I'm probably going to be there for a week in late November/early December; if you're there then, there's a chance you might actually get to meet the wiggin. It's a (dubious) honor I don't think anyone here has yet to achieve. ;)Quote:

Now, to figure out what is wrong that causes the BSOD during boot up and why I can't even boot up from my PE or Win 7 repair disc.
Edit: Had to rebuild the boot record, but I'm back on the Win7 machine. Still no idea what caused it though. Oh well, at least it works.
How to explain Lewk with a single study:

So in other words scientists release a study indicating just thinking about science makes people more moral?Quote:

That about sum it up? ;)
The difference being that only one of the three will provide you with a way to replicate the results.
I think you summed it up perfectly. Thats the great thing about science, its true no matter what your opinion is.Quote:

If we take the final truth to be absolute knowledge of the workings of the natural universe in its entirety.
Sure, but at any given moment, it's quite likely that what we know is wrong in some (frequently important) way. But it's better to admit that and constantly try to get better than to pretend to know the final truth and discourage people from trying to find otherwise.

San Francisco was cool, but Alcatraz was awesome.
Yosemite on the other hand, breathtaking. Truly epic!
Moldy food, broken and mislabeled elevators, and cold hot tubs couldn't stop my from enjoying my carnival cruise. Insane how different being a tax haven can make a country, comparing the Cayman islands and their 500 banks to places like belize and hondorous
My kids' grandpa is going to be part of a WWII Veteran honorarium. Some 80 men, all in their 80's, are flying from around the country to Washington DC, each with a dedicated 'escort'. They're going to get a VIP tour of the War memorials and monuments, Arlington cemetery (and possibly the Capitol building and White House). :)
He has Alzheimer's disease, and many of the men are frail and debilitated in some way.....so everyone is hoping it goes well.
Hopefully they won't try to stage a coup. :p

I was given a corporate credit card with no limit. Who wants a pony?
Well, i could use some money, see the messing with groove thread, so bring it on!
I want a pony!
Made tomato soup from scratch today, very pleased with the result. Didn't use a recipe, just my own ideas about how a tomato soup should be and taste.
