Is the polarization of light from the blue sky vertical / horizontal / at some angle? How do you prove it?

I suspect that it is vertical as sunglasses are designed with their polarization axis being horizontal to cut away glare. I may be wrong though, hence I need input from you guys. Thanks in advance.

that they are completly irrational about it? I saw a few conservatives on here claim that the budget surplus that clinton had when he left office was due to Reagan, who left office 12 YEARS before, they actually believe this. They cannot admit he did anything right and the things he did do they give credit to someone else which makes no kinda sense. Reagan DIDN'T balance the budget, clinton did. to say otherwise just shows ignorance.

They also blame 9/11 on him, it's a sad day when the siting president doesn't have control over the country but I guess on 9/11 Bush didn't, clinton did. No mater Clinton's percieved mistakes it's the height of stupidity to place the blame for 9/11 on him, he MAY share the responsibilty but Bush was in office, wheres his blame?

Or is expecting rational thought and discussion from republicans too much?

& felt REAL stupid for it?

Last big one I can remember was when I was on the phone w/ a newish friend from school & we touched on religion. ( yeah. Uh oh...)

I told her I thought Jehovah Witnesses were SO annoying the way they hand out those dumb fliers & booklets & come knocking on your door, etc.

short pause.....

"I'm Jehovah".

I purchased a D-Link DI-524 router today. Connected it up, followed instructions, all well. Connected to the internet fine, all 3 computers were working great (one computer is connected through USB to the modem, the wireless router is connected to the modem through ethernet, and the other desktop is connected to the router through ethernet).

After a few hours, the connection choked on me. It became a local only connection and would not let me use the internet anymore. I've tried resetting the modem and router, reinstalling the router, changing the settings, putting the original settings back, everything I can think of. It simply doesn't connect anymore . Ideas?

I just repeated the setup process and my laptop now gets a 'local only' connection. I can't figure out why it won't connect to the internet anymore.

I would give the ball back to Barry Bonds if he wanted it because I'm sure that was a special moment and game for him. He has worked dhis way up to earning the lead and moment! Then they should put the ball in the hall of fame. What would you do?

I have asked many times, about several candidates; I have gotten a lot of negatives. So, if you don't want any Democrats and no Republicans, just who do you want. Do not tell me that you are going to exercise your right to not vote. If you are so stupid as to do that, then you deserve just whatever you get.

Four alternatives:
Virgin females who die are given to the men - but let's be realistic, not that many women die virgins!
Female babies who die are mystically converted to sexually adult virgins - but that's just sick!
Allah/God has a virgin assembly line in heaven to crank out rewards for new candidates.
There are very few righteous men so finding that many virgins is not a problem.

If you watched the Democratic debate last night moderated by Keith Oberman, did you notice John Edwards poor appearance/ showing? It seems like he needs some real coaching from his handlers - kind of Nixon/Kennedy "visual" TV debate problem....especially the continual eye blinking & he looks very slight in stature compared to the other candidates - If I were coaching him, I'd suggest padded shoulder jackets & lifts in shoes for starters....and he should be "planted" with legs firmly rooted to the floor - not swaying back and forth...it really weakens him....kind of a TV appearance 101 crash course. I am not for or against him...still looking at the field - but I was surprised in this media age to see someone with such a lack of tv appearance savvy.
