Yup, the R&D costs have to be recovered somehow. But even when drugs get to the generic stage, there are sill more costs involved other than the active ingredients. There's a reason that a grilled cheese sandwich costs more than about 30 cents.

Telling someone what they can and cannot do with their own body is a moral outrage. You can justify it any way you like, but it won't be any less of an outrage. And I'm not even for abortion. Abortion is just awful. I've actually talked one person out of getting one. That was 10 years ago...

Biggest infrastructure investment? Really? What percentage of the Stimulus Package is for infrastructure? Anyone?... Beuller?... Bueller?

The more aerodynamic things at the front, the more aerodynamic resistance (drag) you will have at the rear. Airtabs at the trailing edges of openings, like at the rear of the cab/sleeper/trailer, rooftop air conditioners, toolboxes, the cargo box, etc., will minimize or eliminate the drag...

I've had mine in one already. There's a wind tunnel at the college at home. Spent the better part of two days in there playing with it. Well, I mostly watched, they played.

Alfred Hitchсoсk should have been there. That would have taught those kids a lesson.

From Sun Tzu's The Art of War, "Know thine enemy better than one knows thyself." In order to understand this enemy at all, one must have a thorough knowledge of Islam, and of what it means to be a Muslim within Islam, for they are not the same. Only then will you begin to understand how the...

I'd be interested in the physics of Airtabs reducing drag at the nose of a Sprinter for any kind of increase in fuel mileage. The aerodynamics of Airtabs actually increase air resistance wherever they are placed because of their physical presence and by the vortex they create, but that...

I don't think it's camel dung at all. I also think that, unless there are just a snotload of really glaring errors, it's a little silly to pick apart a speech word by word and try to find something wrong with it. The speech as a whole is what's most important. But without going and researching...

Yeah, that one was pretty funny, where the polls were exact opposites of each other. The Facebook poll is interesting because, like Leo said, it's just a blunt question, on/off pass/fail. Either they approve or they don't. I suggested the 7% error rate simply because the more poor of us are...

Facebook isn't a scientific poll, but then again the scientific polls aren't an accurate reflection, either, since they are scientific only in that they are scientifically targetting a specific audience, usually to gleen a predictable result. Facebook is almost certainly a more accurate...

I concur. Excellent article.

Yeah, two of them, one in particular that contain information about who owns Pilot, and what the arrangement with Road Ranger is. :p

You know, something strikes me with the initial premise of the classroom, where the teacher says, "All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A." He starts out telling everyone that no one would receive an A, but also...

You didn't read my posts, did you? :D

Because they are two different subjects, even though they're not. This thread, for example, according to the OP, is supposed to be about how California's woes affect expediters, yet the OP poses many questions that have far more to do with politics and tourism than expediting. The other thread...

Oh, there are definitely some pro-terrorist video games out there, but none in the mainstream (see the link I posted in Reply #4). Most are pretty lame, but the point is still driven home. People who think video games (or television and movies) do not influence people are really naive. The...

I'd pay real money to see you wearin' that. It will give a whole new meaning to Driver Appreciation Day. Two words: Dunk Tank.

I'd like to see a link where he said all the royalties would go to terrorist groups, especially since he's been steadfastly stating that all of the royalties were to go to charity organizations and groups like Amnesty International, the Center for Constitution Rights, and others that he acts in...

What is means is that California will have to reduce their spending. And as so often is the case, as California goes, so does the rest of us. Initially, some of the more essential services will be cut, partly because those are the larger and easier to cut expenditures, but also to put a real...
