Simply wearing safety equipment (an apron) would be enough to protect you while cooking, lol There is no nudist rule that says you must expose yourself to harm because you are a nudist. Do you have any proof of this? A great many people are family nudists. A great many people already do... Again do you have any proof that nudity has anything to do with being a less than successful society? Addictive? Ethical?

I'm not sure it is accurate to say the government wants to restrict your sexual freedoms but it is the goal of many religions. They often work through government to accomplish this. While abortion is the buzz word that the religious right uses to convince others of their cause it is really birth control and sexual freedom that is their target. Planned parenthood is about much more than abortion on demand but i agree that sexual freedom is really their target and I see no benefit to restricting the sexual freedoms of adults. .

Hydrocarbons Deep Within Earth: New Computational Study Reveals How
Moontanman replied to Moontanman's topic in Science News
I think the political left is mainly responsible for suppressing this information although the right has to take some of the blame as well. Oil is a heated political issue, the left can't embrace this because it calls into question some of their most favored ideas about peak oil and the need for alternate energy sources. The right has problems with it because it was the main theory of the Soviets and of course they can't be right about anything. It's sad when politics gets in the way of seeking the truth. Most scientific journals wouldn't even accept papers that discussed even the possibility of abiogenic oil. Thomas Gold makes a great case for oil being geology reworked by biology instead of the current theory of biology reworked by geology. Thoma Gold's book "The Deep Hot Biosphere" will one day be recognized as an important step in the direction of understanding not only oil but planetary formation and the formation of life it's self. Great link BTW Jackson... -
Join a nudist group, be nude all you want. I did. I'm not sure what you mean by this I could agree to that for the most part...

As a child my hair was white blond and straight, both my parents had dark hair but by the time I was 5 or 6 my hair had begun to darken and was dark brown and very curly by the time I was a teen ager. (now it's white again, lol) Hair color is not an indicator of parenthood. If it's important to you get a DNA test but the next time a dullard suggests he is not your child suggest their parents were never married...

Exactly! Where do you think all those Centaurs came from???

Hydrocarbons Deep Within Earth: New Computational Study Reveals How
Moontanman replied to Moontanman's topic in Science News
The idea of methane, oil and coal being fossils fuels is entrenched deeply in current scientific thought but this may be the first steps to show that so called fossil fuels are really a natural part of the Earth left over from the Earths formation not ancient plants some how magically turned to gas oil and coal. Thomas Gold made a good argument that natural gas, oil and coal are geology reworked by biology not biology reworked by geology and this would seem to support his ideas. -
The Moon Goddess Diana bestows her bounty on the world and the world gives all the credit to an impostor, blessed be ydoaPs, Diana appreciates your attempt to give the Goddess Eostre the credit She deserves, next time we feast and dance naked in the light of her awesome presence I'll ask Diana to bless you personally for recognizing the great lie that has been perpetuated.

Yeah ydoaPs, I'll help you push him into the pit as for names i think they missed the boat when they failed to name anti-matter protons ... negatons

I think at this point it is important to note that homosexuality and heterosexuality is not an either or thing. Most humans have a range of sexual desires from totally heterosexual to totally homosexual. Almost no one is really just one or the other. Our society seems to drive many people toward one extreme or the other but to try and say there is no middle ground is not accurate. Most homosexuals can and do at some point in their lives respond sexually to both sexes as do heterosexuals. Our society teaches us to suppress any feelings other than heterosexuality and most people do so, for some reason in our modern society women are often thought of as "hot" if they go both ways but men are not, the ease that many women seem to have going back and forth is IMHO cultural and both sexes are probably capable of more bi-sexual behavior than we currently see. I would like to amend this post but keep the original wording so my mistake can be seen plainly, it is not bi-sexual behavior it is simply "sexual behavior" ...

