Almost correct. Except TCP doesn't look at UDP packets coming in, it looks at IP packets where the protocol field equals 6. TCP and UDP are two different protocols. There just happen to be some similarities (the notion of "ports" for instance)
The difference is that mentioning PGP to the average person give you a HUH? at best, while everyone knows zip, so secure-o-zip won't be a big change for them.
The reason I refer to it as "your kind of creationism" is that I have encountered a lot of different takes on it. Some are very strictly bound to the bible (the earth is flat and 6000 years old), others argue that the world may well be billions of years old, but was still created by god, and all species were created as they are now. There are also people who think changes within species do occur (any dog breeder can tell you this is true,) they just won't become "other" species. There are also people who don't make any assumption about what deity created life, they just claim it was created by some supreme being. This make a lot of difference in a discussion.
Of course, this also happens in the evolutionary circles, where for instance the age of the universe or the exact mechanism of evolution is sometimes hotly debated.
I agree that most discussions about this tend to run around in circles (on both sides.) I like to think I don't do that.
I am convinced there's an awful lot I don't know, and an awful lot I think I know is probably false. The very existence of anything in the first place puzzles me greatly, but I don't think the existence of an omnipotent God who created the world 6000 years ago, does anything to explain that better.
Maybe we should leave it at that. Neither of us is a biologist, geologist, paleontologist or theologist (I assume,) so all we can do is throw someone else's research around.
They should take some time to understand the creationist view before I talk to them again.
You mean I should understand that some uberbeing created the world <10000 years ago, deliberatly making it look like it's much older than that, and burying some fake fossils etc. just to fool us?
You're right, that will take some time to understand.

Anyway, I dont have kids, soon, and (...)
What, you're gonna kill'm all?

Maybe it's just that my current gf seems to appreciate the direct approach better (with or without the booze.)
:P
Or maybe I'm just really unconvincing with the sensitive/romantic stuff. The snickering probably doesn't help either
not too sure about number 4, it sounds a bit corny. I'd go for: "This is nice. Wanna get nekkid?"
Make sure she's on top though, otherwise you'll miss the shooting stars.
Don't forget to wait until it's dark

That should be:

- ????
- No Profit!

Hey, this guy offers $10,000.00 to anyone who can disprove his *AHEM* theory, and no-one has taken HIS money.

If that's what it takes to prove a point with you, I can understand why you'd consider creationism as a valid theory.
But please, try to explain it. Or at least give a link to where your kind of creationism is explained best.

I did something and then something happened. This is not interesting for anyone else but me.
Does that sum up you post?
No, 23% Didn't understand the question.
because you can't even get a simple winmodem to work with it.
It's gotta be weather balloons. It's always weatherballoons. Big, fiery, exploding weatherballoons
'Cause there's pr0n on it?
from your sig: Has "War on Terror" become a euphemism for "Settle Old Scores"?
Yes. Vietnam will be next.
So, lots of school girl tentacle rape then?
That would be Justkiddium and Stillkiddium, right?
So? When the current one gets old and ugly in 18 years time, I got 3 fresh ones coming up. That's even better.
I'd clone my girlfriend (2 or 3 times should be enough)
Imagine the possibilities!
would you go back to doing it once you are released?
I *think* I might know the answer to this one, assuming he wants to have a chance to get out on parole one day.
Er, no it's not a fallacy.
What he said amounted to:
"All New Yorkers must be Americans"
so
"If you're not from America, you're not from New York."
which is perfectly true.
remember: (a ==> b) == (!b ==> !a)
