    But such a freak who attempts that kind of act deserves my respect more than the juggler on the corner that uses his hands to juggle apples.

      See? Now that's old-school. You just don't see such blatant attempts to make stuff up these days.

        Tastes differ. Personally speakiing I'd tell him to get a proper job and call a doctor in advance. Not a mathematician.

          I'd call a mathematician to calculate the odds that he'd cut his dick off. Such a person should not be in the gene pool, and I'd like to make money off of him by gambling.

            Why is mathematics superior? Because thats what the polytoners here study

                  Would you really want to lose one? If you really wouldn't want to lose one, and this is just theory, how could you rank them at all?

                      It depends.

                      Are they studying to be your typical GP / ER Doc (not rigorously academic) or are they performing research?

                      The latter could quality, the former should not.

                          History = Physics?

                          KH, what is happening to the world?

                              Given that virtually none of you understand any physics at all, I'm not surprised at the voting results.
