LOL LOL LOL ROFL

I have not checked the linky yet, but as MrL JaKiri said, these planetisimals that they found (Numbering about 122 or so) are the size of Jupiter. By our current understanding, Life can not form on a Gas Giant.

Once again, what are you basing your information on? As you just said, I can pick ANY star in the cosmos, and you can tell me how many planets it has and what size, or if any at all, right?? Or at the very least provide the photographical pictures of these planets. If yes, then let me know, I'll pick a few stars for you.....

Last time I checked, the good ol' Microsoft had a recommendation to reformat an HDD about once a year or so.

Well, I did go with Science(will switch to Nature next year) primarily because their website run faster(imo). So this will give me what I need(mainly Genetics) and for the field specific journal I'll have to rely on my Uni. as this one is a tad more expensive.

Lol, the idea was to get your guys view on this before I add my bit in But I say T-rex was a Scavenger. There is significant fossil evidence to account that T-rex could not run(at least not very faster then perhaps a jog). Which would also mean that T-Rex can no longer retain the name of a Lizard King.

The problem would be with this bit: they would look similar It's a bit of a gross overestimation to compare all possible life forms in the cosmos to that on earth, doncha think?

Then I'm sure you've taken into the account things like, Gravity, Atmospheric conditions, distance from the star, pressure, temp, so on and so forth...?

Uhm, to the 2 previous post(ers), where or what are you basing your information on?

Very possible(but that may depend on how you define 'Intelligence'). Very unlikely.

First of all, we need to make a distinction here. Homophobic will probably apply to more to heterosexual males than to heterosexual females. The Homophobic phenomenon is mostly it is due to peer-pressure. Case in point - The current executive branch of the US Gov't voiced it's opposition to gay marriage. What's worse, they(Bush) wants to carve an amendment in the Constitution of the United States saying so. Then there are various religious movements, then there's the bible, etc. Also heterosexual males are more likely to do gay bashing than heterosexual women. Most or at least a Lot of people view female(gays) as something that can be 'cured' (Including the 3rd Reich) where as (male)Gays are condemned for eternity. People including physicians(back in the 70's-80's were and many still are calling AIDS as Gods Punishment of gays(they were talking mostly men here). Another note, it is not something that one(homosexual) will Not just boast about(being gay) in a circle of heterosexual friends(hence the need for many to remain in the closet). Most males also see femail(gays) as attractive and lucrative. One of my own girlfriends was bisexual, but let's not go into all that. Myself, I have a few gay friends(male and female) at the present time so they get to bring this conversation to light quite frequently(for the better or worse). So, with so much stacked against you, how can you fight it? Key words here are Understanding and Respect, but that would mean that the person(s) must be open to novel ideas and be able to overcome their personal prejudice. {edit} Oh yeah, forgot to add this to the pot. Since the dawn of mankind, it almost always was dominated by Males and these times are by far no exception(but it is getting a bit better). Simply look around, but until late 80's / early 90's, men had almost no competition with females in the industry(pick one of your choice). Now, you see lots of females in the executive position of the corporate sector or other positions of power. Men are not men enough to share their authority fully or equally to women. The most popular idea is that if you're a Man, then you Must be Heterosexual; You must be masculine; You must be dominant and You Must be White, a Bully. You could say that one requires to look and act like Silvester Stalone or Arnold Schwarzenegger. Because these guys do not cry when hurt(or at least they don't in the movies), they don't whyne, etc. So, how can men accept other men who act femininely? The answer is that they can't.

I though that the huygens probe isn't going to be dropped 'till January or something. ??

How about the camps that the Unites States set up for their Japanese citizens almost immediately after the attack on Pearl Harbor? Granted that there was no killings in the camp' date=' but it [b']Was[/b] a camp meant to keep people who are untrustworthy and under constant security scrutiny, nonetheless.

Japanese have always considered themselves as the master race (of Asians), hence their need to conquer and control all of Asia.

I was hoping this thread would go a bit farther than the one you provided Sayo.

For the sake of phun *err, i meant fun * I say Hell Yeah!

Uhm, I refuse to accept this as the 'World's Tallest Building' since I do not count the antenna.

This might sound a bit arrogant, but pls bear with me Is every member of say the Royal Scientific(European or British, etc) society has been granted with a knighthood? What does one needs to do in order to become a knight these days anyway?

Well, then I guess that every history Professor I ever had was a fool then.

Good point.

Since I was born and raised in NYC, I was devastated when the Twins fell. Perhaps you can even say that(to a degree) I was devastated more by the loss of buildings then the lives lost that day in NYC. Anybody that has been in NYC since 911 can see that a Huge chunk of the city is simply gone forever, and that is a truly depressing sight. While it absolutely sucks that New York City will never build buildings as tall as the WTC(at least that's what the current administration is saying - Damnit, they need to get Guiliani back in the Mayors seat:mad:) This is a welcome and long overdue project. http://edition.cnn.com/2004/US/Northeast/07/03/wtc.cornerstone/index.html

They have apps(many to be used in the X windows) that are that distro specific, for example YaST and YaST2 tool on SuSE. Can't think of other major ones at the moment though.

No, at least not yet. But which stem cells are you talking about/thinking of(some of the more promissing research is centered on the Embryonic, Bonemarrow and Kidney) stem cells?

Eating disorders are almost always psychological. {edit} damnit, i hate the revival of old threads. should have paid att to the date this b'4 posting. grrrrr
