mircea_popescu: the mess hall being the principal argument pro-university in the classical period of universities too.
mircea_popescu: lol i find the best and most readily digested argument pro-slavery works out to "i say where we go eat. it takes all of thirty seconds. and if i say everyone gets lamb tikka masala, ordering takes thirty seconds too."
ben_vulpes: it's like figuring out where to go to lunch: "no. you vetoed tacos. that means you figure out where we're going. now."

nubbins`: but officer, i was harvesting this ergot for my migraines
decimation: "DEA acknowledges that not all of the designer drugs seized in the effort are listed on Schedule I. But the agency says prosecutors will rely on a federal law that allows these nonlisted compounds to be treated like a controlled substance if they are proven in court to be chemically or pharmacologically similar to a Schedule I drug." LoL as if a jury knows
asciilifeform: (where X is the mass of reagents found on the condemned)
asciilifeform: incidentally, usg proclaims that 'reagents' plus 'intent' is judged like X kg of final product. which usually sums to life-at-hard-labour.
decimation: as usual, usg is there to help http://cen.acs.org/articles/90/i35/US-Criminalizes-Designer-Drugs.html
