    Are humans more advanced than we think??

    (emphasis mine) Yes... sounds perfectly safe to me. IIRC Civil technology is about ten years behind what the military are currently using and what the military are currently using is about ten years behind what is current State-Of-The-Art. This is due to it taking about a decade to...

    Doctor Who [Spoilers]

    I agree. Dr Who isn't asexual he's non-sexual, at least in regards to humanity. Would you fancy a mayfly even if it looked human and was at least partially compatiable? Of course not. Why should the doctor find anything 'sexy' about such a short living species as humanity? You also have to...

    The pictures were being pulled straight out of Rose's head... that was what he whole point of the conversation. It was a demostration of how powerful the maid's powers were; she'd already read the mind of a Timelord to find out how he liked his tea and now she was pulling fully formed images...

    WTC Demolition Conspiracy

    The answer to both those questions is the same: Two; the Word Trade Centre towers. I'm convinced that the 747's were sufficiently powerfull missles in their own right to destroy the towers. However that doesn't rule out a conspiracy.

    I'm definately of the opinion that the Doctor had :roll: wood :roll: for Jabe and I for one don't fault him. Also remember that Jabe didn''t have to go with him and was given the option of leaving when he became aware of the danger to her. She was a VIP and certainly didn't have to get...

    Personally I'm working on the "we didn't see him dead" premise which means he could turn up after a long stay in hospital... As for "Fighting in the war" we have most of the seventh doctor's and all of the eighth doctor's career unaccounted for. The seventh did strike me as being as being a...

    I loved every moment of it and I didn't give a damn about a lack of regeneration scene; we can see all that later. The tech is finally here that the doctor and his adventures can really be given justice! *dances giddily around like a loon* Dr Who's back! The doctor's back! Whoop! Whoop...

    Threadfinder General: Lost Threads Located

    What's up Key? I saw Thrad just yesterday. We were out enjoying the sunshine when he dropped by with Jack. He gave Kal a wooden horse whittled from an oak knot and then they snaffled the chicken carcass from lunch. After they'd finished he suggested a new line of research for Cujo's next...

    New Machines Could Turn Homes Into Small Factories

    That may be true dreeness but the materials for a firearm need to be able to survive certain stresses. However these.. autofacs.. use materials to that are below those stresses. Indeed high stress material will be too hatd for them to work.

    New Machines Could Turn Homes Into Small Factories

    All it will take is one rebel with 25 grand to start the ball rolling and then nobody will be able to stop it. As for firearms I don't think you'll be able to make a working one with low temp plastics and metals. What'll happen is the blueprints for some items will become valuable. Just...

    In the Eventuality of the End of the World ...

    At a rough guess, you're not a parent. The first priority of any parent is to protect their offspring; it's a biological imperative. Speaking personally heaven, hell and the whole of NATO couldn't keep me from attempting to rescue my children, no matter how irrational it may be at the time...

    Mysterious Deaths Of Microbiologists

    Not one you could use to reliably target any disease. Asians and europeans are cosmetic varients of a single species: H. Sapiens Sapiens. They're not even subspecies; biologically they're identical and genetically the differences are cosmetic. Literally. The differences in DNA between the...

    :rofl: Oh Hunter you jokester; Come on folks he had two broken hips and nothing to look forward to other than a slow downhill slide into agonised senility. He went out just as he planned; if he could drag down some of the bastards in Washington with him so much the better. 8)

    Robert Anton Wilson

    I can't say Fitz, Finnigan's Wake is beyond me, however I do know that RAW used them in Masks. They're there from Joyce's "Another beer Albert; Ein stein Einstien?" through to the denoument. Basicly if you can't get them in Wake you're unlikely to spot them in Masks.

    Strange picture.

    IMHO it looks like reflected light through a rain coated window. In the high-res image it does really look like a human being curled in a foetal position. Naked person with a broken neck. :shock: The 'burn' could come from a high powerd halogen light off to the photographer's right. :shock...

    Game is an 18 Cert. played by a youngester who shouldn't have had access to it. Parents obviously didn't pay attention to what their son was playing and his other behaviour. Therefore I feel that the probable cause lies with them. Next. Oh I wish Judge Judy were handling the case...
