Correction:
Please look up the difference between "weather" and "climate" before continuing to display your lack of knowledge.

JSpence07,

The point both LarryVegas and jlb101 are incapable of understanding is that self sufficiency is a myth and as individuals humans can not exist without the cooperative efforts of many others. Witness this board which would not exist without the efforts of many programmers, The Las Vegas Sun, a reasonably reliable power grid, and many other community workers. In fact, the existence of the internet sprang from research that came out of government funded labs, as did the modern computer. From the clothes we wear to our means of transportation, the food we eat, the water delivered, the trash taken away, no one takes care of themselves. jlb101's statement about "...a moral obligation to take of myself..." is nonsense when the facts of how we exist are confronted. I would like to see people such as jlb101 start out from absolutely zero resources made by society and see how long they last. No clothes, metal implements, food, water, transportation, etc. In primitive societies misbehavior could lead to banishment which invariably led to death.

Alright children, enough with the playground taunts as it shows you are more like the rude parent than the polite adult.

Thank you to both JerryWayne and ksifferman for the information. We are going to try to hook a laptop up to a HD TV tonight at a friends place to watch the game.
