        quota accomplished. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 08:50 2
        
        Yeah, somedays it is difficult to award them. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:57 1

I thought it was interesting when someone asked Fallwell or Robertson if they remembered when they chose to be straight and they said yes - Reagen Oct 20, 08:38 8

- I just don't understand why nobody hands him the scientific authority when he always responds "show me the evidence". - pmb Oct 20, 08:42 10
  - because they want to have him back as a guest/source at some point in the future. -- nm - znufrii Oct 20, 08:48
  - liberals are such pussies in general about this. call them out! I mean, just call them out!! -- nm - amanda jones Oct 20, 08:46
  - [deleted] 6
    - And then of course there's this: Why does it matter whether it's a choice or not. It really shouldn't matter one way or the other when it comes to - pmb Oct 20, 08:50 4
      - especially when we discourage discrimination based on something that is explictly a choice (religion) -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 08:52

  - Here -- (link) - mara Oct 20, 08:45 1
    - Cool thanks, I should try to find the time to read this -- nm - Guigue Oct 20, 08:46
  - There are studies that show brain differences. I don't know that it's specifically to the point of proof that it's inborn - Reagen Oct 20, 08:43
  - [deleted] 1
    - Heh, you guys don't know me so well so I'm very careful when I get into debates like this! :) - Guigue Oct 20, 08:47
  - "Scientific proof" is kind of elusive here. What's our proof that heterosexuality is not a choice? -- nm - mara Oct 20, 08:42 1
    - The Bible, silly. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:44
  - Sure, John Barrowman did a documentary on it a couple of years back. -- nm - LMS Oct 20, 08:42
  - you mean other than the Lady Gaga song? -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 08:42 7

      - science is best with a catchy beat. -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 08:45 4
        
        It's a rigorous, peer-reviewed double-blindstudy that's easy to dance to! -- nm - mara Oct 20, 08:46 3
        
        did someone say Double Blind? - loosibery Oct 20, 08:47
        
        of course, it heavily plagiarizes Madonna's earlier research, but never mind that. -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 08:47 1
        
        Well she was the leading scientist of her time in this arena -- nm - Epiphany Oct 20, 08:50
- in retrospect, perhaps Piers Morgan was a poor choice to carry the weight of scientific orthodoxy on sexual issues. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 08:39
rubber duckie was the guy who left our Alliance after Melinda wouldn't shutup a few months back. - Evil Beaker Oct 20, 08:37 4
- yep. I plan on reviewing tonight and likely unleashing the alliance on him. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:07
- I thought Rubber Duckie was the guy who started that big truck convoy in the 70s - zork Oct 20, 08:52
- Tangent. A 33 hour cooldown on my forge is damn sexy. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:40
- Sweet. I am on vacation mode, but I like it. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:39
Tech question: would this woot item work for any phone? I know they list certain phones but it would seem it should work for any smart phone (link) - sycor killer Oct 20, 08:36 10
- I use monoprice's version. They charge fast, but consequently run pretty hot. - Reagen Oct 20, 08:40
- i think mostly yes. there could be differences i guess in how many amps this pushes vs your cell charger. - TFox Oct 20, 08:39 7
  - The weird thing is, they are not. - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:47 6
    - my wife's blackberry won't charge through a cord that's connected to a USB hub. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 08:53
    - SheFox ran into one like that too. So I think they're mostly interchangeable, esp as they get closer to accepting a standard. -- nm - TFox Oct 20, 08:51
    - really? I've never come across this. I've used my wife's charge on my phone and didn't have a problem. - sycor killer Oct 20, 08:50 3
      - Yeah, Amy's new phone uses our old equipment (we had the same previous phones). -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 20, 08:58
      - that's what she said? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 08:53 1
        
        possibly. I rolled over and went to sleep when it was done. -- nm - sycor killer Oct 20, 08:56
