I wonder how long you have to spend washing it before you can use it for fish.

And, you can see from the graph that the culture was changing before 1967, but there's no "spike" in acceptance at 1967, so the law didn't change the culture.

I remember a lot of people pointing out that the folk advancing those arguments were fools. It's rather hard to define what the "culture" of a whole country thinks. Certainly, the government didn't introduce the legislation without at least some support from some people in the country.

My understanding is that, at least in principle, the people decide they want something new (i.e. there is a change in culture) and they elect a government which enacts legislation to bring it about. The culture changes the legislation. Obviously, the law of unintended consequences will probably make a mess of things.

He looks "balanced".

The "traditional" breathalyser works by dissolving alcohol from breath into water and using it to drive a fuel cell- the voltage from the cell gives an indication of the alcohol content. Other methods are sometimes used- the reduction of acid chromate to chrome (III) is another option. What does that have to do with IR spectrometry?

Really? Chloromethane is a gas. How are you containing it?

Unless he stops being "stable". There seems to be a big argument about whether the disgraceful number of gun attacks on schools in the US is due to the availability of guns, or to some cultural factor. It's a valid topic for debate, but I don't think anyone denies that both are causative factors. However, you can legislate for better gun control, and you can't legislate for "better culture", so there's only one course of action for the government to take. Recent governments, (particularly, recent Right wing governments) have opposed doing the only thing that can do which would help. Perhaps these marches will convince them that there are votes to be gained from changing that position

What diamine?

I think we need to clarify that, while you are passing the screwdriver round yourself, you will rotate (a bit), but when you stop passing it, you will stop moving. You may be facing in a different direction at this point.

One way to start spinning would be to punch a hole in your space suit so the air rushes out. Les lethal options would also ne possible. Imagine doing a similar experiment, but in a big black box floating in space. You start spinning and you notice that your arms get flung out to the sides because you are spinning, but because of the box, you can't see the stars. OK, stop the spinning . Now imagine that there are "stars " painted on the box in luminous paint and that, while you are not spinning, someone sets the box rotating round you- your arms don't suddenly get flung out by centrifugal force because you are not spinning. You might recognise that the stars have nothing to do with it. The forces on your arms are a function of your rotation.

"Would an Artificial Trachea Cure Asthma?" No, because the problems are in the lungs.

I can't promise anything, but if you post a copy of the protocol you are following I will look at it + see if I can spot anything. The problem with that is that your employer may not want that protocol in the public domain- in which case this web site can't really help you much.

Slightly less credible than numerology.

In general, science does not show that anything is true- it just fails to show that it is false. Ecology is no different.

At least some carboxylic acids are fairly water repellent with or without mixing them with alumina. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid

Why leap to the conclusion that adoption is a bad thing? (Obligatory jokes to prove I'm not going off topic) Q. What is the difference between a duck? A. One of it's legs are both the same. Q. What's brown and sticky? A A stick.

My suggestion works better for blind drivers.

Do you have any idea how inefficient lasers are, especially xray lasers?

It's not that I think they do. It's a matter of record that they do. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-35390692

And again... Where do you plan to get the X rays from?

Thanks for letting me know what I think. If you keep on doing it, one day you might get it right.

It seems you also don't understand what a false dichotomy is.

Oh, I see now. The problem is that you don't understand the difference between asking a question or making a statement , and complaining? Well, I guess you are young enough to learn.