The most reasonable explanation is that mokele mbembe is a rhinoceros. Tribesmen from deep in the jungle like to bullshit naive white explorers as much as any one else, lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mokele-mbembe

Primordial Weirdness: Did the Early Universe Have One Dimension? Scientists Outline Test for Theory Scientists have outlined a test for "vanishing dimensions" hypothesis, which, if proven, would address major problems in particle physics. (Credit: iStockphoto/Mihail Ulianikov) ScienceDaily (Apr. 20, 2011) — Did the early universe have just one spatial dimension? That's the mind-boggling concept at the heart of a theory that University at Buffalo physicist Dejan Stojkovic and colleagues proposed in 2010. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/04/110420152059.htm

Mitt Romney Haunted By Past Of Trying To Help Uninsured Sick People BELMONT, MA—Though Mitt Romney is considered to be a frontrunner for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, the national spotlight has forced him to repeatedly confront a major skeleton in his political closet: that as governor of Massachusetts he once tried to help poor, uninsured sick people. Romney, who signed the state's 2006 health care reform act, has said he "deeply regrets" giving people in poor physical and mental health the opportunity to seek medical attention, admitting that helping very sick people get better remains a dark cloud hovering over his political career, and his biggest obstacle to becoming president of the United States of America. http://www.theonion.com/articles/mitt-romney-haunted-by-past-of-trying-to-help-unin,20097/

Great explanation Janus, i was thinking along similar lines when i read yours and realized you had it. I was thinking that if the mass increased the earths orbit then as it acquired mass through meteors and dust the earth over time should be receding from the sun, i haven't read anything that would support that for sure.

Question about Planetary Formation
Moontanman replied to Widdekind's topic in Astronomy and Cosmology
Do you have any info on that idea? It's new to me. -
Aren't there examples of children who describe their past lives in detail? Bubble bubble toil and trouble, lol

Cro-magnons were modern humans, where did you get the idea they were not us? Blue eyes developed about 8,000 years ago in the area near the black sea not Scandinavia. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-511473/All-blue-eyed-people-traced-ancestor-lived-10-000-years-ago-near-Black-Sea.html From your own link I don't see a connection between blondes and cro-magnon man at all... and not all men like big boobs but all human women have big boobs compared to other apes like chimps or gorillas.

lighter than air ship using vacuum instead of gas
Moontanman replied to lemur's topic in Engineering
One of my favorite series of books raises this question in an unusual way, in one of the Books of swords by Saberhagen the protagonist conjures up a technology jinn. He wants to build a craft lighter than air and he instructs the magical creature to build a huge hollow sphere of metal and then commands it to remove the air, of course the balloon collapses as the air is removed. (wild books by the way, technology mixed with swords and sorcery gods demons and all sorts of odd stuff created by the ultimate dooms day weapon in a war between the USA and the Soviets) but the point is that if the hollow sphere is thin and light enough to weigh less than the air inside the sphere would collapse. Another book "Across Real time" by Verner Vinge uses the same concept somewhat more successfully but yes if the sphere is lighter than the air inside it will float if the air is removed and the walls are strong enough to prevent collapse. -
Yes, it's called Cherenkov radiation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherenkov_radiation it's what makes nuclear reactors glow when charged particles travel faster than light...

I think the USA is no doubt a plutocracy, and to think that Republicans only like rich people or that Democrats only like the poor is silly. Both extremes consist of rich people who are in control of every thing, very few if any poor or even middle class ever really gain any power in the government, our entire country is all about the worship of wealth and the people who create it. Never mind that all the wealth of this country was made on the backs of the poor and middle class, the truly wealthy are the ones who run things and make sure in the end all wealth is held by a few at the expense of the many. Whether or not this is moral or immoral is left to us to say after the rich of the party we like tells us it is or not, it's all smoke and mirrors in my estimation, one side might use a little more lube than the other but in the long run they still stick it in just as deep and frequently they just have different strategies to accomplish penetration...

Big brains and spineless penises How DNA deletions may have produced uniquely human traits The spiny genitalia of the Callosobruchus analis beetle Hundreds of deletions in non-coding DNA have helped sculpt human evolution, including an increase in brain size and the loss of sensory whiskers and penis spines, proposes a study published this week in Nature.
