come to think of it, there's a deeper question... why do I argue with uneducated religious cavemen like optional?

btw, fibonacci is a not some sort of mystical natural sequence, see http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/pseudo/fibonacc.htm

I can see many of you don't have a formal education in mathematics. Math is an abstraction and not a model, quantum mechanics is underpinned by mathematics that you cannot grasp by simply 'observing nature'. Much of mathematics is not even useful in physics. We engineer the world around us in...

no, that's not exactly right. Mathematics was not an imitation, and many engineered items have no parallels in nature. There is a large field in electromagnetics right now called metamaterials because the materials produced have no natural analogies.

There's a public option right now for some called medicare, ask the geezers about how sucky it can be. Oh and you guessed it, it's perpetually bankrupt and threatens our economy with huge unfunded mandates. did some nitwit just say he wants that expanded???

TARP wasn't obama, stimulus on borrowed money is an old liberal joke that's so easy that even Bush did it , yet simpletons think Barry's a genius

What kind of god are you talking about? I hope you aren't suggesting on the one hand that nature is god and therefore almost infinitely powerful in calculation and complexity, but yet communicated to us through some 2000 year old children's story book

Motivational stories are the epitome of survivorship bias, I doubt they change the outcomes for most.

I agree with TZ, just go prove it at a place made for such things.

I have to wonder... about the guy rushing to show the world his methodology works, and the guy working like mad to show it doesn't.

that tax would kill me, I hate these people I had a thought, would the mini's be exempt since they are below 125K?

No, hitler was not driven by religion. But funny you should mention Hitler, who was congratulted by arab muslims for how he dealt with the jews. Sadat 'the moderate middle' had to say this: "My dear Hitler, I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. Even if you appear to have been...

you don't know that. They were not inspired by christianity to rob a liquor store, on the other hand radical Imams preach violence and islamic terror is in the name of religion, not an ounce of crack. no kidding, and the source of those laws? You keep having to point out Malaysia, that's...

Sure the UAE is safe, they quickly kill any offenders, such as people who promote atheism or any other religion. As long as you do exactly as told, you are safe pretty much anywhere in the world. Being clean and safe isn't the sole definition of a good place to live. The USSR was safe...

It's obvious you don't have an argument. The facts are that promoting atheism is against the law in Saudi, the facts are that muslims come to the US but americans do not immigrate to muslim countries, the facts are that muslims are causing problems in Europe as they do almost everwhere else...

I didn't say insult the locals, I meant simply to state publicly my atheism, or have a beer, or kiss my woman,... In Saudi I am dead, in LA no problem. In the medevil backwards religion of Islam, simply disagreeing is grounds for death. The obvious truth is that muslims create intolerant...

Optionals 1% argument is bullshit for many reasons. First of all, why does this 1% even exist? That's a hell of a lot of violent terrorists- 10 million in fact. larger than any army on earth. Why does only Islam create this violent 1% everywhere it exists? Because Islam is a hate...

The mistake the west is making is to take freedom and tolerance for granted. At their first opportunity muslims will take them away, but in the meantime will gladly use freedom and tolerance against us. Muslims demand respect and tolerance but never give it, sort of the definition of an ass...

Ask the swedes how well muslims melt into the pot. There are numerous examples of why multiculturalism does not work, to name a few: Quebec, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, USSR, Scotland, Tibet, Iraq, Belgium, muslims anywhere in the west... plenty of examples where monoculturalism is...

how the frack do you know that?
