Oh, my. I just looked at Energize' profile. According to Maths, he's 24.

I know. That's what I thought when I had a huge debate with him because he refused to believe that "lag" can also refer to graphical lag and not just connection lag.

He's a god-damn troll. He annoys me.
God bless ignore.

I actually took him off my ignore list.

You know, when I got the ability to delete all his posts.

Give me that ability and no-one will need to ignore him!

By the way, I've hooked up your mod powers on the Anarchy Board for you.

Wow, something STRANGE just happened. I was just browsing the forum, as you do, and I clicked on 'Last' to jump to the last page of topics. There were 68 pages, with topics from late 2002 and early 2003 on the last page. Anyway, I go back to page 1 and click on 'Last' again, and there were only 4 pages! What's going on there?! I was go frightened, that my bowels emptied all over my lovely shagpile!

This looks like a job for the A-Team! (If I can find them).

I've noticed that sometimes the forum goes stupid and thinks that somewhere in the middle of the thread is the end and won't let you view past that point.

Actually, I haven't noticed that.... lousy weather.

Um... yeah.

My parents are downstairs watching The Day After Tomorrow. I've just dramatic music and screaming, presumably meaning that the big tidal wave thingy has occurred.

I also watched Van Helsing last night. Interesting how Hugh Jackman and Shuler Hensey (VH and Frankenstein's Monster) are both in it, and they're also both in the West End version of Oklahoma! that we have the DVD of (as Curly and Judd).

Annoyingly, England lost the third test, so it's 1-1 with two to play, now.

That movie seemed a little too typical to me. Great special effects, though.

I only agree with Jean Reno and Sean Connery. Also, no one should play Gordon. They should make it entirely in first person. I know it can be done well, and it has. It would be quite hard though. The only way we see his face is in reflections.

Aiiiiiiieeeeeeee! Why did I start this TroutWar thing?! AIIIEEEEEEEe

I was going to say something, but I forgot what it was...

Don't you hate it when that happens in a converation - like you wait for one subject to be over, and then you forget...Oh yes, I've got that mental state down pat.

Some of the kids at my school do that - they'll have their hand up for ever, and then the teacher will finally call on them, and they'll have forgotten.

I have a spacebar in my pocket.

I have the w,s,a and d keys in my pocket. Try to type without them!!!

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

WASD!

Maybe you have your own WASD keys in your pocket? ;)

hmmm...

*checks pocket*

You stole my WASD keys!!!

WSABI WSABI WSABI!!!!

I was driving in the car one day on the M4 and I turned off into a Mc Donalds. I suddenly saw a large video tape run out in front of me and I ran it over. It then threw up across my car and started shouting "YOU SHALT DIE TEH DIXONSS1111"" for some reason. I then got out of my car on then suddenly noticed Spunge Bobsquare Pants sitting on the roof of the car while being chased by a large cat. I then decided it was time to put down the bong and retreat quickly.

OOwah!


BWOAAAAAAAAARK!

Speaking of bongs, I just noticed the bubble machine in The Sims is made to look like one.

Another one:

The saw was saying: "Dawn is my wart!"

I just watched Dannie Darko. I don't really get it.:-/ Could someone explain.

1) It's Donnie Darko, and

2) No. I haven't watched it.

And before you ask, the first thing was an excuse to let me type the second thing.

*splode*

I just watched Dannie Darko. I don't really get it.:-/ Could someone explain.
no.

No one can explain. :p

Great film though.

I'm going to rent the director's cut sometime, it will probably answer more and supposedely it's a lot better then the the original cut.

I just watched Dannie Darko. I don't really get it.:-/ Could someone explain.

Here goes:

The main character, Donnie Darko, essentially becomes the hero after he completes his arduous journey. Frank, a supernatural being in a bunny suit, shows Donnie the disastrous future that lies ahead. Through his journey, it becomes apparent that the world will end if Donnie does not follow his intended path - death. In the end, Donnie chooses to sacrifice his own life to prevent the death and suffering of others, namely his girlfriend, Gretchen. Although a very simplified summary, it will help one better understand the characters and the analysis of them to follow.


