    1. I'm more right wing than I thought I was.

    2.Debates on the US civil war are the most bizarre going.

    3.Otherwise intelligent people believe in creationism.

    4. Even euros and americans agree that democracy is still the best form of government.

    5. Libertarians are weird.(although apparently sincere)
    Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

          I also think I am reaching a transcendence in knowledge since posting here...it relates to the interconnection between Canadians and Finns

            I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

              I learned that creating a thread on the nonsense about pet sloths will get your thread closed.

                I'd rephrase that....

                  I learned that I really leave the "y" off of "they" far to often for me to make any sense... And sometimes I accidently omit whole words!

                  I also learned that while Texan's no longer hang people anymore, it is still a surprisingly popular idea

                      1. (Added as edit) Lots of Civ2 techniques that I otherwise would have to have learned the hard way.

                      2. Proper online forum manners.

                      3. How to use them -- selectively!!

                      4. vB code

                      5. That emoticons can be fun and useful communications tools!!

                      6. That my advanced age does not invalidate long-held beliefs.

                      7. That there are some interesting ideas out there that I hadn't considered.

                      8. Why Ming and rah waste so much time here...

                        Oh, come on. I find it hard to believe that you wre intolerant of other races before you came here. Don't give these turkeys any credit for what you already had.

                          I had less tolerance in that I was quick to formulate opinions based on race... before I came here. Though, my wife was helping me with that too.
