I'm actually pretty sure I heard that was a fallacy, the medium does actually influence the speed of the photon. Don't have any sources to back it up though, just putting it out there.
I think the problem with that is the webmaster needs to be trusted to report their ad view statistics honestly. Problem for the hucksters that is, not for me.
If I kill people when I produce my product it makes me a murderer... Right. So exactly how many CEO's of companies responsible for releasing carcinogens into the environment have been convicted of murder?
I don't know what the hell Ron Paul thinks he's doing acting like part of that group of idiots He opposes Roe v. Wade, he opposes gay rights, and his voting record earned a rating of 75% from both Pat Robertson's Christian Coalition and James Dobson's Family Research Council. Maybe that's why he fits in with the Republican party.
There actually was a conspiracy that no one denies. U.S. gave weapons to the Taliban to fight the godless commie Russians. After they were done with that they turned on us and started harboring other religious nutcases. These guys then conspired together to attack the WTC. Sure that's a conspiracy, but it's not a conspiracy theory as they conspiracy nuts deal in. There is a difference. In a conspiracy theory, the conspiracy is the cover up to hide the truth from the public. Al Qaeda attacking the WTC is not a conspiracy theory.

No it's still not perfect, but it doesn't make atime useless since it preserves atimes ability to show if a file is still being used by anything.
I'd say it's not belief in a god alone that qualifies someone as a lunatic. Agnostic theist's tend to be a very reasonable bunch and probably most believers would fall under that catagory. It's only when someone think that they are right without any room for disagreement that they fall into the loony bin.
*nods* Buddha (who actually did write books, unlike any of your previously asserted authors) Really? I've always understood it that the teachings of the Buddha were passed down orally for centuries by his followers before they were ever written down. What books did he write?
But yeah you're right that the Buddha didn't care to speculate on the existence of god. He didn't consider it important.
Funny! I thought the actual pile of smoking concrete, metal and bodies was much bigger than the FUD. You would be wrong. A very conservative estimate of when the FUD surpassed 9/11 would be September 22, 2006. Now I say that's conservative because the cost of the FUD can be measured in far more ways then merely American body count. As those other costs are factored in the actual date quickly approaches September 11, 2001.
How do you figure? He doesn't say that the right to protect sources is in the Constitution (hence the need for this law), he only makes the case that this right is beneficial to a democratic nation.
A map of Internet2 without MIT? Somethings not right here...
This list [PDF] is better, and while it confirms that this particular college isn't on Internet2, University of Maine is a member. Your sleepy home state isn't entirely left out of the fun it seems.
The only stupidity in the whole affair is thinking oneself superior in dismissing any obviously subjective belief system as, well... "stupid". IT's far easier to leave well enough alone than to look like you're playing the snob card, no? I only said the stupidness of religion and astrology are correlated. Those who think religion is or isn't stupid are likely to feel the same about astrology. I didn't actually say I thought astrology was stupid. As for me, I wouldn't really call it stupid, more like a foolish waste of time if taken too seriously.
and yet there are still technical/modern equivalents of cave paintings that still sell for quite a lot of money... and receive highly-rated reviews by much of what comprises the art world. Are there? I'm not so sure of that. Certainly you could look at some simplistic abstract art such as Matisse's later collages and say they have about the same representational value as ancient cave paintings, however it's an apples and oranges comparison since the motivation of modern artists is very different. (presumably, I admit I can't say for certain that stone age men weren't doing study's on form and color)
"religion" as in: a belief system that represents a fundamental part of being human. Since when is that an agreeable definition of religion? By the way, astrology is religion so there is a direct correlation between the stupidness of the two.
Also, while it's true that astrology is an antecedent of much of modern science, it's also true that cave painting was a forerunner to Rembrandt. Most of humanity has made substantial intellectual progress over the intervening time.
Yes, and what a reliable recount that is to. What an amazing technological advance it will be to be able to instantly recount the same corrupted vote totals whenever you want.
Interesting, maybe I'll stop by the Library sometime around noon. Is a good excuse to have lunch down by the cove.
I'm a bit surprised such an effort has been made to unmask this mysterious poster. I can't call him a troll though really, all my experiences with him in the past have been quite positive.
I don't typically stalk you, but I've got to ask. Are you the homeless guy who I see sleeping on the bench in front of the Mary, Star of the Sea Catholic Church? That's the only homeless person I typically see in La Jolla but I don't think he has a computer.
Yeah it's a good thing, and to be fair it really is a hugely impressive amount of ocean that he set aside as a preserve. Regardless, it's sadly inconsequential compared to his massive fuck ups in every other area.

How exactly does a lifeform not run in realtime?
Or maybe OCD just isn't reported in poor countries because of the severity of their other concerns. Just a thought.
You're probably overlooking a lot of great music in your quest for great sound.
I agree, but I think public financing of campaigns would be the more relevant issue in this context.

Hmm, shouldn't she be the one confronting you?

If it makes you any feel better, knowing who that character is doesn't make you superior in the least.
Glad I could help.
