Troll harder.

Sounds like the kind of thing a terrorist might say.

Philosophy is a social science and psychology isn't..? Ugh, whatever man. I don't know if you're trolling or what now, but in any case I don't see any purpose to this conversation.

I've never seen philosophy referred to as a social science, by anybody or any institution. Are you confusing it with psychology? In case I was being stupid I checked the Wiki article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_s… , but came up short. Experimental science uses observation as its exclusive method of…

Uh... no? Not by any common definition, and it isn't classified as such by academia - reputable universities, for instance. Science concerns itself with explaining and predicting observations of the universe. Philosophy may arguably concern itself to some extent with such questions, but its scope of inquiry is far…

"It's a joint venture between the USA and the French" = "it's being built by the USA".

"Old and dead"

Ignore my previous comment. I now understand that you're doing a hilarious parody of a pretentious, ignorant teenager. Great work.

Hofstadter was right to say that the pattern was mathematically interesting. It's not numerology at all, it's mathematics.

Totally ridiculous source, especially for making such an inflammatory statement.

I'm a huge fan of puzzles, but out of so many hours of playing Riven, I honestly can't have spent more than 10 minutes actually solving a well-designed puzzle. The rotating room was nice but easy, and the number system was... again, nice, I guess, but really easy. Aside from that, no novel thought was required, as far…

I mean... you have more top tier universities than would be expected from a developed country of your size.

"Mathematics is useless"

I know, right? You'd normally expect a country so far North to be warm. Due to its proximity to the sun.

Your question would be answered if you visited the website and read their sources.

Pros: it was education.

Yeah, sounds like a very vague, dubious statement. And there's no kind of source for it.

You also have some top universities. Disproportionate to your population, I think.

How about egoistical, myopic, parochial ignorance?

But they're multi-multi-millionaires.
