What about the old standby - the tinfoil hat? It's cheap, it can be really creative, and is as effective as anything else. Plus it shows how aware one is of the dangers.

Let me take a wild guess... this information came from a web site that sells you all these materials. Duh.

I have read the introduction to the Red Pill Forum and the rationale for putting it in a separate space. As I understand it the rationale is that people who believe in, or want to discuss, the...

I think it would be cool of there was a bike lane on the side of the road all the way from the Hook and Ladder to Bodega Bay. Then you wouldn't have to be a reckless speed-demon to safely bike to the...

Dixon,

Thank you for your reply.

As for more detail about the situation, I had less than two beers. This amount of alcohol would not render me unconscious. Another couple was targeted at...

Good Morning:

This post is partly a response to several posts here at Wacco regarding the conversion of forests into grape cultivation for the production of wine. I am thinking of the Hobbs...

Sebastacat,
Nothing like a dyspeptic diatribe to get the juices flowing.

Please note that the harshest words in my comment were those that were direct quotes from your original posting.

Over the past two years, I have made no public response to Nancy Prebilich's on-going accusations and taunts directed at me but I have decided to speak publicly. Once. Think of this post as an open...

Dixon,
Thank you for taking the time to offer your opinions of my recent Science Buzz Cafe. Perhaps you missed the part where I said this was speculative while asking what if people had the ability...

It is unfortunate when snarkiness is substituted for rationality, because it discourages an open-minded examination of issues, especially issues where the truth appears to be hidden. We on the...

Lynn, You make several claims/assumptions in your argument that are unfounded.

No. Here you are just making things up out of your ignorance. As I stated in the post, the disturbing thing is that they are replacing the meter "hot". When you open an electric circuit that has...

I won't read those articles because it's pointless to attempt teaching science here on Wacco. I give up. Those headlines are not data, of course, and I can bet the articles don't contain any either....
