    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    Evolution is a readily verifiable fact, the theory part is we derived from a common ancestor. Religion, as we see it, is easily refuted even biblical scholars point out the blatant errors in the bible. But to take a point and use it to refute the whole idea is a logical absurdity, OTOH given my...

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    There are always fudge factors when attempting to apply it to reality, but I definitely concede the point. My issue with all knowledge is the limitation of the observation, just a physical chemist's distorted view of reality.

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    Yes, too many people treat science as if it is a religion. Of course Aristotle was wrong, so were all who came after. Even our current theories are flawed in some manner, does that make them not useful? Science is flawed in the sense that it's a tool which describes human thought rather than...

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    <- 2 years of grad school in applied physics. What are your credentials? No one wants to argue the points, just attack the person? Shocking! EDIT: Einstein believed in God. EDIT2: I have to go to work, so I won't be able to stick around to educate you on thinking for yourselves and not...

    Official ATOT HIP-HOP & Rap Thread!

    A friend tells me I have bad taste in rap because I prefer old school (NWA is comedic genius), Nate Dog/Warren G, or NAS to what he considers more hardcore rappers like Jay-Z. I may have lost a friend when I also described ICP as a certain part of a female's anatomy, not that I mind honestly.

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    That's not an argument against the unmoved mover, which is a thought experiment. It's a question of faith and speculation on your part that the solution to the question will be purely scientific. How is an arrow refuting Aristotelian physics? Have you ever studied physics?

    What an elegant, detailed solution to a philosophical question unresolved since Aristotle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unmoved_mover You must be a super geneyus.

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    I look at faith like this. We've convinced ourselves that we have thought and reason, why couldn't some other apparently animated complex chemical factory do likewise? On a large enough scale, couldn't that be what people would call God? Then there's the principle of the unmoved mover. All...

    A Creationists View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution

    Just talk to the creationists. Basic Darwin is irrefutable, and we've seen evolutionary events in our lifetimes (bacteria become resistant to treatment). If they're not stupid, and most really aren't just misguided, they'll never bother you again. Fossils were placed there to confuse the...

    Price of Medication here why?

    In my experience drug approvals and regulations are more lax in Canadia. They're moving towards FDA level regulation, but the US makes companies jump through crazy hoops. For method validations, which is my background, Canadia's requirements for drug substances (APIs) are comparable to what the...

    Recommend some moody/dark soul/blues/r&b

    I was thinking the same thing. Living for the City has a darkness to it, but I wouldn't call it dark unless you consider Michael Jackson dark. And Otis Redding? lol. Maybe Billy Holliday who is sort of a cross between Blues and Jazz (Lady Sings the Blues). Raped at age 11, a prostitute at age...

    Recommend some moody/dark soul/blues/r&b

    Miles Davis is Jazz, but Kind of Blue is one of the best albums ever. Some dark classical like Goethe Lieder or most things Wagner. Some really dark rap, too.

    Would you say grades are a pretty good indication of someone's intelligence?

    No... I used to study in school. I put myself through, you'd get these guys who were threatened with good grades. They'd say, oh, I only made a C but I don't study or some BS like that. They were also the ones interested in who got the highest grades on tests (I kept quiet but I liked to mess...

    Land Rover Vs Motorbikes in NYC

    Heck's Angels. Had a minor run in with a dozen guys in new-ish leathers on nicer bikes. Nothing really, but it reminded me of a story. My friend was getting into it with 3 guys in leathers that wanted to beat up his wimpish friend. I stayed back but my friend tells them he'll beat them up and...

    Gotta love USPS

    It's large volumes of unaddressed mail. Easily 5 times as much as real mail that has my address on it, probably more.

    Gotta love USPS

    I hate USPS, I'm kind of hoping they'll die the rest of the way soon. Around here they only have community mail boxes at the end of the street to save money on delivery drivers. Then they deliver crazy amounts of bulk mail and won't let me opt out (you have to contact the senders). I clear out...

