How appropriate, since Muse is basically a copy of U2.


You're kidding, right? U2's guitar sounds the same in pretty much every song...and it sounds awful. I'm not saying they don't have talent, but I hate the sound.

I hate U2 with a passion, but I absolutely love Muse, so I can't vote, but I can provide the following:

1. Anyone who has the name "The Edge" is automatically a douche.
2. Even Muse couldn't make this song sound good.

Muse a copy of U2 - that makes no sense whatsoever. I'm not really a fan of either, but I don't hear U2 in Muse at all. My problem with Muse is that every tune they do is so epic - they don't have the range that Radiohead does (or at least did). And U2 - well, they had relevance in the 80s.

I love to see this kind of collaboration, though. Great sift.

and a vote from csnel3, too.....lurking is NOT an option!...U2 duncan-

OK, I was able to find an academic source on daily water turnover (and therefore requirements) that mentioned the 40 ml/KG/day. However, the study was done on children, with the 40 ml/KG/day relating to 15 year-olds. Still, there are plenty of authoritative sources out there (in the far reaches of the intertubes) that cite similar or identical turnover rates. A quick search for "human water requirements per day" should get you some decent information. Even the USDA suggests drinking "a lot" of water (3.7 L for men, 2.7 for women) every day. (source)

It's not magic or a made up number, it's a simple in/out calculation. Urine accounts for between 500 and 1,000 ml of water loss, sweating and evaporation of water through breathing--or insensible water loss--accounts for another 450-1900 ml, and feces counts for a couple hundred ml as well (source). So if you're losing two to three liters of water every day, shouldn't you replace it? Wouldn't that be the logical conclusion?

Also, water in the food you eat accounts for only about 20% of your daily intake. (source)

Of course, your environment, activity level, age, weight, sex and other factors can play a part in how much water your body needs. Also, I'm not a doctor, just some guy with access to a search engine, so don't take my word for it.

Crappity Crap Crap!

Even the lowest forms have their purpose - Somewhere along the line, some people have come to think that music has to mean something - I blame U2

There is a such thing as entertainment!

Scooter. Perhaps the lowest form of "music" currently in existence.

I know I've seen this on the sift before somewhere but quite honestly I don't mind 2 of them at the moment. This is probably my favorite sift ever.

And I'm sure you aren't the only one Amateur

I believe I actually wept when I saw that view the first time.

>> ^Mcboinkens:
The Kashmir entrance of the plane gave me goosebumps.
Also, I didn't think pilots could have glasses or contacts? Or is it just that they can't be colorblind?
Anyway, if we had this technology for spyplanes in the 50's, it makes you wonder what technology we don't know about now.
