What works, works! The rest is crackpot non-sense; theories and
inspirations are the product of experience, unlike those little
fellers at the bottom of your garden! Empirical induction is a
regressive joke, hopefully known to the 130+. Whether anything is
'nonsense' or self-contradictory is a matter of logic, though - or
rather a matter of a self-consistent logic whose propositions are true
merely by definition, though subject to Goedel's incompleteness
theorem. Darwinians and cosmogenecists are on the same raft, and ahead
lie the falls! Sneering a priori comments, by the way, are neither
here nor there!

Well, why not give him a few hours on your PC?
Second suggestion, buy him 'Omnium' and
smart drinks!

  US ID Card payoff - no card? Hasta La Vista!

"Va. (AP) -- Prince William County [A large affluent suburb of DC]
police will begin enforcing a crackdown on illegal immigrants next
weekÂ…. The new policy directs police to check the immigration status
of anyone who is detained if the officer has probable cause to believe
the person is in the U.S. illegally. Lawyers are advising immigrants
to obey all laws and avoid any behavior that would attract police
attention, including public intoxication, driving with a broken tail
light, and pissing in the 7-11 parking lot."

About the only way to avoid 'probable cause' - if you have committed
the crime of DWH - (Driving While Hispanic) -- is to produce one of
the new Va. Driving licenses (conforming to the mandatory National
"Real ID" system). The latter are now being issued face-to-face with
no significant increase in the processing time .
That's one giant leap for white men, and a one-way Greyhound trip to
Nogales for an illlegal Hispanic family.
Nervous UK "No on ID" Nellies please note.

  The Beginning. The Big Bang

Instead of a soup of all different kinds of matter particles and light
waves all that is required is original neutrons. These free neutrons
decayed into protons electrons and neutrinos which became the first
hydrogen atoms.

The universe is Einstein's closed finite yet unbounded universe. Its
form is the surface of an hypersphere. Neutrons were formed on the
surface sometime in the very beginning.

  Why is the universe built on time differences?

Gravity moves things toward slow. The slow of slow time. Gravity is
time difference. Why was the universe built that way?

Why should it be that neutron stars should age differently than life
bearing planets that live in a kind of fastest standard time?

A.A. Rabi

Who ordered that?

  Response to David Howarth, Cambridge MP

(who is holding a policy conference)

The most important topic would be (a) getting illegals out of the UK,
and (b) cutting immig. from 3rd world countries.
The States of Ariz. and OK (& many localities also) have persuaded all
their illegals to get out overnight, with a National Database and
punishing employers. It floats. Why not Cambridge?
You are sticking Englishmen with enormous medical, education, welfare
costs for these people, and exposring us to diseases. Are you thinking
what I'm thinking? It seems not.

I am much more intelligent than our dogs. I have a very meaningful
relationship with them. I growl and they roll on their backs and spread
their legs...

Hear hear! More than forty years of it. And our difference is more like
forty points.
