Two examples that I found most amazing are people keep pressing buttons on road crossing and lifts despite knowing that by pressing more times it will not make it any faster. Any takes on what drives that behavior?

A quote from the movie 'Swordfish':

Gabriel: "Stanley, here's a scenario. You
have the power to cure all of the
world's diseases. But the price
for this is that you must kill a
single, innocent child. Could you
kill that child to save the world?"

An ancestor states his birthplace on numerous census returns as 'Pike Town' Worcestershire. I am wondering where abouts this is exactly.

I have some digital artworks I made from my computer that I want to send to various companies and hopefully they will recognize my talent and consider me for hiring. I had these drawings for a few years and have been wanting to show them to the public. Family, friends, and strangers and told me I was quite good and that it doesn't look like I drew it using my mouse but I copied it off of websites. I don't just want to store them in my computer forever. Any advice?

I understand the details about those European wars, and the ones that preceded them. What I'm curious about is the specifics as to why German soldiers had that reputation? Was it their better weaponry, training, or what?

I get really frustrated finding a nice piece of pottery and not being able to tell who made it. I try books and web sites but there are just so many of them it would be really hard to know them all!
It would be great to find a UK site where photos of marks and pots could be posted for identification

Neitzche said that the truest test of philosophy was whether or not one could live by it. Although I have difficulty explaining what my life philosophy is I know it does not work for me. I'm a fairly reserved, decent, and good person and yet I am so utterly lonely. I have friends and family but I am still so desperately alone. I have tried to find some degree of solace in asthetics, in art, in music, in poetry and literature all in the spirit of schopenhauer; I have tried to drown and smoke it away with alcohol and drugs in the true spirit of the hedonist. I admit they work but they are all so temporary. So I suppose it wouldn't hurt to put it to you all. What works for you? Where is my soulmate? I want to live in Arcadia. I want a job where i can work with my hands and I want to die with a smile on my face clasped in her embrace. I'm still a little drunk...
