Should this post be sticky/stay on top, if not, at the end of the day, it will be pushed to the bottom and some people might miss it.

I'm done with Wired - I want my science sciencey, not political. Stick to the facts, that's all I want - I neither need, want nor appreciate your personal opinions - I leave that to the media and a higher power - my wife.

If you want facts, then stop reading any website and stick to CSV files.

Do you think you might want to write the editors at Wired about this ?
I stopped reading it a long time ago after, imho, it became a nest of narcissistic techno-savants too busy with flaunting their own grandiosity to write articles whose content interested me. I saw the word "meme" in it so many times, I developed a rash.

I believe there is a "rash" meme somewhere out there...

How is that Wired is NOT the media? What else would they be?

You're confused. Or you're not. Maybe you are. Where's my kitten? You're confused.

Actually, people have been time travelling since the stone age... Because I time traveled back from 2057 with a time machine and explained them how to use it. Not in our current timeline of course 
Too bad I never got to go back to the present because the software threw a NullReference exception

Wouldn't that be the rams? 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Sounds like regular steering to me.

You should use "widdershins[^]" and "deasil[^]" to avoid all confusion.
