That seems like ranting for rants sake. I didn't see anything in the article saying the demonstrator vehicles were less safe than traditional Humvees, but you seem to be assuming (without any evidence that I can see) that these changes are inherently less safe. Low-rolling resistance tires save 7% on fuel, apparently,…

Yeah, that was my impression, too. If you were expecting a good movie, you might pay to see it (theater, DVD, blu-ray, rental, whatever), but if you know it's going to be bad but full of explosions (like Fast Five), then it's worth "free." I guess.

I like you.

So you're OCD-like. You should just pay cash before you pump and not worry about it. Easier on the mind.

iOS does let you copy part of a message. You just hold down on the text, then when the magnifying glass appears, let go. A dialogue will appear that lets you select, select all, copy, etc. Usually it's only highlighting one word, so hit select, then the selection mask will have blue dots on the top left and bottom…

No, we're not adding baggage. We're just recognizing that "wrong" has distinct definitions. Like "appropriate." It means something is suitable and proper, it also means to take something from someone for your own use, and it can also mean to devote money to a cause. But if you said, "Your outfit is appropriate," you…

Your dictionary has, as the definition of "wrong," "something wrong?" Seriously? I mean, definition 2 works great if they just went with, "Something immoral or unethical."

You're using two different definitions of "wrong." Wrongdoing implies a moral wrong, like theft (indeed, my dictionary defines it as "illegal or immoral behavior"). An accident is not morally wrong, even if it's factually wrong. If the dealership had made a moral error then I'd agree they should be held to a high…

That was my first thought. You don't counter with the same price... that's not a counter offer. "Giuffre says he thinks the dealership realized they shouldn't sell the car for that price and quickly changed their mind." Giuffre is either an idiot or an opportunist. I'm not comfortable rewarding either.

The 4S may not be the best iPhone to compare, though, since it's having a battery issue (although I can say my 4S lasts me through a whole day and then some - if I plug in at night I usually have about 50% battery left, after a full day at work). My original SGS would make it through the day, but have about 20% by the…

Well, you'd have to diagnose people retrospectively. PTSD didn't exist as a diagnosis until the 1970s, although if you include the diagnosis of combat exhaustion then some reports peg the rate at about 10% between 1942 and 1945 - and that's without the diagnostic criteria and tools we have now. Currently we see rates…

I have hearted you, because you bring me joy. I must complain, however, about your grammar and word usage. It's not that you did anything wrong, I just feel you should have used other words that are more like the words I use.

Will never happen, but can you imagine being charged with 150 million counts of unlawful surveillance (one for each handset they admit the software is on)?

I'm not sure who you're arguing with. I've already agreed with you. I never suggested treating only the physiological symptoms (and said specifically in my last response that treating both at the same time was often the most effective option). I have no interest in arguing the point, though, because we have no…

If you click on my name and read some of my other comments on this article you'll see I agree with you regarding the efficacy of this treatment. It seems like symptom management, rather than a cure. I simply disagree that PTSD is "completely psychological"... because there are a number of physiological changes…

You have a $250 toaster? I have a $50 toaster oven, and it was about $20 more than I figured it was worth, but the width was just right for my available counter top.

"in 2007, bandits removed a section of a wall"

Yes, but sometimes people make jokes, see, and jokes aren't supposed to be taken literally.

That's really cool... I just have never used a dock... but if I did it would totally be worth $59 to get in on the ground floor.

But it's not almost completely psychological - your post is a perfect example. Long-term stress causes all sorts of physiological changes from inhibiting BDNF (which may be why people with PTSD have more memory problems than controls and some studies have found decreased hippocampal volumes) to immune suppression.
