I grew up brown in the deep south, and I'd gladly relive every shitty moment of it than listen to another Whedon/Firefly fan drone on about the greatest representation of mediocrity and unoriginality that is a Whedon production.
Yeah, right there with ya (to an extent). I've watched every episode, and the movie, and it's an okay sci-fi show—it really is. Much better than 80% of all sci-fi out there, but it's a solid "C" on a grading scale, a 3 out of 5, etc. I think the love is more for what Joss had done before, not what he did with this,…

Computer: end program.
How can there be any answer besides Immortality? Then all the inventions will be within our lifetimes.
Renewable energy becoming so cheap and abundant we HAVE to move away from fossil fuels.
Not sure if this counts as an invention per se, but replacement organs from cloned tissue. Would help a huge amount of people facing organ failure/replacement issues.
Is that a Kenmore or a Whirlpool?
When I retired from the military and went into the civilian workforce, I went for a big change in type of responsibility when I accepted the registrar position at a local school. Sometimes the Academic Dean or the President would ask for specific reports or see how we could tweak data to report to the Board or outside…
Philosophy humor. So, Sartre is basically saying that there is a framework or machinery (for lack of a better word) that we do have simply because we exist. But our essence is totally fluid and anytime we begin to feel that we are stuck in one for or another, it a complete self-imposed illusion as our only tangible…
OK. Got it. Had to look up Ontology though. But I get the gist. Thanks for taking the time to spell that out.
