Was that any different than your response here: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/3785093/Re-Ever-wonder-if-the-media-thinks-for-itself.aspx[^] ? (Except that Ian only used one emoticon and you used three...)

I don't know...he posted something at 2pm on the 8th, but nothing since. I just can't seem to find out what time the shooting happened... Strong possibility that they're one and the same...or maybe just close friends.

It's been tried before. He even got to the point where he started his own group on here to post his crap: (The Truthbox[^]) Amazingly, he still apparently posts everything he writes there as well, even though no one follows it. I guess it's his online diary (envision a little girl scribbling nonsense in a coloring book and you get the idea).

Reading about some of his YouTube videos (Loughner's), I couldn't help but think about our own conspiracy theorist.

others have covered email viruses, bulletproof vests, and laser printers. So, here's one for scissors: "It is most likely that scissors were invented around 1500 BC in ancient Egypt." (Wikipedia:Scissors[^]). I didn't know that DaVinci was alive back then! Seriously...do you believe everything you see on the web?!

That's difficult because farm subsidies help everyone...not just the farmers. Have you noticed the price of milk in the last 30 years. In 1980, the price was $13.21/cwt. There are approximately 12 gallons in a cwt so that was $1.10 per gallon. In 2010, the price was $16.3/cwt or $1.36 per gallon. There has been a lot of fluctuation in the last few years (2009, it was $12.84/cwt), but from 1980 to 2010, the price went up a full $0.26! To me, that seems like a pretty small increase considering how much the cost of living has increased since 1980. The farm subsidies are really there to allow farmers to continue to sell their products at a lower price so that the person making $25,000 a year can afford to buy milk and bread. Farm subsidies aren't helping the average farmer become upper-class. They're helping them survive!

Ah...thanks...makes sense!

Just curious, but I just saw this code and I was wondering what the difference was. The code I saw was (basically):

FontStyle style = someFont.Style;
style |= FontStyle.Italic;

How is that any different than:

FontStyle style = someFont.Style;
style = FontStyle.Italic;

In college, we would go and check out a projector and set up GoldenEye or Mario Kart on our floor and have weekend-long tournaments! Man those were the good days!

wait...you get your g/f to play with you! She's a keeper! I'm only close to getting my wife to agree to an XBox because of the workout stuff with the Kinect. Otherwise, it's a no-go! I'm still stuck in the days of the GameCube! I'd almost rather just have an N64 with GoldenEye...

Yeah, Neverwinter Nights did that for me. About a month of playing it for about 8 hours every night until after 2am left me struggling a bit at work. But I don't avoid games entirely. They still help get you through the work day!

an example:

ss1.str(""); //clear the stringstream
ss1<< i+1; //input number of the label into string stream

check out this user: Tejas MCA[^] They apparently want us to do their entire homework assignment for them...

and what exactly do you think that the Republicans will be able to push through with a democratic senate?

Someone may already have corrected you, but it doesn't say that

without trees, CO2 cant be removed fomr the atmosphere and thus causes GW.

it says that when the trees are removed, the trees can no longer remove CO2 from the air which results in increased GW. Two points: 1) it never says that CO2 can't be removed without trees. That would be an extremely false statement. However, what it says is correct...when the tree is cut down, it can no longer remove CO2 from the air. 2) it doesn't say it causes GW. It says it results in increased global warming. So, in order to take this test, you would have to understand that the assumption is that global warming happens. That assumption is, apparently in spite of your vast efforts, still the widely held assumption amongst the scientific community. But, I do have to say that the test itself looks like it was written for a 10 year old. Can't they put more than 50 words on a page or does that stress the kids out too much?

nice!

you used 2 twice

So, if you use cs as the language in your pre tag, the escape character doesn't escape double quotes. By that I mean that if you write:

arrString[0] = arrString[0].Replace("\"",string.Empty);

or

string test = "something\"" + this + "\"something else"

it treats each double quote as starting or ending the current text section screwing up the coloring.

the warmig effect of CO2 has been, by this paper, cut by 65%

Wait a minute...this paper cut CO2 warming by being written? Well, hell, let's get them to write a dozen papers and maybe then, we can reduce CO2 warming completely! Here's what I saw in that paper that (from everything I've read that you've written) you disagree with... "Earth's climate can only be stabilized by bringing carbon dioxide emissions under control in the twenty-first century." "It is at present impossible to accurately determine climate sensitivity" Yes, they say it could equally be caused by a "low climate sensitivity coupled with a small effect from aerosols", but the paper doesn't actually say that that is the case. They say that they don't know. They say that the only way to know is to reduce the short-lived compounds to pre-industrial standards and only then will we be able to really tell what effect CO2 has on the climate. Yes, it says that it augments the radiative forcing of CO2 by 65% (which if you noticed the reference, they actually pulled from an IPCC document). It would appear to me that you are reading into that statistic more than it actually is...especially considering they determined it from an IPCC document.
