Here's an interesting post from the A day in the life of President Bush (photos): 8/6/02 thread

"Better yet, mow a CROP CIRCLE. Make it a "W" inside a huge heart. The news would definitely pick it up, especially since it coincides with that Mel Gibson crop circle movie :o)"

No, there's no wheat in Atlantis. But, the shrimp scampi is really good!

If anybody thinks this is just a load of crap, do a web search on the following..

Wave Matter Theory
Prince Louis de Broglie
Quantum Theory

[Raising my hand ...]
You know, a simple link would have been more than sufficient.

Seconded. I see no proofs on the accompanying post, just a baseless set of one sentence assertions. I note that SDAI labs so well funded that they can only afford to by hosted by Tripod, not have their own T-1 link. Maybe they spent all of their time and money on their spiffy graphics on their web page?

Simple self-aggrandizing. Please take your obviously priapistic self-image and do whatever is necessary offline to halt your continued march to destruction.

Simple self-aggrandizing.

And exactly how would you characterize your own comments?

Please take your obviously priapistic self-image and do whatever is necessary offline to halt your continued march to destruction.

Are you trying to say priapic self-image? You really should learn how to spell if you want to use big words in order to impress everyone. And you REALLY shouldn't use big words you don't know if you are attempting to aggrandize your own stature while belittling someone else.

So take your sapphist attitude somewhere else and get lost...

[FormerLurker]

Are saying that the material isn't valid?

[Aracelis]

LOL! Three of MY words to your mega-obnoxious posts constitutes self-aggrandizement of my part? ROFL!

And the word is "p-r-i-a-p-i-s-m". Get a good dictionary and look it up. The word fits you perfectly.

Free tip of the day: Get a REAL life, loser.

The following link is provided for all those interested in the meaning of the word "priapism". Warning, adult content:

Priapism

[FormerLurker]

And the word is "p-r-i-a-p-i-s-m". Get a good dictionary and look it up. The word fits you perfectly.

I believe pri·a·pe·an would be the adjective form of the word, although priapistic does appear to be used in medical terminology.

In any case Piltdown_Woman, are you trying to seduce me? You are shamelessly confessing your image of me as a Greek god with a phallus that won't quit...

The physical description of Priapus doesn't fit though. You might have me confused with someone else in that regard.

Please take your amorous musings offline, as this is a family orientated website.

[FormerLurker]

Oops. A transient brain to finger transference glitch occured in my last post to you. Either Piltdown_Woman had me all worked up, or I hadn't consumed enough Java yet..

That should have been;

The site is adjacent to a 5 story apartment complex. Right next to a very busy road. I went to the site to check it out and the site is an area constantly full of traffic no matter what time a day. There are hundreds of people in the large apartment complex who would see something by going outside on their balcony, looking out the window, or simply going out to their car. So it isn't a soybean field in the middle of nowhere. It is a soybean field smack dab in the middle of the 4th largest city in Illinois.

Fair enough. My theory is that bystanders ignored a couple of guys in a field. Your theory is that bystanders ignored a rather large alien spaceship, or whatever. I like my theory better.

If you observe my image in post# 656, I don't have the ass of a horse...

Ok, I checked it out, the first rule of web pages should be, MAKE THEM READABLE, nevertheless I read it. I'm at a loss as to why it's "sacred", is trig "sacred"? Is a rhombus "sacred" and an ellipse isn't? Is new math "sacred" while the old way is pure evil?

I liked this link:
http://www.luckymojo.com/nutcase.html or http://www.luckymojo.com to get the whole range of topics.

The second link you posted on the golden mean was an interesting, worthwhile read, too. What I want to know, how does this prove or disprove crop circles? I'm sure I could take the way my gardeners cut my lawn and twist and contort it into some pattern, what does it prove? Should I expect a visit from the saucer people?