The most prevalent sign throughout the movie is that of darkness. Darkness connotes many things – night, death, loneliness and the unknown, to name a few. Overall, the word is culturally perceived as having negative connotations within Western society. The movie draws on these connotations to allow the viewer to better comprehend the main character, Donnie Darko. Considering that his name contains the word dark within it, it should be assumed that the character would also reflect the aforementioned connotations of darkness. Donnie is a troubled child, and throughout the movie is on medication to cope with his depression. Donnie’s depression comes from his fear of dying alone. Death and loneliness are two ideas strongly related to darkness. For instance, in Western culture, it is customary to wear dark (preferably black) clothing to a funeral. Also, when one is in the darkness, they cannot see anyone else, and can thus perceive themselves to be alone. In addition to fearing death, Donnie also questions the existence of God, as he believes “that every living creature on the earth dies alone” (Kelly, 2000). Again, this shows that Donnie has not yet accepted God as his savoir and his guiding light. In essence, he lives in darkness, and has not yet ‘seen the light’.


The scene that best exemplifies the impact of darkness is when Donnie and his love interest, Gretchen, present their invention in science class. The invention was called ‘Infant Memory Generators’, and they were to be placed over infants eyes while they slept. The glasses displayed beautiful, positive images to the infant, in the hopes it would make them happier and ultimately help them develop memories earlier in life. The teacher then corrects them and says, “Did you stop and think that maybe infants need darkness, that maybe darkness is part of their natural development?" (Kelly, 2000). This is a message indirectly meant for Donnie, alluding to the fact that to question your existence and place in this world is natural, and possibly necessary for development. Another example of darkness comes from a scene near the end of the movie, where Donnie and three others ride their bikes through the darkness. Donnie’s bike is the only one without a light attached to it. This short scene signifies that Donnie is the only one who cannot avoid the darkness, and continues to be shrouded by it. Overall, the use of darkness in this movie adds sufficiently to the development of the main character. Because of the negative connotations attached to the word, one easily transfers them to Donnie’s character, and can see him as a ‘dark’, troubled, unsure individual.


Although Donnie is shown as being a very troubled individual, the film also depicts him with abnormal strength, and control of elements such as fire and water. These are character traits often found in the fictional world of comic books. Through analysis, one can see that the director was trying to portray Donnie Darko as a ‘superhero’ of sorts. Upon examining his name, one can see the alliteration that exists. This alliteration is something that is quite common amongst superheroes - Bruce Banner, Clark Kent, Peter Parker and Scott Summers, to name a few. Also, it is customary for superheroes to have a ‘superpower’, which is often control over an element. Through certain scenes, Donnie is shown manipulating two particular elements, fire and water. In one instance, Donnie sets a child pornographers house ablaze, and in another, he floods the school. While these are blatant examples, there are also some subtle ones. During one scene, Donnie is shown walking past a house casually. When he enters the scene, the lawn sprinklers raise from the ground and turn on, but as he walks away, they turn off and retract. Aside from his control of the elements, Donnie also demonstrates abnormal strength. After he floods the school, the janitor finds an axe lodged into the school’s solid bronze statue. It would have been impossible to penetrate this statue with an axe, but it was somehow accomplished. Although Donnie is never shown lodging the axe into the statues head, it can be assumed that he put it there. A blatant final reference to Donnie’s superpowers comes from a conversation Donnie has with Gretchen. Gretchen says to him, “Donnie Darko? What kind of name is that anyways? Sounds like a superhero or something.” To which Donnie replies calmly, “What makes you think I’m not?” (Kelly, 2000). With this comment, the commonality of alliteration in superheroes, Donnie’s implied strength and his manipulation of elements, it is clear that the director is attempting to signify him as a superhero.


