Good idea. So many threads and comment sections of AOL and MSN stories have turned to religion. I'v seen frozen baby mammoth comments turn into hellish (that might imply religion to some people. Sorry. I use it in the meaning " Chaotic and Hateful".) religion comment wars. It's best if everyone just lets the discussion die, and then talk about the technical aspect, or the well preserved dead baby mammoth. And with the dead baby mammoth, people went on and on about people cloning it, when the story said specificly that the cells had burst, and they couldn't clone it. Some people can't read. The world is filled with three kinds of people. Those who can count, and those who can't. 9/8 of the world's population has trouble with fractions. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
