  1. But the second sentence doesn't say that, even when you change the punctuation. The "That" that now begins it is the key. If you throw away the word, I'd agree that the sentence would follow your interpretation. P.S. Ace, way to totally miss my point. My point wasn't to misquote you, it was to show you how much of an !@#$%^&* you were being. I obviously failed.
  2. Mine, while slightly changed to fit, was used in the same context as yours. I'll call it a "you're wrong, I'm right, hahaha" context. And yes, the idea was to show you as being egotistical and narcissistic (as well as extremely condescending).

    The nature of SS bullets means any armor effective against L3 will be even more effective against L4. So take a look through those armors first.
  4. Let me get this straight, SeVeR... You think that the quote: Should be: The "That" that begins the second sentence still links it to the first in a way that would indicate "my interpretation of her words seems to be the most logical interpretation". Lol, that's such a condescending and pretentious way of saying things, but I can never resist an Aceflyer jibe. I don't think she ever said Iraq was a task from God, so there's no contradiction in my interpretation either (and I'd argue much less contradiction than yours). Please correct me if the second quote wasn't what you meant.
  5. You seem to be arguing about what you think she meant rather than what she said. I'm talking about what she said (and only what she said), so there's really nothing I can do to change your mind, since no amount of sentence analysis will change your mind about what she meant and didn't say. I took the easiest point in the thread to disprove, and everyone seems to have taken the view "never let facts get in the way of a good grudge". I won't bother continuing on to the other points. While they're also possible to disprove with facts, I'm guessing those facts are just as easy for you guys to ignore. So go on hating her for made up reasons, but don't be shocked when America likes her.
  6. SeVeR, if that is the case, how do you explain the last sentence? If you move the punctuation like you want to (completely separating the first two sentences), the last sentence STILL means she's hoping it's God's plan (and not stating that it is). You can't have it both ways. Either it's God's plan and you have to ignore the last sentence like you've all been doing. Or it's not God's plan and she's asking people to pray that it is, which is what is happening. Aceflyer, feel free to ignore everything I'm saying. After all, it makes the discussion go so much more easily for you. P.S. Ace, it may be "obvious to most" on this board, where the population is predominantly extremely left, but try a visit to the real world. Or better yet, talk to someone who's personally been there. Please stop making your little digs without any evidence.
  7. You provided no context for me to discuss. You made broad statements, so I responded in kind. For example, you could have put up a quote about her talking to the troops, or defined exactly what it takes to qualify as a "far-right nutcase" (I'm guessing 90% of the country would qualify if you spelled it out).
  8. I'm only taking on one point at a time. I'm not trying to prove anything about what she believes or doesn't believe, only what she's said. You don't like her? Fine. Everyone is en!@#$%^&*led to their opinion, but that doesn't mean you can get away with using bad or incomplete statements to convince other people.
  9. 3:30 to 4:00 is time of the quote in SeVeR's link for anyone that cares. Her last sentence in the quote sums it all up. "That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that that plan is God's plan." Ace, did you even read/watch the surrounding sentences? I can highlight them if it'll help you read them. Anyhow, they change the meaning completely. There's no "rationalization" since elementary grammar will suffice.
  10. This isn't really hyperspace related, so I'm moving it to general development.
  11. I'm no McCain fanboy, but I'd like to provide some references that are seriously lacking. About the "Iraq is a task from God", how about reading the entire quote instead of taking a biased journalist's word for it? Here's my reference (admittedly biased conservative, but that doesn't change the facts):
  12. By the same token, if you think that gitmo is evil and abortions are ok, you have no moral authority on anything. The sub!@#$%^&*le couldn't be more true. There are two sides to every story, and what Polix posted was only one.
  13. For those of you that care, despite the confusing wording above, RootBear isn't staff in HS.
  14. General Relativity (the study of gravity) has been experimentally confirmed thousands of times. It might only be 99.9999% correct, but that small uncertainty isn't enough to invalidate anything above the quantum level (subatomic, unlike the moon).
  15. The density of the Earth doesn't matter to objects far away. Only the mass A black hole doesn't have more m!@#$%^&* than the star that created it, it's simply more dense, so objects falling into it can't escape. It doesn't pull anything into it that it wouldn't have when it was a star. So any planets will continue to rotate around it unaffected, just as the moon would continue to rotate around the earth.
  16. Polix, the moon and artificial satellites would be unaffected by the Earth turning into a black hole (since the m!@#$%^&* of the earth hasn't changed), so they don't even need a booster rocket on the moon.

    A shark was chosen because it has the smallest radius, and I was thinking of allowing other ships to use PD.

    Yeah, start of school kills HS every year. It'll pick back up in a couple of weeks once people fall into their new schedules, like it always does.
  19. 6 people who can neither attach to each other nor occupy the same space without killing each other, none the less.
  20. More than half.

    Hey guys

    Meaning he can typekill you IRL too.
  22. People always remember things as better than they really were. I *know* that the old settings/items were much lamer than the current ones.
  23. Yes, and when you were 6, I created the zone.

    Quite frankly, PD's aim sucks. I've never seen a point to making more than we've already got until someone decides to make a decent aim algorithm.
  25. No meaning it's part of continuum, not something we can change.
