What?

Huzzah!!!! Now we have to perfect three technologies.

Being 'Plant Life' sucks. Just thought I'd mention it.

If you mean "would this difference in experience happen", then yes it would in theory. The problem is actually getting a ship to lightspeed, and being able to safely carry humans on it.

...but top marks for actually finding some stuff to refer to - most people just put up random links or use the "Zarkovian Dash" technique.

Some thoughts on that: [*]A gay sailor in the 1950s would be less likely to spread or contract sexually transmitted diseases than a straight sailor.[*]The idea that the CIA would develop bioweapons with their 'secret technology' is risible. Anyone suggesting such things clearly doesn't know what the CIA do, and therefore is not a reliable source on their movements.[*]Combining BLV and OLV would not produce a virus with a similar genetic makeup to SIV. So that's bollocks.[/list=1]

\o/ wheeeeeee! I'm even older! \o/ Cheers guys

They look pretty good - I can see why the price looks a bit unbelievable. I'll check it out in more depth when I'm not at work. I suppose it depends what it is that you want to do though - it's a Unix server host.

It's a good question. I don't think I can answer it in a satisfactory way, but I do know that in the vast majority of cases there is no conscious choice involved whatsoever. You might as well say that heterosexuals choose to be so inclined, when obviously the overbearing biological impulse is to procreate. Maybe a better way of putting the question is 'what is the source of the biological impulse towards homosexuality?', although that would possibly have the side effect of limiting the discussion to biological rather than social effects. I'm going to go away and think about this - it beats the training I'm doing at work at the moment. Some people just don't want to learn! Edit: Why is this in pseudoscience anyway?

You're a homophobophobic?

You shouldn't have spoken too soon. Another large body has been found - this one is 3000 billion miles from the sun and can only be detected because its immense gravity deflects cometary matter from the belts. And it's HUGE.

\o/ Hello Number 94

I like the way he got the same paragraphs into two different posts and nobody noticed.

I don't recall the Black race being wiped out.

2002 LM60 was identified orbiting within the Kuiper belt. It's about half the size of Pluto and has been dubbed Quaoar for the moment. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2306945.stm

Perhaps they don't. All energy processes in biology are 'lossy' - perhaps life is not a force acting agaist entropy, but the universe's way of slowing down the entropic dispersal of energy. There will never be enough life in the universe to stop energy from disappearing into the void altogether.

\o/ Here's to another 3 months! And then some more months I'd hope... Like aman said - I haven't seen anywhere that allows intelligent discussion as this site does.

But the evidence on its own isn't enough. You also need to formulate a rational argument that explains how the appearance of said matter and energy suggests the presence of the entity you have designated 'god'.

The UK Government is currently spending 3/4 Billion taxpayers' money replacing a fucking football stadium. It makes me sick. [edit] I see nobody bothered to turn on the lingo filter

That was a short one Is this barrier similar in any way to the brain barrier?

Some biochemistry we don't yet understand, and a period of time too long to comprehend in terms that make sense to us. I'd rather apply Occam's Razor than attribute the beginnings of life to some benign phantom nobody has ever shown tangible evidence of.

God, if I see that damned thing one more time... Print it out and fold the paper so that the two squares are overlapping. It'll freak your brain out a bit, especially if you keep going "together, apart... together, apart..." like I did.

\o/ Cool.

Jeez. Even the spam threads descend into serious discussion here. I despair, I really do.
