It's not really moot, unless you can prove the plesiosaur was cold blooded.

I'd love for you to try that with me, Mr 'I can smell when they lie'.

Sorry, your one crazy mofo. I command thee to go flushing toilets and emptying sinks until thy hast learnt thyne lesson.

Yes it can. It will also dissolve the cartilage inside the nose after prolonged periods of use, making for an interesting new facial feature.

I think I can safely say that everyone is aware of the @home programs. I have to concur with Gilded, I don't need more of these trying to pull at public resources. Especially as the other @home programs are a hell of a lot more philanthropic than this one. Maybe I'm being a little harsh, but there you go.

I do have in issue with some of the photos and the dual shadows produced, but it's not really that serious. However, I do not have an issue with the objects that are lit indirectly in the photographs. The objects that stand in the shadows are lit not because of a second light source (as in an artificial lamp), but reflection from the light on the surface of the Moon. As the surface of the Moon is white, and the suits are white, the light reflects off the white objects and is picked up by the camera which higher definition than the other objects in the shadow. The use of reflective light to illuminate objects in shadow is a common process in photography, and is taken for granted to be the case for the Apollo photos. I draw the line between pointing out some photos look odd, and inventing reasons to show others are.

It's ok thanks, we have a few threads and members trying to recruit already.

I think that was the Mars Rover, you could book time to move the thing around and view the pictures over the internet. I can't remember when that was, years ago tho.

I took that as a retraction in light of the intervening posts, tbh.

Well, it's one of the reasons they use hounds. It's pretty hard to work out if a fox is infected, but it's pretty easy to work out if a dog is. After a hunt all the dogs are kept in a pen for two weeks, in case of infection, and watched. If one of the dogs is infected, then the huntsmaster knows that the fox population is infected. It's simple, and makes some sense. The practice has become outdated by modern methods though.

Yes. And they had shorter hair an new hats an a bag from walmart full 'o stuff and a cat that had a spot on its cheak and a whole bag full of peanuts.

Ah. Fair enough then. As there has not been an outbreak since the 1900's, and it's all but eliminated in Europe, rabies risk isn't a great reason to hunt the fox. Still, it's all going a bit off track.

Ooooh, catfight. No hair pulling O_o

Well yes, quite. Foxes are the primary, canines are the secondary. Then death follows.

Um, Foxes are the primary carrier for rabies. It's one of the reasons the population is controlled all across Europe and the US. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/travel/diseases/rabies.htm http://www.rabavert.com/casesfx.html The govenment is aware of the connection between foxes and rabies, it takes steps to prevent the migration of infected foxes:- http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld199697/ldhansrd/pdvn/lds04/text/40506w03.htm (under the Channel Tunnel section). But they are only reducing the chances, not eliminating them.

In vetoing the UN's decisions, and illegally occupying a country by force, the US has make itself the largest threat to humanity in the world today. It is also the only country to have deployed nuclear weapons, and suggestions are the US will be the instigator should they be used again. All this talk about 'who next' is foolish. The world has no need of an army going around cleansing countries who's ideals do not match it's own. Afghanistan, Vietnam and Iraq are evidence of how utterly useless the US is at occupation and re-education.

What is it you get for promoting this kipple?

Fine for me.

Fine for me.

And then a build a special mop for clearing up the mess O_o

I've been to a hunt' date=' but only my sister actually hunts. I don't really like the people that do it, so I tend to ignore the whole thing. From what I understand, there is a fox hunt this weekend in Hereford. The fox is somewhere within a 7 mile radius of a farm 19 miles from Hereford, heading towards Worcester. I'll get you a gun, and give you half a day to find the fox. While I'm sure shooting the fox isn't a humane approach, I think there probably are methods available that are more humane than the hunt itself (lets forget about what we do with pigs/chickens and cows in abattoirs). The problem as I see it is, if the hunt disappears the farmer has no reason left for allowing foxes to exist on his land. If the farmers are given a free hand with the fox population, they will cull it. I see a ban on fox hunting resulting in the extermination of foxes in the UK. Yes, I agree, it pretty much is. A lot of upper class fools wearing outmoded dress, simpering about how wonderful they are and that Tarquin looks spiffy in his new hunting jacket.
