Definition #3 from Dictionary.com: the medical history of a patient.
Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I should have looked in dictionary instead of just googling it. And if his story is correct, he has an excellent point. If homeopaths are spending a good deal of time with their patients getting their history than doctors do and getting more accurate diagoses as a result, then they're performing a valuable service, even if their actual cures are bunk.
but it is a fact that planets and celestial objects have an effect on human behaviour and the environment.
No, it's not. The sun and the moon have effects. So does anything that actually runs into the Earth. Everything else is too damn far away.
Ask any police officer or health care provider how people act during the full moon. They will almost always tell you that they are busier and people are crazier around that time of the month - consistently - although they can't quite explain why.
And, guess what? They're wrong. They remember the weird stuff that happens during the full moon because they expect weird stuff to happen during the full moon. Numerous studies have been made looking for the so called "Lunar effect". No actual correlation between human behavior (including police calls, emergency room visits and such) and the full moon has been found,
To think that there is absolutely no basis in truth regarding astrology is simply wrong.
Is simply right. There is no known mechanism by which the planets or other stars could affect human life on Earth in this fashion. It's bunkum, pure and simple.
The practice of astrology would not have survived for thousands of years if there were no truth to it.
The evidence shows fairly conclusively that selective remembering of evidence and wishful thinking is perfectly capable of sustaining a practice with no basis in reality for several thousand years. It's happened a lot of time. People sincerely worshipped Zeus for thousands of years. Do you believe in Zeus?
Appears largely be so, yes. This muppet has held the seat continuously since 1987. Last election he won the seat by nine points (runner up was Lib Dem, not Labour, incidentally).
Anamnesis is a philosophy that we subconsciously know information from our past lives. "Anameticist" isn't a word. I have no idea what word you actually meant to use.
Why would you use virtualization in such an environment?
I can sum it up in one phrase: No. Hardware. Downtime. Ever.
VMWare's solution enables you to move production servers at will without ever halting execution. Any hardware upgrade/replacement will have zero downtime. Even a hardware failure can be automatically migrated away from before it takes down the server and fixed without any down time.
If operator overloading is only useful for mathematical constructions, why not simply bake those things into the language and be done with it
Because there are an infinite number of possible mathematical constructions. You can't bake them all into the language; you need to provide facilities for the programmer to write his own.
Where do babies get them from? Surely there is no interintestinal transfer from mom to womb.
The child's intestine gets colonized during childbirth. That's been discovered to be one of the problems with Caesarian section, in fact. The baby's large intestine doesn't get the proper bacterial colonization.
In ancient Rome the children where legally the property of the father until they where old enough.
Actually, according strict traditional Roman law, sons were the legally the property of the father until he died. Daughters were his property until they married, at which point they became the property of their husbands' fathers. It became usual for a father to emancipate his sons when they came of age, but if he didn't, they remained his property.
They still have Section 265 in their Constitution so I can't deny God and hold office in the state.
So utterly in contravention of the US Consitution as to be laughable. If it hasn't been struck down, it'll be only because no federal court has heard a challenge to it yet; the first one made will succeed.
You've obviously not interacted with public school management much. Generally speaking, they're deathly afraid of anything anyone from any side of the political spectrum might take offense at.

Then by all means, sit down.
Kelley, Doohan, now Nimoy...the inevitable march of time.
They tried one, but the networking code proved to be such a performance drag that they abandoned it for a Wayland chip.

What if you're not working on the next Grand Theft Auto?
"This time it's different."
Of course they believe that. If the online stores make more money, that's "enhanced", isn't it?
Magic is how the average person and media assume anything technical works. Computers, cars, elevators, lighting. Hell, even plumbing.
...what I'm pondering?

I beg to disagree.
They've already done that...
I see XFCE every time I boot up my computer. They seem to be the only Linux desktop willing to maintain a working relationship with sanity.

Elementary school in the US lasts until age 12. Primary education in the UK is about the same.
So I guess it's appropriate that the principal is a muppet.

This has been going on for some time now:

Of course not. Obama has no expectation that this will ever pass. It's a rhetorical club to beat the Republicans with.
