    Smart people tend to get laid more easily..

    What are you talking about? You are the one who began equating this scientific investigation with religion, and you are disproving your own statement. Convenient? The term religion is based on claims derived from supernatural origins that by definition cannot be proven or disproven...

    Oil drop.

    Any argument about the price of gasoline dropping from $4/gallon to $3.50/gallon when gasoline was $1.50 only 5 years ago is a insane. http://www.swivel.com/graphs/show/11909967 Someone is getting rich, and it has nothing to do with Chinese consumption.

    CBS Canceled Jericho X2

    Battlestar Galactica, Atlantis and SG-1 reruns are the only things I still watch on SciFi anymore. Hell, once BSG is over I may just cancel my cable subscription; not much else out there that's worth watching.

    Artificial nucleotide base pair created

    Can you cite your source, janjetina? And from my perspective I'm not sure the usefulness of an additional pair of bases. Fact is that the current base pair system is already more than enough to encode the 20 amino acids used in all proteins. A far better and more useful application would be...

    Is The Earth Growing?

    Did you intentionally spell Dopamine wrong, or are you just that dense?

    Ok, here's another one

    The book was much better than the movie. As is usually the case. Anyways, going into these flicks with an expectation beyond the visceral 'BOOBIES!' is the problem here.

    Japanese parliament questions 9-11 "truth"

    Why is it so hard to believe that Al Qaeda and its agents were the ones who profited, resulting in the financial irregularities eveidenced in this particular conspiracy theory? Osama et al knew enough about capitalism and markets to despise them; does this mean they're above taking advantage...

    After a 6 year wait....

    I thought this was gonna be about Duke Nukem Forever. Silly Murdoch.

    A New "I Am Legend" Movie

    It's a question of intent. AvP is not supposed to be 'good', rather a simple action flick. It does not disappoint, nor try be what it isn't. I Am Legend on the other hand...

    So Cute They'll Sicken You

    Flesh-eating and Giardia are the cutest. What? :look:

    A New "I Am Legend" Movie

    Agreed on all points. Although Will Smith was ok. I was sorely let down by this film. AVP2 would have been a better use of my time and money.

    Lakota indians declare independence from US

    Their situation is not about seceding from anything. They are renouncing their treaties with the US. There's a difference.

    Girl in india born with 4 arms and legs

    I think the real question is: If the child had 8 limbs, wouldn't it be more appropriate to say "the children". Or at least more creepy.

    Hiroshima bomber dead

    I too watched the documentary The War like SimpleMinded, and have discussed the subject in history courses. As stated in my original retort the Japanese (not Japs, which is offensive to Japanese, Carib), were uniquely suited towards their single-minded in their pursuit of war. Few other modern...

    If you tolerate this, then your children might be next

    I'm not defending the artist's actions, or, more importantly the actions of the gallery that hosted the event. I'm simply pointing out the larger context that no one in this thread has seemed to see, beyond their own sense of righteous indignation. Honduras and Central America in general are...

    Hiroshima bomber dead

    It's amusing when this thread and its forebears pop up periodically on this forum. To see the revisionism and justifications we invoke in The Bomb's defense or trashing is refreshing. :eyebrow: Judging the actions of the Truman administration from current rules of what's 'right' and...

    If you tolerate this, then your children might be next

    Has it occured to anyone that the outrage the artist has elicited from the media in general and this thread in particular may be exactly what the artist is going for? Life in Central America is not valued the same as it is in Europe and N America. Perhaps you all should attempt to look...

    Studying abroad challenges, frustration

    Getting good grades should be a reward unto itself, man. If grades are not the leading criteria for Monash, what are they, and how do you rate against them? But as has been stated above, apply to Monash anyways. Consider other places as well, though, such as New Zealand maybe. If you're...

    The Boondocks

    The new season seems alot more about physical comedy than about the message or ideas. Amusing, certainly, but not really why I'd watch the cartoon.
