You might want to look at how bad France was after the Revolution. They went from the nobility (which didn't give a damn about the normal citizen) to the Terror (where Robespierre ruled with an iron fist, and killed a LOT of his fellow citizens who didn't see things the way he did.

You also have the people that rely on their religious beliefs ('Jesus will return before things get bad, so who cares?'), or think that scientists are being paid a king's ransom to lie to the public about the reality of climate change (I'd like to meet someone who isn't doing science for a corporation that is being…

Why don't we see what someone has said about your theory:

Well, it doesn't eat the blood (that we know of), but wouldn't Frostmourne be one of those types of sword? Instead of eating blood, it eats the souls of everyone that it's wielder kills. It also 'scars the soul' of the one who wields it as well.

Up until many states got Republican led legislatures back in 2010, all people needed was a voter ID card (no picture) to be able to vote. You still had to verify you were who you said you were (by showing information that showed proof of residence, like a utility bill) when you applied. And with all of the argument…

Wow, I remember having one of those as a kid too! Used to line up my sister's dolls and knock them down with the little cars.

Yeah, I had both the Cylon Raider and the Colonial Viper when I was a kid. They actually did come out with ones that wouldn't shoot the missiles soon after the one kid choked on one, but disappeared from the toy shelves about a year after that.

I had quite a few bruises on my forearm from playing with those as a kid. Probably would have been better as a bolo instead of a toy (it had the right length and weight!)

Except for the fact that the Prophets pretty much created him to be the 'savior' of the Bajorans AND the Prophets (the revelation that his mother was taken over by one of the Prophets (in the episode 'Image in the Sand') pretty much confirms it).

I'm reminded of 'The Parting of the Ways' where after Rose comments that she sees all of time, and every possibility (while under the control of Bad Wolf/Time Vortex), the Doctor comments that that is what he sees, all the time.

Doesn't anyone remember 'Journey's End'? Where they drag the Earth back through time & space and everything is a-ok when they get back (including the Moon being there to continue orbiting the Earth instead of having flown off into space when the Daleks stole the Earth?)

You can resign your commission as an officer at any time, I believe. It's only enlisted ranks that have to stay in for their full time.

The issue with the Tea Party is that they aren't anything new. They're a rebranded and repackaged John Birch Society. The group had nothing wrong with the 'wrong type' of people not being educated on things (that is, people not like them) and are better off with less people knowing how the government actually works…

You are an idiot. The problem with this is if other idiots like yourself start to get into (and hold onto) the levers of power enough that nothing changes, it might not affect myself, but it WILL affect my children and their children. They will have an Earth that will become inhospitable to human life within their…

The fact the you somehow believe that the scientists who are studying the changes in climate globally are being paid handsomely with massive grants shows how out in left field you are. I know plenty of people who rely on grants for their funding, and outside of those who deal with oil, gas, coal and nuclear, they get…

Actually, the explanation of the seashells was explained to me a few years ago.

Actually, from reading a little more about creating a 'gravity deck', it's less the size of the area than the speed at which it rotates. If it rotates too fast it can make the astronauts ill, and obviously if it rotates too slow, you don't get close to 1g.

Well, you don't even need more than a certain amount of space for creating artificial gravity (a small area which rotates and is used mainly for things such as exercise and also experiments and such that would need 1g). I doubt, however, that we'll ever see the artificial gravity that we see in Star Trek (but then…

The other issue is we have lawmakers that make the idea of a possible eruption as being next to nil, and any scientist that studies things like the Earth and Vulcanism (Volcanism?) realize that even if a volcano has been quiescent for even 100 or more years, that doesn't mean that it's going to stay that way forever.

There are quite a few people in political power that would disagree with you on that comment quiet vociferously. Like Mr. Paul "Science is lies from the pit of Hell" Broun.
