@MyNameIsTooAwesome: Because China isn't really communist anymore? People buy stuff there too you know...

@Burke: The Chinese, Malays, Thais, Indians, Koreans...?

@aLynHall: Don't bundle Andy Kaufman in with those simpletons.

I simply commented on how memorable I thought Serenity was. I've never felt compelled to watch it again - I didn't feel like there was any substance to it at all. To each his own in that regard.

Why was Serenity even in this poll to begin with? It is about as memorable as X-files the Movie for god's sake?!

I think we generally agree. But I believe you may be underestimating the amount of R&D going into wind as we speak. A lot of the issues you raise are getting solved right now. This is just one example:

I agree that next-generation LFTR (Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor) is the only viable nuclear power source that we should be considering. But it still needs to be tested more thoroughly. That isn't happening unfortunately. Which is a shame.

I just typed an extremely long and thorough reply. And then FF crashed. I be jolly.

@Vexxarr: So that's why Denmark gets 20 % of it's power from wind? We're only 5,5 million people, but I wouldn't call Denmark sparsely populated or arid. What various reasons are you talking about?

@Ding-Dang: Yes! If only I had the same powers of argumentation - coupled with an acidic smirk of giant proportion! That man is a LEGEND.

But ads are just an annoying and pointless way of generating that revenue. In my opinion we are already drowning in ads - why not keep them out of public transportation, when the benefit is so low? Hell put some real art there instead - circulate it, let the users decide what to show, create positive feedback which…

Of course it does. Ads are under "Other" in the revenue section. If you dig a little deeper, you would find the Master budget with goes into greater detail. [www.mta.info]

So you take a spoken statement from an official, who is extremely vague by the way, at face value? And not only that - I've just given you official numbers that show, the ads account for almost nothing in the total budget. We are talking 1-2 cents max this could be lowering fares - and I doubt it's even that. Ads are…
