From my point of view, if IEC wants to clear the air about legacy confusion then they can change the stupid thermodynamic concept that emitting energy is a negative value. This junk idea was because it was set up by, essentially, boiler jocks who looked at it all from their now point of view (i.e., the system they were interested in lost heat).
Or don't they have the "nards" to take on a real problem?

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

You were caught in moderation - I let them through and deleted the "spare".

There is an automatic spam detector running, which is intended to catch the morons who try to post Baba, skin cream, illegal narcotics, forged passports, pills and creams I don't want to mention in a KSS forum, and a huge number of other adverts.
When it catches something (be it a message, a QA question, or an answer) it moves to a moderation queue so that a "real human" can look at it and decide if it's a valid post caught by accident, or a genuine piece of rubbish that needs shredding. But until an "appropriate member" has viewed the queue and decided, the item does not get published. That's what happened here: his message was trapped, and went to moderation, so it didn't appear. He assumed this was a mistake, and reposted it - which also went to moderation!
Hence if you look at S&A, you will see "Spammer from moderation queue" and such like, just listing a member - because the offending message was caught, and has been vaporised - and now we'd like the same to happen to the member, please!

Why? Because you don't get sent to moderation?
Heck, I have to approve some of my own posts from time to time!

Only because I've been here a few years and I'm trusted a bit.
It'll come in time for you, I'm sure. Help around the site a bit, try not to annoy people too much, and wait for the invitation.

Sounds like a dumb claim probably made by some tourism board.
Good thing "area" is so vaguely defined, because if you go by something a little less abstract such as country, this[^] disagrees rather strongly.
(and yes, I certainly realize it's not a country - to which I say, define "area", because I'm pretty sure anyone can come up with better counterexamples)
(I'm not saying it's not a nice and quiet place, I'm sure it is--I just tend to call out bold ridiculous-sounding claims such as this when they're rather trivial to debunk)

Indeed - and if you look at Antarctica, it has a area of 14,000,000 square Km and a population of up to 5000 (http://worldpopulationreview.com/continents/antarctica-population/[^]) so it's probably the lowest population density significant landmass on the planet.
The Pacific may be lower (depends, not sure how many ships and their crew there are at any one time).