Although Donnie Darko is an interesting character, one can see that he, and his story, are not entirely original. Quite simply, his story has many links to that of the life of Jesus, the savior found within the Christian religion. That being said, Frank, Donnie’s guide through the film, can be seen as Jesus’ father, God. In Jesus’ story, he ultimately gives his life, and dies for the sins of the world. Jesus dies to open the gates of heaven, and ultimately saves the souls of all mankind. Donnie does the same, by sacrificing himself to save the lives of Gretchen and others, and possibly even the world, as alluded to in the summary. Another obvious linkage between the stories is that in both, a supernatural entity foretells the saviors untimely death. Frank comes to Donnie in one of the first scenes in the movie, and foretells his death, and the end of the world. God did the same for Jesus, telling him he would die on the cross. Both men give their lives unselfishly, in order to further the progression of mankind. At one point in the movie, Frank is referred to as, “Deus Ex Machina”, which is Latin for 'Machine of God' (Kelly, 2000). Thus, whether or not Frank is God, it is implied that he is to at least carry out God’s will. Besides these obvious examples, there are some other subtle hints. When Donnie leaves the movie theatre on Halloween, there is a double feature playing. One movie is called, “Evil Dead”, and the other is Martin Scorsese’s classic, “The Last Temptation of Christ”. As this misplaced film has nothing to do with Halloween, it is an obvious biblical reference which characterizes Donnie’s position, and further supports this theological theory. Donnie’s aforementioned ability to manipulate water is also concurrent with that of Christ, as Jesus is once portrayed as literally walking on water. During the movie, Donnie also sets the house of a town idol on fire. The fire tears apart this man’s house, which effectively reveals his distribution ring of child pornography. This can be seen as Donnie exposing a false prophet, a feat also accomplished by Jesus. In a final example, an extended scene shows Donnie, after his death, positioned in the same fashion as Jesus on the crucifix, pinned to a wall in his room with a wooden stake. With all of these examples, it is clear that the director was signifying the story of Christ through his characters.


Donnie Darko does an excellent job using culturally ingrained ideas to help convey its plot and develop its characters. These themes - darkness, the supernatural and Christian ideologies – allow the Western audience to connect with the film and understand the deeper meaning than is denoted. The extensive use of symbolism creates a movie that is effective on many levels, and has quite possibly created a classic film to be enjoyed for eternity

Also, I did not come up with this some guy named John Hartery did.

I don't see how the bunny is trying to help Dannie. Because of the bunny, Dannie doesn't die. He gets led out of the house by the bunny and the engine fell when he was away. It also doesn't explain why the bunny was the guy he shot. I think the bunny is more devil like and he wants the world to end, that's why he lures him out of the house so he doesn't die. Also, how does Donnie have control over water and fire? He set the house on fire with gasoline and he flooded the school by breaking a pipe and then he writes in the ground "They made me do it." And the bunny also tells that he didn't get caught so its alright. Doesn't sound very God like to me. What about the time portals? How does he go back in time? I understand he died so he doesn't make the people he knew suffer, but it didn't seem that the world was saved. It just seemed that he wanted to help others before the end came.

I was just dogfighting in a Hydra in San Andreas. I took out about 5 rival jets before going down after crashing into a news helicopter. It was awesome.

In the original timeline, Gretchen dies, and Donnie kills Frank
Frank's spirit goes back in time along with the engine, and saves Donnie from dying, a second timeline is created
Then Frank tries to solve several stuff by making Donnie do things(like, burn that guy's house to show the world what he's doing), and he probably tells donnie things that are gonna happen in the future to stop him from doing that, but that blobby things that seem to run destiny force him to do stuff(grab the gun, go to the old lady's house) and the same stuff happens again
Then the engine goes back in time (and a third timeline is created) and somehow Donnie knows what's going to happen and decides not to leave, and dies
Or frank decided not to save him anymore, or told him what was going to happen and donnie decided to stay, who knows

We just got over 16" of rain in the recent rain storms. All the roads to and from this little town of mine are closed. And the Ventura river, usually dry, is roaring.

