  Re: If women were in charge...
 
(...) What would happen? Wouldn't it be bad? *His Girlfriend punches his arm* Rick: OW. Dont hit me Lisa. I am just saying women dont have the balls to do big important stuff Lisa: It's estrogen you spoony person, thats all it is. its estrogen. (...)

  Re: School leaving age
 
(...) Yes. For both answers. You dont learn how to save the enviroment (Ecology), how to make claypots (Ceramics I and II) and how to dray a nose (Cartooning) until you are 16! That shows how stupid American Electives are. Rick (URL) (23 years ago, 19-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) The world would be a very horrible place! -Harvey (23 years ago, 19-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
(...) I'm probably in the ultra-minor minority of Americans who would like to pay for the real price of oil- mainly to reflect the true environmental costs. I don't mind paying the currently high prices but, I think I'v unintentially deluded myself (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) James, How do you consider we achieve responsible management? I have some ideas. I'm curious to what others think. -chris (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
(...) I can't find the exact cite right now, but an extension of Maslow's 'Hierarchy of needs' implies that environmental awareness(1) and the desire to protect it typically does not arrise in a society until that society reaches some level of (...)

  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
(...) I know you are trying to stay on a narrowly focused topic here, but this is something I started to think about (again) as I was reading the end of the article and it may have bearing on this discussion. Can the market foster an ethical (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) One of what? James FUT lugnet.off-topic.disingenuous (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) My personal take on the situation is that it doesn't necesarily matter whose original idea it was, but how they use it. I mean Henry Ford wasn't the first person to create a car, but he was the first person to make it practical, worthwhile, (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: If women were in charge...
 
(...) How very like a man to make a bad pun and forget to put the seat back down (er, that is, set the FUT correctly) ++Lar (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.pun)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) We have one of these here, you know... (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  School leaving age
 
Hi all Does the government insist pupils stay at school until their 16 (here in the UK) because that's how long it takes to teach them a sufficent amount or is it just convenient to keep them occupied until their 16? Steve (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: If women were in charge...
 
(...) So you've got one of those on-and-off relationships... Dave! (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) No harm done--I was trying to be facetious anyway. You're obviously not familiar with the universal archetype of the guy-who-didn't-quite...o-express. 8^) Dave! (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) No, I did, its just that there is more than one archetype, so I think both using all of the same archetypes is rather suspicious. :) That is one of the things I was trying to get at, sorry for not being very clear. Jeff (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: If women were in charge...
 
(...) Uh...you haven't met my wife. We have a drill: she turns everything with a power cord in the house on, I turn everything off. She turns it all back on, I turn it all back off. She turns everything on, I turn everything off, she turns (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) Well, you're obviously not familiar with the universal archetype of the pre-WWI international submarine crew. 8^0 Actually, that is some weird overlap; I didn't realize the scope of it. Dave! (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Disney stealing ideas again?
 
(...) I must've missed part of that thread then, because I thought it was stated that the similarities were just the names (HP being a main character and LP being a minor character) and two entirely different creatures having the same name. Also, (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
(...) While ownership of many things seems problematical, I think free market forces do work in environmental protections. I feel pretty confident that in a general sense, those nations with more market freedom have more concern for the environment. (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
