Sheesh. Apologies for Einstein's two Nobels, but no apologies for Chile, the dual nature of light, beauty, random evolution, Darwin's ideas, quantum observers, linear thinkers or any of the myriad of other things you've pontificated upon when a "quick check" would have shown you how wrong you are. You really should do those "quick checks" before you commit something to writing.

Ok.


That's starting to get annoying. Obviously neither of the twins is here to have a honest discussion.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

Flaunting your ignorance only makes you look more stupid.

Sweden was named after a people who lived in a cartain part of Scandinavia that later became part of Sweden. The area was called Svea Land. When Gothia and Svea and North became a kingdom (in Swedish: "rike" or "rige") they chose the name Svea Rike, or Sverige.

Actually, Rige with a 'g' is more contemporary Danish than Swedish, but back then... Who could say? Also, Swedish emigrants founded a nation to the east. The people who migrated there was called a name which bears a striking resemblance (actually, it's the same word!)to the Swedish word for "intoxication": "rus". The land was called Rus Land, to you known as Russia.
Facinating, isn't it?

Why do they run sock puppets, I wonder. It doesn't seem likely that the sock might say anything that it's creator can't. Ah well, no1goes....

My Client Mr. Nose (a.k.a. “The real no1nose”) has authorized me to make the following statement.

1. I would very much like to apologize to the people of the great and honorable nation of Sweden and in particular to Dr. Mabuse for not apprehending Sweden's non vegetative organs. I have updated all my notes and this mistake will not happen again. I read with great interest Dr. Mabuse' dissertation on the nation's true origins. I even did some independent study of my own and was surprised and delighted to learn of Sweden's geographical location.

And now a personal statement from Mr. Nose to everyone at SFN

2. Hi guys, I miss you. I have been under a lot of stress lately and am suffering from exhaustion. This is the reason for my inexplicable behavior on the forum. I really went off the rails. But I'm all better now and really want to get stuck in a back up some of those assertions. Let me back in and I promise that I will do just that. What do you say? Everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect. Give me another chance and you will see a real change for the better.
Sincerely No1

A contrite & repentant no1? That would be a refreshing change from the rest of the banees. Most either vanish less than mysteriously or run sock after futile sock in an attempt to, hell, I don't know what they're attempting. Well, we shall see.

Anybody gonna start a book on it? If so, gimmie some odds, one way or another.
