    But But Killing Hitler also insures that Mecca and Medina are also nuked in 1952 for the rich oil reserves of the Saudis. Stalin's ruthless purged effectively wiped out the Shiia and almost all of the Sunni leaving nothing but Bedouins. The fact that the bulk of the Jewish scientists collected themselves in America due to the war is incidental. So lets see, Nuclear desert and Russo-Chinese domination on half of the world or Us alone and an insane middle east. I don't know if NYC is really worth the whole of the middle east. But Right now I happen like NYC too much.

    That is a valid question. It seems lately that Humans aren't interested in natural selection. We are interested in statis. We wanted everything to remain exactly the same. No changes at all. And if evolution is true, then things will die off regardless of our input or lack there off. Then people run screaming ZOMG! and waste money because we are at fault. And if evolution is a lie, then the same thing happens and they include God in the mix.

    No, because they were squatting on a private park at the behest of the park's owners who choose to allow it to be open 24/7. The owners said it was becoming a health a safety issue and requested NYPD assistance in cleaning it up. The NYPD decided to do it a 1 am and enforce the citywide 'no camping in parks' ordinance.

    Considering Fracking as an interjection ("Frack!"), inquisitive idiom ("What the frack?"), verb ("You're not still frackking Dualla, are you?"), adjective ("Get your motherfrackking hands off me!"), adverb ("You frackking crazy idiot!"), a noun ("You miserable frack"), ("A good frack"), (to Starbuck "I guess a pity frack is out of the question") or in compound words ("What a clusterfrack."), ("Motherfrackker!"), or as almost every word in a sentence ("frack the frackking frakkers.") it stands a replacement for a more vulgar word, I doubt it.

  21. Re:Where are all the Guatemalan Insanity Peppers on Can the Hottest Peppers In the World Kill You? · · Score: 1

    the fact that they aren't real peppers is what gives.
    "There is an episode of the Simpsons where Homer eats chilli with
    "insanity peppers" and starts hallucinating. Is it actually possible
    to eat something so spicy it causes temporarty insanity and
    hallucinations? Does such a pepper exist?

    "Endorphins, those natural drugs that are 100 to 1,000 times more
    powerful than morphine, are released into our brain when we eat hot
    chile peppers, according to Dr. Frank Etscorn of New Mexico University
    (who also holds the first patent on the nicotene patch). Like other
    psychotropics, including peyote, coca and tabacco, chile peppers alter
    our state of consciousness. In the case of chile peppers the high is
    non-hallucinogenic, but it is addictive. Chili addicts are hooked on
    endorphins. "We get slightly strung out, but it's no big deal," he
    says." - Quote from The Veiled Chameleon
    http://www.veiled-chameleon.com/archives/000042.html

    "We need a fix of red or green chile with a side order of endorphins,"
    said Dr. Frank Etscorn, then an experimental psychologist at New
    Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology in Socorro, and inventor of
    the nicotine patch, in a 1990 article for the Albuquerque Journal. "We
    get slightly strung out on endorphins, but it's no big deal. That year
    he posed a theory that the warm afterglow and the constant craving for
    chile are due to capsaicin triggering the release of the body's
    natural painkillers called endorphins, which have been called "the
    body's natural opiates," are the cause of the so-called runner's high,
    and are capable of turning a painful experience into a pleasurable
    one." - From the Chili Pepper Counterculture Robb Walsh, Austin
    Chronicle, Friday, May 3, 1991

    More on peppers and "runners high."
    http://www.prweb.com/releases/2004/3/prweb111083.htm - "Exercisers Get
    Workout Boost From New Hot Pepper Nasal Spray"

    "The chemical capsicin is fooling your nerves into believing that they
    are burning in hell, when in fact nothing is wrong with them at all.
    And your dumb body rushes all those painkillers to those special
    receptors in the brain. That's a pretty good practical joke, huh? Pass
    the hot sauce." - Quote from The Veiled chameleon - but I wish it were
    mine.

    So, overall, while the pepper is a vegetable which has consciousness
    altering properties, it is not 'officially" considered to have an
    hallucinogenic property. I emphasize the word "officially" as there
    are those who consider any element of consciousness altering at all,
    as a hallucination. That is why I said "yes and no" in my opening.
    The definition of "hallucination" is somewhat subjective in popular
    understanding."
