'Who's Your Daddy?' Van Offers DNA Tests

Will be interesting to see what happens when testing becomes the cost of a fast food meal and can be completed in about that amount of time, especially since some of those estimated percentages of men not being the biological father of their child are shockingly high.

Why are women so unreliable?

Cool, so they can start bearing some of that crushing responsibility that men have for centuries? I see no downside with this, however, I think most women will soon realize what they got is not exactly what they wanted.

Have you had an MRI?

MRI doesn't use (ionizing) radiation. It uses magnets to align protons to get the image iirc from ochem.

Future power sources for the US

The beauty of the free market. When people start seeing nuclear engineers and technicians making 150, 200, 250k+ due to market demand, well guess what those people will do? In fact, you could increase that effect further by having the govt subsidize the education of anyone who goes to school...

3d solar cell successfully manufactured

Yep. I don't even know what the 800+ billion was spent on. I mean, it seems to me when you're spending so much money there should have been some noticeable benefits. They should have done as you said but also lit the entire country up with fiber. Anywhere that has power lines, congratulations...

For those who receive public assistance

And yet people do it all the time when moving from one job to another, and they don't even have the extra incentive of working a manual labor job most of the time. If that were true, we'd have less people on welfare than we do now, and we wouldn't have people abusing things like food stamps...

For those who receive public assistance

you don't think hard labor provides incentive to not be on welfare? I think that would be one of the only things that get people off of it. Got a job interview? Ask your hard labor supervisor for the afternoon off. Do education online/at night/on weekends.

Did Howard Stern "kill" Dana Plato ?

She HAD to turn to porn? HAD? No, she chose the easy way to make money.

Hurricane computer models

I think I once read that an zettaflop supercomputer would be able to fully model weather for the planet for a 2 week time span. Only a couple of more decades to go.

Virginia Tech gun supplier goes out of business.

Why is this a story? The gunman could have bought the gun from anywhere, probably even walmart. The owner doesn't hold any responsibility, period.

Rep Polis (CO) makes DEA Chief look dumber than a box of rocks

Yes, generally speaking. Why else would they be illegal? You'll see all sorts of propoganda that MJ is worse than tobacco/alcohol when in reality it's not worse and more likely less so. Though, if you have another reason why MJ should be justified as illegal, I'd love to hear it. To which he...
