Wow Chris,.. you write your own material??? Actually, my "type" as you put it is, both on this network and the world, as statistically dominant as productive plants are in an average field. But let us not take the analogy too far. I guess you thought by ripping my last paragraph out from its groundwork everyone would forget what was written right before that, and you could draw a steriotypical conclusion of who I am for all those incapable of thinking for themselves. It seems that you are also trying to define science for me? Is not science simply the compilation and correlation of sensory data, towards the future prediction of events?? Did anyone ever really get down and say "only information compiled by out external senses (ie. eyes, ears, etc.) allowed here? Even if they did, I don't see why I should respect their opinion without CONCLUSIVE proof that those are the only sensors. I know, I know, that's not possible to provide, right? So why don't you go back and try to provide a decent comment on my words before the ones you quoted, because they are quite conclusive. If you consider them, you will find that either there is really more to me and you than what we see, or everything is meaningless. ------------------------------- "Who is the greater fool: He that claims to know truth, or the one who scoffs while himself searching for it?" -me Total disclaimer--My words are not my own, nor my employers.
