I think some useful comparisons might be found by looking at schizophrenia. But keep in mind I am neither a physician (or mental health...

Well, I should hope not, Apollo 11 landed about fifty years BEFORE Chang’E... ;-)

It would have been utterly astonishing if the lunar surface wasn’t somewhat radioactive. The Earth’s surface is radioactive, after all, to a varying...

So putting aside that there's no clear definition of psychopath to measure that claim against... assuming you're right and positions of authority and...

According to the wikipedia article, typically 69% of copper is 63Cu and 31% is 65Cu. Your link (with no explanation of what exactly is sampled)...

Lord Foul First, welcome to CQ. Second, what exactly are you contending? If this radioactivity was newly discovered by Chang'E-4, then NASA...

Frankly, I'm most likely to notice Phil's shorts when it's cold out because I'm thinking, "Good Lord, man, put some pants on!" Then again, if you're...

Watching Dr. Fauci talk about the J&J vaccine; it must be nice to him to have the freedom to call anything a crazy conspiracy theory.

I'm hoping that all of you who can be standing over things and not see them at least understand the concept of "another person is pointing at it."

Well, yeah, it wouldn't be a joke if you didn't.

I'm interested, that's all.

I dunno. I'm not going to try to guess at what's going on in other people's heads.

Humans are primates, though we're the sort of relations who get banned from family reunions.

Selective perception is not solely the province of D.O.M.s! It's human nature.

Scientists argue about it all the time!

I'm saying the paradox itself is a based on logical fallacy; I'm not ascribing personal motives to anyone.

If anything, I watch more fantasy and what passes for science fiction on TV than any other genres, and I don’t require deep accuracy (however that...

That sounds, uh, totally radical! (Maybe more 90s?)

Very true, but I thought it close enough for amusement.

I am probably way too amused by a speaker named Gibbons at a meeting of anthropologists. :D

Same with my mother.

Disappeared? We have no evidence they were ever there.

Which speaks more to the nature of human imagination and our penchant for logical fallacy than any innate merits of the paradox. Not at all....

Who would be in charge of deciding how people should think? If humanity had the capacity to direct thoughts in such specific ways I think the most...

My Dad is still in that stage!

While not as dramatic a change as promised, I think in terms of American spaceflight the space shuttle really was quite a stark change, it made types...

I watch the same show and hadn't thought they were particularly titillating. It was a bunch of women wearing their work clothes, and yes, they're...

I mean, you remember my kids' names, so that's something?

Min caught a fly yesterday, mostly. (I had to help.)
