  Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?
 
(...) I'm ducking, yeah right. You have repeatedly made the statements in this thread that those who have AIDS should have known better and deserve their fate . Yet you neither acknowledge or deny my asertation of your stand. (...) Really, I'm (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  May Day "riots" in London
 
I would hope that the readers of Lugnet would join me in condeming the actions of the indiviuals who rioted in London on May 1st. Defacing a national monument (The Cenotaph) is not legitamate protest. If a group in Washington were to attack the (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Heck yeah fission is cleaner. We always seem to be worried about what to do with the spent rods - why not drop them into the sun? It's not like it's going to pollute the sun or anything, and the canisters wouldn't need much of a boost at all. I was (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) That data is suspect. 100 years ago we did not have the technology to determine what the temperature was in a repeatable way over enough sample points to determine what the average temperature is at a given location. We've had that technology (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) IIRC, the 'trends' have been measured as 1 degree celsius (1.8 F) over the past [hundred I think] years. (Dang, wish I had some sources; but I never kept my notes...) The years might be way off, but it's definitely not more than 100; if (...) (24 years ago, 10-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Many grade school teachers don't know squat about science, I once got an email from a concerned parent because her son's teacher was telling the students that the grand canyon was formed by a meteorite, as opposed to the less obvious river....

(...) The schist you say! Okay, no more mister gneiss guy if you are going to drag the whole U.S. Geologic Survey. But I'll bet their busy playing with their orogenous zones. Bruce (24 years ago, 10-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
