I think evolutionary change is being stifled by both medicine and civilization. Reproductive "success" is not genetic anymore, its based on social factors. The goal of most humans is no longer to spawn the most progeny.

I come from a small backwoods town and women in these areas (e.g. low income, low education) have more children, and have them at a younger age. ( This is a generalization, no anecdotes please. And no I don't feel like looking up stats, maybe someone else can post some).

Also, regardless of the details, I hope TFA is wrong. Have you seen dwarven females?

I think cattle are kept in individual pens just large enough for them to fit in, they can't even turn around. I don't think they can get into much trouble.

I could be wrong about this , I just saw it in a documentary.

Or they can be complete bullshit.

Seconded.

My credit report with one of the agencies has my name as ... Jr. That's my father ( I'm III). No problem, except I CAN'T change it. I can change other data, phone, address, etc. But the wrong name is permanently attached to my SSN. It specifically states in their FAQ that you cannot change the name on the account for any reason.

I also had unpaid collections that I somehow obtained when I was 15. So they were on there rotting my score for years.

Thats bullshit. Yer doin it wrong. There is nothing magical about the metabolic process. More calories will add more weight if you don't burn them.

What kind of miracle solution do you want? Its easy...

For a given workday, after N hours work and M hours sleep, is anything left? if yes, make the decision to work out or to fuck off. If not, then wait for your days off and work out hard. Also decrease caloric intake.

There is no other solution (aside from changing work schedule).

bring greater parity between a user's movements and the animations

You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means.

The game was definitely 'artsy' in the writing and music. It was also artsy insofar as the gameplay was a very unique puzzle game, and it was VERY fun.

You could run right through the poetic text blurbs between levels and not read them at all, and still enjoy the game.

standard. I've received spam texts from about 3 sources, several per day from each, since the first day I got my phone/number.

I think its possible to call verizon (fun), and have them blacklisted for me but from what I've heard its not even free to do so (even if it is, the customer services call probably takes 30 mins).

If I didn't have an unlimited text plan, every spam msg would cost me. For those without such aplan, the ability block a source *from the phone* is necessary.
