Commented on Phones confiscated at preview screenings: whose hypothetical risk is more important?
To #7 and #13: I figured my sarcasm at the end would make it obvious I was being sarcastic overall ;) I realize some batteries aren't removable and that they could just whip out a second battery...and speaking of...couldn't they...
Commented on Phones confiscated at preview screenings: whose hypothetical risk is more important?
I don't claim to be a genius or anything, but if they feel the need to confiscate something, why wouldn't they just confiscate only the battery? That way the phone and it's data are safe with it's respective owner, but...

Commented on Michael Moore: Nine Suggestions For Transforming GM
#7 That's not really what I meant, heh... I don't WANT the extinction of man, but it seems that man, as a whole, doesn't care enough about long-term sustainability, instead, doing exactly what you mentioned...they're just having a good time...

. Researchers here in Hawaii genetically altered mice to glow green in the dark. Your tax dollars at work. Guess the cats appreciate it. Do cats pay taxes? @ #40 posted by Fred H, July 31, 2009 4:56 PM ' What's a Baby Power? ' Used to be a punt or two. A baby Powers is a small whiskey, a single shot of Power's Irish Whiskey, very good and very popular in Éire, last time I was there. When Jonathan Rhys Meyers was only a gleam in his mother's eye. ....

@ Anonymous #59: The ONLY way that animals other than humans intentionally harm other animals is by way of their need for sustenance That's a remarkably ignorant statement. My roommate had a cat that regularly killed other creatures for the sheer fun of it- birds, mice, opossums, etc. Never once did it actually eat them after it was done playing. Caging another animal for life, breaking its spine with a weight, and dissecting it - all for an entirely negligible chance of advancing medical research for humans - is but another cowardly act of solipsist hubris and waste. Doing this...
The Glorious DBox commented on Blue Food Coloring Un-Paralyzes Rats
The NG article does not provide any link to peer reviewed scientific publication by the author describing the beneficial effects of the dye in reducing inflammation after spinal cord injury. Any anti-inflammatory agent would do the same job - and indeed, the wonderful IBRUPROFEN which we all use, has been earmarked for spinal cord injury treatment. If the dye produces sustained and statistically significant differences in locomotor function (improvements) long-term following spinal cord injury then I'll be convinced....
