  1. So planet of the apes is coming?!
  2. If the Israeli government is exempt for humor then this entire thread should be closed. I see no reason to exempt The Israeli government from political humor, they are no more exempt from humor than anyone else.
  3. I thought mistermack's joke was quite spot on my funny bone. I don't have anything against jews but israeli policy has long been lampooned for being somewhat less than gentle to those who dare to disabree with them. I don't hate israel as many who simply criticize them are accused of doing but I see no reason to kiss their ass either.

  5. I enjoyed her books of fiction... but the AAT has been shown to be false.
  6. I can see a house being made up of living trees, I've seen trees grown into various shapes, some resembling houses and even partially functional, but moving objects? Maybe with a lot of genetic engineering.

    What is a fish in the most interesting of those questions. Depending on how you define "taxon" we either are fish or fish is not a meaningful label for vertebrates. https://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/Taxon_types.htm

    Yes fish dance, watching their mating dances is one of the rewards of fish keeping!
  10. I hadn't thought of that answer, i was going for Pithyon.
  11. What do you call a snake that is 3.14 meters long?
  12. At the time of those writings the sun and moon were considered planets, but the earth was not and some even counted venus and mercury twice as evening and morning stars. We know now that the sun and moon are not planets and that mercury and venus are only one planet not four. I'm not seeing anything profound in the poetry than can be interpreted as accurate discriptions of the heavens. What was the definition of planets at the time is also important, if I understand correctly only objects that moved against the background of stars counted but now days we only count 8 planets. I'm not sure if there is a definition of planet that would suggest only 9 objects are planets.
  13. The purpose of life is obvious, to reproduce and create more life.
  14. I see, I misunderstood.
  15. I didn't see another thread on this, I'll look again. I can't seem to find the other thread, can you give me a link to it?
  16. A new study suggest dinosaurs might have been much smarter than originally thought! https://www.labroots.com/trending/neuroscience/24431/t-rex-smart-baboon
  17. Holes in cloud layers are cool as well.
  18. Yes but tumbleweeds only tumble after they are dead.
  19. I was confused about the volume but I still don't believe him, there are no scientific papers or peer review in the aquarium hobby. Anyone can claim anything.
