Did Earth's twin cores spark plate tectonics?

Seeded on Tue Jan 6, 2009 4:14 PM EST (msnbc.com)

It's a classic image from every youngster's science textbook: a cutaway image of Earth's interior. The brown crust is paper-thin; the warm mantle orange, the seething liquid of the outer core yellow, and at the center the core, a ball of solid, red-hot iron.

- No, you right wing morons, all the preceding presidents DID NOT give him handshakes. W himself bowed! Oh the shame of it all! I really am starting to think that conservatives are becoming mentally retarded. They simply cannot rationally analyze or discuss anything.

- You are a plant for the SPE (that's Stupid People Everywhere). Apparently you still don't get the "option" thing. You could look it up. And it's really not presenting a counter-argument to just say other people are lying.

- Uh huh SteveO, they KNEW 2 years ago that Obama was going to be president and have a health care reform bill, and they twisted the data from 619,000 patients just to come to that conclusion---oh wait, they DIDN'T come to that conclusion. Your bad.

- So if 78% ( and I'll use your numbers) of us have "private" (i.e. commercially available) health insurance, why the hell are you so frightened of "universal health care" that would not be universal at all, just 22% maximum---and in reality about 6% in the final tally.

- You are required to carry car insurance. You are required to carry home insurance. Don't act like this is all some new liberal plot to take away your right to choose your insurance provider. You can still have the same insurance you always had.

- Oh, crap. Now we are sure to have to listen to Brent Musberger announcing games where he simply has a man-crush on saying the full name of the quarterback (usually the QB) every...single...time he says the name. He's done this for decades and I just can't stand it anymore.

- This is just a stupid post. European cops (cops all over the world, really) use all sorts of smaller vehicles, most front wheel drive, and they manage to keep the peace fairly well. They even manage to catch speeders on the Autobahn and the like, because they use...radios.
