Re: Num num num

Re: In my experience, so true, so true...
:shock: Ewwww!! eWWWWWWWWW!!! Hope you haven't/aren't suffering any bad (#4) aftereffects. Back when I's racing scoots I worked in a motorcycle shop as a part time job, & I was surprised how many people rode 'open face'. One accessory we sold was a face shield, a clear lexan or such 'sheet' tha...

Re: What is blue and what is purple?
Being a watercolorist, I tend to think strongly in terms of hue. Aside from photography's ability (especially in the digital age) to accurately record and reproduce them, I don't have a bit of realized difficulty determining which is which. I have more problem with where purple becomes violet.

Re: In my experience, so true, so true...
Haha, well, I knew that it had to be something like that. I mean, you eat the entire body minus the shell and it has to think, reproduce, and poop somehow. An oyster has no central nervous system at all, so you can be sure there's no thinking going on. And just how can you be so sure that 's what t...

Re: APOD: Views from Cassini at Saturn (2011 Jun 13)
Though I greatly admire the images we've been receiving from Cassini these several years (have a series of 3 I regularly rotate as my desktop, in fact), I didn't particularly care for this presentation. Basic complaint - too 'jerky'. I think it'd come off much better with some transitional 'smoothin...

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......I'm sorry guys, but while I would never begrudge anyone's liking of opera or dismiss it as "for the birds", I'm afraid it just basically isn't my cup o' tea. When it comes to birds & death stuff, I lean more in this direction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOa...

AH! - hearts after my own.

Re: APOD: Space Shuttle and Space Station... (2011 Jun 08)
I had an opportunity to see a shuttle launch in 1982. It is a feast for the senses at low frequencies. The most powerful part of the action is beneath auditory perception and you just feel the vibration. It just vibrated my sternum, bones and guts in a way that was novel to me. As for what you can ...
