Still, you have to wonder if they use contraception. I'm led to believe that giving birth is about as far from pleasurable as you can get... Superseded by one thing: renal colic--so look after those kidneys! That is why the elves are a dying race; they just don't breed fast enough or in enough numbe...

Congrats Rammie! That's a good mix of kids.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I recall that for elves 'coming of age' is around 100 years old (or 200?) and by this time, if not earlier, they begin to attain their aura of agelessness (as they age slower than humans). So in short, there are definitely children around, but they aren't conside...

Hi ryank that was just a bot, or In Character, it was a stray Bretonnian peasant (now deleted/deceased). Haven't played with my Woodies for a long time and even then I went for an all-Asrai list. QuMu's covered most that I can remember. I reckon you shouldn't take EG since they can be a points sink ...

Thanks for heads-up. It's been deleted and the user has been removed. Thanks to the member who used the "Report" button as well.

There's something about cannibalism that raises the hair on my back and it's got nothing to do with morals. This kind of thing is instinct. There are certain things that people find horrifying unless they have been conditioned. Other humans are too similar to each other--I'd feel like I'd be eating ...

I got a General Error about 10 hours ago, if that's the same as an SQL error.

Not that I am able to diagnose you or anything, but can I ask where you feel the pain and what it feels like? Have they tried to take a sample culture of the material in your sinuses? If it is an infection, they can send it back to the lab and analyse it. The only downside is that it's a little inva...

What age are you defining 'children' as? If you put them in groups, there's the peer pressure problem (children would be more susceptible to self-image) and who's to assess whether political 'education' has been adequate? Also there could be confidentiality issues as assessing political knowledge si...

I don't have much to offer (I'm sure the heavy weights will chime in later with plenty of refreshing ideas), but I do believe that there should be a minimum age for voting, simply because many children below the age of 11 will not have completely developed their cognitive function. The minimum age a...

Wow, well I hope it doesn't come down to surgery, but if it does, hope that goes well too.

Hey AMA, sorry to hear that it's been going on for a while. If you don't mind saying, which sinus is it in? (It'd be good revision) Hope they diagnose the underlying cause!

So basically people think more highly of him because he's not white? One of the other candidates was the Zimbabwean PM Morgan Tsvangirai. Obama has potential through his talk and ideas, but unlike the runners-up has yet to get his hands dirty yet. As most people seem to disagree with the award, may...

Apart from being a Mod, I'd probably be at the level of the Guest Poster.

Also, if you're really interested in forum types, here's a fairly long list of characters: http://redwing.hutman.net/~mreed/index.htm

Might be psychological, but I find meat provides more sustenance than veggies. Would you eat a dolphin? Or a chimpanzee? So why would you eat a pig? I come from an Asian background, so I'm pretty sure there's something like that in our repertoire of dishes. The Chinese are to chicken feet as the Fre...

For those who have already gotten their results back, this may shed new light on your personalities.

The more I do one of these, the more confused I get about which one I could be. A few of them sound a bit like me, I mainly get some interchange between E and I, T and F, but also J and P sometimes. I guess, like all categorisations, there's always some cross-over. Or I could just be unbalanced. You...

Life is not something that begins when the neurons start firing, or the heart starts pumping. Life, biologically, is "the condition that distinguishes organisms from inorganic objects and dead organisms, being manifested by growth through metabolism, reproduction, and the power of adaptation t...

I meant men shouldn't form policy. Certainly a man directly affected by the decision (helped create it) should have a say. So you're saying that only women should form policy when it comes to abortion? How exactly would a woman know better than a man when it comes to abortion policy? I honestly don...

Wow, three years already? Happy birthday!

Are you sure? Australia was founded as a convict colony and as a nation, it may be competitive at sports, but they don't sanction the death penalty and have a lower rate of crime than the US. Also, it's a lot more violent beyond the US, as indicated by this site that I Googled . I personally don't s...

I believe different genetics results in modified spread and change in cell structure and function.

I was merely implying that we do it again - there's enough land left, right? Or perhaps we could send them to the Sahara in Africa? We have gaping desert in the middle of our country, but oops, it's occupied by the indigenous natives or stockpiles of uranium waste. I don't think the Aborigines will...

What happens when medical technology allows a fetus to be extracted and develop in vitro after the 20th week, 16th week, 1st week, 1st day? I don't quite understand what you'd be getting at, AMA. If development in vitro is comparable to development in vivo then it simply bypasses any ovarian, tubal...

Parmesan, brie or camembert--preferably by itself. Not really sure what else is out there, but 'plastic' cheese definitely comes last. There's this other type I hated but can't recall. It contained big bits of black stuff (pepper?) and was really sour and bitter. It might have been off, but my stoma...
