  1. my banner 0wns
  2. Fixed. Increased max thread title shown to 60...
  3. The execrable regimes which bestride this hoary rock shall be expropriated and reigned over by the efflugent Fafalone who will one day step forth with a cogent ukase heralding the inception of a oneiric epoch which shall forever fill the lacunas of existence ...this is the kismet of humanity. ..btw psygnosis is the software company that made the original Lemmings game.
  4. Activity: 0 Hours You have 1 hour ...and ignoring divide by zero tricks, 1 is greater than zero.
  5. Yeah the problem with getting an LS1 was that the insurance was ridiculous (twice the cost of my mustang gt), and that put it in the "would like to have but cannot afford" category. But I will be adding a blower to my car eventually, as well as some other less expensive power boosters.
  6. All prospective moderators are expected to have read the FAQ, specifically the FAQ item about becoming a moderator
  7. It would be extraordinarily difficult to create a virus targetted to a specific DNA sequence of a target individual or group, even for the government. By my estimates the government won't have such ability for at least another decade.
  8. Since viruses evolved from bacteria, it makes perfect sense that such a simplified system would be effective. If the evidence suggested that viruses had evolved independently, it would be a whole other issue.
  9. She hates me, but loves blike, he's the one to blame for her presence.
  10. and a lot of cops just get off on pulling over sexy sports cars like mine.
  11. The point of challenging it is because I had never been stopped previously for anything, and since I was only going 19 over on an empty 4-lane highway, and the cop didn't even use radar, I should have received a warning, not a ticket.
  12. Agnostics believe there is not enough evidence to reach a conclusion on the existence of God, and that if God existed, it could not be defined within our comprehension.
  13. It's X-linked, just like red/green color blindness.
  14. pattern baldness is the only other one that comes to mind.
  15. There are 3 in cones. Red, green, and blue opsins, which are all types of rhodopsins. There is only 1 kind in rods. The numbers of kinds of pigments does not vary from cell to cell, however the concentration of cones is localized to the fovea.
  16. "10 new posts and 5 new threads" means that there are 10 new posts IN 5 threads, not neccessairly entire new threads. You can also visit the forums page, and the dark blue circle will lead you to new posts.
  17. No, it most certainly is not.
  18. Three years of amazing escapades in speeding like a maniac and getting away with it came to an end this weekend, when a Broward county officer pulled me over for doing 89 along an empty portion of a 4-lane interstate highway, just based on how fast he "thought" I was going (my radar detector would have picked his radar gun up, and he told me flat out he didn't use one). I received a $123 ticket for going 19mph over the speed limit, and I will be fighting it in court since I should have received a warning at most.

    Euthenasia?

    The point was that the government is legislating morality.
  20. Yeah virtually all of the people who use recorders here sit in the front two rows, except in orgo where the professor wears a mic so the sound never drops off. But sit close to the front or close to a speaker if you have that setup.
  21. So here's how I'm spending my birthday: Woke up at 10, got ready for class, class at 11, class at 12, lunch, another class, done at 3... finished up a calculus exam until 5:30 (evil!!!! i'll post the questions after the due time to avoid violating the honor code...) for my 6:30 calc2 class, which I get out of at 7:40. Time to celebrate my birthday?? Hell no! Physics homework is due tomorrow, and it takes 3 hours to do. That means I won't be free until at least 11 tonight, and with class at 10:50 tomorrow and then a road trip, I won't be going out at 11. Ahh the sacrifices of the pre-med student....
  22. bottom line is orgo lab sux
  23. Illegal in the US for one place. We've prosecuted people who release things like that.
  24. Thanks
  25. He's referring to the speed of the center of the stick being close to the speed of light, which under incorrect thought would require the edges of the stick to be moving faster than c. This is of course neglecting that motion in a rigid body does not propagate instantaneously.
