And you are acting like you have an ounce of moral superiority because you are content with letting people sit there twiddling their thumbs, while waiting for somebody to actually do something.

Again, I am not saying that it was safe. But waiting for a few more decades while the rest of the planet quickly approaches the point of no return is even more unforgivably stupid. According to IEA we are within 5 years of the point where we won't be able to stop global climate change. Considering economic…

Ah, got it. I've heard the theory that Gotham was based on New York or New Jersey, in which case it wouldn't have the death penalty, but this makes it easier.

Ah, OK - I heard the theory that since Gotham is based on New Jersey or New York, it doesn't have the death penalty. This makes it easier. The next step is special circumstances that need to be taken to clean up the city of the especially persistent brand of mass murdering lunatics.

What's DP?

You are absolutely right - I haven't thought about it like that. Ollie's Batman approach to criminals works only if everyone gets the same treatment. Batman lets everyone live, doesn't kill anyone, but is perfectly willing to rough up the help just as much as their bosses. Arrow on the other hand tries to…

Sounds awesome. As long as they make it open-world, like Witcher 1, and not a closed-in environment as Witcher 2. And remove as many QTEs as possible.

Don't kid yourself. The planet will survive.

I never said that it is safe, or that it would work, or that there weren't any more preliminary steps that should have been taken trying this. However, it sounds to me like there has been relatively little work done on the subject, and time is rapidly running out. For individual marine species, for everything tied…

At least someone has tried it. Frankly I think this is one of the few options left for the planet. I don't see conservation or anything else having any effect on the ocean, atmosphere, climate change, etc. It is too profitable to pollute, and there are too many countries perfectly willing to continue doing so. US…

President Laura Roslin is capable of some pretty questionable decisions, not to mention actual ethical lapses, and yet we never stop sympathizing with her and rooting for her.

I'd still like them to give us some insight into what's actually happening in Pakistan, and what the political fallout is in the US, but maybe that's yet to come.

You can't have it both ways

Jingoism. Militaristic nationalism. Whenever a president starts a war that sort-of looks like he is protecting the country, the people rally around him and his popularity soars. Look at what happened with Bush after 9/11.

Yup, agreed on all accounts. My only comment is that we know something about the nuking. Mainly from what we heard in the background while the rest of the action was going on.

For a time travel show this ending is so dum-dum-dum-dumb! Not to mention stolen from Back to the Future. And dumb. Doc Brown at least had an excuse - there was only one time machine and it was broken. The Doctor doesn't have such an excuse.

Yup, these things are awesome. I saw one in the Tokyo modern science museum - it was very cool to see the background radiation and cosmic rays. You can even see the difference between alpha and beta particles. I am definitely going to try this trick.

This is not MY definition - this is the working definition used by educators, social workers and the semi-literate that are involved in adult literacy programs in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee. Functionally illiterate people can't tech themselves new words. Literate people can.

Wait, comment about prosthesis was wrong. I was thinking of Anakin's hand, and forgot about Luke's.

Anyone who can sound out words and increase their own vocabulary can become very well read.
