Commented on Google donates $34k to Congress, Congress does ad for YouTube
I don't think it's about the "capitalist class" in reference to "anonymous". YouTube has garnered buzz for viral videos and it just overall more popular, even after Google aquired them. So when politicians want to speak out to the serfs...
Commented on Free copies of Van Jones's "The Green Economy" -- HOWTO create sustainable green jobs
I agree with CHARLESPLATT. And to add, where do government subsidies orginate? Out of the taxpayer's pockets. So why not stop taxing all of us to death and beyond and let us save our money to retrofit our own homes....

Commented on Obama bumper-stickers for every state project now complete
@#42 - I was fully expecting it to be. I see the New Orleans abbreviated so much so that when I see "NO" that's what I think of... sheesh. Stop taking things so seriously. @#31 - I think that the...
Commented on Obama bumper-stickers for every state project now complete
Funny how anyone who doesn't support Obama on boingboing.net gets their post disemvowelled. Anywho, maybe the NObama sticker is for people who live in the New Orleans area? Some of the stickers have nice design, but some are really tacky....
Commented on Michigan GOP attacks right-to-vote for the recently foreclosed
Antinous. I did read it. Thank you. Uncle Geo. Sorry I missed your point, but I'm in agreement with you about taking our kid's future tax dollars away to pay for an idiotic war and for future occupation around the...

Commented on Sunspots don't cause global warming, people do
@#37: To say that "soil and the ocean" are the largest producers may be true, but it isn't relevant to the debate. Much of the debate over global warming is whether humans are the cause. If you say that non-human...
Commented on Sunspots don't cause global warming, people do
Another Aaron - "Most of the climate denialists are the same folks who jump on here to defend the Bush administration, the creationist museum, the TSA, and police brutality. Arguing with them is tantamount to going down to your local...
Commented on Tear-free onion engineered
A simple solution to reducing the tearing factor is to cool the onions in the freezer or refrigerator. Take them out and chop them up. Or buy a $10 food chopper. It doesn't take genetically modifying an onion, which we...
Commented on Feds plan digital spying on pigs, llamas, terrorcritters.
It's really going to hurt the small farmers and make it too expensive to make a living. One thing is a log for every time the animal leaves the "premises" it has to be logged. The small farmer will be...
Commented on What do political poster designs say?
I agree that most were nit picky comments, but some were right on target. Sometimes the simplest designs are really the hardest to conceive. But there did seem to be some obvious slant with the glorification over Hillary Clinton's design....

Shmuel commented on Google donates $34k to Congress, Congress does ad for YouTube
@25: And it's hard to get worked up about government funds spent on what is probably an intern with a standard government issue camcorder and tripod. C-SPAN spends a lot more on recording House members speaking to empty seats--and that's been done on a regular basis for decades. In fairness, C-SPAN doesn't get a dime from the government. It's a nonprofit funded by the cable companies....

skeeto commented on Google donates $34k to Congress, Congress does ad for YouTube
@#2 and #4 Shmuel, you said, "there's nothing I can see preventing somebody from swiping a Congressional video from YouTube and reposting it anywhere they feel like...". Actually, this is not permitted. The YouTube TOS, "the data is intended for real-time viewing and not intended to be copied, stored, permanently downloaded, or redistributed by the user." Ignoring YouTube's grammatical error, this makes YouTube entirely inappropriate for this. Legally you are not allowed to download and edit these videos, even though you technically can. These videos should have been put on the Internet Archive and in the public domain where anyone...
iamgeekusa commented on Sunspots don't cause global warming, people do
Geez if you just look at a 500 year temperature graph you'll note this isn't the first time earths climate has changed noticably. Not you mention no one ever talks about the earths weakening magnetic field? That could easily cause some increase in cosmic rays effecting cloud cover. And why is it you hear people wailing about global warming and then the same people will turn around and tell us we may be approaching a small ice age? WFT!...
umgrego2 commented on Free copies of Van Jones's "The Green Economy" -- HOWTO create sustainable green jobs
@#11 Charles: "Well, Frank, how about some specifics? Like, where are you, and what green technology in your part of the world "pays for itself" in the long term without subsidies? As for "double windowpanes" you seem unaware that at this time, in the US, it is pretty much impossible to buy anything else. Are you also unaware that every US water heater has its energy efficiency stated on it, on a label? Maybe fact checking would be helpful before ranting?" Want a 'green technology' that pays for itself? Here's an obvious one: recyclling aluminium. Although double window panes are...
