In the movie Armageddon, it probably would have been easier to train astronauts to be drillers, rather than drillers to be astronauts.

a bachelors degree....ooh yeah thats a high bar there. Seriously man....argue all you want. Being an astronaut is the nerd equivalent of being a professional athlete....tons of nerds want to go to space...only a few ever get a chance.....I get it. And I get thats theres all sorts of specialized training they have to go through. BUT.....

just as you throw around this one year experience is worth a masters and three years a doctorate..... Ill take a doctorate in drilling when I need drilling done over a doctorate in sitting in a tin can. Im dead serious. We were going to send McAuliffe to space, I mean might not be the best example considering how that went....but if a 37 year old school teacher from new hampshire could pass muster I dont think its as tough as you seem to believe.

Dementia is going to wreak havoc on generations that rely on technology that is heavily password protected (bank accounts, social media, email, etc). Two factor authentication and password recovery questions will make it all the more difficult Mermaids can definitely be black. Africa is surrounded by water too. Considering how short our ancestors' lives were, most of humanity's greatest inventions must be been made by young people

Is Verizon balancing the books from the strike with all these terminations ? Me [28F] with my brother [24M], it's been two years since he graduated college, and moved in with my mom [49F]; he still hasn't found a job and we don't know how to talk to him about it anymore.
