it's the amygdala, stupid
well, most people nowadays believe that the brain is the source of our ''personality'', so it's not big news that brain structure is related to personality traits, and vice versa. and we've known for years that the amygdala is involved with emotional stuff, so big deal, basically. find me a difference in brain structure between yankees fans and ...

Re: Excuse me...nothing nefarious???`
JimBob:I peaceful video has a threatening audio track ''pieced together'' with it and presented to the American public as real-time reality, with Bush posturing and threatening in response...and anyone can see that as even potentially harmless???

The REAL reason Human Cloning is so hard.
Well, animals still have that instinct where they will do anything to survive. On the other hand, humans do not. The mysterious stupid gene is the answer. It's the gene that tells some humans that it is better to sit on their large gludial protrusions - while eating Doritos and watching Divorce court - and collect money from other people. I ...

Re: Why do Americans have so many?
RML: We have a government that lies to us and a culture which encourages the law of the jungle among humans (replace the word ''fittest'' with ''best-armed''). We need to be afraid of our government, afraid of crime, afraid of terrorists, afraid of the end of the world, afraid of aliens, afraid of leaving the house. And when we have a ...

Cattle Disease
Why has the U.S.D.A. not recalled the beef in the US? Bovine disease affects 70% of our cattle, yet, nothing is done to stop it from reaching consumers. Some symptoms are Alzheimer's in adults and ADD in children. I guess a pill will be needed to treat the symptoms instead of the cause. The Egyptian medicine scrolls have been revived by the ...

What a horrible woman
How can anyone write such nonsense? All you've succeeded in doing Ms. Tsai is reinforce the uncivilized and damaging notion that the human body is something to be ashamed of. How could you promote this? For the mental and emotional wellbeing of children (and adults for that matter) I hope you choose not to have children and are never given ...

Re: I was prescribed steroids
mishto: So I don't want to hear that steroids don't make sane people do crazy things. I have never wanted to do violence to another human being except when I was on this drug.
