Really? You think 6 million Jews didn't have a fair number of rocket scientists amongst them? Judging by the number of Jewish Nobel Prize winners, I think we could easily have been on Mars by now, if not other galaxies.

How does one want to study that (seriously, I am curious)?


I want to study it because I find the organization and how the cell works very interesting. My particular field of study is cell biology, but I might switch to cell biology and biochemistry. I find it really cool how everything works like you think it should. I am a big math geek though, so Chemistry is also a favourite of mine. I want to study it, as well, because I'd like to go to medical/dental school.

Oh, and PM me on Rogue for those cards. PMs here don't work with me.


I drive one of either a 2002 Subaru Outback or a 2006 Subaru Outback, whichever my parents aren't using at the time. If I didn't have access, I'd drive some beater to get to and from Magic events. I've figured that I could sell my cards and invest in a Challenger, but I like playing Magic more.

I'll PM you on Rogue with my cell number.

How much do you love Hockey?
What is your favorite Hockey:

-Player?
-Moment?

Will the staff at Air Canada ever be happy?


I love hockey enough to watch it if I have nothing else to do, or I'll watch the last 5 minutes to find out who won so I don't seem like a douche to all my friends. We have hockey on our money, ffs. But, I'm not a huge fan.

My favourite team is the Dallas Stars, even though I never watch them play, don't know anyone on the team, etc. It's from many years ago, I just thought the team was cool.

Favourite player would be I don't know? Least favourite is Roberto Luongo. Fire him immediately, please.

Favourite moment would have to be the 2002 Salt Lake City Olypmic win over the US since I got to watch it. I was working on the Olympics and the Stanley Cup final this past year.

Air Canada is really bitchy. I hope they get it resolved.

Yes, but I'd be interested to see where we're at.

But, it's quite possible, Ben, that without the drive/necessity of war, we may have just been durdling around and never actually ever had the drive to go to space until much later. I guess there's a ton of possibilities. I'm also interested the course of action if Hitler wasn't a complete psychotic idiot.

War is somewhat understandable, genocide is not. Maybe if he'd focused on the war and not his own personal biases, he'd maybe have gotten a bit further in conquering Europe (again, for what point?) than he had, and not had such harsh repercussions on the way down. Just seems like so many things could have gone so wrong for the West, but luckily, we got there, even at huge costs to mankind and society. And thank heavens, since V2 rockets with nuclear warheads would really suck.
