I would think intelligence is implied when it multiplies exponentially in the atmosphere of Jupiter to collapse it into a star in 2010 and when it tried to murder the entirety of humanity in 3001.

Yeah, it’s like people forget this is a book as well. Not just one book, either. A whole fucking series of books. A whole fucking series of books that explains all these ‘theories’ away. The only one that pertains some to the film is the whole ‘Kubrick faked the moon landing’ thing.

A least it was reasonably accurate to the books, and besides Randall Flagg, had a generally excellent cast (even Dobber as a retard wasn’t too awful). 

Yay, another shitty Stephen King made for TV adaptation. Hasn’t King learned that making your best books into shitty movies and television shows is not the best way to preserve your literary legacy? If this was an HBO series, maybe. But no, it’s a fucking made for REGULAR TV mini-series. Maybe all the booze and coke…

I think you under estimate the budget for some local police departments. I would bet IMPD acquires their own soon instead of leaving the one from the ISP, and Fishers and Carmel local police departments would probably follow suit because they have more money than they know what to do with.

Too bad the fun stuff that Ronald Meyers does for the ARL and the other (allegedly) fun stuff we’ve learned to do with quantum radar and comm links will never see the light of day.

Can no one on this entire site resist shitting on this administration just once? I mean, you wanted science budget....you got science budget. Let’s also not forget that....GASP....the military actually funds a ton of science shit before someone inevitably shits on that too.

Its funny that everyone laughs at the invisibility comment, but what no one realizes is that the AFRL has been hard at work for a long time actually making that come true (to a more limited extent). If they also knew about the LPI/NPI radar and comms that are part of the F-35 program as a whole, and how those can…

Its only for Google Express purchases. Google leaves the sketchy shit off of Express, as it’s their actual marketplace and not just an ad.

It’s surely better than the giant robot dick and balls alternatives. I hear it’s fairly easy to purchase a similar nicotine salt based alternative fluid for cheap and refill a cartridge a couple of times. I think part of the high nicotine content of the Juul is to make it closer to the nicotine delivery profile of…

“Like, with a cloth?”

Juul is the closest I have found.

Nicotine isn’t added to tobacco, it’s is naturally present. Other chemicals ARE added to cigarettes to aid in releasing the bound nicotine from the leaf in greater quantities and to ensure more rapid delivery into the bloodstream.

For sure. They are pretty good on the short term though. I work in a very weather driven industry, and now is the time I check the NOAA convective outlook every morning to see where I might be headed. If the NOAA says enhanced or higher, bet your ass it will be shitty in or around that general area. The Weather…

Exactly. These programs are purposefully compartmentalized for this exact purpose. Also, some of these are probably extremely secret. Like a “need a Sigma level clearance” secret. People don’t blab too often about those types of projects because they are: A) extremely well compensated and B) Can be put to death via…

Probably because certain NASA programs are just public covers for DoD projects anyways. Funding cuts may simply be trimming redundant programs that are for defense applications directly, instead of NASA programs that are defense indirectly. The USAF is making a big stink about “Space Command” because they are afraid…

Its pretty obvious that these are ALL DoD classified aircraft. Some may be operational, some may be technology demonstrators. 22 million for some BS UFO program is a drop in the bucket when trillions have been spent in the development, flying, and hiding of these vehicles. Some of it may even be ready for prime-time.…

It would be the best thing ever if right at the end of it was a nice, low flyover of one of those amazing classified planes the DoD swears doesn’t exist.

I think the average person vastly understimates the ‘experimental’ capabilities of the US military. There are lots of other areas of research that simply vanished in a manner similar to this. For instance, what happened to all the Penn State research on light anti-matter creation/storage during the late 90's and early…

Sounds a lot like they may have actually made a breakthrough, but the DoD put the axe to it because it probably involved information derived from other highly classified projects.
