Re: Help getting the Nova Show
Um, why?
Added by edit.
It's the most annoying thing that have ever existed.
Edited by Taz, : No reason given.

Owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have occasionally used the academic jargon generator to produce phrases that even I don't fully understand. The jargons are not meant to offend anyone or to insult anyone's intelligence!

Oh, its not by choice. =)
I get on real browsers from home. Like now.

Of course, biblical creationists are committed to belief in God's written Word, the Bible, which forbids bearing false witness; --AIG (lest they forget)

Re: Help getting the Nova Show
Don't be hating on Lynx, it serves its purpose when you are in a non-graphical environment. Admittedly it is less useful now almost every website has flash coming out the wazoo, but 10 years ago it was handy.

Re: Help getting the Nova Show
I almost have a torrent for this ready to go. Anyone else interested? If so please email me @yahoo.com. Same userid is my avatar.
Nosy, if you don't have bittorrent get it here:
http://www.bittorrent.com/
I assume it was you who emailed me. I'll send it over to you in a jiffy.

I've downloaded BT. I hope this isn't too much fuss for you.

Re: Thanks --
No actually, making it a torrent is a lot easier. It makes it so I don't have the problems I described in my email reply to you. And if anyone else would like it, if we both seed it it will go faster for them too.
Right now I am just converting the file to a smaller format because when it ripped off the DVR it came back at almost 1GB.
I hope you have broadband.

Canadian Bits

Which, as of this month, are bigger than your bits, buster.

Re: Canadian Bits
Now, now boys. If you want to have a fight about the size of your bits play nice and close the door. We'll all wait with baited breath for the outcome
Seriously, though, I've managed to get a transcript of the programme online. Interesting stuff. I'll hopefully get a chance to read it after I get rid of the appalling picture in my mind of the bit contest. I'm gonna wake up screaming in the middle of the night for the next month or so. Thanks guys

18D:
So just because a small town in Rural PA had their heads firmly planted up their asses, doesn't mean that the universities that trained our aerospace engineers are teaching 14th century science. Its just an inappropriate generalization.
Then it's a good thing no one generalized in the way you describe.
What I described was just amazement (and amusement) that things like Dover can happen. Here, local school boards don't have that power. Here, local school boards don't exist.
Rest assured that people in the Asia-Pacific region understand bigness. Both Asia and the Pacific are good teachers. And they understand that folk beliefs can persist in advanced cultures. All countries face their challenges in that regard.

Hmmm.
Vast natural resources, puny armed forces, a tendency to lean a little too left, and, now, bigger bits than ours.
You've already been warned about the Weakly Managed Drugs (WMDs), both pharma and green.
I expect the neocons will soon be sounding the alert on this threat to the American Way of Life (AWOL).
Operation Maple Leaf, anyone?

Real things always push back.

Re: Why There's a Controversy
I've updated Message 19 with an accurate quote from the local reporter featured in the Nova program, and here it is again:
"If you believe in heaven and hell, and if you believe you have to be saved, nothing else could possibly matter, not the first amendment, not science, not rational debate. All that matters is that you're going to be rejoined with the people you love most on this earth."
--Percy
