  Re: Predictions...

  I seriously doubt we will be a Kardashev 2.0 by 2091
  
  We are currently in the range of 0.70, and doubt we'd expand to more than a 1.5 by 2091
  
  But your right about just about everything else(fingers crossed that they develop mind uploading before i bite the dust)

  News Cycle

  Is Wikileaks factoring enough of a delay in the release of these cables to allow an appropriate news cycle for some of these revelations? I get this feeling that DynCorp will be forgotten within the next 2 releases by other stuff that at least merits discussion!

  Is it at all possible that he simply wants the courtesy of people paying attention to him, and more importantly the totality of his message? I think using social media DURING a presentation is asking for people to take it out of context - just a thought.

  Re: In the end

  "The radiation is harmless, by the way. Youll get more x-rays from the sun than you will from this. Maybe a couple of hours in the sun, but nonetheless."
  
  As Scott Tenorman, the aforementioned King of Gingers, I would like to remind you that "a couple of hours in the sun" could very well constitute an ER visit for me and is certainly a tangible accretion to my accumulative lifetime radiation exposure!