Even though the rain has stopped, school is still cancelled. (I think because most teachers live in nearby Ventura and can't get to school)

No, no, you're all wrong

Donnie owns a pet rabbit named Frank. Meanwhile a plane carrying the God of Chance flies ahead. Frank gets hit by a bus, driven by the old lady who then goes crazy - due to guilt. The plane starts to fall and the God of Chance leaps out into Frank's dead body forming Uber-Frank! Uber-Frank is a freaky-ass man/bunny with a loyalty to Donnie. Thus he stops Donnie from being killed by the plane. However, now that he's a creepy weird dude, he gets Donnie to do his bidding. Now he is the master! After a number of hilarious pranks, such as flooding a school and what have you, Uber-Frank gets bored. He is then accidently spotted by some guy who becomes his biggest fan and decides to dress up like Uber-Frank for Halloween. Also, some blobs... also known as the blobs of JUSTICE are tracking Uber-Frank down. They know that he should be dead, along with Donnie but don't kill Donnie because they think they can use him to get to Frank. Anyway, hilarity ensues... Donnie shoots Uber-Frank's biggest fan because he wants to be his own boss and thinks the fan is Uber. Then he rides into a tornado, because that's always been his life's ambition. SHAAAZAAAAM! It wasn't a hurricane at all, it was a trap set by the Blobs of Justice to revert time to the way it was, before the accident. The God of Chance decides the last timeline was too crazy and decides to let himself die in the plane so never fuses with Frank. Donnie also remembers everything but is too lazy to go outside as it's late at night and he's tired. Donnie Dies. The End

Come on, you know it makes sense. ;)

Seriously though, I hate Donnie Darko. It just seemed like another one of those movies that people make to appear clever when it's actually not. It makes people think "What does this mean?" when it probably doesn't mean anything or what it does mean is very simple, the creator has just made it confusing so that it will appear smarter than it is. Another thing I hate about Donie Darko is that terrible "Mad World" song. I mean -it's so depressing. If I want time-travel, I'll watch Back to the Future and if I want giant invisible crazy rabbits, I'll watch Harvey (the original, not the remake) - I don't need something that combines the two in such a weird and annoying way.

:eek:
You... mad person!
I loved the movie too, mainly because I identify myself with Donnie in many aspects
And I find the song quite cool, the lyrics and the depressiveness(?) of it
And about the plot, even if it's not clever at all, it does feel like it
It's like Half Life 2, it's possible that Valve doesn't even know where they are heading the story too, but they are still doing a great job on it

And now for something completely different...

Sitting down, weight off my feet,
did my work, took the trash out
got a new game, now it's gonna be sweet
just a man - and his license to play

so many times, it happens to pass,
you trade your tekken for yoshi
Don't lose your grip on the games you once had
you must play them to keep them alive

It's the thumb of the gamer, it's the thrill of the bytes,
rising up to the challenge of the pixels
And the last game you played sits on your shelf tonight,
and it's ready for when you next use... the thumb of the gamer

face to screen - a.rse on your seat,
gaming hard, getting hungry
They stack the odds but we're not gonna cheat
For the glory, that lies deep inside

Chorus

Risin' up - straight to the top,
pressed some buttons, unlocked kirby
beat the main game, but I'm not gonna stop,
just a man and his license to play

Chorus

The thumb of the gamer
The thumb of the gamer
The thumb of the gamer

haha that's great! :D


OINK!

Time for me to go outside and rescue a meow meow from a tree

While playing with my ATI control settings, I turned my monitor's image upside down. This is really disorienting. With Window's shaded buttons, things that aren't selected look selected, and things that are look like they aren't.

Ooh, I've done that a couple of times. I prefer it sideways though :9

I achieved that effect on my STe by turning the TV upside down. Technology these days, what's it bloody for?

I ask that question about many useless gadgets that are made in this day.

For reference, I'm back at Uni.

Heil Harry, poor boy can't help but offend a lot more people than the average person wearing a Nazi uniform. Growing up is all about learning by consequences isn't it?

