Adapted from a list of questions posed to students and delegates after a tour / discussion about climatology, global warming, climate change etc. None of the questions seek to prove or disprove global warming and climate change, all have factual answers.

How did you do? After the discussion / tour most people get about 12 or 13 out of 20 correct. There's only 17 questions here and they're not following a discussion in which many of the answers are mentioned. I reckon 5 or 6 would be quite a reasonable score, more than 10 would be really good.


1) The earliest reliable temperature record dates from...
A) 1559, B) 1659, C) 1759, D) 1859, E) 1959


2) What are the first three letters of the name of that record?
A) Had, B) Has, C) Her, D) His, E) Hot


3) Which of these five figures is closest to the AVERAGE amount of water vapour in the atmosphere?
A) 0.01%, B) 0.05%, C) 0.1%, D) 0.5%, E) 1.0%

I was cooking dinner last night and my 6 year old son told me that he had sex with the neighbor who is 11. I said, excuse me, what are you talking about. He said you know mommy what you do to have babies. Of course I said no, and he said when someone rubs their privates on yours.... So I asked with clothes on, and he said yes. I'm not sure what to do. Do I call the police, doctor, or just talk to the mother? How would I bring it up? Then come to find out, she also tries to kiss him and she makes him and another neighborhood girl kiss. I am so mad right now! How do I explain it to him without making him think he did something wrong? Please help me!

Other insurance has paid for all medical bills and car repair.
Released from care and time to settle-- insurance co. is offering us both around $2250. Seem fair? (prefer no lawers involved).

Eternal Life(Only) is not Life + Death.
His Grace is not both Grace + Law.

Life in CJ is temporal Life + Death.
Life in JC is eternal Life(Only).

Perhaps CJ ppl forget the law is both:
- the ministration of condemnation, AND
- the ministration of death: 2Corinthians3
So they go with another law of Rom 8 law vs law,
and after all who will live godly in CJ shall "suffer",
they end up dead from the ministration of death: law.

E-Salvation & Peace with God are "through J-->C".
C: "is the end of the law", not the mend of the law.
For no matter how much law is ammended,
it's eventually "the ministration of death",
after it causes suffering and sorrows.

Law: Mend it or End it?
C is the end of the law!
C is our peace: Eph 2.

...and we set up a movie date that same night for Friday at a theater. On Wednesday, he texted me to see if I was busy and to see if I wanted to come over and watch a movie at his house. I told him i was and he said “see u on Friday then”. Since I’ve had pretty bad experiences with guys who wanted to just score, I got suspicious. He seems like a pretty nice guy but i have my guard up big time. Am I wrong to be suspicious in this situation?

I have been friends with someone for about 5 years now and we have gone through alot together and now it seems as if she has changed and not for the better.
Recently she filed for divorce and I understand that because of something this big some changes will happen but her whole lifestyle has changed. She use to never go out and party (for one reason she has kids) and she use to call me atlest 2 or 3 times a week and I would do the same or I would atleast get a text message once a day. Now I havent got a call from her in about a week or so, and now all she does is go out and party (or thats the way it seems) and when I do call and she does answer we only talk for about 3 minutes or so. I am worried that something is wrong with our friendship. Can anyone give me a fresh perspective on this???
Should i continue to be there for her or should I cut the friendship off or just be there but leave her alone and wait to pick up the pieces?

My medical doctor prescribed this anti-depressant for me back in the summer of 2005. It lead to the most severe bout of depression that I've ever had, lasting through into early 2006. I was suicidal in January and February of 2006. Has this drug done anyone any good?
