Is the battery power of a car indicative when headlights seem dim?
Q. I'm curious because I'd rather be on the safe side and not be stranded. It seems when the power gets low, the headlights seem dimmer. But that's just my theory. Thanks!

A. I recommend you drive to your local auto parts store or battery service center and have a free battery and charging system check done on your car. If your battery is over 5 years old, I recommend you have them install a new one while your there. Winter's coming, at least in these here parts!

Is the Government's disdain for US autoworkers indicative of the RedsStaters desire to reinvigorate slavery?
Q. It looks to me like Congress defiantly loathes working class Americans. The zeal they show giving the Tax Payers money, to their Banker friends, is obviously a sign of who they love.

A. I can't believe I am going to say this but here goes...I think Bush will step up to the plate on this one. Where is the fairness in these bailouts? $700B for the banks, no strings attached, and refusal of a mere 2% of that for an American Icon? Car manufacturers are hurting everywhere, not just in Detroit, but worldwide. Sweden, a tiny country, stepped up for Saab with 3B. That is a lot of $$ for them. Besides, there is a big difference between bailout and bridge loan. Shame on the Senator's who wish to kill organized labor.

Is religion indicative of a psychiatric disorder?
Q. I mean irrational belief patterns and all that.
Asked by pix42 - Mon Jun 2 11:44:55 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Religion is a means to an end. A method for the ruling elite to obtain power and wealth, and to maintain control over the masses through fear (such as the Inquisition, or, nowadays, the threat of going to "hell"). Bow before your god, give to the church, or eternal damnation awaits! Blind, unquestioning faith to a vengeful god! Scared people back then, and scares 'em now. Ever wonder why a congregation is called a "flock"? Baaa.

Realis moods are a category of grammatical moods which indicate that something is actually the case (or actually not the case); in other words, the state of which is known. The most common realis mood is the indicative mood, or declarative mood.

Indicative

Look up indicative in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

The indicative mood or evidential mood is used for factual statements and positive beliefs. All intentions that a particular language does not categorize as another mood are classified as indicative. It is the most commonly used mood and is found in all languages. Example: "Paul is eating an apple" or "John eats apples".
