New supercomputer technology to improve speed exponentially

Regulations are what keep this from happening. The right wing doesn't believe in regulation. Is it really so difficult to understand? All you have to do is look over the USMB. The right wingers on that site are representative of right wingers all over the US.

Those pictures are examples of what unregulated business leaves behind.

ahh......Nobody advicates no evironmental regulaton idiot. We advicate less stupid usless regulations and taxes .So that buisnesses can stay in this country and make a profit.. Taxes on Carbon dioxide emissions Weres the UN condemnation of China? Weres the evironmentalists? You stupid libs don't realize the results of you're stupidity this is one of them.


Can we even grow food here?...Stupid libs are ruining this country...

Shawn Insanity? Gawd, can you possibly get a less reliable source?

You might want to look it up idiot..or are you too stuck in you're liberal fog to check on anything?In other words.....You don't know, and you don't know you don't know

Yea, scientists are bad. And stupid. Not like you guys who can just pull made up facts out your ass.

I love the way you guys prove my point over and over again.

Were you trying to prove that Old Rocks is an idiot for thinking the Chinese government is basing its one child policy on worry about famine? If so, I am glad I could help.

Please not that I did not attack science, or even scientists, I attacked Old Rocks and his constant attempts to change history by saying things that are untrue. The one child policy was based on the population bomb theory that has since been discredited, not on worry about the consequences of a potential natural disaster.

Of course you are not. And when the inevitable happens, then you will blame someone else for not having a plan for it. China has gone through many cycles of starvation in the past where litterally millions starved to death. But the idea of reducing the population to the point that China can weather a drouth without mass starvation by a one child policy is something you find offensive. More offensive than the idea of millions starving to death. I find Conservative morality to be offensive.

Nor has the population bomb been discredited. A wonderful man by the name of Borlaug pushed the limit back a bit. But all it would take is a couple more crop failures like the ones in Pakistan and Russia this year to show the validity of the concept. Or, conversely, one eruption the equal of Tambora.

I would challenge you to show anywhere where I blame anyone for not having a plan. I actually have volunteered for NGOs that send people in to help, and they rarely have a plan in place before a disaster strikes, because it is more efficient to react to the problem than attempt to plan out all the potential scenarios and make contingencies for all of them. It takes a huge staff, and a lot of money, to plan for everything, and it is almost always a waste of bit the staff, and the time involved.

As for the population bomb, wasn't that supposed to go off when we exceeded the ability of the worlds farmers to support a population above 4 billion? Or should we just look at the fact that India was going to implode by 1971 because there was no way the limited arable land would support a population of 600,000,000. Yet they support twice that now, and are not facing imminent starvation.

Wasn't technology supposed to make things worse? I seem the recall another assertion that technological societies had less of a chance of dealing with the dangers than low tech societies. Funny how inaccurate that turned out to be, isn't it? Most of the world is where we were in the late 60s and early 70s, and we are still around.

The fact that you are trying to claim it is not entirely discredited, despite the fact that we have far surpassed the point of no return, shows how much you should be taken seriously. "Wonderful" men can push the numbers back as far as they want, what really makes the difference is the ability of people to overcome problems. We might someday face a problem we cannot solve, but it will not be overpopulation, or global cooling, that other great scientific farce from that time.

Yep I remember reading about this when I was a kid


Today it's global warming; in the '70s it was the coming ice age



Many Seattleites pride themselves on a fanatical environmentalism that frankly defies reason. On Earth Day, we commonly hear dark predictions about the looming horrors of global warming (a typical example, “What is at stake [is] our ability to live on planet Earth,” Al Gore).

Yet not so long ago the news media issued dire warnings about global cooling and a coming Ice Age. Consider these headlines:

•“The Earth’s Cooling Climate,” Science News, November 15, 1969.

•“Colder Winters Held Dawn of New Ice Age,” Washington Post, January 11, 1970.

•“Science: Another Ice Age?” Time Magazine, June 24, 1974.

•“The Ice Age Cometh!” Science News, March 1, 1975.

•“The Cooling World,” Newsweek, April 28, 1975.

•“Scientists Ask Why World Climate is Changing; Major Cooling May Be Ahead,” New York Times, May 21, 1975.

•“In the Grip of a New Ice Age?” International Wildlife July-August, 1975.

•“A Major Cooling Widely Considered to Be Inevitable,” New York Times, September 14, 1975.

•“Variations in the Earth’s Orbit, Pacemaker of the Ice Ages,” Science magazine, December 10, 1976.
Reporters told the public about global cooling in the same confident tone used in today’s coverage about global warming, creating the strong impression that no reasonable person could disagree

Now you have done it.

Prepared to be challenged with links to modern articles that prove scientists always believed in global warming, and that that entire global cooling thing from the 70s is entirely made up. Old Rocks is a True Believer in global warming.

As per my view personal computers will offer the power of today's super machines and artificial intelligence.A telecommunications network will supply the world with services from the contents of the Library of Congress to pornographic videos in Cantonese.The United States-reversing a decades-old trend-will link its major cities with high-speed railroads.Airplanes will be capable of leaping halfway around the world in just two hours.
