So any polluter who dumps waste into a river is ok as long as the waste isn't actually *worse* than the river? You are making a distinction based on the idea that he is just returning the same water back to the river. But to anyone with a critical eye, he is drawing water, using it for an industrial purpose and when he wants to dump it into the river is required to meet pollution requirements.
What is wrong with that exactly?
I'm confused, how is this related to vermiculture?
Good grief, try thinking for once. I know it's a tall order for a lefty, but try.
It's just like a lefty; idiotic.
Are you sure that's safe? I'm not.

What's safe? You sound like Marathon Man. ;)

If I'm Marathon Man, I'm only allowed to ask you if "it" is safe, over and over :-).
restor>> So, tweak a few noses: do minimal work necessary for publishing,
I'm not so sure they wouldn't come after you for that also.
(GG on the tablet is fun, but it apparently doesn't let you quote context.)

Back in the late 80s or early 90s the USG tried to put the freeze on journals, and tried preventing some foreign nationals from attending conferences in the US. That was a great boon to the European conference hosts. ;)
There was a big court case, I forget which one, where this was tested, and the ruling was that unless the govt articulated a compelling and specific national security interest, or decided to classify your work, you could publish what you liked.
Since then there's been much less interference. In any case, the interference happened at the journal level more than the author level.
In any case, my particular work is aimed at making poor-quality infrared pixels somewhat better, rather than building the best of the best.

As long as you're not politically active they likely won't care. Irritate the King, however, ...

No. You would only be allowed to tell me if it is safe, while I drill holes in your molars... over and over.
MM was in the chair, not behind it.
paranoid much, MM?
If you perpetrate a compromise, 'they' *will* find you.
No, just being practical. This administration goes after its critics. I've seen it, and it's happened to me.
They'll make stuff up too. Believe it.
