    Well, I looked through threads relating to this, but found nothing useful.  I sent an email to TW support, but have not received an answer for a week.  I reloaded WB again, but still have the same message.  I am using my M&B serial key without success.  I got the manual activation code in the...

    Experience vs. Brilliance

    "How was it even possible that transferring decisions from elites with more education, intellect, data, and power to ordinary people could lead consistently to demonstrably better results?

    Not Amused

    Maybe I'm just an old fuddy-duddy (OK, no maybe about it), but I did not find the "Pavlov Sexposed" drama amusing.  Neither would employers or school administrators if such a situation would occur for real.  Much of the "real world" takes a dim view of sexual harassment.  If I didn't know...

    Religious people more healthy?

    Why do I do it?  Why do I keep getting involved with religious threads on this forum?  Irrationality, or maybe a mental health issue?  Well... be that as is may, some research on how religious activity affects health, mental, social and physical.  Some of these are associated with religious...

    The Challenge

    OK, here’s the challenge.  For the next two weeks, actually READ the Bible (preferably New Testament, especially John and Romans if time limited) and PRAY that God will reveal Himself to you.  Pray, as in with an open mind and plenty of listening and not just talking.  The praying part is more...

    What minstrels?

    The Nature of Truth

    Let's cut right into the meat, shall we? (Sorry, vegetarians). What is the nature of truth?  Are there universal truths?  Can we discover them?  Is truth for one truth for all?  Is truth only what our perception makes it?  Is it dependent on conditions?  Assumptions? Several "laws" of...

    Personalized Stem Cells

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071120/ap_on_sc/stem_cells At last, another way to accomplish this noble goal.  It MAY be that our youngest people (see that other thread) can now do their cell divisions in private without fear of "harvesting."  Not all the bugs worked out yet, but there is reason...

    Game-related injuries

    Maybe I'm just getting old, but this game is causing me problems.  To wit: My left thumb is sore much of the time (WASD gives it nothing to do), especially if I'm trying to grip with the side of it. The tip of my right elbow is very sensitive (where I rest it on the table) - must get a pad for...
