    Right, cause arguing with you is like arguing with God. Got it. By the way, if you have no honor, you shouldn't accuse someone that does of not having it. Why don't you address the post asking if you are capable of admitting to a mistake? Someone that had ANY honor would admit to a mistake and move on. But hey, all you can do is hurl insults and act like you are superior while failing to show the ability to have basic reading comprehension. You are also repeating yourself. Come on, try something better than honorable or peon. I've seen you use those at least 3-times each. The honor when always comes out when you are shown to be a coward. So what do you say, admit you screwed up on page 1 or be safe on page 2 figuring no one but you and me will notice this little exchange? I'm sure I know which it will be.

    I feel ashamed of advocating for CSS. I just read his posts in lounge. He IS a twat. Confirmed. 50-50-90 rule: Anytime I have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability I'll get it wrong...!!

    You must be new here - that is several people's favourite sentence* by CSS. Mustafa and I, in particular, LOVE it. Many's the time I've laughed about it. * I can't bring myself around to call it a quote. :rolleyes: Cheers, Vikram. (Got my troika of CCCs!)

    As much as it pains me, and I'm no expert on the subject so correct me if I'm wrong, but I might have to agree about the fluoride in the drinking water thing.:~ Someone please show me some scientific study (from the last 20 years) that shows that putting fluoride in drinking water actually helps peoples teeth. I don't mean a study that shows fluoride helps teeth, but one that says putting it in drinking water helps teeth. Anybody? There seem to be A LOT of potential problems that can come from fluoride in our drinking water, not just for us but for the environment and only 1 good thing (if it does in fact do any good). And no I'm not basing this off the link he gave, but off several websites I've seen and a few news shows I've seen discussing it. I am a little ignorant in this issue so somebody please educate me.:confused: "The computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than women's fashion. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I have no idea what anyone is talking about. What is it? It's complete gibberish. It's insane. When is this idiocy going to stop?" -- Oracle CEO Larry Ellison

    Even if ALL the ice in the world melted, we would only lose about 2-3% of the land, and in fact places like Canada and Greenland would actually grow in size as they would rise without all the weight of the ice pushing down on them. (This is happening in the UK, the south is slowly sinking and Scotland rising as the ice that covered Britain in the last Ice Age has melted away and is allowing the country to level up to where it was before the Ice Age.) ------------------------------------ In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms. Stephen J Gould
