I\'m not interested in the milkshakes that seem to be Starbuck\'s real draw

Keeping them almost the same, at 450 and 900, might have made sense -
you don\'t want to have to replace all the tins.

But instead they went down to 400 and 800. I don\'t recall the price
changing...



Many items in the grocery store have reduced in actual product but the
container stays the same size. They think the people doing the buying
will notice.

Getting the exact amount shown on the label, or slightly over, is a
legal issue in the USA.

If you buy a hundred bags of potato chips and weigh them on a precise
scale, which we did, none are below weight. And none are over by more
than about half a chip. Most are over by less than half the average
chip.

They add a half chip, if needed, to meet the target weight.

Sadly, there\'s no mechanism that allows you to choose which DNA sequence you put into action, and while evolution has equipped modern humans with a medical profession to give them advice about which set of DNA might have worked best if they had had a choice, it hasn\'t yet come up with infallible medical professionals.

The advice that the Scottish wanker would get would probably be along the lines of \"junk the lot you have got - there\'s no way to get it work well\".

He\'s what evolution would have selected out, if it worked better.

Yeah. The mechanics and body plans could be complicated too.

On a biology note, in-vitro fertilization sometimes uses three people,
one for the male genome, one for the female genome, the third for the
female mitochondria.

The issue is that with two people, the female provides both a genome
and all the mitochondria (male mitochondria are discarded), but
mitochondria have their own little genome, which can be defective, and
getting mitochondria from some other female allows mitochondria
defects to be remedied.

Learn?! What, did you go on a course or something? Most people don\'t have to learn such basic things.

I think the \"salt and shake\" ones with the separate blue bag of salt can
in a few years later. I don\'t know why they chose to do that, but they
definitely taste different - and, to me, better - from the ready salted.

Same to me, just had the option of less or no salt, which I didn\'t take.

people in ounces?


Says the person who multiplies 14 by 14 and gets 140.

I didn\'t. I divided 140 by 14 and got 10.

Then wrote 14.

You buy litres in America?

Only for beverages...

Not all beverages. Beer is typically sold in 12-ounce bottles or
cans. Possibly a U.S. pint (0.47 litre) at a bar.

Local california german restaurant serves 0.5 liter beers, but yes, that\'s
out of the ordinary in the US.

Why not just drink a whole litre?
