  1. Troy's example is closer to my point. The language you learn affects how you think. 

     

    The Eskimo example is a good one. Its not actually true though. They have different ways of doing describing snow. Because they ability to discern different types of snow is a matter of survival. 

     

    Some languages are not dependent on word order. And this effects how you think.

     

    I heard but can't verify, but certain words that AA use are Bantu. Ok is Wolof

  2. You and i are different. You are satisfied with expert opinion. I spent more time trying to understand temperature,  weather,  climate and statistics. It is very difficult to find people with any willingness to out in the effort to understand this issue. Its about being informed in order to ask intelligent questions. If there's a referendum yiy can make an intelligent choice. You are projecting your own rigidness.

    You have forgotten my response to National Geographic. You hadn't read the link thst had the pros and cons. Or perhaps you didn't comprehend the implications of the responses. You have belief, I have questions which neither you nor climatologists can answer. 

     

    They changed the name from global warming, because the actual weather didn't match. How come they couldn't see that, because they are bending the numbers.

     

    Al Gore had a staff of four people and the were using more than $100,000 a year in electricity. He was flying all around promoting his program which probably isnt free. I have easily spent scores of hours trying ti understand this issue. Its silly to debate it with those who don't msje any effort to educate themselves. 

  3. George Ben and company told the other George we are engaging in a hostile takeover. Instead of being caretakers we want to own it all. The Indians were framed at the Boston Tea party. So you wipe out your guest. And break every treaty ever signed. It was the independence of White Male land owners. That is what is celebrated. BLM didn't get the memo. When you are obsolete you have to be removed. Just ask the natives. That said I loved growing up in the Bronx and hanging in Manhattan from 1986 - 2006. Yet I know my experience wasn't the norm. 

  4. Troy i am not certain what you are trying to say.  Some words appear to be missing. 

     

    Using your definition it may be logical, however I believe it is faulty. But hey its your super power. Logic isn't really that important on this setting. 

  5. @Pioneer1 the failure is in or with life. So the sadness is the failure of either rhe father to see the son's plight. Ir the son being overwhelmed by life. Neither is a success. Suicide ir the attempt  is the end result of resignation. 

    @Troy you can neither be omniscient nor omnipotent if yiu are capable of killing yourself through boredom. You can see that is true for either state. You may not follow my logic ir argument  though.

    Ddddamn!

    It seems the first time with someone is always the worst of the best, or close to it....

    That hasn't been my experience. 

    @Cynique

    In Australia women who lay there like they are posing are called starfish. Men here complain about it.

     

    When i was single i hadto be attracted to the woman. There have beem situations where i said enough and put the brakes on the proceedings. 

     

    I had two women cheat on me although I was ticking all of those boxes.
