With Romney 'choosing' Ryan as his running mate,
does this mean the GOP are planning to replace Obamacare for Plasmid-care?

Thanks to Rick & E.P. Grondine.

Quote of the Day:

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

it looks a little too tubular, more like those giant plastic hoses they use to dredge sand or hold up a bank from erosion. it's too thin and spiraling for an organic body.

...I forgot how I got here but everyone seems to be heading off in that direction. I hope someone brought food. I have a feeling this is going to be a long journey................

I'm very interested in Neanderthals and I have read many studies. Neanderthals, contrary to popular opinion, were very intelligent and innovative. They had settlemants north of the artic circle before they had control of fire. In any case, the consensus is that there was both a common ancestor and sex with our kissing cousins. The Neanderthal population was a much smaller than our population. So, there was comparatively less sex than there would have been if we had mated with our other cousins the Chimpanzee women! It seems that Neanderthal Women were much sexier than Chimpanzee Women!

What do you think?

I kinda doubt we would have been able to mate with our cousins the chimps, Cnnek ;)

Neanderthals are indeed fascinating.

Why visualize when you can make stimulating comparisons?

But, what about the women? Do you have any pictures of the women? If not, you can get some pictures of the women from "Play Chimpanzee Magazine"!

Was the lady chimp wearing a miniskirt? If so, humanzees may be in our near future!

What do you think?

LOL, didn't think that far down, but I'm sure if they were indeed we would also see them in tight jean shorts...

Nuclear energy has no future in Japan! Many options are being considered and an efficient environmentally friendly combination of methods will be used to generate electricity. Besides Tesla technology and methane hydrates, other possibilities for generating electricity and electricity storage are:

1} Generating elecitricity from wood

2} Fast charging batteries
http://phys.org/news/12-08-lithium-ion-b...

3} A self charging battery

What do you think?

Having better batteries would be great; but it's only part of the equation. The methane hydrates harvesting sounds promising.

Self-charging batteries generate their own electricity and that electricity is free! Large self-charging batteries are the rest of the equation; because, they are, in effect, electric power generators that generate free electric power!

What do you think?
