  I have spent too much time on here over the Xmas hols, thanks mainly to our rotten UK weather.

  I am back at work tomorrow, where I can at least talk with other science grads who actually understand how the world works, and where I can have intelligent conversations about cosmetic ingredients. Yes cosmetic ingredients! I know that what I do is not making an enormous difference (except for eczema sufferers), but trying to debate stupidity on here over the last 3 weeks has been totally fruitless and frustrating. I need a break.

  I logged out, but had to log back into say: "I wonder what it's like to be so far over my head." A quote from Neil Young in the song Last Trip To Tulsa.

  You're going to be popular.

  The secret is realizing debating people isn't for their benefit. They don't want to learn. It's to keep a balanced view.

  I remember many a JW saying the same thing. Next you'll be talking about "drilling a hole in their heads to pour in the 'truth'." You're not a JW anymore. People don't have to believe or not believe as you do or don't.

  No, FHN, they don't, but it is bit silly when people argue that things aren't true while simulataneoulsy getting all the benefits of those things they ignornatly decry.

  A New Year and a new me!!!

  I'm leaving and I won't be back until I have ripped abs ( the 8 minute kind) and can do 50 pushups, just like I did in Army boot camp

  It can get frustrating sometimes, especially when people jump between arguments. I think its partly to do with the medium, i had the oppertunity to talk with a published creationist the other day and it was actually quite nice and rewarding.
