I second this motion.

just what passes for chocolate in America Sucks... its got no cocoa in it, how is it chocolate?

and to the original point, I've been running for president in the 2008 election since I graduated high school 17 years ago.. I've not gotten very far, but everyone loves my policies.

Anyone else remember Lamar Alexander's plan to make the federal government like the legislature in New Hampshire. the "send them home" proposal. Make Congress live and work regular job in the states they are representing. Then call them to Congress to vote on issues several times a year. put them up in housing while in DC instead of them owning / renting places. $100 a year and a keychain sounds about right to me. And in the age of teleconferences, email, and texting... its never been easier. Thats my first budget cut plan.

and everyone loves this one
legalize Marijuana, and tax it. Prohibition didn't work, and it still doesn't. Legalize and regulate it.

thats about it... that and 4 Billion $ should get me elected... well except for the religious right who will hate the idea that I want God off my lawn, and out of public policy.

Chocolate in the US is like beer. If you go for the cheap, popular stuff, you're going to be disappointed. That said, for something to be labeled as "chocolate", it has to have a certain percentage of cocoa: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/script...fm?CFRPart=163

Also, how did you pick the first 15 Amendments as okay, but the rest are going to be re-examined? And WTF does an amendment have to do to comply with the "virgin" Constitution? The document was designed to be amended, and it has...those latter amendments are part of the Constitution, period, unless you're somehow arguing that they weren't procedurally proper?

No, I'm arguing that all 3 branches of government were duped into approving the 16th amendment. Furthermore, I'm arguing that the 16th amendment is currently being used to fund programs that when mentioned to the president, you're supposed to reply with "mr president, no such program exists."

And grow your own damn chickens.

I can't help with the chocolate stuff. Talk to the better business burrow. 16 minutes outside of queens.

Better business in a hole. ^_^ Kinda like putting 'complaint department' sign on top of the shredder.

Oh C.D., I don't want to even start talking about beer.

Interesting page and discussion here:

Sounds like pseudo-science to me.

You don't need anti-gravity hocus-pocus to build a space elevator, anyway. You need some very fancy control systems to hold the modules in alignment.

A number of related concepts are linked here:

Its not hocus-pocus, my friend. If you read the patent to the B-2 stealth bomber you will see that the leading edge of the aircraft is polarized positively, and the exhaust plume is ionized negatively.

I suggest you read this book: http://www.amazon.com/Electrograviti...7439541&sr=1-1

And also electrogravitics systems I.

Not many people know about this technology, but as it is used in the B-2, it allows up to 60% efficiency of the energy used to propel the aircraft. You may wonder where your tax dollars go, well, this is where it goes. Its sad really, because this technology used in commercial airliners would dramatically cut down fuel costs.

HooooRAY BEER!

I think he meant suds.. like as in BEER! HooooRAY BEER!

Mentholated has some interesting points on propulsion methods that as he has pointed out.. ain't hocus-pocus.

Now that the stem-cell issue is licked and the human genomic map is developing.. and LORD KNOWS I'm gonna need some drain cells replaced in 10 years or so.. maybe a liver too.

Anyway the propulsion methods in development are nothing like we (most of us) can comprehend, the B2 is an old example and serves different purposes. Boeing is getting close in the commercial market. If Virgin were to ally with Boeing, we'll see some pretty increadible stuff in our lifetime..

Home school? How about just better schools.. with REAL resources? Even better - teachers that know HOW to USE the resources! There are schools I work around ALL the time with increadible resources; hell, you can start with a, umm, you know... librarian? Instead of that Wiki-thingia. We're building some increadible publics schools with wonderful teachers and resources. The teachers are great - but the tech is ahead of them. There are some good young teachers coming up in the ranks.. I work with a lot of them.. helping build cred.. they get it.. but the PAY SUCKS.

Anyway.. digression.. as a country we need to develop from our kids up. 'NUFF SAID..

Oh and..

HooooRAY BEER!

AHAHAHAHA.

Look at the reviews for the book... then look at the author. ROFL.

Interesting and scientific explanation of the electrokinetic force which also predicts why and how most electrogravitic devices will move. The historical articles are also intriguing, besides the testimonials. More compelling and convincing than first book in the series - Electrogravitics Systems. Maybe the discovery of pulsed electrokinetics will now be declassified as a result of the publication of this book.

Anyway, it's junk. You can quote me on that too.

Sounds more like a cult than science...

Wait a minute...That's been done before. Can't place my finge- SCIENTOLOGY.

That sounds utterly scary. It might end up killing people in the long run. (which actually may not be a bad thing

)

Do some research on the subject and then your opinion will be noted.
