  Re: John Leo's opinion of "The West Wing"
 
(...) I was unclear--my bad. You're 100% correct that there's no real script for her show, so I should have been more precise in my accusation. It's been documented that the Rush Limbaugh radio show, for example, screens its callers, and I believe (...) (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Are we all processes in a simulation
 
Quoting Larry Pieniazek <lpieniazek@mercator.com>: (...) hate to tell you, but you wouldn't know if you're running on an RCX - since to simulate each second you experience the RCX would have an infinite amount of time to compute it, it's power is (...)

  Are we all processes in a simulation
 
At the risk of starting too many interesting threads at once, I present a link I found by reading Kung Fool, a rather amusing webcomic. (URL) only STARTED reading this, I haven't read to the end yet but it's fascinating so far! I can say this, (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) What do you mean? I think you might mean that I am more concerned with the fate of Americans at war than others. If that's right, then I guess I do agree. Not so much on a philosophical level as on a gut reaction level. One random stranger is (...) (22 years ago, 27-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

He seemed to pretty seriously believe in this. But then he was a seminary student for a (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: A bounty on spammers
 
(...) I didn't read all the way through. Does it say how it's going to handle off shore SPAM? Most of the SPAM I receive fits into one of three categories: - e-mail from services I've signed up for (i.e. not really SPAM) - off shore - notifications (...)

  Re: Are we all processes in a simulation
 
(...) It runs into the same logical flaws as religious belief - there is no evidence, or way to acquire credible evidence within the context of the simulation, therefore it is on faith. The principle of Occam's Razor applies, and the simplest answer (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

You mean you don't want to explain your bunker-buster comment, tell us what the USA's official response to SH gassing his own people was, why you want to view Iraq in isolation or even what is “all Britain's fault”?

But what gives Bush, the president of a country with a colourful WoMD track record, a right (...) (22 years ago, 30-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Freedom of Speech? W sez NO!

  Re: LEGO being used in politics! (help me in my dilemma)
