  • I don't know if you were being cynical or not by asking where the Mayans are, but the answer is: Mexico. Not all of them died out, some survived and are living today.

• Do you support U.S. involvement in an international military force against Libya's Gadhafi?

  • On paper it sounds great that we are dealing a great blow to a dictatorship. Unfortunately we've tried this tack before with Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Libya.

• Second nuclear meltdown likely under way in Japan, official says

  Sat Mar 12, 2011
  • To those who think that the nuclear reactor was not built with earthquakes or tsunami's in consideration I think you're all wrong. Japan gets earthquakes regularly, it's no big deal for them. They have very intelligent engineers and I'm sure they planned everything.

• Family booted from plane in dispute over infant seat

  • @GK-298121 United's special seating is called "Economy Plus", get your terms right before trying to reflect on it, it's not called "Premium Economy". So no it's not a contradiction in terms because you don't have your terms right.

  • Not sure who is to blame for this. The TSA agents are regular Joe Shmoe's like you and me. Problem is, the job they are doing, like pat downs, and the like, are not jobs that should be held by anybody.

• NYT: Cables shine light into secret diplomatic channels

  Sun Nov 28, 2010
  • I have not heard one report saying these leaks from Wikileaks are false. If these leaks are all true, why is there so much fear? If you do your job honestly and to the best of your ability what is there to hide? We all have skeletons, and don't need it all aired.

• Big mistake: $654 flight from NYC to Chicago

  Wed Jul 28, 2010
  • Beckey, you are mistaken. You may have had to pay a fee to change your flight by one day, but that's because the price for flying that particular day was $150 more. Southwest doesn't charge fees when you change the date.

• Big mistake: $654 flight from NYC to Chicago

  • Your assessment is not true icstars-1, sometimes fares will change arbitrarily throughout the course of a week. Your fare could be cheaper if you buy at midnight on a Tue as opposed to noontime on a Friday depending on the airline.

• Schwarzenegger sorry after workers cover 9/11 mural

  • I've lived in Seattle for the past year now and I can understand a little bit why people have hard time understanding CA's mentality. CA is a huge state. If you drove from the southern end to the northernmost tip it would take you a good 12 hours if not longer.
