    Nikola Tesla

    Tesla was certainly a brilliant engineer, but he was a crackpot when it came to physics and he often made outrageous claims with no evidence to back it up. He was a big self promoter and while there’s nothing inherently wrong with that, there’s something of a Tesla cult that exists today who...

    abiogenesis

    Of course. It's derived from the Latin "volva" meaning "deadly snail" or "Swedish car" and the Greek "Iluva" meaning "lady parts". The Iluvatar is located between a woman's Eä and her Ainu. That wasn't so hard- don't you people have a gynecological dictionary around? :confused:

    He is very excited. His school made dreidels so he has been singing the dreidel song non-stop. :D

    We're all good- how're you kids? :D Did you manage to sneak away from classes for a bit? Monta is drunk again... What else can I say? :shrug: :p

    abiogenesis

    Oddly enough my joke was about scissoring but, again, I held back. And please refrain from using offensive gynecological terms like "Iluvatar" in the future. Kids read this forum you know.

    Zionist Sharks Attack Innocent Tourists?

    :eek: ...and jaws and Jews have four letters just like the tetragrammaton. This shark conspiracy goes waaaay back.

    Zionist Sharks Attack Innocent Tourists?

    Hmmmm. Steven Spielberg is Jewish and he directed Munich, a film about a former Mossad agent hunting down several Black September members. And he also made Jaws... The conspiracy theory practically writes itself!

    abiogenesis

    I was going to make a tasteless joke about "gray goo" but I decided to hold back. I hope everyone is as proud of me as I am over my restraint.

    abiogenesis

    I'd like the zombie scenario... :) I don't like the microbes-eating-plastics scenario though. :( :D Many of Venter’s competitors see his method(s) as impractical and there’s no denying that Venter is a business man- with the requisite hype- as much as he is a scientist. So it’s all still up...

    abiogenesis

    Venter hinted at using the synthetic cells to clean up oil spills when he first revealed his discovery, but lately he seems to be interested in applying the technology to algae-based fuel. Apparently Exxon has expressed interest and pledged a potential 600 million in cooperation with Venter's...

    New bus ad campaign draws a link between skepticism and atheism

    You're right. I now have to assume that's how they meant it as well; the ad does begin with Allah and ends with Christ. I used to do volunteer work with the Hollywood CFI (it got me into some free shows at the Steve Allen theater so it was worth it. :D) and many of the CFIers were mythicists...

    Happy New Hijri Year 1432

    Oh my! Don't you guys hate it when you accidently keep writing "1431" on all your checks? I am so forgetful!

    New bus ad campaign draws a link between skepticism and atheism

    I think a link between atheism and skepticism is valid and it makes sense to me that CFI would enforce the connection. And while I do think skepticism towards miracles or religious claims (like religion as the sole source of morality) in general is warranted, I'm not so sure about skepticism...

    171 days left until Jesus' second coming

    I do believe you're the first. Apparently he wrote a book predicting the end in 1994? Hm, wonder how that turned out. :shrug:

    NASA Finds New Form Of Life

    Angellous_evangellous is RF's Wikileaks. :eek: I'd like to see a sci-fi story where some bacterial alien life form invades Earth- something like The Andromeda Strain. The planet panics as the bacteria eats everything in its path but is finally destroyed by the ultimate weapon: That'd be neat.

    OMG OMG OMG Dirk Gently!!!!

    Peter Jackson's weight loss parallels his decline in films. Coincidence? That stupid song makes me laugh no matter how many times I've heard it. :D

    I have copies of it.
