While I do agree with you that many (possibly even most) people who use marijuana for medical purposes are full of it, and are just looking to be able to get high without getting arrested, there is quite a large body of research supporting the benefits of marijuana. Truth be told, marijuana is FAR better for you, and…

I have asthma (exercise induced), and sometimes when I've been running, I go through a bit of oxygen deprivation. I can see how everything would be funny, though I'm usually have a lot of chest pain so I have trouble enjoying the somewhat drunken feeling.

You took my thoughts and put them together in words that I couldn't find. Thank you.

I'll just leave this here

Wait, is that an amino acid sequence, or a cheat code?

Nonsense! Just because they don't exist - or, in this case, has insufficient evidence to support the hypothesis of their existence - doesn't mean you should be ignorant of the geographical origin of the particular myth. Think of it this way: if he had said, "Like Zeus in South America" or "Like Yahweh atop Mount…

You should try the Dev Preview before you pass judgement. I'm still waiting to pass judgement, and I've been using it on and off since it was available. It's new, and completely unfamiliar at first. But there's nothing in it that DOESN'T make sense, and a lot of it makes more sense than Win 7.

I believe they just get suspended, but if you actually want to kill the app completely, you can do it through task manager which is still accessed via the good ol' CTRL+ALT+DEL.

It is Samsung. The article said, "which Korean manufacturer (that...is not LG or HTC)" Which carries the implication that HTC is Korean. they're not. They're Taiwanese.

I think you're completely nuts. I switched back from OS X to Windows (last time I had Windows was when Vista was still Longhorn), and I was terribly worried that I would hate it and have to Hackintosh my laptop or run Ubuntu. My worries were completely unfounded. Really, in almost everything, Windows 7 is no worse…

FYI, HTC isn't Korean. They're Taiwanese.

So the gender differences in learning articles are all on adults, not children. I did do a Google Scholar search before. The problem with looking at adults is that it could very easily be a conditioned response based on our cultural expectations. Essentially, we convince boys that they should learn a certain way, and…

T-Mo wasn't in a position to innovate? Then why do they have a FAR faster HSPA+ network than AT&T? Why do they ALWAYS have better phones than AT&T?

I feel like you're drawing some interesting gender lines there, that - quite honestly - I don't think exist. The only study I can find that addresses it ( [onlinelibrary.wiley.com] ) seems to not find any strong link between gender and learning styles. Once you've broken it down into style, there is some gender…

Oh, of course. I guess I'm just a little defensive of my city. We get bashed a lot - often for good reason - so when I feel like we've been slighted for something that's slightly misleading, I gotta stick up for it.

So that's only talking about Salt Lake City itself, which covers about 12 sq miles, and is largely urban business. SLC isn't one of those cities that has a dense core population. We don't have real apartment towers or anything like that. The most dense population area is right around the U of U, I believe, and that's…

I haven't yet because I want a DVR. It doesn't have one, and I don't want to buy two new boxes. If they decide to start competing with TiVo, and put it in a DVR (besides the Dish Network one, as I don't have Dish Network), I'll be all upons.

Oh, it's bad on Mac too. Not quite AS bad as on PC, but it's certainly no prize peach on Apple's OS either. The worst thing on OS X is that there's not really a good alternative either. The closest would be Songbird, but it was actually probably worse than iTunes.

I'm a moral relativist. I accept that morals are simply a way of making society work. So I accept societal definitions of certain words like "child." 18 was a bit of an arbitrary choice, but it has seemed to work out fairly well.
