I honestly don’t have a problem with this remote. It’s not symmetrical, it’s almost symmetrical. The position of the volume button is a dead giveaway as to which end is up.

Anime had been a part of the popular consciousness in America for longer that that- half a century by my estimate. In the 60s, there was Astro Boy and Speed Racer (also made into a feature film). In the 70s, it was Star Blazers and Battle of the Planets. In the 80s, it was Robotech and Voltron. These weren’t niche…

No Return of the Jedi?

I understand your anger, but it’s misdirected. I’d love more than anything for it to be true, but wanting it to be true doesn’t make it a story.

Pardon me, but I don’t have a favorite fan. Please don’t presume that I do. Thank you.

There was an app?

Reminds me of “Sunrise Earth”:

Yeah, that’s kind of my point. There are alternatives, but there’s no major competitor for Office. These are minor players that don’t present a real alternative to Office. There’s no Android to compete with iOS in this case.

Well, this is my point, really. You like Office, I don’t care for it. That’s fine. If this is the solution for you, then more power to you.

It continuously amazes me that Microsoft Office is still the only game in town. From an end-user experience, the product has never been very good. Sure, they’ve made improvements, but the workflow has never been fantastic. It’s a mediocre user experience and I have no idea why someone else doesn’t have a competing…

Duh.

He does realize that this is just a big invitation for someone to do it again?

I thought it was great. I loved Jon Stewart, but it’s great to infuse the show with new blood. I’ll tune in tomorrow (you know, when tonight’s show is on Hulu).

Don’t mince words, Albert. Tell us how you really feel.

Personally, I'd go with telekinesis for the simple reason that it can be the basis of other powers- such as flying. If you can use your mind to throw a Buick, why not yourself?

True, but I think you are taking the Earth's stability for granted. The solar year and solar cycles that you mention are regular celestial events that can be accurately measured and predicted. If Westeros has an eccentric orbit or wobbly tilt as the article suggests, then that regularity wouldn't exist, and using…

Well, that's partially true. We currently measure years by the Earth's orbit around the sun. However, before our "ancients" discovered astronomy, they measured time based on more down-to-earth methods. For instance, time was based on growing crops- when to plant, when to harvest, etc.

This plan is pointless. The Earth's core will have cooled long before any of this is even a concern. Without a molten iron core spinning around the center of the planet, the Earth will cease to have a magnetic field. No magnetic field, no protection from solar radiation. The Earth gets roasted anyway.

If memory serves, Gordon Gekko was the antagonist in Wall Street. Just saying.

"Plus, take a look at America now, many are living like peasants. The middle class is shrinking, many moving into poverty levels. And the poorer are getting poorer."
