Comment by LoveLife&Laughter on March 10, 2015 at 9:19pm: Black holes are the 'mothers' of galaxies and the bond between them. The universe would be even more chaotic without them, they are 'order' so to speak.

Comment by officerripley on March 10, 2015 at 9:09pm: "The black hole is nature's ultimate assault on the notion of a reasonable, friendly universe. No advantage can be extracted from its existence. It adds nothing to the majesty of the natural world. And if there is evidence anywhere that the cosmos does not give a damn for its children, this is it."--from Coming Home by Jack McDevitt

Break up into groups and discuss.

Comment by LoveLife&Laughter on November 25, 2014 at 5:17pm: Bikinis remind me to hit the beach; Volleyball!

Comment by PartTimeBrewer on November 25, 2014 at 8:06am: Advertisers already know how to do this anyway. Put a bikini babe with a six pack in a pickup truck during a football game and zombies by the thousands report to their local vehicle dealerships.

Comment by PartTimeBrewer on November 25, 2014 at 8:03am: There have been numerous research studies that show a person's subconscious knows what actions will be taken a significant amount of time before a person consciously makes a decision to act. So much for our conventional concept of free will. Sam Harris (of Letter to a Christian Nation fame) has written a short book on the subject entitled Free Will. I wonder if this effect was factored into these telepathy findings.

Comment by PartTimeBrewer on November 25, 2014 at 7:55am: Interesting, sorta scary mind control stuff, but is it really what we think of as telepathy. As I understand it, an electronic device, picks up one person's brain waves which are then transmitted by a conventional data transfer method to another device that stimulates a 2nd person's brain. Even if the data transmission was wireless, it would still be conventional. The new stuff here is translating the brain waves into transmittable data and back again. Are both participants seeing the same screen at the same time? if so, wouldn't they both tend, statistically, to fire together with the same visual cues?

Comment by LoveLife&Laughter on June 22, 2014 at 11:32pm: Fat chance this Congress or the next one will wake up any time soon.

Comment by officerripley on June 22, 2014 at 6:11pm: Yep.
