I've noticed as I track a thread that all of the sudden the title gets changed. I'm not exactly sure how this happens. I'm guessing it happens when someone replies via email. If you are replying via email, please don't change the subject in the subject line, and if your replying via email make sure that it doesn't have "re:" before... más »

In Memorandum of Sir Johnny.
|
| |
In memorandum of one of the greats, Sir John Dankworth. [link] I was blessed to hear him and his wife, most likely my favorite female vocalist of all time, back in the early 90s in California. Even though they didn’t make it as big here as elsewhere, this doesn’t detract... más »

What negative effects has religion had on society?
|
| |
I am starting two parallel threads here: This one on the negative acts and effect of religion and religious people, and the other on the positive deeds and effects. Religions and religious people have done some really bad stuff, despite that they say they are so good. Some of it is in the news, some is hidden and some is just accepted by society with little... más »

|
| |
As everyone knows, we are sharing this earth with a few other closely related species. Of these, bonobos and chimpanzees are the closest relatives. Chimpanzees are aggressive but show remarkably advanced traits of societal learning. Certain tribes learn tool use and continue in that specific use differently than nearby tribes. I'm not suggesting that... más »

Another fine university takes a horrendous step in a disastrous direction
|
| |
For some reason, nonsense rules the minds of the uneducated. Homeopathy is one of those nonsense topics. It's bad enough that the homeopathic promoters don't understand the first thing about medecine, biology, chemical interactions, etc., why do otherwise intelligent people and organisations lend them credibilty by allowing them to... más »

Body Modification

So I'm quite a fan of this, as a mutli pireced and tattoed man, I'm now feeling the tattoo itch again (forgive me father it has been two years since my last tat), I have the design all ready I know where I want it, and by the end of the month the cash will be in my pocket and away I'll go. I was also thinking of a Prince Albert (if I can manage to persude the... más »
