Yo, Mr. G...remember me?¿ Mr G., I think it is dangerous flirting with such questionable modes of politicism. You are most probably correct in your reaction of thinking it scary that so many people (without sufficient research, certainly) buy into these misty tangents of political...

Claude Bernard... I'm looking for info on Claude Bernard (French biologist) regarding his work on probiotics, intestinal flora, and beneficial bacteria; i.e. Lactobacillus and bifidium. Also, does anyone know if yeast and E.Coli benefit digestion?

¿Government? Hmmmmmm... I personally think that the idea of government involvement is preposterous....Why would they bother sneaking around, only to leave a very suspicious bunch of carcasses around? It is not an average situation, which is why it is attracting peoples attention and inviting...

Its all about analysis... Just formulate your own plausible, well-minded opinion...not that difficult..right?

Jeez, did I just kill this thread too??? So I'm a little bit analytical, so what???

Thought VS. Artificial Thought... Hi there ESP! You have inspired another musing out of me. Along a slightly different vein... How do I know if I am entertaining a "real" thought or an "artificial" thought. This is an interesting distinction. ¿If a machine or a software program first...

Bicycle Seats and Almonds... Please don't think I'm sick, folks. I'm not really...It's all just a guise: Bicycle Seats & Almonds I happily prance through the radish patch And gratefully gallop through greens, Predaciously prowl through persimmons And notice the new...

Yo Babelina & Pollux V! J'ai estudie francais pour sept ans en ecole, mais je ne practice pas parce que mes amis ne parle pas le langue. J'ai oublie le plus, c'est tres dommage, n'est-ce pas? And this is genuinely from my memory, not babel fish... Pollux, you hippy! Babelina you hippy! I'm...

The Golem of Shamus Levine... Okay Pollux V, you have convinced me. Here is one I am still working...Also known as: Thrombuldee Blitherop Thrombuldee Blitherop fleddled to town On a bicycled violin, On a bright, sunny day Did he pedal and play, And made everyone dance In...

Muse and Inspiration Time.... It seems as though unlikely timing and inspiration go hand in hand . It is always when I am far from any means of transcripting that a bright idea strikes: no pen or no paper, no tape recorder, etc...¿Why is this, I wonder? Perhaps it's the trade we have to make.

¿How do we "get to the bottom" of the Gaia issue? The preceeding posts by Tristan, Avatar, Mr. G and myself are actually directly related to the topic of this thread in their point that we may have a wealth of information about our Universe, but perhaps not enough to assert as to whether or...

"Classical" Classification... Spacecat 27, "Classical" music, unlike "antique" furniture actually refers to an ongoing genre of music which is still being composed, albeit under some different rules (12 tone, quartertone, polyharmonic, free-form) than were traditionally used before the last...

Einstein's Violin Playing... It is interesting that the intellectual part of his work was safe behind his security in its accuracy, but felt more vulnerable when it came to right-brained functions...In contrast Mozart was so sure of the "soundness" (pun intended) of his life's work that he went...

Quite true... I agree, Tristan and Mr. G. For with knowledge "any" is "much". And as Daevid Allen of Gong sang, "The more you know, the more you know you don't know...". By the mass of knowledge we have garnered about our planet and the universe we must also realize that there are niagaras...

For Some, not for others... This is the flipside to my last post. It is also clear that drugs are not mandatory for the fruitfulness of one's creativity, and that only in certain cases have the creators attributed their artistry to a substance. I am a student of classical violin (among other...

?A Formulaic Description of Our Lifeforce...? Really what I was requesting in my last post on this thread was a name for the force which animates all living things or a formula by which to describe it. Up until now I have not met one, nor can I venture the mathematical language required to...

Excellent question, James R... Possibly this scientist's implication is not founded upon a premise wherein the human mind is a product of evolution itself. I believe that what he means by... ...is that he does not believe that our species evolved; he makes no mention of any other species...

¿Drug-induced creativity? Different drug varieties modify different parts of our processes: Amphetamines temporarily increase our stamina and our focus while decreasing our need for sleep; marijuana is an euphoric which can create very dreamlike, subjective thought patterns while dulling pesky...

Ciao pronounced as "chow"... Psy-learner is correct, Pollux V. "Ciao" is the Italian word for "bye". Oh, & Banshee...I'm sure I have no telepathic link to Mr. G; I was just impressed by his choice of syntax in his last reply on this thread. He can be a little feisty (no offense intended...

Kinamic & Psy-learner I was just being silly, guys... Of course the popsicle melted by absorbing ambient heat! I am the least telekinetic person I know. Though that does not mean that there aren't people who posses this ability... Good luck on your search...
