Same here. But when I edited the URL to include my hometown, of which there are 3 places sharing the same name, the inclusion of a zip code returned the correct map.

At first, I thought that the address indicated what Google assumed was my geographic location, but a quick search returned, "The Zeitgeist Bar" in San Francisco.

Regarding India's sewage issue, I wondered why feces isn't used in a methane digestor, or as fertilizer?

That's a good point, regarding whether, or not, FB actually deletes user data after we "opt out." Another consideration is how, when Facebook started out, users were supposed to actually know, IRL, the people on their "Friends List." I adhe

There's always the option to delete your FB account. I went nearly 10 months without logging into FB last year, and doing so made it quite easy to delete my FB account at the beginning of this year. Regular removal of cookies, and LSO cooki

In the early 1980's, while serving in the US Army, we sang some rather explicit cadence calls, and this practice was curtailed by the increasing presence of females in the ranks. Stomp with the left and drag your right!" SKULL FUCKIN!

There's an old Irish pastime of insulting someone to their face without resorting to blatant profanity, and if you've ever heard it you might reconsider your position.

I grew up during the 60's and 70's, when words such as "ass," "bitch," and the like, were absolutely forbidden by my parents as well as by their peers. Today profanity is much more widely accepted, as evidenced by mainstream media's lesseni

I am in no way claiming inclusion to "some imaginary high status group" and I regularly commit grammatical errors which the truly and highly educated will readily recognize. Your premise of exclusion ignores the fact that my post above co

Had I used the word "they" in place of "such individuals," then Avashalom's inference regarding my creation of a dichotomy would be valid. By using the term "such individuals" I have not excluded myself from said group.

When I hear people using curse words regularly I form the opinion that such individuals lack the eloquence to express themselves without resorting to profanity. Thus I hold these people in low regard, as I highly value literacy, and most ed

Arguably, the internet did exist in 1987, although not the same as the net we know today. http://www.nethistory.info/History%20of%20the%20Internet/ori... Kudos to Mr Santos for his efforts at turning a new leaf in life, and I've also no

What a terrible article... If the data sets do not match then there is no redundancy. The Unix command line has a wonderful tool called "diff," which compares files line by line. Or, there's Git, which is even better. What I'm getting at is

Of course the author preformed daily backups to removable media and other cloud based services? Let this be a lesson. Data redundancy is important!

Nice pictures, but... It's so much more awesome to view an eruption in person. Especially when the lava fountains are visible from 25+ miles away. Standing nearby a 1500 foot lava fountain is truly a humbling experience. (Kilauea)

A two year study can hardly be considered to be definitive. I wonder what the results would be for a 20 year study? Also, my state is one of those which spends the least on education, so my views are probably skewed as a result.

"We the People" don't actually vote for the President, this is reserved for the "Electoral College." The only "people" who "vote with their money" are the corporate interests, as most of us are far too poor to do to so. I highly doubt that
