Dear smileynev,

What are the benefits of an adjustable gas-system as used on the FN-FAL, versus a fixed gas-system typical of the M-16?

Adjustable gas allows you to vary the pressure depending on the situation. Especially when fighting at various points above sea level, it provides you with the flexibility you need for a weapon in the 21st century where, at one moment, you might be fighting afghani militia in the mountains of Asia and the next you may be sent on a peace keeping mission on the southern coast of India.

The ability to adapt on the field of combat more then makes up for the added cost of each rifle.

How much of an effect will VOIP have on intercarrier compensation?

It will affect the entire phone industry, with intercarrier compensation just a portion of that. All phone companies will lose out as a result of decreased traffice and, as a result, they will be paying each other less when using each other's lines because.

How many licks to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop?

Depends on the chemical composition of your saliva, the force with which you lick, the surface area of your tongue, and the flavor of the tootsie pop.

Who is coffee? I'm assuming you are asking if they trade IN coffee? Given that most coffee growers are found in central and south america, and can easily be assumed that most major economic players do trade with these countries to supply their coffee needs. I would also go so far to say that the signing members of NAFTA probably export a signifcant portion of their coffee to the countries of Europe and the far east.
Ugh... that didn't help much.
 
How do the financial markets influence coffees trade? What are the currency concerns of the producers? Of the importers? of the end users?
