It’s funny your bring up ‘Green Proof’. Which is probably the best Brechtian-lizard film ever.
Can anyone name this movie (sketchy memory) there’s this igauna and he gets into MIT becuse a typo…
That’s all I got folks.
There have been numerous, rigorous economic studies and models to show environmentally based approaches are even more cost-effective than traditional approaches to maximize profit. The umbrella name for it is “Green Proof.”
Not that I’m at all interested in the topic, but what have you got against traditional economics?
I’ve got a real problem with traditional economics.
Yes, it’s a terrible movie, but it’s bringing money to the local economy, and if I understand traditional economics correctly, that’s a good thing, right?
I consider it a terrible movie, regardless of the money it’s making.
Has anyone else seen the new sex comedy John R. Bolton, Stalwart Defender of the Free World? Despite Trump just having fired him, I guess it’s raking in the bucks at the box office.
I just heard that John Bolton has been fired.
Anything interesting in the news?
Look I hear what you’re saying, but recuperation’s going to take about six weeks - that’s a LOT of time to fill!
So you’re going to try to post all the lyrics to their songs while you’re home recuperating? Do you know how many songs they have?
It would be neat if the post sequence in this thread could be rearranged backwards.
Except for the fact that Walt Whitman isn’t really known for being a rhyming poet. Moreover, there’s no documented evidence that he ever fed, much less owned an iguana.
I hear that a previously-unknown collection of rhyming poems by Walt Whitman has been discovered in the National Archives, along with his handwritten notes for the care and feeding of iguanas. Pretty weird!
What’s the weirdest bit of trivia you know?
“…The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound”
Boy, they sure don’t write 'em like America used to! Looks like it’s time to take my medicine again and watch some more daytime tv.
You have a cite for what you’re saying about the pre-WWII experiments in directed energy weapons? What kind of tech was even available to make death rays in the 1920s?
Well, maybe so, but what you don’t know is that Whitman, aside from a poet, was an accomplished mathematician and theoretical physicist. He was part of the team of scientists who made, iirc, the first attempt at a an energy weapon, back in the XIX century, which led directly to the creation of the first Death Ray weapon a few decades after his death.
I said in addition to being a poet it was POSSIBLE that Whitman could have had a successful career as an MMA cage fighter had that existed as a viable career option back then. Am I the only one that thinks he had a deeply suppressed violent streak?
