When I was a preteen, I read the science fiction classics - not because someone forced it on me, but because the books themselves drew me in. I won't push my kids to read books they're not interested in, but I certainly don't plan on feeding them whitewashed drivel, either.
There really aren't that many steps in between. It's more like this:
1) Do the basic science 2) Ask your IRB for approval 3) Experiment on dogs 4) Ask your IRB for approval 5) Experiment on people 6) Use evidence to demonstrate that your procedure works 7) Procedure becomes mainstream
In case you were actually wondering, and not just making a roundabout point in opposition to animal research.
In medical research using animals, the animal is traditionally sacrificed for the purpose of accessing the tissue, seeing the anatomy, and gaining a more complete understanding of what actually happened during the experiment.
No, I'm worried about a world in which I have to divulge my social security number to private corporations online to partake in services that should never require such information.
Would I give a bank my SS#? Sure. Would I give my SS# to Yahoo? Not as long as there are other places where I can get free email and play fantasy sports.
Vasopressin is also known as antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH increases arterial blood pressure.
If the findings of this study are true, they may help explain the stereotype of the aggressive, ruthless management-type-figure with bulging neck veins suffering from a heart attack.
Would you prefer that the cops actually hire an underage girl to be present on site? That would obliterate your argument (as you've stated it so far), btw.
Yeah, if I were gay I'd probably sign up for your new little faction. Instead, I'm actually just amazed that you're an apologist for bigotry. Nice work!
I'm really impressed with the latent homophobia in nearly every single 'aprilfools' post so far today. The 'gay' tag? Is that necessary? It's really not funny.
Maybe you could put 'fag' next time instead? OMG, like that would be SOOOO FUNNY!!!
What you're saying makes intuitive sense. As soon as you actually take a look at the voluminous statutes passing through the Congress, though, you'll realize that it would be bordering-on-impossible for one human being to read and understand each piece of legislation that is being voted on.
In other words, with modern legislation as complex as it is, there is no way for each Congressperson to read each bill. They rely on soundbites from people whom they trust who themselves can only read (substantial) portions of the bills.
This is a great idea. For instance, I'm going to buy the "com" top level domain and sell subdomains off of my main account. For example, I'll sell you the "microsoft.com" subdomain for $10,000,000. ORG is less valuable, so I'll sell you Slashdot.org for $1.50.

With a name reminiscent of the cancer drug Gleevec, who wouldn't want to try it?
It is much, much faster to download many games/apps than it is to drive to Best Buy.

Strong point, well taken.

Because people like me would never, ever use their service under those conditions?
So you got to debate both the participants and the moderator... Sounds like a lovely forum.

Mod parent up for referencing the Hegelian dialectic.
Yes, they delete it. Except you can email them and ask them to reinstate it, and magically everything is still there, just the way you left it.

Perfect! Thank you, much better now.
Where are all the Massholes out there who should be screaming about how Massachusetts is a Commonwealth?

From your post, the criteria that the UN uses:
'race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin'
Clearly, even the UN can differentiate between race and etnicity. Are you showing me this just to bolster my point?
Hey, how come when I filled out my college apps I couldn't check 'French'? That must be a new one.
