*Cugel will also fire on them, if possible.*

One issue with this is that regardless of whether we think it's a good idea, someone else might. If Chinese scientists, for example, determine that a particular use of some geoengineering technique would benefit their country and their government decides to do it, there's not much anyone else...

If I did like Starbucks at all, I would be very fortunate to live where I do: all the jokes about Starbucks across from Starbucks and Starbucks next to Starbucks and such seem to be based on my entire county. I guess that's not surprising, because they're based in Seattle. But we also have an...

Firefox, actually. :p Now now, we should call it by its proper name: Windows Internet Explorer (Not Responding).

Television? Bah, a thing of the past.

Happy birthday.The youth trust you, huh? How misguided of them.

Happy birthday!

-Carrow attacks with the Sword of Hoeth, but becomes afraid of ghosts. -Carrow slashes at the ghost, but his strike falls short. -Throg attacks, but his blade passes through the ghost without effect. -Throg snaps at a ghost, but stumbles and nearly crashes into the tomb, catching himself...

"Did I hear someone say, 'problem'? Well, it just so happens that I am in the business of solving problems! And I'm sure that if we work together, we can solve this one. But I forget my manners: I haven't even introduced myself. I am Helata. I deal in potions, herbs, magic, and, of course...

Well, that's an oversimplification though. Different compounds are trapped at different rates and the windows of time differ by depth, with most analysis on deep cores being done in a continuous rather than discrete manner. I've generally found actual researchers in climatology (as opposed to...

Well, I'd have said "Pokemon" in that case. :p But a while back I would have said "Magic." Even though I've loved the Pokemon Gameboy games since I first played them (not long after I started playing Magic, actually), I used to be a staunch detractor of the card game because I saw it as a...

*Cugel will be ready to fire on any more that come this way.*

Either one, really. This is a case where both have their advantages...

I totally read your post as coming from Train, which is apparently what happens when I try to post while simultaneously doing German homework? I either caught his name at the top of the thread or in my own imagination. One of the two.

Most successful at duping lots and lots of people into buying nearly inedible junk? Why yes. Well yeah, but I was talking about food. If it's about how much money they've made, then obviously McDonald's is #1. And Coke is #1 for the other thread. I didn't think we were talking about that...

I suppose I should add that between the two of them, Burger King is at least tolerable. I haven't been able to stand anything from McDonald's other than their soft-serve for years. Which reminds me, Dairy Queen. Also, Carl's Junior. For that matter, Jack-in-the-Box. Wendy's. Kind of odd that...

One of the little things about this game that always left me a bit happier is that Fallen Empires had such a high print run. Hymns for all.

Train... So you accept ice core data that indicates a local trend, but don't accept alignments in composition for many regionally disparate ice cores indicating global cycles (and atmospheric composition changes that match these cycles)? That's not a rhetorical question. I'm not saying that...

Also, Carl's Junior.

Yeah, I would totally play IGGy Pop or Contract Tendrils or something if I didn't have to worry about pesky opponents trying to stop me. Some players manage graveyard-based decks, but I don't think I'd go for it in this environment. Survival is a bit of an exception because when it's done...
