The idea that the earth is flat is a modern concoction that reached its peak only after Darwinists tried to discredit the Bible, an American history professor says.
Jeffrey Burton Russell is a professor of history at the University of California in Santa Barbara. He says in his book Inventing the Flat Earth (written for the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's journey to America in 1492) that through antiquity and up to the time of Columbus, 'nearly unanimous scholarly opinion pronounced the earth spherical.'
Russell says there is nothing in the documents from the time of Columbus or in early accounts of his life that suggests any debate about the roundness of the earth. He believes a major source of the myth came from the creator of the Rip Van Winkle story-Washington Irving-who wrote a fictitious account of Columbus's defending a round earth against misinformed clerics and university professors."
As a woman, I'm not too fond of Valentine's Day (every year before this, I've been single. Have a boyfriend this year too. But honestly, I don't want the "Saying I love you because it's a day where one has to" I'd rather downplay Feb 14 entirely. And have him show me he loves me on OTHER days of the year. Shoot, even anniversaryes are better than Valentine's because it is special to US. And I hate that he's probably fretting over this exact same thing and it doesn't matter to me if we do anything special at all! I just want the time with him regularly, etc. -- (and NOT to "get laid" -- I'm VERY old-fashioned that way. Not until we're married. We both are actually. And besides, it seems to me to be VERY dismissive of the woman to suggest that a few presents can "buy" sex from her. Makes her into an object or whore, not someone one truly cares for) I very much agree with the whole idea of what I am looking for is verification that he remembers/thinks about me even when we're not together.
Not because some external holiday is reminding him that he better. But because he cares.
And as long as I have THAT we can wipe Feb 14 off the calendar.

actually. We aren't a true democracy.
We are a democratic republic. They ARE elected to do what they believe is right for us. NOT to give us bread and circuses.
>>In windows' defence, I will say that I recently bought a sony PC which had a slew of preinstalled software at no extra price - Premere LE, Sound
Forge and ACID, Photoshop LE, and a media player which wasn't as good as iTunes, but definitely beat windows media player. If the normal version
of windows did all of this, I'd be happier, but it doesn't, and requires a lot of extra (expensive) software do it. Apple bundles utilities to do all these
things INTUITIVELY, and intergrates them well into the OS. If you want something more powerful, go get Final Cut, photoshop, premere, etc. But,
for most people, the iApps are fine<<
Microsoft gets sued and screamed at when it attempts to bundle more...
This actually DOES explain something I've noticed recently in a couple of local newspaper's Opinion page. I just assumed it was the same person sending the same letter to several different papers.
I'd go back and post links except one of the papers involved only keeps them around for 2 days:(
But I can see why they are going to take more seriously opinions that a person takes the time to think about rather than just signing their name to the end of a pre-generated letter and sending it along.
It's kind of like the difference between a letter and a card.
There is more care and attention when someone thinks their own words through than just copy and paste another's.
How much bandwidth is consumed by a night's play on an online game like Everquest? Could it be that bandwidth is being taken, not by file downloaders, but by the many online games that are now popular, and have people logged on all night every night -- sometimes with many computers hooked up to one connection?
The reason support is so bad sometimes is that they are paid pittance compared to what they are expected to do -- and they have problems keeping employees.
Companies are trying to keep costs down as much as they can, and support is often an area they skimp on. And when you DO get hired by support, you are judged, not on your success in answering questions, but on how many calls you answer in a particular period of time.
If you are in the Seattle area I highly suggest you try out Eskimo North They also have numbers elsewhere. They are a mom and pop ISP that allows shell access and everything.

Anyone know if the amazon.com version has the CD?
I'm WAY behind on the Honor series, but I do like the series. And this seems well worth the price.
