Hello geckzilla

Is your interest in cosmology.

What is an intelligent response?

Who underwrites it?

Than why write stupid statements.

Trust me, if I had a question, I would ask it. I don't. This is more like reading a book to me than participating in a conversation. I don't talk to books.

...and I stopped reading books exactly because I cant talk to them :) No, I do read if I'm sure that there is some info I am looking for, but no longer for the sake of reading itself. I can no longer enjoy it.

I don't read either, and that was a mediocre analogy at best. Really, there are just some topics I have no input on but still like to read. Is that hard to understand?

My problem with harry is that he rarely, if ever, elucidates on anything. He acts passive aggressive rather and, if anything, obfuscates instead by being vague and condescending, acting like he knows something no one else here does but fails to impart this 'knowledge' on us with each post.

At least craterchains makes it clear that he only thinks we are stupid for not believing intelligent life makes crater chains though his posts have been reduced to a mere snap and string of capital o's and zeros lately.

Really, I can understand disagreeing with bits and pieces here and there and there really is wiggle room in almost any idea/theory/what have you but he seems to disagree with everything just because it's agreed upon by a majority like some damned hippie. Being different for the sake of being different? Take it to the art clubs. Otherwise you better be a fuckin genius with some awesome explanations that can be backed up with evidence.

Not hard at all, I was just thinking if books could be made more interactive somehow... and I do not mean some tree of chained videos that stream upon click here and there, but book answering a question that reader might ask about its content. This would probably require some sofisticated programming... oh, sorry for offtopic :oops:

Hello All

You said

Smile,,,,,,,,,,,let me tell you.

The more I read the more I find that I know very little.

I'm very opened minded.

I have my opinion and respect others.

So tell me, What do you want me to discuss?[/quote]

Yup, makes you wonder why he doesn't get either bored or frustrated.

Perhaps he is just one of those "intelligent" codes, designed to mimic human conversations by giving a standard response to any reply.

:D

Welcome to The Asterisk*, GOD! :-)

Do you have any scientific material that you'd care to share with us, concerning this idea of yours?
Not yet. However Hubble and currently unimagined tech. advances over the next ten years will provide such.
