There's a lot of madness like that in the animal kingdom. Think of the life cycles of Eels or Salmon for instance. Or Newts hauling themselves out of nice cosy ponds to treck across fields and roads in the blind hope of finding another pond the same. Eels have crazy lifecycles. I thought they could travel a long way over ground, but this says thousands of miles. This map solves a century-old mystery about eels - Big Think BIGTHINK.COM For the first time ever, scientists were able to link eel migration to their presumed spawning grounds in the Sargasso Sea.

I'm enjoying the way it seems to move by concertinaring itself.

I though that too. Nonchalant about the seemingly near misses with the roof as well.

It's good but I'd not say I was a massive fan. I read the books when I was younger and heard various bits of it on the radio probably. Random bits like the 42 just stick in my mind, another quirk of the human memory. I'll re-read it one day. And Lord of the Rings. They'll be a refreshing dose of human creativity in a wasteland of AI garbage in a few years.

Exactly. The answer to everything.

I first started using it when I was about 22, probably for the first ever stupid internet thing that I needed to sign in to. Never even imagining that I'd ever grow into it. Hey ho ......

Nah, I'm just hiding behind internet anonymity.

I was teasing you mate, I was amused by the edit. I wish I was 38 still! I've got 11 years on that.

Don't get me wrong; I wasn't suggesting for a minute that faith/religion and intelligence are mutually exclusive. (The two that I referred to are both extremely sharp.) It's just that to my mind critical thinking seems to dispel most of the principle tenets of religion. I'm puzzled that someone can believe in something that doesn't make logical sense. The coexistence of subjective and objective realities maybe, is that what I mean? I'll stop there as I have neither the philosophical knowledge nor vocabulary.

Nice use of masonry. What's the idea of squashing your meat?

And another nice one. No nonsense, no ego. Got to say though, I'm not a fan of his new tache. It'll be a few years yet until he grows into it I feel.

Nah, not this time.

No dogging pics either, thank you.

Fixed that for ya.

Ah, so they do. The dirty devils. I was reading about Sovereign Citizens the other day.

Falsetto loveliness. They do seem to get unfairly overlooked.

Yes and no. I don't know many religious people at all, of any flavour. However, two of the most devout are long term friends of mine. Both hardcore Christians, church every Sunday, prayers before every meal kind of deal. One is a Consultant Anesthetist, the other is something secret at GCHQ, (trained as a computer scientist). You wouldn't have thought a religious brainwashing would have been conducive to the fields of either Medicine or IT; where logical, critical, common sense thinking are required. Odd.

You have developed a strong resistance to using the Quote button. Why is that? Why do I need to differentiate between could and have, what's that got to with the price of fish? Smells like more Pollocks to me. Have a think about why you so often miss the point being raised in an opposing argument. It's nothing to do with a L vs. R debate, but everything to do with dogma induced ignorance.

I'll try to find a LinxedIn screenshot. That might penetrate the conditioning.
