    but then maybe gender is a meme.

    We might be just a way for hormone molecules to get around and the various side affects that have on our bodies might be no more than side affects. It is an interesting idea, though I feel it might cause rugby club after-match functions to be a little more tense.
    I just want to say thanks for the links merc, you've given my brain something to gnaw on.

    I think it might be the power thing again. Men could not make people , yes their output was needed but if the seed fell on barren ground, well that was it. If you could subjugate the means of production (me showing off), you would have some power.

    I suppose now we would say that language is a meme?

    I wernt maken no Eusa connexion.

  • Hard News: Awful in more than one way,

    It is a central tenet of the diehard Bushies that the WMD's were smuggled out into Syria. Cunningly they were moved at night so the satelites bathing the area were turned off, or something.There is some ex-Iraqi military guy that is making a living out of speaking to these people and the redoubtable Stephen Hayes keeps the dream alive. It is a fascinating area of study.

    There's a part of Google that allows you to open your computer up to the whole freakin' universe. I put the work computer on it then checked it from home and got the shock of a lifetime! Took it off asap. It is very scary. Why anyone would do that is a mystery to me.
    I think the squirrel part of human nature, in terms of hoarding nuts, is a reasonable response.
