Well great. Good for your group, except the idiots who run lights. That doesn't mean I'm not going to treat every cyclist on the road as a potential hazard, as I treat motorcyclists.

I hear from people who drink good quality beer that Asahi is a fantastic Asian beer, as is Kirin, Singha Gold and Tiger.

By "asaki" do you mean "Asahi"?

And what counts as "at fault"? If a driver hits a pedestrian that they didn't see and that popped out suddenly out of nowhere (like, say, from behind a tree or a sign), they're still legally "at fault", even if they were travelling at the speed limit and took all usual precautions.

Yeah, and I hate them too. That doesn't change the fact that on the scale of "survival of the fittest" on our roads, cyclists < cars < big fucking massive trucks. It doesn't matter if that truck is speeding and being an arsehole on the road - are you going to argue with it for the sake of principle?

As a driver, I try to respect and give space to cyclists (and motorcyclists), as long as they respect the road rules (and SO MANY do not) and the fact that I am driving something that weighs orders of magnitude more than a human on a road bike, and have limitations thus in agility and...

If you're unsure, put it into quotation marks and do your best to cite a source (like your textbook). But it's always better to rephrase.

Well, I'd have to say that cyclists on roads such as the M7, travelling in lane or shoulder, are total idiots and deserve whatever fate they get.

And this is why I have so much trouble applying right-wingism/libertarianism to the environment.

This.

A few struts may be knocked out of place but the structure - the ARAS - is still there. You can't repair what isn't there, as in an embryo, so for me, the distinction doesn't disintegrate even with this hypothetical.

I don't see the conundrum, honestly. A person has the physiological architecture that allows consciousness (even if only in "the right conditions"); an embryo does not. It doesn't matter that it may have that architecture at some point in the future; as an embryo, it does not.

IDK, I guess it'd be easier for lefties to use dry-ink pens like ballpoints, given the smudging factor of fountains (and rollerballs, I suppose).

I don't know - I'd argue that there's a distinction between temporarily losing consciousness and not having the ability to be conscious at all.

Well from personal experience, Dell > Toshiba, but sure. I'd still go for a Mac. I jumped from a Dell Latitude (which I still have and use for various apps that haven't been ported to Mac.. like Zoo Tycoon :o) to a Macbook Air, with only a few bumps in the learning curve. I'd go for a Macbook...

If you're going to spend money like that, get a Mac.

Go for the converter. I currently use Waterman ink (only because they have a colour I like); Noodler's Ink is good too.

Also, it's a pretty good book.

Limewire is full of adware and malware. Use Frostwire.
