I fully agree. Nothing should be accepted at face value. That is the nature of enquiry. However, I've yet to see compelling evidence that overturns the currently accepted model of evolution and the pivotal role natural selection plays in the process.
I hate what we do, both to ourselves and to other species. The fact that we know what we are doing, yet refuse to change, makes me think that voluntary extinction of H. sapiens is the best way forward.
OK, Painted Wolf gave a figure of 2000 calories per day in terms of energy intake. To this, I'll add 50 litres of water per day, which covers drinking, washing and sanitation.
"Drinking, sanitation, and hygiene needs constitute the basic human survival needs for water. These minimum needs total...
This is you, waitasec? Fantastic! It's great when the drums kick in at 4.27.
Edit: just realised you said that it was recorded in your studio, not necessarily performed by you. Still great, though!
Great hobby to have. I'm interested in the psychology behind magic tricks and illusions. I've got a few bits and pieces that I use in front of my pupils to demonstrate how the mind can be deceived into accepting things that aren't really there.
I'm planning to get into crafting amulets and...
I fully understand your question - no need to simplify it, thanks.
You are asking what is essentially an ecological question and, as a qualified, trained ecologist, I am trying to put your question into context.
A basic concept of ecology is the niche and there are two niches that can be...
Seriously? I read the preface and part of chapter one last night, and was impressed with the views Dawkins put forward. The pursuit of science in no way detracts from the beauty we observe in the world. What did you find so offensive or unbelievable that made you stop reading?
No, you didn't :p
Are you taking into account the rest of the biota we share the planet with? The Earth could probably support many more people, but at the expense of natural habitats. Obviously by clearing a forest for agriculture, the number of humans supported in an area can be increased.
If we assume that the...
OK, yes I can see that this is where reading any signs can be tricky. The last thing you want is to risk damaging the long friendship you have with her if you misinterpret the signs.
It may not be the same as asking for advice from someone face-to-face, but I reckon you've displayed a lot of...
Lawrence, what 'vibes' do you get from this girl? Do you think she feels the same way? Half the battle is knowing that you have at least a chance of success. If the signs are good, then just ask her. Easier said than done, I know, but we have all been there at some point.
Good luck!
