Re: Global Oil Infrastructure
Oh the marketing that went into trying to convince everyone that oil comes from dead dinosaurs :rolleyes: . I bet the majority of people that are asked will still give you that reply when you ask them where oil comes from. (I personally am struggling with abiotic vs wickedpedia's official explanatio...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
It looks like I may have erred on my photographic interpretation of the yellow flatbed big rig truck. Here is a snapshot taken from the official Red Bull footage. It shows them pumping the balloon while being held by a simple yellow flatbed, and the frame of the truck in front holding the white heli...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
Here's a few more for you. It appears that the crane veered slightly left as you can still see the yellow flatbed at both the :47 mark (complete with mystery bubble, I might add) as well as the :49 mark. :47 see extreme right under right-most person's armpit: http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii54...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
Rick55, Forgive me for asking, but is there something in the pictures that I posted along with the video that you can see for yourself (top of this page) that I am not seeing correctly? I examined your linked video and I'm still trying to understand what you mean. I think you mean that the yellow c...

Re: "Obama Sin Laden" & other stories about Barack Obama
Several noteworthy semiotics in the trailer. 1:06-1:09. Black family fighting over a board game of Monopoly. Symbolizes the frustration among (especially blacks) derived from the realization Obama is not who they thought he was. The game of Monopoly symbolizes the fakery of the real estate crisis. ...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
I thought we had already concluded that the Felix stunt is a fake because the balloon could never reach 39 000 m altitude and lack of air (buoyant medium) there. :rolleyes: Also the mission control room with twenty people sitting behind computer screens à la NASA/JPL doing nothing is a typical fake...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
Unless it had a super cloaking device or I just can't spot it, it looks like a big yellow truck is missing from the side views of the 'live launch' shots. (keep your eye on the white big rig for reference) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-video/9607978/Felix-Baumgartner-launches-skydive-re...

Re: LIVE NOW - man leaps from edge of space
:D Aww, Simon... Do you mean that we can't all bombard ABC with our cry of foul and have them get one of their roving reporters on it right away? Here's one that one of my local news affiliates tried to pass off as 'News' the other day regarding a big gust in Japan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7...

Re: Reviewing Hollywood snakery
Marilyn Monroe... good call, Lux. I did a couple of minutes of just looking into her details as for some reason, it never inspired me before. It seems that her beginning started off as controversial as her end. And with the strange happenings re: the Kennedy's and your excellent topic regarding RFK ...

Re: The invention of AIDS
Just to chime in, I live in the L.A. area and there is only one person that I have known who has admitted to be HIV positive. Strangely, I always thought him to be a bit selfish since we both worked in computer repair at that moment and in digging through those pesky machines, we would tend to get a...

Re: Global Oil Infrastructure
Why is petrol so expensive in Europe compared to the gasoline of the U.S. other than the reported 'war cost discount'? Also, why are so few diesel models available here and those that are available are sold at a significant cost premium? Also, in my brief visit to Spain a few years back, why are mop...

Re: Reviewing Hollywood snakery
Why isn't Andy Kaufman in the Social Security Death Index? -- After all, he did issue the following bold statement: Kaufman allegedly told many people—including Bob Zmuda—that he wished to fake his own death prior to his actual death. This has caused some fans to believe Kaufman is still alive.[33] ...

Re: Fakery in Orbit: THE ISS
Great observation, Reichstag. And his pants appear to take on the same texture of the ground in spots. And is this the most satisfying picture of himself...shadowed next to a silver car?

Does anybody happen to have any voice recognition software handy? :D Aw, heck.. you probably won't need it. Edit: Switched to direct youtube link.
