  Re: Re: Re: Re: The Flintstones did it first

  Yes, those are new emissions, but you're forgetting the old emissions that were already in the atmosphere but got frozen in time in the form of fossil fuels like coal and oil. The fact is, add those and the current natural emissions combined, and you get a far larger number then has existed on Earth in a very, very, very long time. That is the problem we face when we talk about pollution, we are creating far too much of old and new pollution.

  Re: Re: The Flintstones did it first

  It matters when it comes to emissions, which I believe his point was. Food and people are recyclable, fossil fuels aren't.
  That's why it is more efficient to take the bus, it can transport more people for longer distances. Trains too. Now take a car, it wastes more energy but for fewer people benefiting from the pollution that happens anyway.

  Re: This isn't even polemical.

  "So, why don't you guys start presenting actual business plans, just as a hypothetical, to show how practical "give away and pray" is?"
  
  If you need to ask for a business mode after you have posted here countess of times, then I suggest you start reading rather then just posting incoherent dribble.
  And btw, it never was 'give it aways and pray'. On the contrary, the current model already IS "give it aways and pray". They make a movie, and they HOPE people go and see it. Far cry from the successful models that are already working for those that have adapted to the digital age. Unlike say, the current old legacy companies, that only seem to employ lawyers these days.

  But If my memory serves me, doesn't PayPal charge money for those kind of for-profit donations anyway?

  "The technique of steganography by printed arrays of microbes (SPAM) sounds like the nerdiest way to send a message. Using bacteria to encode secret messages could also be another interesting method for lots of copies keeps stuff safe"
  
  Good Lord! That sounds like a Germophobic Copyright Shill's worst nightmare

  Re:

  You're wasting your time Spock. These are people that would deny technological advancement and social evolution, for their own backwards greed and selfishness. Their kind has been breaking technology and progress for centuries. They are the ones that burned books, destroyed libraries, killed mathematicians and philosophers. All to keep the status quo suited for their own needs.

  Leave it be Karl, he's not right in the head. He's been trolling many copyright related blogs and websites for years. You can tell by his boilerplate response.
  Seriously, leave him be.

  Sadly logic doesn't work on trolls. In this case we need Kirk, he'll just Kirk them to death.
