If you subscribe to the theory of evolution then you may make the assumption that we are roughly as "stupid" as a sentient being can be while still forming a society. This can be inferred being that the planet is filled with life of various levels of self-awareness but only one species (humans)...

well I didn't mean to but you're probably right. Sorry about that to you and the OP. Cheers. EDIT: Yeah, I just looked over my posts and was being a complete ass. I'm really sorry, I don't know what my problem was.

You must not know many people with degrees (academics are backstabbing, elitist, assholes). . . you work your ass off for years to lord stuff over happier people who made better decisions with their lives . . . I thought that was common knowledge. Oh and Dr Gregory Anderson PhD. who was one...

You are absolutely correct about the Newton's third law thing and that's where recoil comes from. The amount of momentum imparted on a target can be no greater than (but opposite to) the momentum imparted on the shooter by the guns recoil (really the recoil of the bullet on the gun but that's...

Sorry to do this but . . . maturin has literally no idea what they're talking about. I don't mean to forum bash them or anything but people should be aware that they are completely wrong and not any kind of authority on the matter. I have a BS in physics and a grain of sand can posses enough...

Wow, I was expecting something . . . less. This is an excellent post. I can tell you as one that is well versed in Newtonian Mechanics that the references to force, energy and momentum are all right on. I did know most of this already but it's nice to see it being disseminated in such a clear...

I don't think it's as simple as you put it OP but I do believe than any individual has the right to protect their person and that the shooting was justifiable self defense. Still . . . that poor, stupid, kid lost his life over a moment of impulse and the poor foresight of youth. It's really...

I wouldn't go into space until the technology was much better. If we were in a star trek or battlestar glactica type civilisation then sure otherwise I don't think I'd be up for it.

I really liked this one. It's nice to see Yahtzee praise and manage to still be highly comedic. I'd like to see more reviews like this.

That's too bad, it's probably my favorite Zelda game. (I've played every one of them including the handhelds) EDIT: Ah, right, as far as the OT goes I'd say that I can't play PC games that exceed my modest specs and I'm not very good at competitive online multiplayer FPS's so I really don't...

Instinct and emotion gives our lives meaning or, at least, the illusion of meaning. Consider having no instinct or emotion. No feeding drive, no sex drive, no love or hate, no desire etc. Would you get up in the morning? Would you have children? Would you even bother to eat? There is no...

this is common with small breeds but training can do a lot to help. If you have a large or medium breed then it is unusual and you should consult a professional.

I think that this is great! We have come a long way since the post WWII uber-puritanical movement in America (though, I realize that this is neither an all-American group nor that discrimination is an all-American problem) and it is far past due that the LGBT community is recognized as a vital...

versu versus!? Oh, no! Terran = Mechs FTW!
