Re: [Vo]:The Susslick controversey

The work of Taleyarkhan has no relationship to cold fusion or LENR. He is trying to cause hot fusion in a collapsing bubble and claiming success using neutron detection. LENR occurs in a solid and does not emit neutrons Ed. thomas malloy wrote: Steven Krivit investigated the Taleyarkhan cont

Re: [Vo]:OT: Are humans evolving faster?

There are exquisitely beautiful cave paintings in France, dating back about 15000 years. There are even more exquisite paintings - again in caves in France - dating back 35000 years. Does this indicate that perhaps there were wonderfully cultured people over 35000 years ago, and that that cultur

RE: [Vo]: OT: Poetic "N" Justice

Agreed. Also salient is the reality that different groups within 'racial' categories seem to exhibit quite different general levels of societal 'intelligence'. Having said that, we are left with the task of developing a metric of societal intelligence, and then assessing the actual performance of d

Re: [Vo]: OT: Poetic "N" Justice

As usual, the debate about which race is smarter misses the important issue. The so called "smarts" of humans is made of different features. Some people are smart at music, others are good at math, some are poor spellers but can write well. In other words, we each have many ways we are smart an

It is obvious as well as inevitable from my perspective that all the races will eventually intermix, most likely leaving the planetary population with a dominance of Eurasian features.
