  Re: The play's the thing (was Re: Does God have a name for God have a name for God....)
 
(...) No matter what the result is, there will always be someone eager to: Misinterpret it. Fake it. Believe it happened according to his own pet theory. Robert (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Courtesy? (was: lots of other stuff)
 
(...) Well, I'm not interested in getting into your other debate, but I disagree with your opinion on this point. I think that is *exactly* the *difference* between courtesy & respect - one is given freely, the other is earned. ROSCO (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Does God have a name for God? (was: 20 Years of TLC's Frustration with "LEGOS")
 
(...) It's probably using the reference header to sort them instead of the subject. Just out of curiosity, what news reader are you using? Seems odd that it should randomly put spaces into the subject line. o_O (...) Gee, PKB lames, have ye reached (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: The play's the thing (was Re: Does God have a name for God have a name for God....)
 
(...) Just try & cool it Robert. It may sound like that to you, but yours is only one opinion. (...) No, some may have followed your links - that doesn't imply they know who you are. ROSCO (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Is Robert Bevens exceedingly obnoxious? (was: Does God have a name for God? (was: 20 Years...))
 
(...) Uh, excuse your stupidity, but after doing it just once, one should be able to tell it breaks the thread apart...unless they're just blind or stupid, and I sure as heck wouldn't ever call Jennifer stupid. I mean if you're having such a (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) They did a show about him on the Biography channel, it was quite good. They showed some of the SNL takes and such. Aparently the "Cosmos" series was one of the biggest it public television history. Robert (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: The play's the thing (was Re: Does God have a name for God have a name for God....)
 
(...) No, not really. (...) You make it sound as if I've gone to some great length to hide my identity. A couple weeks ago I posted some links to pictures of some of my models, two new, and one old. So anyone following my work would obviously know (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) 100% not true. Actually, it was the WAY Sagan said "billions" that got him into trouble. When he did the "Cosmos" TV series, Sagan over pronounced the "B" in billions so that it wouldn't sound like "millions." It was so noticable that people (...)

  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) Every other word out of his mouth was "billions and billions." He must have said it....billions and billions of times! Bruce (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) ...and, just to stay on this thread, did you know that William Shatner wrote a book called 'Get a Life!' after his infamous SNL appearance? Ahhh, self-reflection, isn't it grand? (Granted, Sagan was much more likeable than Shatner.) best (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: You shoulda seen the Spy plane that got away (and other fish stories)
 
(...) Boy, shows how much *you* know about effortless fishing. The laziest method, of course, involves TNT. The shockwave does the work.[1] (...) A well-placed depth charge could have solved that whole problem. (Okay, you might not have ended up (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Spy plane (was: Why is religion so hot?)
 
(...) And they say that understated humour is lost on the Internet...;) (...) I'm not sure what's patriotic or not patriotic about any of that. Partisan, perhaps, and occasionally pedestrian. ;) best Lindsay (Besides, you can just look at the old (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) Heh heh, did you know Sagan actually wrote a book by the same title? He was actually a funny guy, and poked a lot of fun at himself and that misquote that made him famous (the poor fella denied ever saying "billions and billions"). D-Man (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
(...) I have a battered copy that I've read into decrepitude! I got it as a Christmas present many moons ago, and it was my first large-scale exposure to cosmology. I especially loved the little "Encyclopedia Galactica" snippets throughout. Good (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Carl Sagan's "Cosmos"
 
Greetings! I first read this book many, many years ago when I was 10 years old: (URL) read it again several times since and I always found it facinating. It is undoubtedly a powerhouse of knowledge and perspective on the universe and our place in (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Essential nature of mankind
 
The question of whether man is inherently good or evil is a loaded question becuase the concept of good and evil is purely subjective. For instance, one culture may view cannibalism as evil, but for the cannibals it's just part of their cultural (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Alien races
 
(...) Ryan, I mean no disrespect to your beliefs, but you are in error regarding the age of the earth. This is not a spiritual matter and certainly not an issue of the many creation stories of various cultures. If your faith or personal spiritual (...)
