Davinci’s Codex Leicester should get some mention, but I like the discussion. Galileo’s assertion that the laws of nature are written in mathematics was fairly significant.

Whoever came up with the Brady Bunch was a goddamn friggen genius, I think we can all agree on that.

I am under 19 and I hear the under 20’s at very low volume.

@crispin (83): Neanderthals would be a competing humanoid evolution. They just lost out.

Also Porpoise and Dolphins are sentient. In fact engage in many of the same foolishness that we humans do. Their environment does dictate in what way they can evolve though eh? Can’t see them building any cities soon – they’ve lost the whole thumb and fingers thing when they went back to the ocean. A trade-off.

@crispin (82): i appreciate you pointing that out actually. i also appreciate you pointing out that you knew what i meant by referring to the “every day conversation” bit…

to follow up on the statement you made about humans being the ‘most evolved beings’ (i know that is not verbatim)… i would challenge that with the now proven existence of extreme animals living near thermal vents in our oceans, who have developed tools to survive completely outside the realm of what we thought possible!

Comment on Top 10 Drugs and their Effects by nadz

Drugs were a part of my past, and i used them for the wrong reasons. I used them to “forget” all my problems and to numb all my pain. I did this for years. I knew that if i did not do anything about it the addiction was going to take over me. It was probably the hardest thing i had to do. I changed everything, and many times i was discouraged and craved, but i have had the most amazing supports, the bestest of friends i could have ever chosen and the gift of a loving and understanding family. Drugs are a huge problem and a major struggle in our world today. I see how much the impact of drugs also have on our teen today, and it’s sad because those teens are our future, and if the use and abuse of drugs continues, the fatality will be even worse. Working in the field of law has allowed me to help make a difference, and to let people know i have been there. In may ways i can understand, and in others i can’t. I do know that drugs are becoming the bigger problem, even in today’s world, which is also scary because it means that our suicide rate it going to accelerate faster too. My message is: Don’t get messed up in that shit. Drugs are no good. Don’t let drugs get in the way of your happiness. Remember that YOU matter. Everyone has a lot of good in them. We chose our fate. We chose to have that puff or sniff of coke, or that pill of E. We have that choice, and every time we make the wrong one, the consequence gets worse. Be all you can be. Don’t let a drug take you over.You mean the world to someone and i know if i lost anyone to drugs, i would be heartbroken. Remember who you are hurting and effecting when your doing drugs. You can make a difference. I know i did, and continue to do so.
