So the link you provided is specifically addressing animal acupuncture.
Can you provide a link that involves humans?
My ex-wife used acupuncture for migraines.. kinda worked. I'm not sure it was placebo effect or actually doing anything.
It is weird that we are using time as a way to validate if something is legitimate or not. It'd be interesting if there was more scientific backing and if this organ plays some kind of role.
Thanks for your input on this topic it's good to hear from someone that has the expertise (presumably as I don't actually know you:-)).
What is your opinion on organic foods and whether this may impact the levels of pollutants in food? Is it negligible impact and there still are many toxic chemicals in organics?
I'm just wondering if you have any knowledge on this.
Thanks!
Are you a doctor? you state with seeming authority that puberty is extremely rare under 10... stating "10 per year on the whole planet"?
I'm not a doctor so maybe I don't understand female biology enough, but I was under the impression that a woman getting her period is the beginning of her fertile years... if this is true then I married one of your 1 in 10 women on the planet as my ex-wife got her period in the 3rd grade (8-9 years old).
Addtionally my girlfriend's daughter just got her period at 11, which is surprisingly close to your extremely rare 10 year old proclamation.
Being that I'm a slashdot reader the sample size of female humans I've been exposed to is pretty small... so am I off on this?.
My hope is that Nye sides steps the idea of debating Creationism v. Evolution and starts a dialog with Ham about the difference between religion and science. That one of these belongs in a philosophy class and the other belongs in a science class.
As other people have noted above there is no way Nye (the guy who is logically and rationally right in my eyes) can win a debate with this guy to the point where anyone who supports Ham will change their mind about Creationism; however maybe he can deflect the conversation to be actually useful.
I think the reality is what Danathar posted above said. That.. "You can't rationally argue somebody out of a position they didn't rationally get into." Which I'm sure is all of Ham's section..
What you said here: "If I am a bank making a loan what do I care about non-monetary gains?" is what the OP is talking about.
I think the logical conclusion you illustrate in your original post only covers the monetary analysis that a bank might make (as in how much do we profit from this)..and let me see if I can quote you on that... yep: "Bye bye profitability projections".
That's the only thing a bank cares about and that's fine it's what their supposed to do. I think, the OP is just trying to say that there are more important things to consider, things that can't be easily monetized. That's why bankers shouldn't be the final decision point on this IF what the summary claims is true, that nuclear power can prevent "the ravages of climate disruption".
... the telco doesn't want the city to build the network infrastructure because in the long run the telco will have to maintain it?
I presume that when a telco has the contract for the city they are under contract to maintain the lines?
Having said that, maybe TDS knows that it will cost them money to maintain a non-profitable network and they are suing because they don't want to be forced into it from the city.
Or I dunno, could be for profit too.

"Never ask for permission, always ask for forgiveness" confirmed.

Why was your dad in a women's bathroom? And why are there urinals in that women's bathroom???

Oh, not that kind of Church?

That's not a rational reponse because you've weighed the monetary costs/benefits but left out the non-monetary costs/benefits...
Thou doth protest too much methinks!
"..but I can tolerate one penis pump add every month or two" Actually I don't think it's spam if a company emails one of its customers.
