Good News: On the other hand, Alqaeda is having trouble finding anyone who likes them.
====================
Praise the Lord and pass the Mayonaise...
Father Z links to the reason:
the Casimir effect...
Explanation: This tiny ball provides evidence that the universe will expand forever. Measuring slightly over one tenth of a millimeter, the ball moves toward a smooth plate in response to energy fluctuations in the vacuum of empty space. The attraction is known as the Casimir Effect, named for its discoverer, who, 50 years ago, was trying to understand why fluids like mayonnaise move so slowly. Today, evidence is accumulating that most of the energy density in the universe is in an unknown form dubbed dark energy. The form and genesis of dark energy is almost completely unknown, but postulated as related to vacuum fluctuations similar to the Casimir Effect but generated somehow by space itself. This vast and mysterious dark energy appears to gravitationally repel all matter and hence will likely cause the universe to expand forever. Understanding vacuum fluctuations is on the forefront of research not only to better understand our universe but also for stopping micro-mechanical machine parts from sticking together.

two thirds of people want to buy from a "green" business, according to one poll...
Only two thirds? What did the other third answer: Nah, I live in Minnesota and support global warming?
they also ignore the obvious: If a woman is working full time, and has to spend more time and money (including gas money) to go to an eco friendly store, she won't do it.