The party was private, and the media weren't expected to be involved. It's a shame - is the lad not allowed to grow up his own way?

For reference, me = anti-royalist.

The guy is kind of dumb. He said he didn't mean to offend anyone and he did not know. That shows he has no knowledge since he doesn't seem to know a lot about WWII.

Seriously, how can you NOT know about WWII? Firstly, you learn about it at school quite a bit, more so if you study History at all. Also, let's assume you didn't pick up anything from school, there are programs on about WWII consistently. I find it hard to believe that even a complete idiot would be unaware that dressing up like a Nazi is offensive. Then again, if he's a facist, that would explain it. And given the family that he's from... it's not unlikely.

As you may have guessed, I'm anti-monarchy.

I personally believe that it was stupid of him to do it, but it's almost as stupid for people to keep asking for him to reply publically.

The people who have the most reason to be offended by it have forgiven him, and all that going on about it is doing is making people thinking about it more, and so offend more people.


Personally I like the monarchy. :)

And it makes the media make an even bigger deal about it.

Um...

The Producers (Springtime for Hitler),
Dad's Army,
'Allo, 'Allo,
Fawlty Towers (The Germans),
Red Dwarf (Meltdown).

It's not like pretending to be Nazis hasn't been done before. It's not something I'd do myself, but I do rather think the whole thing's overblown.

For the record, I'm indifferent to the whole monarchy thing. TBH, I can't see why it matters: it's not like they have any real power.

Well techinally, they can behead you. Although I'm pretty sure they'd get a bit of stick if they tried.

It's not something I'd do myself, but I do rather think the whole thing's overblown.

That's why I hate the media.

I don't see anything wrong in him dressing that way, it was just a party, it's not like he dressed like that in a public charity event or something

The guy is kind of dumb. He said he didn't mean to offend anyone and he did not know. That shows he has no knowledge since he doesn't seem to know a lot about WWII.ok, so if you went to a fancy dress party dressed as Hitler, I doubt that would make headline news, I doubt you'd have to apologise. I don't see what this has to do with the media at all - do the royal family have to sit around drinking spiffing cups of tea all day? Just because he's a royal doesn't mean he shouldn't be allowed to do his own thing.

Dressing up as something is not the same as endorsing it. My friend went to a party as a vampire. Nobody complained. His friend was there as a gangster. Nobody complained. His friend was there as the Devil. And yes still, nobody complained. So... Nazis are worse than the combined forces of the undead, organised crime, and Satan. And a lion.

When you are so high in society you have to be a lot more careful about what you do because one stupid thing could shame your whole family, as we have seen with this situation.

But it shouldn't. That's the point. People should just accept it, and even if they hate you for it they should let your family off the hook. We're not bloody Klingons.

I agree with you, but unfortunately, people aren't like that.

England won the fourth test with an astonishing bowling performance from Matthew Hoggard of 7-61! The match had so many twists and turns: from the massive partnership between Strauss and Key on Day 1, through a batting collapse, then Vaughan batting with the tail, then Gibbs smashing 161 for SA as they sneaked past England's declaration total. Then an astonishing 180 from Trescothick, and finally Hoggard's performance to bowl SA out in just over two sessions!

Not that astonishing. I saw this programme the other night when there were about three 180s.

Though thinking back, it may have been the darts championship.

I feel like commiting suicide.

Where's that poem on suicide when you need it? It was something about how hanging yourself is too uncomfortable, poison tastes too bad, drowning yourself in the river is too wet, a gun is way too messy, so you might as well stay alive anyway. :p

Well, don't.

I think seagulls will hang around pretty much anywhere where there's loose food to be scavenged, I'm not sure. :p

Are you sure it wasn't just a normal gull? They're mainly coastal birds, but not all of them are.

It probably was a normal gull. I noticed that it didnt **** on me.

