Um, what? No see it couldn't, I wasn't banned. Mods around here must be softies. Back when I modded a board when we banned people they were gone.

Typical. Who the hell let you back in anyway?

Then you failed because your point got lost immediately in the sudden rush of "Wait, he didn't actually type out what I think he did... did he?" reaction. And I don't want to hear any griping about this being some PC cudgle taking away freedom of expression either. Excercise a little freedom...

Skimming through this thread I'm seeing comments like "biggum coup" and references to tomahawks, scalping and heaping peace pipes. You guys wanna dress up in red face and dance around patting your mouths going whoop-whoop-whoop too or can the thread proceed without the stereotypical bullshit...

Some guy talking crap about Bigfoot and Chewbacca on a podcast? There's NO app for that!

People who say that don't appreciate the instructive qualities of misery.

And........? Seriously, you're not making any sense, you're just stating the obvious and expecting me to be what? Impressed? Moved? Taken aback? China, Iran and Pakistan aren't free countries? DUH! I owe my freedom to the sacrifices of military personell? DUH! So therefore I should... what...

Again, I don't get it. What does this concept have to do with ANYTHING? Do you have a point to make or are you just dispensing glib dismissals so you can feel secretly smug?

Yeah, I don't really understand whatever the hell it was you were trying to say there so this response may be off target but here goes: China and the US are locked into an economic relationship that's not so much sybiotic as it is mutually parasitic. Neither one of them can do harm to the other...

Because the media need s boogeyman. The Russians don't qualify anymore and fundamentalist nutjobs apparently aren't enough, so here comes big bad China! OOOoooo! Scary! They don't look like you and their language sounds funny! Be afraid America, be very afraid!

If you mean Neanderthals then no. Current thinking is that while interbreeding would have certainly been possible they offspring would most likely have been sterile (like mules).

That's nearly 6 foot. If you're a 4' 6" Homo Sapiens that's pretty big...

The fossil record would disagree. Proto-humans were all small creatures, it's not until you get to more recent hominids where you find taller beings.

Interesting episode (my question got answered :D) but people are catagorically NOT getting shorter over time, quite the opposite. Go to europe, David. Go to the orient. Look at the older residential buildings. See how low the doors are built? I rest my case.

I find this claim highly dubious. Barring total exhaustion/impairment, I fail to see how ANYONE could do this given that aiplanes usually have altimeters as standard equipment and inersections are usually covered by street lights (not to mention populated by CARS!). However, assuming for the...

Peaceful empire.

"Observer" is such a waffling term, it implies an inherent factor of opinion and judgement. Let's try and stick to the quantifiable. Pilots (by necessity) have superior eyesight (espescially in the military). If we start from that simple fact, how can anyone claim that pilot "observations" are...

So much politics on the board lately... and I swore I'd stay out of it too... sigh... I just can't let this slide though: I absolutely agree, it's why we call them "extremists". However... So don't. Just be prepared for more 9/11s. Or not. Wait and see. It's their constitutionally...

Apparently we share the same birthday... Happy birthday to us!

If you're taking the word of Jaime Maussan, a man who once declared that every star in the sky was a UFO, then you should really reconsider your sourcing...
