hahahaha. nice. reminds me of a fave limerick:
little Tommy took a drink
but he will drink no more
for what he thought was H2O
was H2SO4
I used to do this demonstration with my chem classes:

Really brings home the point, just cause it LOOKS like water, doesn't mean it IS water. It really is scary how many kids will just walk up and try to touch or taste something out of a beaker because the THINK they know what it is......
They're probably like me-- a little too trusting.
A couple of weeks ago my boss handed me something and said "eat this and tell me if you can tell what's in it-- it's something weird." I didn't even hesitate. As I was chewing I thought "this probably isn't a good way to be."
It was chocolate with bacon in it.
Hey from an evolutionary standpoint, being willing to try new things can be advantageous..... or very much not so..... looks like it worked well for you, this time.
if you have a whole tribe of Homo erectus people, and they find a new kind of berry or fungus and don't know if it's safe to eat, ..... one of them who's the most adventurous/impulsive/trusting tries it first, then if he drops dead the others don't eat it and the group survives
therefore this trait remains in the population in spite of it's potential detriment to the individual, because it increases the population's chance of survival
Also, with social interaction and game theory, if the individual does survive, they could potentially reap social benefits, and if they don't survive, they have at least increase the likelihood of survival for family members who carry at least some of the same genes.
yes that's true too. so all in all a good trait to have in a population0 -
I'm thinking OP parsed something through a gobbledegook generator.
Lets see if we can't translate it back to regular English?I was hoping to gauge a response from those of you that find an analytical approach to a dietician’s analysis of prearranged phosphorous intake to be conducive to the actual dietary needs for most people.Specifically in regard to overincumbence of the minerals that relate to regular release function.After receiving a review from a professional and analyzing the input given i can't seem to grasp the approach as it was mentioned to me.I just struggle with straying from what has always been commonplace amongst what was always my understanding of the matter.Does anyone here have any background information or experience that would lend to this type of dietary regimen?I welcome any feedback especially any information conducive to aid in the overall understanding of such a wide ranging and changing topic.Thanks.
^This = Awesome. I believe you are the intelligent one.0 -
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that some of the equations on the board behind the cat are fraught with error. It could be that the school is trying to preserve academic integrity by blocking it. As for Jack Sparrow, well.....Johnny Depp is effing adorable amirite?
But what does milk squared equal? I NEED TO KNOW!
Seriously? Bro, do you even dairy math? Milk squared = cheese. Milk cubed = cottage cheese. Milk/0 = out-of-date yogurt (that I'm probably gonna still eat anyway because who the hell has time to drive all the way to the store for just yogurt. amirite?)
:laugh:
As it turns out, I do not even math. Not even a little.
Also I have missed you, despite the goofy mustache.0 -

I find the irony of asking for any intelligent people followed by no less than 6 question marks rather hilarious.0

Too broad. You can't define dietary needs for "most people" without differentiating age, gender, and normal dietary stratification of data. You can find all kinds of research within each subset of those categories, but not an aggregate conclusive analysis.It is also important to understand your goal for prearranged phosphorus intake, which varies depending on conditions, not the least of which is levels of proteins, nitrogen, or even caffeine relating to calcium balance.
There is a lot of study of this with the new fad of high protein diets, but I haven't read anything conclusive.0 -

Seems like a good answer.0 -
Well, I have a Masters Degree in English and I have read and evaluated a lot of writing in my career. The ability to communicate a clear message is the most important feature of writing. The OP missed the mark there.0

This, big time. It's not the vocabulary we struggled with, Sir, but the sheer overuse of words. Here's one for you - Pleonastic0 -

my favourite long word is Sahelanthropus tchadensis - yeah I know that's two words but it's a binomial name so I can play fast and loose with the word counting on that one.0 -

This is a superlative but inconsequential dubiety. Withal, the loquacious composition of your embryonic articulation is insufficient in components to commence a symposium.

Exactly. It was easy to understand what he said, but he said it like a pretentious douche.0
