I zoomed in on my neighborhood. My question is... I live on the edge of a national park, and I see a number of dots (roughly 50) within that national park. How is that possible?

I love this idea, and I think most of you will too. Many of you are complaining about ambiance, but how many of you use your cell phones at dinner (be honest). This will enable restauranteurs to turn over a table more quickly, and have fewe

Fair enough. Let's assume they are getting $27,500,000 (adding the private loan with the federal loan) and let's assume they will repay $70,000,000 after 20 years. We still come up with an effective interest rate of 5%. Still not a bad deal

My family is all from South western VA (250+ years), I grew up in Northern VA, I still live in Northern VA. I agree with you 100% and it breaks my heart to say so. I would love nothing more than to move back down there to raise my family, b

You are proposing a Borda system. The problem with Borda is the effect of "tactical voting" which would encourage people to not vote how they truly feel, in order to obtain their desired outcome. A better method would be a selection method

you say the two possible reasons you are not making the front page are: your content is weak, or people's taste's have changed. The fact that the number of submissions has not changed suggest to me a third and more plausible option: The qua

It's not good. A few things that happen when you have a surplus of men: additional wars (when male labor is plentiful it's easier to go to war), decrease in women's rights (women become commodities), and increased demand on social safety ne
