I think we need to know exactly how this question was asked - was it part of a physics test, or a riddle, what is the context? Like the 'airplane on a conveyor belt riddle', the exact wording of the question matters a great deal. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

But, if you were also in the "not flat" space of the massive object doing the measuring, then your measuring instrument would be similarly affected. Isn't this sorta the same thing as how objects are shortened in the direction of travel if going very fast, but if you're on the object going fast, you can't tell you're shortened (same for the time and mass affects)? Only by observing in a different reference frame can the effects be measured.

It was my understanding that some places in the US, or was it Europe, had already decided not to exceed certain speeds while in pursuit. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

If there's been no decision in the lower court (summary judgement was denied), then how can one say that the SCOTUS will decide it. Even if the decision to not grant summary judgement will be appealed, how can it go directly to the SCOTUS? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

I think he would be more likely to succeed if he set a good example. Bullshit. You're an intelligent guy, so you have to recognize that making an Oscar winning documentary and running a huge PR campaign is more likely to get a message across than simply sitting at home and setting a good example. Ideally, he'd do the former WHILE setting a good example, but the truth is, if he had the most energy efficient house and transportation modes in the world, those who dislike him or disagree with his message would just find another reason to do so. Billvon sets a pretty damned good example. Gore doesn't. Which do you think has been a more effective agent for change by others? I'd wager Gore and "An Inconvenient Truth" have had the greater overall impact. Blues, Dave Bullshit. You're an intelligent guy, I agree that an in-person PR campaign is better at spreading the word than a teleconference PR campaign. However, it isn't required to get there by private jet, and leading by example (in terms of carbon footprint or however you measure it) is important when asking others to make changes/sacrifices in their lives. I don't like to use analogies , but executives of corporations are often criticized when they ask for wage concessions/make layoffs and at the same time their own pay and bonuses go way up. I think that is a very fair criticism. Otherwise, you have to accept that the executives will be more effective at changing the direction of a company if they don't have to suffer like the ordinary guy. I don't think that goes over well - doesn't get much cooperation from the lower ranks.

Because they are so busy trying to cover their ass for lawsuits, no matter what grief it causes their past and future customers, they don't even follow their own directions. However, I don't even think it accomplishes the supposed objective of covering their ass. They don't seem to be able to write a coherent communication to their customers and regulatory authorities. First, they make a statement that has no enforcible meaning (recommending the RSL not be removed), only to directly contradict that in oral communications. Then they write a detailed instruction concerning what is required to remove it, but with an important typographical error. That is really crappy customer service. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

What was the decision of the lower (first) court? It sounds as though they decided not to decide? I would think that this isn't any different in terms of the possible result (injury) than using a spike strip on a fast moving vehicle. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

If that elk lived anywhere near a road, then it should be killed in the interest of public safety. Killing an animal like that allows other male elk to have a better chance with the local female elk. Those poor, frustrated elk... People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

It is pretty simple, and already described adequately in previous posts. It would seem you find the value of leading by example to be vastly overrated. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Why? I thought you had problems with hypocritical politicians. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

The amount of sag per pair will still be low. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

To those that have this habit, please don't do it in front of a person that you are about to give the now spat-upon pages. Everyone has nasty habits I suppose, but we don't all hand off the result to others that were watching. For those afflicted with this habit, are you able to refrain if your fingers are soiled with dirt/grease/whatever? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

I wasn't being too serious. Many such boogie gear checks don't even bother to open up the reserve flap, so you'd only need the shackle and the webbing leading away from it to satisfy them. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

People can always just put the visible portions of the RSL on the rig after it is packed (not actually functioning), and then remove it after passing gear check.

If they did that, I think their sales would plummet. I think they're trying to limit the impact of their previous stupid, cover-your-ass statements on their reputation and sales. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

How is the guy's capture and prosecution related to the Repubs losing congress? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

That is perhaps the crappiest analogy you have ever offered. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Why do you think it "led" to the subsequent atrocities? It is quite reasonable to suspect hatred against their "social group". If the skin colors were reversed, that is what would be assumed. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

After getting completely fed up with being a mechanical design engineer after 18 years with aerospace and automotive OEMs, I really can't recommend it to my kids - at least not design engineering. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Because we didn't get a prenuptual agreement. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

That must be said in a Yiddish accent and preceded by, "Oiyveh (sp?)". The saddle type harnesses weren't too bad.

Oh, those poor put-upon white people! So, given that you have chosen to ridicule this incident, I'm going to preemptively say(before the next hate crime against gays hits the news)... Oh, those poor put-upon homosexuals! People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

I'm not sure what you mean by, "one side stays completely open". The "roll" type of pack jobs were standard for a long time, even for the smaller canopies of the day. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Do you mean "perpetuated" or "perpetrated". There is a significant difference. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
