Did you know that the majority of our electrical infrastructure is based on technology discovered before the pyramids were built? Absolutely shocking!

Alot of it is based on things from before then...

Sure, but I was talking mainly about specific components and launch vehicles.

Oh, and I forgot China has an orbiter. The Soyuz is the only one taking people to the ISS though.

@_@

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Ancient Greece have most of the technology to potentially advance to modern day stuff[Steam power, electricity, etc]? Renaissance technology is mostly old Greek technology, after all. And they made the first analog computer. And humanoid automata.

The shuttles flew for almost 40 years, so thats something to note aswell.

And then you have some decommissioned ICBMs used as launch vehicles...

You know... I will never get over how hilariously terrible the "Straight Male" Stereotype is.

It is SO rare that I see it, but when I do I just laugh and laugh.

If you never seen it... Here are the tells
1) Straight people love sports and will usually mention it or watch it
2) Straight people wear either a sports jersey of some sort or a baseball cap
3) Straight people have a frat type relationship with other guys... Even if they have long since graduated or don't even know you
4) They often talk a LOT about how much they like women... a lot... like they are compensating for something

It reminds me of Boon Docks where Grandpa kept insisting that White people like cheese (We do by the way.) but says it in a completely ignorant manner just to be proven correct later on.

Well, :P I meant on average.

Trust me, get a GOOD cheese tray with spreaders and crackers (with good cheeses... If it comes in brick form or is pre-sliced, chances are it isn't a good cheese) at a party and it will be gone come morning.

Cheese is delicious. As long as you don't think about where it comes from, that is. So is celery. Celery is basically addictive.

I thought the stereotype for a straight male is just that they're a human male.

Y'know, mice are usually allergic to the SPIKIER bits of cats.Which is all of the bits. They're spikes all the way down.

Grak pls triggers trigger my headmate who is a trigger that is triggered by triggers.

Stirk must give him an apoplexy then.
