    Oceans, alleged ancients, on Mars.

    So what? None of these new findings has said anything about liquid water. Ice is ice. And because previous hypotheses have been shown to be erroneous does not mean that any future hypothesis is any more factual. It was fog composed of ice crystals. And it wasn't "rain" as in liquid water...

    Oceans, alleged ancients, on Mars.

    lmao Some of these comments are just more displays of the ignorance about scientific reality. Yes, the core of Mars is hot. Yes, ice melts when heated. The problem rests with water existing on the surface of Mars. It doesn't. The surface is simply too cold. eannasir is showing his ignorance when...

    New biological weapon: the dreaded bottle of breastmilk

    On CTV news tonight there's a story of a mother who wasn't allowed to carry her baby's breastmilk on board a plane. I think security measures like this are just inane. The stupidity of people who implement some of these measures just astounds me. This story is even more asinine than the 90+ yr...

    The Doomed Mercury

    Actually, I think you are being overly generous in tagging eannasirs ideas as "theories". From Princeton University Press: "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world" is the definition of "theory". From NASA:"An explanation for some phenomenon that is based on...

    This summer may see first ice-free North Pole

    rofl I don't believe that humans are the sole reason for climate change, but I really have to laugh when a couple examples of LOCAL weather are given as proof against GLOBAL change.

    Mars is inhabited.

    lol I've seen the moon looking awfully red sometimes. :D Also silver, orange, green, yellow, and blue. I've seen Mars twinkle, too, so it must be black sometimes, besides being red. lmao WOW!!! This must mean that they are really like kaleidoscopes and constantly changing their constitutions...

    This summer may see first ice-free North Pole

    Yup. The climate changes. Mean temps go up & down. How about that? What's next year gonna be like? Is this ice age gonna last or is it just a spike and in a couple years it'll be even warmer?

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    I agree. Peersonally, I don't think there is any 1 cause.

    Moose recipes

    If you aren't used to eating moose, watch out that there's a clear path to the loo and have a gas mask handy. lol Braising steak is pretty good. Mix in some bacon with it and it is quite good after marinating in a tomato based sauce. Potting the roast with veggies is awesome, too. Also moose...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Graphs of mean global temps: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs/Fig.A2.lrg.gif Anyone who thinks global warming is a myth is an idiot. I think it is still too hard and too early to say whether we're fully involved , partially involved, or not at all involved in why climate change...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Adaptation, evolution, mutation or whatever. My point here is that they were not the same species after they had become resistant because their qualities had changed. They were leaf rollers but not the same type of leaf roller afterwards. I was only talking about evolution, not speciation which...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    We had a filbert bush in our back yard one time that had gotten infested with leaf rollers (they are bugs). I sprayed and that cut the population down, but a couple years after that I had to spray with a different inhibitor as they had become enured to the first. In total I used 3 different...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Sorry, but I know the technology to limit smog for instance exists. TekCominco sure did a pretty good job of reducing their pollution. So If they can cut back on their emissions, I am sure that China could START OUT with lots less. So what I can reason from that is that they aren't interested in...

    Galactic Federation of light have you heard of them.?

    There are fans that are supernatural? Jeeez, I just got one from Walmart last month. Maybe I should keep my eye on it in case it does something weird. Maybe it levitates or becomes invisible. Maybe it blew psilocybin dust into eannasir's lungs. lmao
