Impressive. By age six, he could multiply two eight-digit numbers in his head!? I certainly can't do that today and I would venture to guess that very few adults are able to do so. And yet the name, vonNeumann is not bandied about as is Einstein. I agree with you that his contributions are more relevant to our world today. Thank you for this enlightening link :)

A lovely post to remind us of the kindness shown by the people of Gander, Nightingale. In the midst of recounting the tragedies of that day, it is nice to recall that there was good to come out of an otherwise horrendous situation. I, too, have been watching 9/11 anniversary coverage :)

I had to chuckle at the wording in the beginning of the article: Rather than correctly saying that they announced from the White House lawn that scientists had mapped the entire human genome, it was worded thusly: Scientists announced they had mapped the final human genome sequencing from the White House lawn. As though the lawn had contained it all along. D&D gets the award for clever comm

One thing,among many, I admired when reading Darwin's books is that he was always quick to point out and praise, his contemporaries' works.

And yet gambling is illegal in Utah! I actually wanted to place an online bet on a Kentucky Derby horse but when I entered my info, the website gave me the message "We're sorry. Your state does not allow online gambling". As though that could cause harm?

Good one, caffiend!! Personally, I find Salviati's posts insulting. The implication that those reading them are too insufferably ignorant to be able to differentiate between a quote and his opinions by his need to point out his RESPONSE:

moremany, my daughter actually thought about giving them a call on the phone but then decided against it. I had to agree with her that it would likely be fruitless.

Congratulations! The pain,or lack thereof, of certain injections has more to do with the person administering said injection than with the contents of the syringe. There are a few exceptions, however. I was a nurse and we had a patient who needed injections of vitamin k. Because the liquid was somewhat more viscous than the average injection solution, the plunger of the syringe needed to be de

Just to thank you for your post to hujo regarding the use of apostrophes. Unnecessary apostrophe use is one of my biggest pet peeves :) There is a business located in my area that both my daughter and myself get annoyed about when seeing their vehicles with the name emblazoned: Red Rock Spa's.
