    because it appeals to you personally, just like some religions appeal to different people's sensibilities. there's no reason why the theologian can't be a practical man and like the honda better. personally, i'd rather have the porsche (but only to sell it for some cash, get something like a grand prix, and have fun with whats left... porsche's have big ugly round asses, imho).

    however this is the difference between a person's opinion and actual knowledge and reasonable thought. and they shouldn't be made to direct comparison because they are apples and oranges my friend. the person you replied to was basically correct, there isn't any science behind beliefs. it seems its just there until its proven wrong. and when it is, then the followers of that faith become even more loose in their original interpretations of their scriptures so they can adapt while keeping some aspect of their treasured identity. it's happening even now with christianity in america.

    evolution is a great example of science at work. religion is basically an expanded, groundless opinion (scientifcally speaking of course, we've all seen the televangelists who holler about their own personal revelations and divine experiences until their faces are beet-red) of how the world works and thats all.

    Is it all official and stuff that 1 = .999999(...)?

    I learned this in 8th grade (1/9=.1111..., 2/9=.2222..., 3/9=.3333... and so on and so on. 8/9=.8888..., 9/9=.9999=1). I wonder what the philosophers say.

    I think this is the building that you see on your right hand side if you take the Broadway on-ramp onto westbound I-10. Nice looking building that says iisweb.com on the front.

    yeah... I have the KT7A-RAID... it has never let me down. I got it when I originally bought an Iwill KK266 (or whatever it was) and it was dead. When I returned it to Fry's Electronics the return guy quipped "More of an 'Iwont' huh?"

    The only EPoX board I've bought was awhile ago, the MVP3G-M (a Super7 board I used with an AMD K6-III 450).

    I got it because it was the highest rated board for its type. It never failed me, and I'm certainly glad I got it.

    Rock solid, good drivers. EPoX's website was always friendly. I never had a reason to contact their customer service though.
