Well, pudding by its very nature must have some flavor, even if that flavor is just of eggs and milk (as I imagine custard would be if you forgot the sugar).

Isn't this a little like saying that a discussion on the merits (or failings) of pudding isn't necessary because of the existence of ice cream?

I'm *still* working on Tempus Irae. I got swamped with other things and put it down for a while, but I'm about 2/3 through it now. It's still awesome.

No BS.

Wrong again, tl.

This is what tiga wants:

Well, the education they're getting (in rural villages) is pretty sub-par. All they are learning (from what I gather) is 1-4th grade stuff, and few can afford the schooling. These laptops will allow them to use today's technology, and learn for free via internet. There's a hidden premiss here, whic...

It is as accurate a depiction as I believe possible.

I disagree. I feel it entirely fails to capture the impetus of our new friend's motivations and intentions.

Your thoughts on the issue? Are you essentially suggesting two different "Chat" forums? Or is Infinitys going to be password protected to prevent CLIQUE from being met with tons of meaningless posts when logging in? In the first case, if you mean to supply two different Chat forums, that ...

Physics.

The students thought whoever made the joke originally must have been a huge physics geek.

FWIW, I showed this to my students, and they stared at the whiteboard puzzled for a minute until one of them finally got it. Much furious scribbling then ensued, and I have a feeling this "epic truth" will be appearing all over the internets.

WELL!

Also, Henshin: 299792458 is exact by definition. Yes, this is quite true (given units m/s). However, what is completely wacky is that it is ALSO the inverse of the square root of the product of two IRRATIONAL numbers: the permittivity of free space and the permeability of free space! And, it is thr...

On a different note, I'm kind of confused about how I feel toward Johnny now. Let me help you, then. While his "points," when clarified by the rest of us, make for a fun stroll-in-the-park discussion about philosophy, he clearly intended them as a sort of "straw-man" attack, as ...

Yeah, I have to admit that thread is as close to epic as we're likely to see in these parts.

Impressive rebuttal, but I know something you don't know: I am not left-handed! This would make a nice coffee-house discussion, where we could eventually dip into the deadly wells of arguing about whether this discussion has deontic applications at all (ie, are we really talking about what's "O...
