    "Did the dinosaurs comprehend the impending comet?"

    Ha! This could have been one of mine...since my son has about 75 books about dinosaurs scattered all over the house.

    Not page 30 as that had images not words, so I picked a random page instead:

    "would discover I could make
    intelligent choices.
    Instead, I sat in a chair all day
    and wasn't allowed to play"

    From "Beneath the Surface, Creative Expressions of Augmented Communicators"

    Which fricking book do I grab?! o-o ah. To my left, Social and Political Philosophy. lol.

    Aw. Kind of expected to be a paragraph long sentence. lol!

    "And what manner of government do you term oligarchy?"

    The book to my right... Utilitarianism!

    "But in order that the exception may not extend itself beyond the need, and may have the least possible effect in weakening reliance on veracity, it ought to be recognized and, if possible, its limits defined; and, if the principle of utility is good for anything, it must be good for weighing these conflicting utilities against one another and marking out the region within which one or the other preponderates."

    .... Now that's more like it. Everybody, the tidings of philosopher John Stuart Mill!

    ....I think this may prove that theory of him possibly dying a virgin.... o-0 heheh. :P

    Good morning peeps! Glad to see this one is still going. :smile:

    Well, since I already did an entry from the nearest book to me at my desk, I've grabbed the 2nd nearest:

    "The uptake of metals and nitrogen compounds by plants and the release of oxygen has a significant effect on the overall water quality of the aquarium."

    One of my hobbies is freshwater aquariums with live plants. :laugh:

    He started work as a bartender at the Savoy Hotel, London, in 1925, and compiled "The Savoy Cocktail Book" (1930), in which he admonished bartenders, "Shake the shaker as hard as you can: don't just rock it: you are trying to wake it up, not send it to sleep!"
