I'm still trying to figure out what it offers that an Aero-press doesn't. And for $11000, I could buy 423 of them, or one Aero-press, 50000 filters, and 500+ pounds of different coffees to try.


Cheers for that. Looked up the Aero-press and looks pretty neat. Ordered one

Maybe 20+ years experience of search engines helps? Or perhaps it's 20+ years experience of goofing off looking for things like this instead of the research I was supposed to be doing... I remember using Archie when I was at University, and later being impressed that Alta Vista had a whopping 6GB of RAM for speedy web searches

There are possibly one or two vids in my pqueue that may interest you, given the style of music we were discussing.

Damn dude! I used to think I knew how to search the net. Nice work, and I thank you for the info.

These were submitted in the hope of finding just such info, more than any hope they'd get sifted. So I owe you one now. LOL

Yup, definitely a dupe...and I'm not surprised. I thought it a bit odd that it wasn't here already.

Sadly, I'm pretty sure sifty won't let me second it. But let's make sure...

I think you can use the "dupeof" command on your own video at any time, regardless of star level. No "isdupe" is required in that case. Also, "isdupe" never needs the url, btw.

Mine are mostly in Oklahoma -- Kansas is just.... right.... there.

It is weird, isn't it, the disconnect between being "pro-life" and then being so all-fired quick to kill grown people? Maybe that is the crux of their problem -- clearly unreflective on even the most glaring inconsistencies in their thinking. Understand how they can be so blind to their obvious hypocrisy and you will understand their ability to be "evil."

Sorry. I don't believe in evil. Even Hitler had his demons from his childhood that he externalized rather than deal with.

Do you know any conservatives personally? I am related to lot of folks like this. For the most part, they are fearful, boxed in people who look at the world with blinkers on. In my experience.

Not evil. Scared. And angry. And possessive about "their" stuff -- out of fear.

Conservatives talk about "me and mine." Liberals talk about "us and ours." In my experience.

Delusional, or sociopathic liar? I really have a hard time deciding.

It's hard to believe he could be this delusional and still be articulate... But it's almost as hard to believe anyone could be this evil intentionally.


I do know a few, if for no other reason than my sister lives in the Kansas boondocks, and they're incredibly common out there. And I'm constantly amazed by many of them. What they claim to believe and what they do is so completely out of sync that it's mind-boggling. Especially among the "social conservatives", i.e. the Christians. "Love thy neighbor", unless it's going to cost me a penny more. And "abortion is murder", but "we should just wipe out all the towelheads." I've seen both of those attitudes more times than I can count.

I still say Cantor is evil...holding millions ransom for the benefit of a few is flat-out evil (a word I've only recently come to accept as something that actually exists in the real world). The only possible defense that I can see is "not guilty by reason of insanity", such that he doesn't even see reality.

I do not agree with this, I wish I could smuck your ass.

I have no sympathy for these people when they get gored and stomped on - they deserve it!


I'll go a step farther...there aren't -nearly- enough casualties at these events. We could improve the species -so- much just by removing all those balconies and wall hangings.

How so? Just curious.

Wow...what a load of patronizing bullshit.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my vids. If I made crappy comparisons or made no sense--it's because I am half asleep.
