I don't think the original poster meant this subject to be humorous so I find it surprising when other posters find it that way. As for the barfing, back at ya Hugh!

Hi CharlotteAnn: I'm reading the first book I've ever read by Jodi Picoult "The Pact" and find it a bit of a heartbreaker so far - plus I can't imagine 9 year olds getting up to the same antics as the characters in the book. It's kind of scary to think that parents maybe never know their kids...

Hi Beer Good: Are you saying that Pastafarianism is one of the fastest growing religions? I read the paper and watch the news on tv each day and on this forum is the first time I've ever heard of it - so are you serious or are you messing with our minds? :D

My apologies Stewart, I was thinking that your were being flippant. Looked up Pastafarians and there they were - things are getting weirder and weirder. :blink:

Maybe you could get one of the unemployed News of the World journalists to find out for you. What is your favourite vacation spot?

Re doctor - I would say definitely yes. Might also be a good idea to get a tetanus shot if your shot isn't up to date. Do you think our summers are getting hotter?

Maybe we do have death rays but it is being kept a big secret by the government as a secret weapon. Would you like to think that there was such a thing outside sci-fi? :whistling:

It's just the way of the world. We grow up, we can be loving or not. I'm not sure what you mean by innocent - unwordly? - naive? Do you have children?

Congrats to you Brk3 - you deserve credit for getting through it - I tried reading it and foundered part way through. So we've both completed our Genre assignment. Sorry it wasn't too enjoyable for you. Maybe next time we have a genre swap you'll get something that really turns your crank. M

I love shrimp but I think it may be the garlic butter that comes with it. Why does American football have four downs and Canadian football only three and why is it called football when they only kick the ball to get a field goal or to punt - the rest of the time they are carrying it or...

If you are asking about religious matters I think you might find that many people regard it as a deeply personal subject and they don't care to discuss it. As to learning new things - I don't think I'm afraid of that. Why would you think that people are afraid in this regard?

I'm in an SUV driving away from the home of my 'cult' sisters and trying to entice the mad killer into the open - he's trying to kill me and my sisters and knows where I am telepathically.:angry:

Thanks Sparkchaser - always good to know that some things never change! :D

Just a question from a non-math and science background - does energy remain constant or does it expand and what happens to the radiation we get bombarded with from outer space - does it just get absorbed into the earth - I have lots more questions along this line but maybe should get a book on it.

I like the idea that energy is always present and can't be destroyed. It would be comforting to know that the energy of all the people you have known and are no longer living is still around in some form. Have no strong opinion one way or the other - just one of those things it's impossible to...
