How did so many people find out about the yard sale? I would presume from some sort of advertising. Using the same method he could reach out to those ...

Nothing, being nothing can have no opposite.

I hope that you did not give the seller too much info, maybe they would like it back even if it is not theirs. If they offer you a reward, accept it. ...

Pass the weed and I'll tell you if I feel the same way.

Labor is divided because there are menial tasks, if all jobs were equal then there would be no need to divide the labor force.

That just ain't gonna work, try holy water or fire.
August 27, 2018 at 01:24
Just a couple of thoughts. If someone asked you if the ring they had found in a box of junk you just sold to them is yours, what would you say? If you...

Because it uses the boogeymen man to scare the bejeezus out of people so that the toe the line.

220 bloody feet long!! I think I need one about 200 feet shorter. And the price is about 5 zeros too long as well. That might not be a good idea. But ...

August 24, 2018 at 01:58
It might be a good idea, but as Baden says it might result in us getting an increasing flow of drive-by slackers here. What might work is a section wh...

College students cheating, well I never. :gasp: Who'd have thought it possible? :worry:

Concepts require explications, this is done using words. Words need definitions.
August 22, 2018 at 00:33
Nothing is the absence of everything. That is the closest you will get to defining it.
August 22, 2018 at 00:24
So that proves it, you don't know everything. I have no resentment of humor, I actually love it.

August 13, 2018 at 00:52
So who or what is presupposing? Does being need intentionality? Don't quote what someone else said, explain what you think.
August 13, 2018 at 00:45
Yes. How could you presuppose if you were not.
August 12, 2018 at 13:31

They should start then by using proper grammar, punctuation, and capitalization. There are some nasty people around here that like to insult you if yo...

But for the sake of the argument to be valid one would have to know his contributions so as to remove them from the equation. As you say there is no p...

Before anyone can answer this, you have to prove that he does exist so that we can then take him out of the picture and see what is left. Where is you...
