Hopefully we won't fall behind in the space race. I mean, India just put a satellite around Mars on their first try, at a fraction of what it costs our programs.
Not to mention that whole Space Shuttle gone into retirement thing.

But isn't paying more for utilities the "greenpeace" way? Look up Germany's energy costs....

As for internet: maybe if big government could stop regulating so damn much the price could come down.....

Have you ever head of a battery? We had electric automobiles long before nuclear subs.
I would have accepted first vehicle powered by something other than a chemical reaction.

My mistake - misquoted this line from Wiki: "Nuclear power had the crucial advantage in submarine propulsion because it is a zero-emission process that consumes no air."
Should have left it as first nuclear powered sub...
Again, my mistake

100% of the positive things posted were created only by white people.
The best you could do for black people was EasyE or whatever the fuck he's called.
At least have a Prince, child molester Michael or non-senile James Brown. Those are the only 3 useless Nogs ever, the other 30 million we can skip.

They were two of the worst Prezzies this country has ever had. And we voted for them TWICE, back to back. That's pretty fucking stupid.

The Right = We are great because of Scientific accomplishments as evidence that we are indeed a very intelligent country; Science is a conspiracy pushing Climate Change, Green Power, Atheism, Abortion. Dont trust scientists because they are corrupt.
Get sick - trust science. Need to prove we are smart - cite science. Want to use a computer, the internet, a phone, a microwave, a car, a plane, a train pretty much anything electronic - trust science.
Global climate data or evolution - science is obviously a racket and untrustworthy. Scientists are wrong because I dont believe it...
Yea, some of us may be smart but certainly not all of us...
