Thank you for the information; I wanted to know because of a StarCraft-based fanfiction I'm writing :smile:
P.s. Nice of you to think about the humane applications of such a theoretical situation... Although my specific dilemma was oriented at sci-fi stuff :rolleyes:
There was no "Geology section" so I guess here is where this thread belongs.
So, can a nuclear explosion blast one of the slopes of a volcano and open a gap through which lava will flow? Or will it be insufficient. By "nuke" I mean a bomb of ~20 kilotons, something between "Little Boy" and...
I initially thought of writing it imitating The Republic (a third of which I have read), but it turned out that, the blog being the first ever draft of my thoughts, there isn't much clear dialectic, especially in the first chapters.
Nonetheless, a dialog allows for occasional broadness and two...
4. None. But it could be the side-effect of some sort of innate desire that WAS implanted in the species by natural selection.
5. Maybe they are like the ants or termites. There is no competition between individual workers in a bee hive after all and they work as a big team. Or, among these...
So, since my sophomore class until now - my senior class - I have been thinking about mankind and control and I came up with ideas, such as what control is or what is the purpose of the existence of species and then of individuals. So fare they are in my blog (http://sizarieldor.blogspot.com)...

Well, as a young boy I, being autistic, oftentimes liked to think of cars and other vehicles as having "faces" (you know the lights... and the windows on an airplane's cabin). Furthermore, I liked most models, which looked "frowning" and "angry", so that they express supremacy for example...

It will get stickier and stickier. Everybody's guilty.
3 nights ago there was this big storm and it rained all evening and all night - first very hard, then some of...
Cognitive capabilities definitely increase as you grow up - I mean, an adult is usually more clever than a kid...
But if you are asking about the quantity of the IQ as defined by the tests - yea, tests are designed so that a kid with the same result as an adult gets more IQ points and there is...
Aesthetically Sindarin or Quenya (elvish from LotR) sound the best - here's Tolkien reading some Sindarin: http://www.lotrplaza.com/elves/sindarin/tolkien-elbereth.wav
You know what Charles V said:
