Just how low is the common denominator? Obviously this is but one example of the "dumbing down" (sic) of language.

How many of us even own a printed dictionary today? I wager not many do and further doubt many know what a thesaurus is.

Effectively dealing with the world's biggest problems will clearly require a new mindset -- a whole new way of seeing human life and the values that support it. Our present values and perspectives give us wars, pollution, poverty and many other negative byproducts that are literally threatening the future of humanity. The solution is to consciously evolve ourselves to a new set of values and principles that allow us to live on this planet in a significantly different way. Perhaps it happens as the reaction to a major to global event like rapid climate change, peaking of oil or a financial collapse, but however it happens, it would produce a new world with a necessarily different economy, ecology, philosophy, politics, and governmental systems. What might that look like?

I have been seeing what a person i know is doing even though they don't live anywhere near me. i see them in my imagination, and then find out what they were doing later through 3rd party. she's not in danger, just sad. i don't know her well, and we aren't really in touch. has this happened to you? is there some message is this? something i should learn? it makes me feel like something urgent is going on, especially the first time. but every time, there is really nothing for me to do. it makes me feel restless.

(In a place that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years?) Hi I am Britney, I was really interested in Dr Stephen Hawkings new question. I was quite thrilled when over 22thousand people visited the net to answer the scientific question. And I wanted to know more too!!!

All religions believe with confidence that there is some sort of paradise or heaven. It is a place where a person should ideally go after life based on one’s deeds. I am looking for scientific or other metaphysical reasoning why the Heaven exist. PLEASE state NO QUOTATIONS or references to any religious or sect scriptures. Just personal or scientific reasoning. Thank you.

I have Cingular Wireless (locked in for another year and a half). A few months ago, I noticed that my computer speakers went nuts with interference seconds before my phone rang. I changed cell phones, but it just got worse. I have experienced this strange, galloping interference in my car speakers, at the grocery check out, and several other places as well. Does anyone know how to make it stop?
