The results could not be reproduced. Subsequently the research was shown to be flawed and fraudulent. please, tell anyone who claims this to go do some reading and that its completely wrong Are you saying that the claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is wrong, or the other way around? And if I'm not mistaken, the definition of Autism was changed fairly recently (as in about 10 years ago or so) to include even less severe form of autism. And since Autism usually shows it first signs around the times you start getting your first vaccines, some doctor came up with the "fact" that vaccines cause autism. | ||

In a related note, Artosis said a few days ago that Elephants are not actually afraid of mice. Mythbusters prove that indeed they are [or at the very least will go out of their way to aviod them]. | ||

I yelled to duck and it was like the matrix for old people, wooshed over her head, but didn't try to attack again. Stay away from dem geese! | ||

In fact the Эльбрус or Mount Elbrus with 5,642m in the Caucasus is it's highest mountain. The mistake is probably so common because most people don't even know the European borders. I know really, the east coast of the black sea just SCREAMS Europe. Who decreed these "official" borders for Europe? Was it the EU? They're the supreme authority over everything after all, even god bows to them. If they said it, it must be true. | ||

Also contrary to what air hostesses frequently informed me when I was a lad there is no way for a Gameboy to mess with the planes navigation system.

Theres not really borders for Europe, it's kind of a concept with historical and cultural basis. I don't think of Europe when I think of the Caucasus. I'm concerned about his mindset, and the high horse he rides over all the ignorant people that don't know the borders of Europe. Not the Mountain. | ||

Geese in gaggles or skeins are nasty critters, but they're neither as rare nor beautiful as swans, so I'd figured the next time they tried to waggle in on me, I'd kick one, then see what the rest does. Never had any problems with them since I decided that, it's all about confidence  Another one: Spelling has something to with or is equal to language. It is not. It's a cultural thing, which acquires some parallel connections in the brain. Every time someone starts whining to me about how people can't spell any more and ERGO the/their language is devolving, I've got to explain it again and often-times JUST WONT ACCEPT IT THE BASTARDS! Don't whine to me because I study languages, and if you do, at least have the common courtesy to stfu and obey my authority! The worst kind will, when confronted with languages which lack a written form, say they're dialects. MAY THEY SUFFER! | ||

Philo Farnsworth did not invent the television. The first television transmission was made in 1925 by Scottish inventor John Logie Baird[240] using an electromechanical system. Farnsworth did transmit the first live human images in 1928,[241] and was pioneering in the development of all-electronic television. I thought everyone knew JLB invented the TV? It's pretty common knowledge in Scotland anyway | ||
