How is 1024x768 resolution a "game changer"? It's horribly low resolution. Tablets with better have been out for years. You can't even watch 720p video native on that res (despite one of the iPad's top selling points being watching "high def video" which is impossible with it's decidedly low def screen res).

You're right, in a way. It's really giving far too much credit to religion, to even compare it with science at all, when one is a method for understanding nature, where the other is a method to gain social/political/financial power over others. It's quite demeaning to science to even suggest it's on such a scummy level.

Sure, that's all fine and well. A carbon tax market isn't the answer. The only thing that will come of the cap and trade laws is massive profits for those that have set themselves up as speculators for the carbon tax market. In turn, we're all going to have to buy goods that are based on speculation (ala gas prices) rather than supply and demand. I hope you like paying $10+ for a gallon of milk, because that's what this is going to do, all so that fucking scumbags can make obscene profits, until it all goes bust, then they'll turn around and ask for a bailout, and you'll probably be the first in line clamoring to give it to them. You'd think after they've pulled this scam, what, like, 3 times in the past couple of years, people would start to get wise to it.

Too bad we don't live in an ideal fantasy world, where the supposed goal of such legislation is in fact what will happen, and instead live in the real world, where it NEVER works out as planned. Most likely the end result of this will be a carbon tax market clusterfuck that the assholes who came up with it in the first place will use as an excuse for more bailouts, this time of the carbon tax market. The fact that so few people are able to identify this obviously transparent ploy is fucking SAD.
