I like how the entire topic is focusing on putting a mirror in space so we can see ourselves 2 years in the past. Brilliant thinking people, I smell a nobel prize.

There are some Ebola cases back down here in Phoenix, AZ.  But luckily they were on the opposite side of the city.

How the hell does a large reactor on a small ship manage to explode when it was only powering five ejectors? I had a mining ship and I had it pumping out it's cargo and it just went kaboom and I almost didn't notice what happened because the armor was still intact. God dammit.

Was it connected to your base? I don't know if some other processes on your station could have overcharged it or not.

We could never be friends. I usually forget to text people for like a day or two.

Uh... most of these laws weren't passed because of Tesla. They were already in place. It's what happens when you let an industry pay lawmakers to make laws that benefit them. In this day in age, dealers are obsolete and should go the way of many other companies that just can't compete in the digital age.

They're not very good at their job either. I have yet to meet a single doctor who knows what they're doing.

Maybe you should start going to real hospitals.

many hospitals across the country have declared today that they will be refusing to help ebola patients.
the risk is far to high, to help 1 person that will likely die anyway, at least 1 nurse or doctor will catch it.
its just not worth it lol.

there are only about 4 dozen people being watched right now. if even hal;f of them had ebola, we are already twice under-prepared to deal with a lvl4 biohazard patient.

its easier to lock em up and let them die, and burn the bodies lol. thats actually the moral high ground right now.

Let's do it.

Napalm hospitals in Africa while we're at it, did no one learn anything from Pandemic?

Doctors are stupid as stuff.

I get using your expertise to try to help people in need, but what the forget kind of idiot treats ebola in Africa, boards an international flight, then lands in one of the most populous cities in the entirety of the world? Seriously, they need to stop handing out medical degrees to handicaps.

I'll buy it eventually, but I learned my lesson from 5 to not buy Civ games on launch.

All good and fun.

Socrates is someone who really interests me.  He's a mystery to me.  I think his simplicity is something to value.

Socrates was probably the most logical human being ever. If you haven't, read Plato's The Symposium and The Apology of Socrates. Both are loving fantastic, but the latter is infinitely better.

Also found the Voltaire quote that I used for my senior quote:

"A witty saying proves nothing."
