"everyone hates everyone else who makes money, until they start making money too, and then they don't want to share any of it"

"I'm not making any assumptions"

"What kind of ego does it take to truly believe that your own personal situation constitutes an accurate barometer for the rest of the country; strike that, the rest of the world? ... I really don't understand any of the negative reactions to the protests."

"i want criminal acts to be prosecuted"

"How can Samsung's legal team look any judge in the face and argue that their device didn't copy the Apple product that came before it?"

It is a big, multinational corporation. They have to have a decent profit margin, or they'd go belly up in a year. They support clinical labs, manufacturing facilities, shipping centers, CRO centers, and dozens of other smaller organizations. Only 1 in 10,000 new drugs ends up earning the profit needed to keep the…

Indeed. I am a statistician, clinical analyst, and certified CRA. I deal with this kind of stuff every day. A so-called "big pharma" company has literally hundreds of potential new drugs that it screens every year. They have to screen through all these and decide which ones get Pre-clinical trials for safety. …

Eeeeehh... It's much more intricate than that. Why is it so hard for a drug company to make a profit on a drug? There are products that are on the market that are made in quantity for much smaller markets than these specialty drugs. Are we trying to say that it is impossible to make a profit on them? Obviously…

So what if it effects 40 million people in the NY area? Why should the other 220 million people in the US have to put up with the news media's narcacisstic obsession for days on end? Irene was worth maybe ONE national news story. After that, it was 100% pure self-absorbed pandering and no-one west of Ohio or south…

Oh they're the same - and you yourself explain why. Because they take funding from the same source - which means they are politically beholden to that source the same way Fox News is beholden to its sponsors. That means they both march to the same drums, and end up having the same message.

I'm neither GOP nor Democrat. My political beliefs are strong fiscal conservatism, with a mix of libertarian on social issues. A classic bad joke pretty much sums up this baised article. "Now I'm not sayin' you gotta be a Philistine to be in the GOP...but you gotta be a freaking Philistine to be in the GOP,…

M'eh - it's a rant. It's not aimed at you. Your brain has this handy little "ignore" ability you can use when something doesn't apply. Perhaps you should use it?

Get off it you exaggerators. ANY major storm event has localized damages. Boo-freaking-hoo-hoo-hoo.

Seconded. Seriously Gizmodo - whining about INCREASED functionality? Really? What, you're luddites all of a sudden?

Hmph - all this art does is make me want to buy MORE french fries as well as a bunch of bullets. And after I've eaten all the Red Robin fries I bloody want, I'll take my 42 year old, 169 pound, 6'1", lean, well-muscled body (work out 6 days a week) and riddle Gret Slater and any other Food Nazis out there with all…

I watch Fox News sometimes. And CNN. And MSNBC. And CBS. And PBS. And Drudge. And NYT. And USA Today. And... Well - I think that point is made... There is a difference between NEWS and COMMENTARY. As far as news goes - Fox is no better or worse than any other news outlet. What people whine about is the…

Mythbusters already tested this. They found no evidence that sharks are repelled by magnets. BZZZZT! Next fake product, please?

"A person with more rights then every other person, and a person who's only goal in life is to make money, regardless of repercussions on anyone else"

Welp - the post (above) is very grossly and cursorily smoothing over some uncomfortable truths. Twitter, FB, and other social media ARE greasing the skids for these yobs and allowing them to gather rapidly in large numbers in a single location. They also allow these mobs the convenience of intelligence on the fly,…

So basically these guys are the University of East Anglia or the IPCC of the Food Nazi movement - and like the majority of Warmer alarmists can be safely ignored as a bunch of biased kooks.
