Alright, that's cool. Either way, at least somebody should be able to find what they want! :D:D

Is that for both fora? I hope it works, too! :-)

I remember seeing statistics that linked women's literacy rates and education to steady or negative population growth. It even had a higher connection than economic prosperity. The reasoning was...

Question to SVF: do you think that the declining population rates in Europe and Japan are too slow?

Yeah, I'm trying to remember where I heard that now...

That's pretty interesting. It looks from that like there's at least a morphology at work there. Who knows, that may not be the extent of it.

They can only communicate on a small scale compared with humans, though.

Human language is different than animal communication. There are characteristics in human language that don't exist as...

They don't have the equipment for speech on the level of humans. Our organs are set up so that we can form hundreds of sound combinations, as opposed to a few hundred calls. If they were to ever...

No, they won't.

Reminds me of this article.

I agree with Reiku on that point. However, Mycernius has made me think a little deeper about this. I still think that Hitler is the most infamous, but if Mao's actions were to be as well known as...

I go with Hitler, too. He's the most well-known and well-referenced of all of them. That's the reason that there's the theory that the first person to bring up Hitler in an argument automatically...

Yes, unless they've put you on their ignore list.

Discrimination against smokers, I would assume. Unless you wanted to coin a new term: "smokism." But I don't think that works very well.

It's not racism unless it's discriminatory against a race.

There are plenty enough anti-tobacco commercials here, trust me (I'm especially referring to those annoying "truth" commercials). Also, I think in California and New York there are bars where...

I'm a former smoker. I quit about five times before the last time (hopefully it really will be the last time). When I did smoke I smoked close to a pack a day, and when I would go out drinking I...

I think ignoring can be healthy if paying attention just causes you stress. I've used the ignore list and it's made my life more peaceful. I've also chosen to ignore people "in real life" and...

I agree with you that it shouldn't happen, but they're still called "debates." I still think of arguing as being essentially the same as a debate, but now that I think about it a little, perhaps an...

I agree with sabro. And debates can involve personal stake -- for instance, the presidential debates. Those can also involve mud flinging and name calling.

Reading that makes me want to cry. I can take solace in the fact that she was happy with what she was doing when she died, though. We should all be so lucky.

I remember where I was very clearly when I heard about the disaster. I was in fourth grade, and our teacher called us into the classroom to tell us about it. I remember thinking at the time that it...

I think it depends on when the abortion is conducted. There's a certain point where the fetus has developed all of its organs, and at that point it's human (I think right before the third trimester...

I'm just glad that people who read this will finally know that there is no southern accent! There are a multitude of them.

By the way, mine's pretty localized; it's even different from my...

How about sending a PM?
