[quote]It's in all likelihood the entire reason this species exists. Homo Sapiens are likely just a caterpillar stage for whatever our evolution is making. Not many species stay the same and survive. And we're a species that has eyes on the stars. Which means we will have to survive in the most inho...

[quote]In some regions, there are enough passengers and regional traffic to justify at least quasi-high speed rail: - California (Bay area, Los Angeles, San Diego) - Florida (Miami-Ft Lauderdale, Tampa, Orlando, etc). - Northeast corridor (DC-Baltimore-Philly-Newark-New York-Hartford-Boston) - M...

[quote] In most parts of the U.S., it cannot work because populations are too spread out and cities too far apart. This makes car and air travel better in most places.[/quote] This. People bitch and moan that Europe does rail so well, but there's a big reason it works in Europe. Cities a...

[quote] If you were searching for a new job and had 3 interviews with different companies, the first one calls you back and offers you the job but you really would prefer one of the other two, would it be unprofessional to accept then unaccept if one of the other jobs offered you?[/quote] So you...

[quote]It has to be Back to the Future II. No other sequel ramped up the storyline as exponentially as this. Most just continue the tale. BTF2 completely turned everything upside down while still telling the story and not fricking anything up.[/quote] Aliens deserves strong consideration for the s...

[quote]It is when you don't have enough people to support the massive welfare state that many seem to want. It will collapse. (Not saying that's a bad thing, but societal breakdown is rarely good.)[/quote] Anyone who would downvote this can't see six inches beyond their nose. This isn't some ...

[quote]We're also assuming Hogwarts as it stands has no half wizard half muggle black students. In which case it doesn't even matter if Hermione is white, black, or asian.[/quote] I'm not sure where you're trying to go with this. Hermione was a main character throughout the entire saga. Clearly, ...

[quote]Or they could just not use the term mudblood if people think it's racist.[/quote] :lol: would be like omitting the term "the dark side" from Star Wars just for the sake of doing an arbitrary race swap. ...
