    Skynet logo is reminiscent of the Palestinian flag.

    True. What I did not realize was the staged photo was actually submitted as evidence.

    I've been saying this for a long time. And our Fat Man of a governor will be just as useless. It was broadcasters Mike Wallace and Dan Rather being jostled at the convention, the latter of whom prompted Walter Cronkite on live television to denounce the floor managers as “a bunch of thugs.” That's not going to happen because our supplicant, supine, tongue-licking press will be shown the red carpet.

    80 hp from a 43 ci ice? That would be pretty incredible.

    We need a good war. With as much mechanization as we have, I think the first draft call-ups should be 40 year-old women. Place them in Amazon Battalions. Those that don't die quickly, might forget about their damn privilege. Trying to stay alive will do that for you.

    Discharge fast enough and you'd call it an explosion. @Doctor-Phibes think of it as job security.

    If you haven't used these, they're good. The Hercules line is good, too. https://www.harborfreight.com/icon-hand-tools HF ain't just junk anymore.

    Interesting. Also interesting to read about the "non war" part of things. Custer’s appearance instantly attracted attention—as he intended. A staff officer described him as “one of the funniest looking beings you ever saw, and looks like a circus rider gone mad! He wears a huzzar jacket and tight trousers, of faded black velvet trimmed with tarnished gold lace.” Not to mention a red cravat. THe things they wore, the equipment, the conditions that were normal for them, etc.

    @Jolly said in "Scientific" American: Any damn fool can do mass spec. And computers do the analysis now. I vote for rap... I think you may be underestimating the incompetence of humans. My brother is an engineer doing field service and repairs on mass-specs, and he has a few stories.

    @Jolly said in Family tree discovery: Yeah, but I still like the dog. I love that painting. It hung in my parents house for about 40 years, and I managed to get it when we divvied up all the stuff.
