In the US, I love the southern states. But then, I'm from the south, so there you go. I think people down there, if not more honest, are at least a lot more hospitable, and I think that goes a long way. I also love Waffle Houses, being able to order tea pre-sweetened to a point it makes my teeth feel hairy just thinking about it, NASCAR, bluegrass, deciduous forests, and the feeling of being somewhere where, if the power and water were turned off, nature would quickly overtake everything.

No offense to CA, but I find the level of government subsidization necessary to keep cities running and lawns green out there a bit disconcerting.

I've found that, no matter what I'm drinking, the safest thing to do (aside from not drinking at all) is to drink slowly. When you start chugging, knocking down shots, etc., things can get very bad, very fast - before you know it.

Also, never drink champagne out of a solo cup.

SoT, you don't have to explain every conceivable problem ever, but you should at least explain one conceivable problem with each major equation. Deriving Schrodinger's Equation is great, but having seen the derivation sort of doesn't help when you're trying to solve for the wave equation of a particle in a finite square well if you haven't seen any application of it ever.

Yes, there were homework problems, but I did not once solve a homework problem independently during the entirety of my first two physics courses at Cal. I simply did not ever have the right equations or the right tools.

Bear in mind that I got A's in these classes. Something was direly wrong.

Eh, sure, we found no WMDs. But we mays well take care of Saddam's terrorism, if not toward us toward his own people, once and for all.

Oh, and a direct terrorist attack on important buildings inside the US is definately a good reason to go to war.

The Sears Tower is also 110 stories high, but it's 1450 feet, making it taller than the Twin Towers.

It's also not the tallest building in the US. That would be the Sears Tower in Chicago, I believe.

[quote]I'm not saying he should have run or anything, but don't just sit there while a plane crashed into the largest building of America (even if he didn't know it was a terrorist attack) many people died and it affected the country's economy; also he knew that it wasn't just a plane crash, it was a plane crash into the WTC, which makes a difference since more people were dead and the market was affected. However, I'm not saying that the movie was something that should determine one's view on Bush, but it did have information that should have been available to the public.

Um, no. A documentary shows you what the director wants you to see. Fortunately for Michael Moore, many of his clips speak for themselves. Unfortunately for the nation, many voting citizens were too busy drinking the kool-aid to pay attention.

True. I couldn't agree more. New Yorkers were so angry at the elections. I mean, it took Bush 10 minutes to act after he knew that the twin towers were attacked. what kind of president is that? Anyways, this subject is too old, he is governing for 3 more years and we can't do nothing about it. Fortunately, he won't be in power ever again.

"Um, Mr. Bush, there's been a plane crash in New York." You are the president, what do you do?
1) Jump up right away and run to the warroom, "this must be a terrorist attack," you say "it's not like a plane ever crashes in the U.S. unless piloted by insane America-hating jihadists."
2) Realize that there's nothing you can do about a plane crash, and then leave once you learn that there is more going on then a simple accident.

Really, Moore, connects the dots that simply aren't there in his failed attempt to discredit the president. The only thing scarry about Farenheit 911 was that so many people were willing to accept the wild conspiracy theories it presented, just because it made for an entertaining film.

The only true injustice is the misconception that college in an integral part of life. It isn't. Really. I would hire someone with real experience before hiring a college grad. And not everyone needs to go to college in order to succeed. In fact, very few people that go to college succeed in a relative (ROI) sense. :D
