  1. Funny isn't it? Just like those desperate millions who try chemotherapy, radiatherapy, antibiotics and so forth. Pah, the fools.
  2. Coffee & Tea. Sometimes cola.
  3. While we are on the subject, I hope none of you use Lynx products. They are suspiciously devoid of any "not tested on animals" logo.
  4. Don't forget to ensure that all of humanity has its legs sawn off. And replaced with legs of solid goldddddd.
  5. I seeeeeee. Someone who lived in Australia until recently gave me that info. I shall hit them with a stick.
  6. View > Reading Pane > Right/Bottom/Off With "off" being the sensible option
  7. I have like a zillion pop and IMAP accounts though and Mozilla doesn't handle that quite so well. Security in 2003 has been beefed up to the max, and it actually handles IMAP properly now. What part of the layout?
  8. Oh good lord. Outlook express = bumspawn of satan. I use Outlook 2003 for WinXP (mozilla builds annoy me), and Kmail under Linux.
  9. The first gaping hole I see is that Darwinism is not the same as evolutionary theory. Also I'm not sure you understand what selection does.
  10. But was that due to capital punishment being repealed, or because it was an effective deterrent? (i.e., that doesn't necessarily mean that capital punishment was ended in 1965...?)
  11. Mac OSX is better than XP, but probably not so much that the average Windows user is going to want to shell out for a new computer and learn a whole new operating system, as well as saying goodbye to half the software they are already accustomed to using. Yes. I think it's a combination of the tools available and more intuitive workflows.

    Big Brother 5

    How about high calibre cannon and a bus of comedians?

    Pig Anatomy

    The most obvious difference between the shoulders and the rump is that the shoulders do a lot more work. Been ages since I did muscle structure and mechanics but I'm pretty sure that would lead to a difference in texture and the concentration of various ions in the tissue.
  14. I've a friend who swears it's better for audio work too. Not sure how it would be though tbh.
  15. That's just selection at work. I think BPH is implying some kind of 'situation control', whereby nature throws a new disease at us when we conquer the last one, in order to knock us back a bit.
  16. Windows 2003 is a server, not a workstation if I remember correctly. Mac OS is better than windows for a lot of reasons, but it very much depends on what you want to use your computer for. If you just want a regular home pc, stick with XP. If you want to use your computer as a graphical design workstation then it might be an idea to look at Mac OS as an alternative.
  17. Like I said; if you don't decide how much mass from one trophic level has to pass to the next trophic level in order to qualify as a link in the chain, you aren't going to get very far before the discussion descends into debates over whether or not certain interactions "count".
  18. Albert, you can ask any IE-related questions you have there and be sure of a rapid and accurate response.
  19. It occurs to me he'd get a bigger result than he should with that calculation, because it doesn't account for any density gradient. Any ideas?
  20. Cancer hasn't suddenly "popped up". There is a greater chance of it occurring in an individual now due to longer lifespans and the increased range of carcinogenic factors, but it has always been with us. There's not actually any 100% compelling evidence that AIDS is new either. It was recognised as being caused by a virus in the 1980s but could have been active long before then, with victims' deaths being notched up to their "non-responsiveness" to the treatment of whatever opportunistic disease killed them. The other diseases you mention have not appeared and disappeared in series. The reason many of them "peaked" at different times historically is because their optimum habitats are different. Conditions that favour a massive outbreak of small pox, for instance, might not be favourable for cholera. Microbes that cause extreme damage to us are usually well-adapted to a specific habitat, and can be expected to be competitor-intolerant within that habitat.
  21. How can it not help? It's the Microsoft support channel specifically for IE.
