      Much longer than that, as neurons are effectively analog rather than digital.

          To follow up from Ravi's post below, here is a timeline. I didn't go through it all, but there is some neat stuff. And that's one fancy timeline (though I'd be more impressed if it were HTML/JavaScript).

            Yeah. Awful! Causes a nasty side-effect: Sobriety. When you drink you may at try least shooting revenuers. (Even though you will probably miss. Hard to pick the proper target when you see 3 of them). But when sober you may decide not to shoot at all! Sobriety causes cowardice! :)

              When it's the largest with more than 15,000 employees, does that not imply largest?? Full stop :confused:?

                I don't remember being sober when I drank it in Prague. It all went well, drinking Abstinence[^] all day, but then things get a bit blurry around 2 in the morning.

                      Straight from Wikipedia. It is quite a large employer. Acutally rather surprising.

                              Alcohol might not kill brain cells, but it sure can bugger up the information that's flowing between them.

                                The issue is the sentence "Intel is the[sic] Oregon's largest private employer with over 15,000 employees". As as, it implies that of all the companies with over 15,000 employees Intel is the largest. This is because the phrases are not delineated. The two phrases need to be split or reordered thus: "Intel is Oregon's largest private employer; with over 15,000 employees." or "Intel, with over 15,000 employees, is Oregon's largest private employer."
