    That space toilet issue was referenced in an episode of The Big Bang Theory when one that Howard made began to malfunction. I can’t think of what happened when it failed in space.

    We are about 14 days out of sync, or extra. The question is where do you put them. The Global warmers are making a killing by match temperature with days on the calendar. What would the weather pattern be like if they inserted the 14 days and adjusted the seasons.

    First depiction of human excrement I’ve seen in a comic strip. Figures, given the gruesome details we’ve read before.“Be-leap” is kind of cute, but the fact is easy to believe.

    We don’t follow the right calendar or it’s just that out calendar is all mixed up-that’s why we have leap years.

    Why do they need a vacuum pump when outer space is all vacuum?

    It’s just that the universe resembles a belt driven rather than a gear driven machine, ie nothing comes out even. Since a leap year every four years was an overcorrection to the calendar, 3 out of 4 century years are dropped as leap years, ie 1700 1800 1900 were not leap years, neither will 2100 2200 2300. Thus, Feb 29,2000 happened only once every 400 years. This correction is to keep the calendar in step for the next 10,000 years or so.The old Egyptian calendar used only 365 days. It became so far out of step that it was back in step after apx 1450 years.

    I always wondered how they handled that in outer space!

    Agreed. I should have specified century years not just 2000.You are the second most observant man in history.(The first was the historian that noted that Lady Godiva was riding a WHITE horse!)

    The AGW hoax believers are Leftheads and their dupes, with no regard for human freedom or real economics- the sort who can convince, or be convinced, that making Al Gore richer will somehow stop the Sun from warming up the Earth and other warming planets. Which are you, TCL?
