Actually coal only overtook oil as the main source of co2 emissions in the last couple of years.

And PE, you clearly don't know Comey. Look up whitewater. It isn't the first time he's go deranged and unprofessional at the Clintons

RCP numbers today paint a grim picture for the Trump Campaign. We could see a very Obama-Romney-esque ending here.

Yes, coal has taken over, and Clinton is going to wreck that. She may use oil to do so, but if that is the compromise we need to make in order to get rid of coal, so be it. Once wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, and fusion are plausible alternatives across the country, the free market will make that happen, and we aren't that far from that. Cars may stay gas powered, but they aren't the biggest emission contributors anyway.

"WSJ link citing that number, it's the number of emails found on the laptop that sparked the brief reopening of the investigation."

Yes, PE, 650k is the *total number of emails on the laptop*. The FBI specifically reviewed emails to/from Clinton, a much smaller number (given that it's *Weiner's* laptop, most of the traffic is his). *Then* they subtracted duplicates. Which, according to Newsweek, was most of them:

"The FBI can't review 650k emails in 8 days!" is reminding me of nothing more than "Jet fuel can't melt steel beams!"
You might have considered reading the rest of my post where I talk about that...

PE:
"You might have considered reading the rest of my post where I talk about that..."

You discounted the effect of most of the traffic not being relevant in order to keep up appearances. Filter it on sent/received and remove duplicates and 95% of the emails are gone. But you're acting like 95% of the emails are still there. You tell me what's causing the discrepancy, because only one of those numbers is based on a solid understanding of how the investigation was conducted.

Homebrew e-mail servers powered by jet fuel, sending e-mails about steel beams, are going to house all of the election vote results. Discuss.

To Americans
Learn from this mistake. When given a chance to elect someone like Bernie again, do it. Don't go for the person that's a part of the establishment. It could've been Bernie getting ready for his victory speech now. You threw that chance away when you LET the establishment decide Bernie wouldn't win. Learn from this mistake so that you don't make it again. Better luck next time.

Polarization Self-Assessment Thread
Politics has changed A LOT in the past ten years ago. In this thread, I'd like to encourage you all to think about your past political views and how greatly you've polarized over time. What issues do you care about today vs then? Why? Any original ideas or do you rely on the media for cues? Interested to hear some real self-assessment here! :)

Viable Strategies for Austria
Whenever I play Austria I feel like I'm strategically forced to attack Turkey. I think that if Turkey isn't killed in the early game, he is basically forced based to go through Austria if he wants to reach the rest of the world. I know that this can't be the case, but I don't see the other strategies.
I would love to learn of some other options for Austria so I don't do the same thing every time I get it.
