I know it is about impossible to pick just one. Just curious - and looking for a few good books I may have overlooked.

The story about the new plague...I can remember the character's names, the story, and even the crappy TV movie they made about it, including most of the actors. The main characters are Fran, Stu Redman, Tom Cullen, and Nadine.
I just can't remember the title, and the new show "Heroes" keeps reminding me of this book, it's driving me nuts.

I am almost positive it doesn't exist. So what do you all think? I am after a philosophical answer, not a religous one.

I first heard this from my grandfather, then years later at school. No one I've asked so far could tell me where this is from or what it is called. But all have said it sounds familiar. Someone told me they thought it was a political satre from the 1800's, but I have been unable to verify it. I have also been told that some of the words are different from what they remember. Here it is:

On a bright, bright day in the middle of the night,
Two dead boys got up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other
Drew thier swords and shot each other.
The deaf policeman heard the noise
And went and killed those two dead boys.
If you think my tale is false
Ask the blind man who saw it all.

Mine is apathetic answerers who show they haven't put any real thought into where the question is coming from or why it was asked. Most times it's obvious, but lazily overlooked.

I have to write a paper on the Voltaire's Candide, but I didn't really understand it all. Could anybody help me with these concepts and point out where examples might be found in the book? Thanks!

1.) The characters and the themes they represent.
2.) Examples of toleration, rule of law and freedom of opinion
3.) The historical significance of the book.

I know it doesn't have an accent on the last vowel, but I've heard it two ways--as in forte. How do most teacher/professors pronounce it?

I read somewhere that there are only (7???) types of story common in all literature/film, etc, but can't remember where I read it, and what they were! I remember it defined each type of story using their most famous example, for example, I remember one of them was the rags-to-riches motif, as seen most famously in Cinderella. Can anyone tell me what the others are, or where I can find this out? If anyone wants to have a good guess, that would be fine too!

Is truth, or the belief that truth cannot lie, the original sin ?

It is interesting to see that some people believe that religion and science do not intersect and they operate on different levels without interesection. Simple logic would suggest that if religion is true, this Gods Science, and the assumed connection to a higher being would be infallible, and operate on a much higher of reliability than mans science which is fallible. Where is this connection, if there is one ? Is there a connection between science and religion ?

Back in 1987, as part of Itlalian Week Saint Anthony's Church on Banning Street received a grant to undertake a workshop on the 'traditional family values" and the pressures being put on the family. In around the same time it was noted that that models used by the 'Childrens Aid Society' in Ontario had been corrupted. A letter to the editor, in the Chronicle Journal and the Thunder Bay Post explaining this fact was published.

How would I best go about doing this? I have heard about the DNA testing but how accurate is it and how detailed would it get you?

Also when a website says something like lands were granted for Battle of Hastings or family seated, what does this mean?
