Do you know your Celsius? Should Celsius be the temperature scale by default when talking temperatures, after all it's the most used scale?

FOR FOUR YEARS. Otherwise we have to take their word for it. Now how much is the "word" of PET worth on the open market and his kids are chips off the old block so lying for them would be no problem either.

I had an operation that replaced the frozen stapes with a wire and my hearing has been perfect in that ear ever since. A wire. Opened up the world. Some folks have robotic limbs. They're not as good as the real thing but they do a pretty good job.

I was told it is because I will not give up power over myself to someone else. It exists on a subconscious level I guess because I really thought I wanted to be hypnotized just to see what it feels like. But it didn't work. I just don't have the right stuff to be hypnotized. I wonder if that would also apply to brainwashing?
if you could turn all the calories from an acre of corn into gasoline energy, you would never have to go to the gas station again? Is this even interesting?