    Land Rover Vs Motorbikes in NYC

    The bikers around here are much better, they were out when I got off work last year and they'd do their stunts without stopping traffic (although they did slow it). This year they got into a fight with each other, no civilians harmed. I always say this is the toughest part of the country (at...

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show thread

    TNG was bad at first, I blame Wesley Crusher. What they had from the get go, as mentioned in the post you're quoting, was Queue who gave hope for the series.

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    I had the same issue with the guy in my story. I was telling him that there were kids in the school crossing not 5 minutes before, and that it was time to stop driving. Every year with the weather change my leg stiffens, and the bike I was riding fell apart but I let the guy go because I felt...

    Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show thread

    I was real hopeful given Joss' involvement but I just can't bring myself to care about the characters. Too much pseudo pscience, I dunno. I didn't like Doll House either, maybe I'm just waiting on Firefly to return.

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    I was on a sidewalk, in front of a school xing, stopped on my bike some old guy runs a stop sign, jumps on the sidewalk to hit me. I was yelling at him he started shaking and I had to calm him down by talking nicely. I was hurt.

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    The problem is that I still do some of those things automatically now that I'm no longer in the crazy driving environment. I remember when I first moved back north someone would edge out part way into traffic and... That was the 1st one I stopped. I still drunk drive a bit but it's mainly...

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    I did it to someone else once. They tried to slam on the brakes when I was coming up on them but I was no where near them. I knew the cop liked to sit behind the sign, I just popped around to the right and they wanted to race. As soon as they got even I hit the brakes and they flew right past...

    Twirl the finger above the head, like their light. EDIT: The gif reminded me of this one time the crazy black lady tried to run people off the road for no reason. Did it to like 3 people that I saw, was laughing hysterically. Crazy is as crazy does. It's why I drive a 300k mile car, no one...

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    I got a guy great a couple of weeks ago. Going slow in the left hand lane, I guess he thought I came up on him too quick and did the right lane slow person block. I got past him but he floored it to stop me from passing. So I passed on the right when I could, pulled up next to him, flipped him...

    Anyone here ever been involved in a Road Rage incidient?

    Lots of incidents of people doing it to me, around here it's the old folks driving in the left hand lane below the speed limit trying to control how others drive. Last week on my way to work I tried to pass one and she tried to stop me by using the car in the right lane (I wasn't tailgating...

    Why don't you carry a gun?

    More like mass spec grade. Less than 5 9s is pretty low purity and ghost peaks. EDIT: I mean the reagents, but the similar but higher priced commodity I used to test was >99.9.

    AT&T service installation nightmare

    I had a lot of trouble switching to U-Verse. Couldn't get the phone to work then the jack stopped working. They were terrible on the phone then tried to charge me an extra $100. In the end they made everything right so I can't complain. Took some phone time to get things fixed.

    Jail terms are much more severe for home invasions to deter such activities, last I heard like 2x longer for home vs business. Maybe that's regional.

    Isn't just sour grapes when people say that Japanese people lack creativity?

    They really do borrow heavily what they can in business in my experience. The 1st Japanese Pharmacopoeia I worked with I felt was just a blatant rip off of the USP. All of them are, truthfully (EP, BP, CP), but the JP took photocopying to a new level. Nothing wrong with being good engineers...

    You really captured my essence there... I had a friend with a .357 and recoil reducer that was awesome but expensive. Please forgive my ignorance of guns, if I say something stupid I'm just ignorant. Made big band and big hole but little recoil. I thought the 9mm was the strongest I could...

    Why don't you carry a gun?

    I'd go 9mm for plincking, but that's just personal preference. I've borrowed shotguns for the occasional hunting trip, gone to the range with friends (who all have guns). I like them but, aside from my paranoia about government lists, feel my brain is my best weapon and a gun might stop me from...

    I worked pharma for some pretty regulated chems (the worst you can think of...). Plus advanced degree in chemistry (well, I dropped out of grad school but a fair number of graduate courses says watch out for this guy). EDIT: I get a lot of Walter White jokes.
