Good news! Three skeptics - me, Angela and Jacques Rousseau - have made it to the finals of the SA Blog Awards! I've put details on my blag: http://ionian-enchantment.blogspot.com/2010/09/sa-blog-awards-finals.html

I think it's no accident american pharmacies are called "Drug stores". IMHO it's a historical leftover.

(That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

I recall laughing very loudly, actually drawing non-approving stares from the crowd, when watching the Simpsons movie and homer exclaimed: "This book doesn't have any answers!". I LOL'ed a LOT!

At the last SITP, we discussed having a picnic at Groenkloof or Freedom Park. I just wanted to start a topic so that it can be discussed.

Seeing we're skeptics, the question does arise: In terms of whose value system are we judging these activities? I cannot for one millisecond condone it so don't misunderstand me, but if this is socially acceptable in Afghanistan and even a source of status  WTF!! who are we (and American Social Scientists) to judge and by whose standards and morals do we judge?
By the standards that children don't really understand and as such have no chance to say no or yes. We protect children beacuse of this.

At 9 to 15 as a norm it is highly doubtful whether they can make informed decisions.

There was a article in Popular Mechanics a few years back that gave me a idea what the basic idea is, and Mefiante's explanation is as succinct a explanation I've come across. Most of it is still way over my head, but also most of what I know is that M and string theory doesn't answer the questions it set out to answer.

Will have to see what is Hawking's argument.
