the thing that dismays me the most about slashdot is that every time there is a story related to evolution, the creationists come out of the woodwork.

Where do you get these know-nothing troglodytes? Can't they just piss off and let the rest of us have an informative, interesting debate in which I might actually learn something.

I love reading about evolution, and I've aready been through Dawkins and Dennett. I'm really bummed that on slashdot, this debate can't ever get past kindergarten level due to perpetually debating these god-bothering twits. Teaching is fine and well, but why should I waste my time making enemies by beating the none-so-blind-as-those-who-will-not-see over the head with a cluestick. There'll just be a new crop next time. I've seen it happen.

It makes me seriously question the quality of person that is using this site. ..rant over

The final day has arrived. I now have 50 karma. What now? There is no higher to climb in the rankings. Oh well, I'll still post on what I think is true or when I need to vent.

Ironically enough this happened because I got a +5 for an "insightfull" comment that I thought was right, but judging by the responses, was dead wrong.

This current situation (real techies and geeks out of work in Europe) is very worrying, as I will be in the job market next month.
