    What are some of your favorite science-fiction novels?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'd just like to add that the Ender's Game series is really good imo (even though it concentrates more on characters than science). I purchased Anathem a while back but haven't read a page yet, so I'm going to save that for later.

    What are some of your favorite science-fiction novels?

    I'm going to be making a list of good ones to purchase for summer reading. I would like to see what are some people's favorite books here. If you can put a short description or say why you liked it, that would save me the trouble of reading a plot synopsis on wiki. Go, go, go!

    What Can a 21-Year-Old Male Achieve in Weightlifting After 6 Months?

    I lift too, on and off. Taking it more seriously as I go. That's strange, the best time to grow with weight lifting is ages 16-25. After that your body doesn't produce as much testosterone as it did before. My guess is you are talking about gaining weight, if he was an ectomorph then his...

    Schools Didn't know where to put this plan for college/uni?

    Thanks for the advice, and yeah that is true ha! Yeah man I live in GTA area lol. That's pretty generous and it's all good that you don't have it. I have a pretty good textbook that covers all high school math really well in my opinion. Most of the things will come flooding back once I wet...

    Schools Didn't know where to put this plan for college/uni?

    I'll give it a try and do my best. I'm probably not going to take prepatory classes. I just bought a textbook that covers grade 9-12 academic/university math material, and downloaded the provincial curriculum (which is very well organized and easy to understand might I add) for review. I'll head...

    Inception [SPOILER ALERT]- What are your theories?

    The movie will definitely make more sense to you once you watch it. Just make sure you pay attention to everything so you can work through it later on. It will be kind of hard without a copy of the movie at your hand. Everybody I talked with and on forums said DiCaprio was excellent, and in my...

    Inception [SPOILER ALERT]- What are your theories?

    Since this is the General Discussion section I am obviously talking about something general. I'm talking about the biggest movie of the year Inception. I just want to hear other people's theories on if Cobb was in the real world, in a dream, or in limbo at the end of the movie. I am still on the...
