Many of us find most of your list disturbing as is. So we certainly don't use it as evidence that we'd like it to grow longer.

Funny how the institute was founded to show how big an idiot George W Bush was. And what really for?

It would be nice for him to stick to topics he's an expert in. Though considering he's a "word" guy, he does know how to manipulate language to achieve his goals.

"We" now and "we" ten thousand years from now are very different people. Those in the future will laugh at your concerns for them. It's as if ancient Egyptians would worry about whether we, now, have enough flood pl

He was wrong, since the Manhattan project was and is still celebrated as a great achievement. Hiroshima is considered a regrettable necessity. Anyone willing to read about fire bombing of cities before the A-bomb would consider it a reasona

I'm concerned about the starving people in sub Saharan Africa. It would still be inappropriate for me to constantly spam you about it, regardless of how hungry they are.

That's probably because when those reps were in high school, they were told that by now entire cities would be under water and storms would rule the world. It didn't happen because the panic is much more intense than the reality.

Like cars, soon all the websites will look nearly identical. Building your own, your choice will be the background color to use and one of a number of approved fonts you can select from. Cars have regulations about the size, color, brightne

In my experience, the people that latch onto self help gurus, preachers of weird beliefs, and peddlers of odd lifestyles, are usually graduates of college. They were taught to be skeptics by how education is done now. So they reject traditi

It is basically illegal by federal law to test potential employees for their overall intelligence. It is considered racist, the term being 'adverse impact' in this case. Corporations effectively outsource intelligence testing to c

It's not a technological achievement. It's a political one, as the middle class gets to subsidize the autopilot of the upper class, while the upper class gets to feel smug as though it's saving the world.

It's probably irrelevant how good public transport is. It's more about the higher ups of society that are living in the city center not wanting their space being taken up by the bridge and tunnel crowd.

You should see how much crap Americans like to bring with them to kids baseball games, camping, etc. Sedans can't hold it all and vans are not cool. SUVs and trucks fit the American lifestyle.

No, it's because they're roomy inside, safer to drive, and when you needthe storage it's there.

I spoke to one such mom, asking her why she doesn't do Uber or Lyft instead, and she said because kids make a mess in the car and she can't clean it every time before taking passengers.

Can you help clarify why so many of these young homeless with dogs also prefer camo as their clothing color of choice?

The solution from Tim Hortons point of view would be to stop putting their name on disposable coffee cups.

I don't find it damning. You are the one that does. But would you mind answering my question please?

Would you be providing similar context if The Nation or Huffington Post would be the source? What about New York Times or CNN?
