"Will Malthus continue to be wrong?"
My favorite question.
The answer, of course,is yes - as long as man continues to be free.
If the world is run the way liberals want it, the predictions of malthus will come true in a most unpleasant manner.

I'll start working on these now, I'll get back to you....

How come water is blue, yet snow is white?
To: From many - one.
#2 Why is everything in the last place I look?
because you'd be stupid to keep looking after you found it
To: Asphalt
And where did all that water come from anyway? It can't be easy to combine hydrogen and oxygen like that.
To: From many - one.
And when I lose something why do people say 'where did you leave it last?'
If I knew that, it wouldn't be lost.

top 25 unanswered questions Who says these are the top 25? And only 25? Something tells me we haven't even scratched the surface. A touch of politics? Indeed. A professed fascination with the laws of the cosmos with a peculiar lack of interest in the Source of all law. Like a blind man stumbling into the ditch while thinking he's nearly got the way figured out.

I think those are four good questions but I would have put the question about whether we are alone in the universe and the one about the Grand Unified Theory first and second.
I'm sure you know there is always a political side to anything involving three or more people.

This is going to require large quantities of beer before I reach any conclusions. If you do as I do and use Jim Beam, the quantity is very much reduced.
