Adding to the list of things better than a street hierarchy
There isn't much detail, but just the idea and plans of the hexagonal street scheme for Detroit is nonetheless interesting.
Furthermore, a trailer for the second half of season four of The Venture Bros. has been released. Beauty, eh?

Just wait until they turn their attention to Paul Dirac!
Pointing to Conservapedia and Andrew Schlafly, then laughing is really too easy, but his recent decision to deem through it the theory of relativity to be a liberal plot is exceptional even for that august personage.
Then again, they offer so many counter-examples.

Re: Just wait until they turn their attention to Paul Dirac!
The best: The lack of a single useful device developed based on any insights provided by the theory; no lives have been saved or helped, and the theory has not led to other useful theories and may have interfered with scientific progress.[11] This stands in stark contrast with every verified theory of science. The only device based on relativity is the atom bomb, but that has destroyed far more lives than it's saved so it can hardly be considered useful.Delthayre wrote:Pointing to Conservapedia and Andrew Schlafly, then laughing is really too easy, but his recent decision to deem through it the theory of relativity to be a liberal plot is exceptional even for that august personage.

Usually it's the conservatives who talk about how we need nuclear weapons as a deterrent, how we had no choice but to drop them in Japan, and so forth.The best: The lack of a single useful device developed based on any insights provided by the theory; no lives have been saved or helped, and the theory has not led to other useful theories and may have interfered with scientific progress.[11] This stands in stark contrast with every verified theory of science.

Interesting. So that's who Woodward was. The street named in his honor still exists to this day.Delthayre wrote:There isn't much detail, but just the idea and plans of the hexagonal street scheme for Detroit is nonetheless interesting.
If you're interested in what Detroit was, I point you to this wonderful Flickr album of no-longer-existing mansions entitled Industrialist Plutocracy.

Re: Just wait until they turn their attention to Paul Dirac!
I would agree so--it seems unusual that nuclear science, which is grounded from the theory of relativity, has only yielded the nuclear bomb. Not nuclear power plants. Not nuclear medicine. Reckon all those cancer patients and people living off of nuclear power are living on lies. Which, granted, is such a renewable resource that we're up to our tuckuses in it.Kai_DaiGoji wrote:The best: The lack of a single useful device developed based on any insights provided by the theory; no lives have been saved or helped, and the theory has not led to other useful theories and may have interfered with scientific progress.[11] This stands in stark contrast with every verified theory of science.

Other gems: Millions of tax-payers dollars have been wasted looking for gravitons, but none could be found, which invalidates relativity. Yet, we should be looking for luminferous aether. But wasn't the insubstantiation of aether what compelled relativity to come into existence?
There's also Jesus breaking the law of causality and causing things to happen instantly. You'd think, being the living incarnate of the aspect of logos, of the tripartite almighty God, he'd be blessed with the power to make physics his little bitch. The evidence of miracles does not disprove physics, it proves God's existence, and there's a huge difference.
Also, you gotta love the whopping fallacies inherent in such an argument: Where does the correlation between believing in relativity and not believing in God come in? Who does these studies? Blatant speculation is not a valid argument, even if one disputes the theory of relativity.

↑ See, e.g., historian Paul Johnson's book about the 20th century, and the article written by liberal law professor Laurence Tribe as allegedly assisted by Barack Obama. Virtually no one who is taught and believes relativity continues to read the Bible, a book that outsells New York Times bestsellers by a hundred-fold.

That's neat, but I can't help balking at the video being described, in its title and enthusiastically by some of the comments, as, "propaganda." I suppose that I can't really put an wordless animation that features a map of the United States changing into a cornucopia that spews race cars, hamburgers, television sets, hot dogs and baseballs in the same category as Völkischer Beobachter.Nortaneous wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7YV-RelWjA

Things like this make me wonder if driving on roads isn't something of a dead-end in transportation technology. Between uncommon grand jams like that and the commonplace ones that are routine for many people, it seems that there should be some room for innovation.Chibi wrote:If you thought your commute to work was bad...
