I loved it, I thought its core messages was about how religion can be used to control people and that control, in the wrong hands, can be dangerous. The book didn't hold any power, more that it was a symbol. It was just an object that could be exploited to control people and gain power through...
So, I was doing some Project Euler.
I got the solution via my program but it took about 2 hours to run since it was a brute force solution.
However, once you solve the problem you can access the thread for that problem and see other people solutions. There solutions were dead simple but I...

Any LoR'ers going to go along ?

Sigh.
My third PS3 died tonight. Can't believe how unreliable I have found them to be.
First 2 were replaced under warranty, but this one is out of warranty so I'm going to have stump up ,£250 to buy a new one because Sony seems to have made their units out of snot and tissue.
It's kind of depressing, people have a way to ask an expert in the field some pretty interesting questions and it seems he gets nothing but planet x and conspiracy nonsense.
What a waste.
This made me lol though:
Excellent.
I quite like the grafitti shots.
I also really like your shot of the path leading down to the lake.

I know, it's mostly cars but there are some non-car shots.
Derren Brown may not claim to have mystical / supernatural powers, but he certainly claims to be able to use psychology and read body language and a whole host of other pseudo-scientific nonsense.
I genuinely believe that 90%+ of the people who are Derren Brown fans do not believe that what he...
BUT with their own introduction. They are going to be distributing 50,000 copies to students at Universities in the US.
I've read there introduction and it's largely the same old creationist rubbish.
Did anyone see tonight's effort ?
I didn't see it.
But from what I hear on msn from a friend, he made people who watched it get stuck to their seat by showing them a subliminal video so they wouldn't be able to stand up, they would be stuck to their sofa.
Apparently though he said it doesn't...
Is their anyway to change the general colour scheme of the site on an individual user basis. I find it quite hard to read with it being this blue. Messes with my eyes, especially when flicking back to another page with a light colour background.
Or is it just me :(
Did anyone see Derrens Brown explanation of how he 'predicted' the lottery ?
It was quite disappionting, I wasn't expecting a masked magician style reveal but to spend an hour talking about things such as automatic writing, wisdom of crowds, collective pyschic abilities, 'deep math' (whatever...
