  Re: The Fake Fossil (Was: Problems with Darwin's theory)
 
My God! Someone actually noted a source! Miracles do happen! :-) My wife has been on a anti-packrat campaign of late (me) and has been tossing my National Geographics when the new one comes in, whether I've read it or not. I'll have to go back and (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) I haven't been there in a couple of decades, so I don't know what the policy is now. Certainly in the past you could collect them - it would be hard to enforce much in the middle of nowhere (don't take your low-slung sports car). Finding (...)

  Re: Plagarism in Fantasy Novels? (was Re: Harry Potter?)
 
(...) Oh alright. I agree: written for "young people" or not, the Prydain books are amongst the elite of fantasy fiction. Certainly the best written, for me. I read them as an adult, simultaneously with Eddison's first series. I broke with a long (...) (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

The rest of the world starts a stupid war (excuse me, *stOOpid*, can't emphasize that enough) and has us bail 'em out, and resents it? That chip on yer shoulder big enough? ;-) (...)

Everyone will have to be mystified as to my response. :-( Oh, I'll cover the very last point again because it's quick: the Sumerians, Egyptian, and Indians all developed their cultures along a major (...)

(...) (Banging head against wall) Why oh why was I so silly as to begin reading this thread. Why not just tie 'em to the land and call them serfs? Heck, let's admit that they'll never amount to anything and put them in factories at age 6. Let's (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Why is cockfighting bad? (was: Pokemon (was: Harry Potter Lego Line))
 
(...) You are right, it is not germane. :-) Or to put it another way: you go hunting with a nuke? I don't see how the "right" (need, whatever) to use nukes relates to killing some animal for food (which is what this was about). It's a weird tangent (...)

  Re: Flag Burning
 
(...) Whereas it is not my usual style to burn anyone's flag (it's just cheap theatrics) perhaps the best way to voice my opinion on this would be to go out and burn a flag. Okay, I'd probably just burn a copy of the proposed law, but I think it's (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Does God have a name for God?
