Okay, my turn to geek out... This question answers itself - clearly the egg came first. The question is NOT Which came first the chicken or the chicken egg, but Which came first, the chicken or the egg.

Re: Friday Humor - Questions that have Confused humankind!!
Well, looking at it from an evolutionary viewpoint, the Egg. The reason is that the Chicken as we know it today is a descendant of a less-evolved bird we'll call a protochicken. Now, since we have to assume that a given life form cannot change its genetic code any more than a leopard can change its spots we can say the protochicken and today's chicken are not the same genetically but it is possible for evolution to cause a subtle change in the next generation's genetic makeup to adjust for the forces that affect a life form's viability in a given environment. Thus, the first chicken came from the egg of a protochicken. Another chicken joke: A while back there was a major fire at a chicken factory (a large, sometimes multi-level building that houses chickens on a chicken farm) and the fire completely destroyed the building. Over 50,000 chickens died in the fire. Somehow, a single chicken was found to have survived the fire. It was discovered on the other side of the road, watching the fire. When approached by a reporter it said, See? THAT'S why! J.T.

Re: Friday Humor - Questions that have Confused humankind!!
I too have too much time on my hands, so since nobody is asking, Which came first the chicken or the CHICKEN egg I'll try to answer it anyway. If you believe in a literal creation, then God said Let there be a chicken and behold, there was one. The egg came later. But according to evolution, there was a long transition period before a creature that was almost a chicken laid an egg, out of which hatched the first real chicken. Which leads a new question: Was that egg a chicken egg because a chicken hatched out of it, or a not-quite-a-chicken egg because a not-quite-a-chicken laid it?

Should we change the Subject line to Friday Philosophy? If you are standing at the geographic North Pole then the compass would point to the magnetic North Pole which isn't exactly the same thing :-). Since every place on the globe is south of the north pole I would guess that the compass would point to south in any direction you faced if you were standing on the magnetic north pole. Which brings up the question: The North Pole is one place on a globe where you can walk one mile south, one mile east and one mile north and return to your point of origin. Name another. J.T.

That's more or less what I meant.. Isn't East or West, relative to the direction you are facing when you are standing dead on, on the North Pole or South Pole? As a rule we know when we are facing North, behind us is South, to the right is East and to the left is our West..

Re: Friday Humor - Questions that have Confused humankind!!
If you go buy a high end toaster (yes, there is such a thing - they can cost hundreds of dollars) - they will instruct you in the proper method of making toast. You are to first run a wam up cycle of the toaster on the high heat setting. You are then supposed to dial the heat down to your preferred toasted-bread setting and proceed to make toast. This insures even crispness and toasting since the toaster is not heating up at the same time as toasting your bread. (Toasting by the way is the breakdown of complex bread starches into simple sugars which then caramelize - hence the slightly sweet taste of un-buttered toast). I suppose if you're willing to spend hundreds of dollars on a toaster you probably have the free time to do this.

Re: Friday Humor - Questions that have Confused humankind!!
Its quantum physics. The act of measuring the egg (a chicken pops out), changes the reality. Its also a question of possession. Before the egg hatched it belonged to the proto-chicken. Afterward, does the remaining shell still belong to the protochicken or does it now belong to the chicken that came out of it? I really hope God didn't use a batch process for creation: Let there be a chicken. Let there be a camel. Let there be a plasmodium falciparum. and so on... Of course, maybe that's how we ended up with a platypus. God just ran out of ideas. :-) Thad Esser Remedy Developer Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours.-- Richard Bach Dwayne Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) arslist@ARSLIST.ORG 12/07/2007 10:52 AM Please respond to arslist@ARSLIST.ORG To arslist@ARSLIST.ORG cc Subject Re: Friday Humor - Questions that have Confused humankind!! I too have too much time on my hands, so since nobody is asking, Which came first the chicken or the CHICKEN egg I'll try to answer it anyway. If you believe in a literal creation, then God said Let there be a chicken and behold, there was one. The egg came later.
