  1. Well, you can add custom dictionaries to any functions using pspell(), but as Glider was saying sometimes it's nicer all around just to leave the bar higher.
  2. They are now officially called Marzoids, courtesy of Ziiiiiim.
  3. What? That's not asking the same thing at all. A rabbit digs in ground' date=' cleans its ears and lives on the land because that's [u']what rabbits do[/u]. The examples I gave you were examples of extraordinarily unnatural behaviour which has to be learned and cognitively processed.
  4. You know, there is such a thing as grace in victory.
  5. Please don't post threads like this in the Peanut Gallery again.

    Shadows

    A shadow is a volume.
  7. I am not sure which part of history you could be referring to. You brought up NK, not him, and it was you who decided that all rogue nations are so labelled because they share attributes other than 'not playing ball'. Looks like a contrived argument to me.
  8. It's a 50,000yr limit on the reliability of C-14 testing.
  9. The strategy is not confined to firing on targets in space, but also ground control centers, communication systems, and launch facilities.
  10. Still, an interesting question I've not seen being asked before.
  11. That's just a PHP function, so we can't really "implement it" just like that. It would have to take a previewed or submitted post, check the spelling for what it thought were errors, then send you back to the post create/edit form with a message. That could get annoying, especially on a site like this where we use lots of jargon. Although a "don't spell check this post" check box would be an obvious option.
  12. Spot the out-clause. When was the last time you saw a pigeon performing delicate underwater tasks for the Navy, or entertaining the crowds at seaworld with their sophisticated inter-species interactions? In all likelihood any given rabbit book is going to have been written by someone who is a little bit nuts for rabbits, with the emphasis on the nuts.
  13. Sorry, it was the Pioneer probes, not Voyager: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1332368.stm I'm not sure if Voyager has reached the bow shock of the solar system yet: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3245677.stm
  14. That's fairly vague, but at least now I know what you meant.
  15. That's not the primary concern. The difference between this and historically similar situations is that once you get control of space with these kind of weapons, that's it. Nobody else has a chance to match you unless you allow it, which is of course wide open to arbitrary selectivity and preferential treatment. If the USA ever has these weapons up there, I think they (meaning the .mil and .gov, not necessarily the civilian population) have demonstrated that they would be quite happy to use them to keep other nations and races down, and they won't give a shit what anyone else thinks because hey - nobody can do anything about it. I think it's fairly obvious that atinymonkey was referring to the child-in-a-playground-like lack of accountability that the USA .gov displays in international politics, rather than likening them to the dastardly pinkos.
  16. It's a media mystery, not a medical mystery
  17. That's not the point damn it! Yeah ok
  18. In the sense that they are one of the most lethal spiders on the North American continent The scorpions? Teach them to use miniature circus props I suppose. What was this thread about again?
  19. I ordered 3 today I found a site that sells brown recluse spiders. Pretty ****ing irresponsible.

    Jesus!

    Seeing as you are still with us Jason, maybe you'd care to respond to some of the replies on your other threads.
  21. Not scorpion, no. This site sells Imperial Scorpions - one of the largest (and imho most sleek): http://www.southcoastexotics.com/inverts.htm
