Today's birthday boy, Arthur Compton!

"For myself, faith begins with a realization that a supreme intelligence brought the universe into being and created man. It is not difficult for me to have this faith, for it is incontrovertible that where there is a plan there is intelligence--an orderly, unfolding universe testifies to the truth of the most majestic statement ever uttered: 'In the beginning God.'" - American physicist Arthur Holly Compton, born Sept. 10, 1892, noted for confirming that electromagnetic radiation is at the same time both a wave and a particle. He was a co-recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1927.

Do you agree with Mr. C?

Thanks for sharing your [rational] views!

It's not that I feel it's a woman's role to look after the house/children, and I hate people who say that men are a better sex than women and that women should serve their men - that just shows that the man is trying to compensate for something ;o)

However I'm a fairly creative person and nothing makes me happier than looking after my home, folding neat stacks of laundry, gleaming taps, cooking wonderful meals, handmaking birthday cards....

.... am I a hypocrit?

I was pretty well prepared for the recent storms in chicago but many of my friends for themselves scrounging for candles and had no battery operated radio or tv's, did not know where the nearest shelters were etc... I wonder just how many people ARE prepared for a real large scale disaster? Natural or otherwise.

I was reading an article which said today's childern are smart and they can't tolerate interference from their parents. They should just leave them alone. Times have changed and today's children are aware of their academic and social responsibilities. Things have changed, those were the simpler times but now the children are much smarter.
