  Re: Global Warming (was: Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?)
 
(...) The determinations of temperature prior to accurate, systematic measurements by humans are derived from other environmental evidence, rather than simply noting what the thermometer said 150 years ago. I regret that I don’t have the particulars (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: May Day "riots" in London
 
(...) How can anyone debates on this one? I'm truly with you. It's a very big shame that they have Turkish origins (assuming that you are mentioning the ones painted slogans and signs on the monument of Churchill). They also protested by all kind (...)

  Re: Global Warming (was: Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?)
 
(...) Part of the objection to this scheme stems from the (currently) prohibitive expense of such launches, as well as the perceived potential for wide scattering of radioactive waste in the event of a disastrous launch. Granted, both of these (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Global Warming (was: Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?)
 
(...) Back in college, I was researching power technologies a bit for SF RPGs. I remember that there was some theoretical maximum efficiency for solar panels which I'm pretty sure was less than 50% (might have even less than 25%). It's pretty clear (...)

(...) fate (...) Cite please. I never said precisely that. What I did say is that those who catch it NOW through their own poor choices should know better. I did not make the sweeping generalization you claim. I've never said that those who get it (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?
 
(...) I'm ducking, yeah right. You have repeatedly made the statements in this thread that those who have AIDS should have known better and deserve their fate . Yet you neither acknowledge or deny my asertation of your stand. (...) Really, I'm (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  May Day "riots" in London
 
I would hope that the readers of Lugnet would join me in condeming the actions of the indiviuals who rioted in London on May 1st. Defacing a national monument (The Cenotaph) is not legitamate protest. If a group in Washington were to attack the (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Heck yeah fission is cleaner. We always seem to be worried about what to do with the spent rods - why not drop them into the sun? It's not like it's going to pollute the sun or anything, and the canisters wouldn't need much of a boost at all. I was (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
