Greg, I am not so much defending Bush. I was just trying to point out just how long it takes to get agents truly up to speed. Oh sure, they can learn the "basics" fairly quickly, but, learning a "target" to the point where your "gut" knows what is up takes years of work, starting from the...

I have never tried them there. I get them homemade so I kinda don't look for them on the menu when I do go there. I will have to make a point to check them out next time. Thanks Rocket!!

We are at the Baytown, TX, TA. I know, it sucks, but here we are. On the up side as of right now we are the only FedEx "D" unit checked in!! It is cooling down with a cold wind blowing. Not as cold as up north but cold. It it sunny. We are going to hook up to IdleAire this evening, assuming no...

Check out this page, simple kids experiment to explain the difference between floating ice vs. land ice and the relationship to rising ocean levels. POLAR-PALOOZA - Differential Effects of Melting Ice Sheets

Only if they came off of land. Like that big self that broke off of Anarctica, that was already floating ice, not land based ice. It broke loose. Why? Many theories out there. One of theme is warming. One of them says that the Antartic glacier fields are growing faster than normal. That would...

The Greenland ice is land ice, not sea ice. Check again, floating ice has already displaced all the water it is going too. Melting 100% of floating sea ice will not raise ocean levels. Melting land ice will. Much of the ice is growing, not melting.

Check that again, I said "sea ice" not contental ice. Trick question.

Much of the Northern Hemisphere tundra was not covered in perma-frost as little as 10,000 years ago. These things have been warming and cooling ever since the earth was formed. Nothing new under the sun. Why is the sea ice melting? It is far below freezing. Have ocean currents shifted a bit...

I don't know how to work Facebook. I logged on a few times but it seems silly to me. I support our troops though.

Wingnut likes to eat too you know!!! :D

Bush had not been in long enough. Bush had taken over from Clinton. We had 8 years of Clinton destroying the intell/military services. When my job was eleminated I was working counter-terrorism. That was the first intell program cut back or closed. It takes 15 years of work and training to get...

Nope, it don't make sense. No proof the climate is warming, cooling or what. We have not even begun to look at it long enough to know that. Some Glaciers are melting, some are growing. One of the leading hurricane experts, Dr. Jonas Grey, U of Colorado, the "go to" guy on hurricanes for 30 years...

LOL!! Glad to see that it is taking hold!!! You can add the current Dumb-O-Crat governor from Colorado. Now, if we can just get rid of all of those bums, ah, what a pretty dream.

First off, it is impossible to stop 100% of those kinds of attacks. It cannot be done. Having said that, we are far from doing what is needed. Here is what Obama needs to hear: Hey Barry, wake up!! This is a world war, our enemy intends to win, no matter how long it takes. You need to start...

All systemic problems in any organization start at the top. You can have the odd issue once in a while but when they seem to never end and it is always the same thing, look at the top. Obama has a total disrespect of the military and the intell services. To him they are at best an evil that he...

Don't forget the muskrat stew!!!

It seems to me that I have been saying that in here for almost two years now. We the People have allowed this to happen. It is 100% our fault and only we can fix it. Our elected scum can get away with the stuff they do because we just keep on re-electing them every year, without question. I...

I would like to see Rand-McNally put out the Truckers Atlas in software form. Then I could use it on my laptop. I did email them on the subject but they never got back to me. :(

Congrats!! Not bad for a Old .......................!! :p

If we turned all that sand into glass it would reflect the sun's heat back out into space and counter-act global warming!! That should be a real priority as warm as this winter has been so far!! :rolleyes: Pretty cold considering it is an El Nino year.
