I watched the video and, as I understand it, it confirms the statement from Wikipedia I quoted before: The current scientific consensus is that faster...

I remember the original discussion of this technology. It's true the original poster got a lot of skepticism, including from me, but I don't remember ...

Yes. This is the Deer Island plant in Boston. It cost about $4 billion. Thank you very much American taxpayers. Engineers like the type of digesters u...

I don't disagree with this. I have said before that the true sign of intelligence is the ability to hold two apparently contradictory ideas in your mi...

Hoity toity, fancy schmancy, namby pamby people like you and @"Bitter Crank" can use sliced avocado if you'd rather.

Pay them more.

Rogers Brothers Oval Thread has a very nice heft. See the fork and spoon on the left below. The spoon on the right is the solid silver one that my par...

I will accept that it is your favorite burger, and it certainly looks like a very nice one, but, as any true connoyseer knows, the best burger can onl...

I have an odd attraction to silverware (Rogers Brothers oval thread), china (W.S. George petalware), women's names (Tan Vo, Lolita Davidovitz), women ...

Given that Tao is the name for the unnamable, the ambiguity of does exist vs. doesn't exist isn't that confusing. Is it important that the Tao is unna...

In my post, I included quotes that seem to contradict my position to acknowledge the ambiguity. Ambiguity is not the same as uncertainty.

I prefer to think of it as a table cloth. Plates are always Petalware by W.S. George or Fiestaware.

Yes, I am aware of your type: Two all beef patties Special sauce Lettuce, cheese Pickles, onions On a sesame seed bun

It was very good beef and a good roll. I often eat raw onion on my burgers. Usually with Amurican cheese. It was avocado, not guacamole. And I haven't...

Ketchup and avocado? Mustard and avocado? Mayo and avocado? Gag. Mustard is for hot dogs. Ketchup is for french fries. Mayo is for peanut butter and m...

Hamburger + avocado = my lunch /uploads/resized/files/h9/b0ff2fkdt0qixu81.jpg

And by my lights, you've missed the point. Nuff said. You can have the last word.

You and I have a different understanding. Quantum mechanics is science. The Tao is metaphysics. Any similarity is metaphorical. Science is one of the ...

As I see it, the fact that the Tao does not exist is one of the most important insights of the Tao Te Ching. Verse 1 Therefore, by the Everlasting (ch...

Please don't.

It's my personal gift to you. A sign of affection and respect.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say "hyperabstract," "mystical," or "kaonic." If you mean it isn't realistic, then I disagree. I've always said th...

As it says in Verse 4, it predates God.

Thanks. It's hard to grasp.

Hey!! As usual, I resemble that remark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9UdsSuNEmE

I guess I should change my forum name to @"Clarky".

Please start a new thread.

All you have to do is start a separate thread.

Please just start a separate thread.

Yes, you're a hero. Please just start a separate thread.

You see!! You see!! This is the kind of thing that belongs here. Enquiring minds want to know.

I've struggled with the whole idea. I keep holding on to the the no-superluminal-communication floatation device hoping someone will rescue me.

Please just start a separate thread.

It is my understanding that is not the same as information being transmitted at a rate greater than the speed of light. I admit I don't understand why...

It's been going on for three days. It belongs in its own thread.

Please, just start a separate thread. I want to read about the stir fried Ethiopian dung beetles @"Noble Dust" had for dinner. I want to read ND and @...

This is the question I've been wanting to ask - Did the action at a distance take place at a rate faster than the speed of light? If not what's the bi...

This has been going on at length for 3 days. It belongs in a separate thread. You've got a captive audience here of people who want to just get on wit...

I think that's exactly what you're trying to do. Almost everything you've written in this chain has clearly come from resentment. It's not fair!! Stom...

I've looked, but I don't see that you've transferred the post from the "Easy Plan for Gun Control" thread. Maybe I missed it. You indicated you'd move...

I hear Amber Heard is available.

@"Baden" Are you going to transfer the post from "Easy Plan for Gun Control" here.

Verse 25 Stephen Mitchell There was something formless and perfect before the universe was born. It is serene. Empty. Solitary. Unchanging. Infinite. ...

I think you left out the part where you come back from the park before you take your clothes off. Or maybe not.

No. All sorts of things could happen. He could suddenly have a stroke which causes changes in his mental state leading to him robbing the bank. Or he ...

Everyone here was already a mockery of ourselves. Most of us were born that way.

Remember what happened last time you said that. But ok - my wife made spinach and green chile enchiladas last night. They'd be good for dinner tonight...

This is a good way of putting it.

It's a bad idea to put words into the capo di tutti i capi's mouth, but I think the Administrator Formerly Known as Jamalrob is saying that, although ...
