Usually we post sciency polls, but since this is a big night and so many of our posts have been about it today...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

wow! your artwork is great

So I'm reading and I come across a post by sayonara. I look at his icon and its dancing to the beat of the music I had playing (highway to hell). That things the devil, I swear it!

I've realised that there seem to be very few females (or at least ones who post) using this forum. Why do you think that is?

I have to write a demonstartive speech about anything I can demonstrate, or at least show. Does anyone out there know where I can find graphs and charts on an electro magnetic pulsating emiter? I got a thing on how to make one, but not what they do on a magnetic scale. Or if you have any other ideas for me, please tell...

Since nobody else has started this and it's almost Easter Sunday, I thought I would. Who's got easter eggs then?

...to DocBill. Did he leave?

As you all may no, i have recently been under scrutiny from the monitors of this site. I have tried to do nothing more than bring soem comedy and humour to this site, give it a new aspect if you will. And in return i have recieved nothing but HUMILIATION and DISBARMENT. Most of my posts have been removed i am constantly under ridicule and no one appreciates my work. It is because of these atrocities that i am here before you all today. I have come to the realization that I will never be appreciated here, and have decided to move on. I will no longer be a part of Scienceforums.net, for I am no longer welcomed. I do feel, however it is my duty as a citizen and a leader to w…

Has anyone seen this film yet? Personally I thought the effects on it were pretty damn nice, although the story left much to be desired. Apart from that, it wasn't too bad.

BLIKE IS OWNED

^sucks :D Congrats faf, looks like your school is just all-around better.

I cropped the photo

I'd like to say that even though some of my stuff are jokes, my stuff in physics and psycology is full on seriousness.

Yesterday, scientists for Health Canada suggested that men should take a look at their beer consumption, considering the results of a study showing the presence of female hormones in beer. The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the findings, 100 men were fed six pints of beer each. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned.

I posted 2 replies to threads - the squid thing and the star wars thing but they haven't shown up - why? Is it some crappy server thingy or what? Bear with me - I'm an impatient sort of person who doesn't respond well to glitches!!

I've got Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell for PC and I don't see an option to use my controller. Can anyone help me? It's kinda frustrating...

The "other" forum I belonged too had a "chatroom" through sorcery.net. It was no biggie to set it up. We would arrange to have "Chats" by people in various fields (ussually friends of mine). For example, we had Michio Kaku (Strings), we had Elaine Morgan (Anthropology), and we had W. S. Davis (Cosmology). I also had Astronomer Martin Rees (Astronomer Royal of UK) interested, as well as Dorion Sagan (Yes: THAT Sagan), Lynn Margullis (Discovered Sybmiosis), Brian Greene (you all know who he is), Seth Shostack (SETI) and several others. But....I left the forum before all could come to fruition. Would that be possible here? Just wondering. Thanks; Bill

As we approach the eve of the time change, one cant help but wonder the purpose of this seemingly unnessicary notion. We all seem to be doing just fine on the current time right? The Machavelian aspects of this, in context of political and agricultural benefits is obvious, but is it nessicary. I know its only a minor gripe and the adjustments become second nature within a week or so for most people. But this change is just a microcosim of some of the unorthadox practices here in the States. I would like to here others opinions on DST as well as other unorthadox practices here in the states.

I am in the process of putting togeather my next book. I have run into an unussual snag: the title. I have 2 that I like, and cannot choose. I would very much like to read YOUR views. Background: the book is an examination as to why American Public Schools are amoung the worst in the world, while Private and Home schooled students are at or above the world average. The book will not be very "warm and fuzzy" and will make some pretty unpoplular statements which will be backed up by facts. Here are the title choices, and please, if you hate both fine. What I don't need are suggestions as to a "Better" title. These two were chosen out of several by my agent, publicist an…

As I begin writing this next book, I am looking for stories about how public education is letting down students. I am seeking examples, anectodtes, stories, etc. At the same time, I am also hoping to find some positive stories from schools, private, public, homeschools, whatever. If you believe that your time is wasted in school..now is the time to say so. All names will be kept 100% confidential. Please e mail your acounts to: drwdavis@prexar.com subject heading: "Book" Thanks Bill
