Welcome!
I was excited to find this forum. I am not a scientist, just a mom with some curiousities.
​
Hi there! Welcome to EvC! There are some links in my signature that might be of help in getting settled here. Here at EvC we welcome the curious with open arms
​
I am not a scientist, just a mom with some curiousities. I was shocked to see how seemingly intelligent people insult eachother. I thought this was supposed to be a discussion.
​
Let me assure you that asking questions is almost universally responded to positively. People do get frustrated, and tempers can flare during debate - but this is usually restricted to when a position is being debated rather than questions being asked
​
I just wanted to say it was refreshing to read your comments. You seem very intelligent..and in my humble opinion, I have always thought that you are not a truly intelligent person, unless you know how to be kind.
​
Thank you, that was very kind of you I agree, there are more virtues than intelligence, and you can have lots of one virtue but still be a horrible person to be near.
​
I posted this on my Admin alias so I could post the admin sig.
​
Take care, and please, ask your questions!

Re: Welcome!
This guide should help you with the blue quotes and all the other codes used on the site. Also, when you make a post, to your left are some help links for dBCodes and HTML. And finally, there is a magic button at the bottom of posts that says "peek". If you click on that it will let you know how the person did all the things they did in their post.

In basic terms to make a quote box you type
​
[qs]This is my quote[/qs]
​
and it comes out as
​
This is my quote
