It is intentionally difficult to change the US Constitution. But also intentionally possible to do so.
The most recent amendment to the Constitution was adopted in 1992, having originally been submitted in 1789.(!!) Most are adopted or rejected in a much shorter time period, however, by means of "sunset provisions".
Currently, 4 amendments are pending ratification -- including one from 1861 that would prohibit the prohibition of slavery
BTW, the US constitution was initially ratified in 1787, not 1798, I'm told. <Dr. Julias Hibbert Voice> Perhaps this song will help.</Dr. Julias Hibbert Voice>

Thank you for that clarification. My year was just a random number to say it was not this century.
Think of getting this phone : http://www.catphones.com/en-gb/ instead of note 7. A total different animal...but still some cool features. Anyone bought one?

Thermal imaging looks quite interesting. It could have many uses. Wonder if it could be used to search for survivors in collapsed buildings after earthquake. Wish screen was bigger...
Acutally the Lenovo Phab 2 (coming out soon!) has "There's a wide-angle camera, plus infrared depth sensing and motion tracking" so maybe it has the potential to do similar but clearly is it not as rugged or waterproof...

Still keeping an eye out on this one..

I guess you can use it to search for body heat but I would assume it's short range so you can search for hidden poeple in your room
When do we get the disc phone with x-ray...
Indoor maps? No thanks. I'm more of an outside kind of guy...and I rather track down the the serials....sirals seiaiarals by myself rather than via an app

Nothing stopping you from using it outdoors or while splunking around cave networks. Could come in handy while trying to survive nuclear winter...

Brought to you by the more-money-than-sense department, which -- coincidentally -- is also responsible for the marketing of all things "rose gold".

Just saw a review of Android 7 and I just say this:
Sailfish OS still better than Android.

Prepare for flamewar since I decided to comment on the crap UI.
