In a way it kinda reminds me of the time another military dude was testifying before Barbara Boxer and he called her "ma'am" and she went off into a feminazi tirade about being called "ma'am". :rolleyes:

As long as they spread the people and weight down, it won't tip over, might sink a bit, but not capsize. :yes:

I'll wish Guam all the best, even as it looks like the island is already starting to tip.   :huh:

Lol.. what, does this guy think the island is out there floating around like a rubber ducky in a bath tub?   :wacko:

What they need to do is saw the island in half and rotate the overpopulated part, then re-attach it.

She wanted to be called sir like the men? :unsure:

No, Senator. She worked hard for the title after all.  :lol:

He has probably dealt with politicians before. A few years ago a Swedish MP asked a panel of scientists why you don't just put a propeller on cars and generate power from the airflow when driving.
That's not retarded, just naive.

Why wouldn't that work?
The additional power needed to push the prop through the air would be more than the power received from that propeller rotating.  That's my somewhat educated guess anyway, but I'd be surprised if I were wrong about that.

Actually, if he suggested generating generating all of the car's power from the airflow when driving, and not just auxiliary power, then he's much closer to being retarded.  Even non-scientist should be keenly aware of the fact that perpetual motion machines are impossible.

Either he was out of his mind, or badly taken out of context.

Definitely the former...The guy's a nutter.

Is that guy stoned?
I already answered this, yes, he's on experimental medication.

Well, then he shouldn't be part of those procedures and be somewhere safe where he can't embarrass himself.

Don't worry, he didn't suggest using ONLY the propeller.
