stop misreading the post. Discontinue mis-construing the content. There was no specifically. There was an attempted inferance by one of the ex-advisors. Re-read the post. Ex-advisor. Jared Bernstein.