Adventures of Captain Underpants
Attack of the Talking Toilets
The really long named one involving alien lunch ladies and zombie nerds
Professor Pippy Pee-Pee Poopypants
Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman
Booger Battle 1

Personally, I have no sense of age. I'm 16, I play with lego, toy cars, the likeness. I write about Communist Penguins and their adventures (COPYRIGHTED! DON'T FRAUD ME NOW!) I Read anything amusing, including Where's Waldo. It's the good life, but no one takes you seriously.

Thank goodness my self image has been dead since I was 5!

I don't think there's anything too wrong with that.

My self image has been dead since before I was born.

Incidentally, I also still have quite a collection of Lego, even though I rarely do anything with it anymore.

Oh, and I also have a talking Pikachu plush toy. If that doesn't say geekiness, I don't know what does.

I have a friend who's 21 and has a Bob the Builder t-shirt. And wears it. In public.

The scary thing, really, is that the cut fits her perfectly. I mean, she's quite small, but I really think the chest is more than ample for the age range who should be watching Bob the Builder...

I find that jerky tends to taste like salami, but not quite as good, so I tend to eat salami. :cool: Venison jerky might be interesting though!

Heck, I dunno, somethin'.

Damn these one way streets.

Or maybe a flux in the space-time continuum!

Or a hamster!

Edit: Hey, on that note, we're back where we started.

Can't be flux in space-time. If it was a flux, you'd still be able to go back, you'd just be traveling through time too. And that isn't something to get upset about. That is just neat.

Edit: Fixed tpyo.

But if you travelled through time, wouldn't you get old and stuff or something? Or young.

I got one word for you: Relativity.

But if you travelled through time, wouldn't you get old and stuff or something? Or young.
No. If you travel to a sunny place do you get a tan immediately? If you travel to China do you suddenly find you know the language and have Chinese facial features? No, you don't. Stop being silly.

Well, that and time travel is impossible. (At least, it is at the moment (I know, I know, that would change if time travel is invented (though I suppose that's a case for "it's impossible" (though Many Worlds implies that...)))...)

No. If you travel to a sunny place do you get a tan immediately? If you travel to China do you suddenly find you know the language and have Chinese facial features? No, you don't. Stop being silly.Makes sense.

Wow, time travel's boring.

Edit: Fixed tpyo.Oh, the irony.

Oh, the irony.
Once again, we question the machine.

I learned about the twin paradox thing recently. Apparently if a ship moves at relativistic speeds, time passes slower on the ship. But from the ship's frame of reference, the Earth is moving away at relativistic speeds, so time passes slower on Earth.

Crazy stuff.

I learned about the twin paradox thing recently. Apparently if a ship moves at relativistic speeds, time passes slower on the ship. But from the ship's frame of reference, the Earth is moving away at relativistic speeds, so time passes slower on Earth.

Crazy stuff.It's not really. The solution to the paradox stems from the fact that, in order to return to Earth, the spaceship has to turn around at some point. You lose some annoying time and space somewhere along the line, and it all works out somehow.

At least, that's what I remember from my Special Relativity course last year. Good job I've decided to take it again this year...

You know what? If I ran a kids' show, I'd do that Magic Word of the Day thing where everybody has to yell really loudly whenever somebody says it.

And on other days I would make it like "deoxyribonucleic" and whoever said it would be attacked by a guy in a big lobster suit instead.

And on some days I would make up words like "dehoobanox" and anybody who said that would spontaneously burst into flame.

...In a movement known as "armageddon." :p

If I were President, I'd outlaw stupidity.Thus reducing the american population to just a few thousand:p

You missed my point. :p

It's not really. The solution to the paradox stems from the fact that, in order to return to Earth, the spaceship has to turn around at some point. You lose some annoying time and space somewhere along the line, and it all works out somehow.

At least, that's what I remember from my Special Relativity course last year. Good job I've decided to take it again this year...
I found a site discussing that 'paradox' but I didn't really understand much of it. It used the term "proper time" in entirely the wrong context so I'm not at all sure it's my fault.

Basically, yes. More specifically, the Special Relativity works only in inertial frames of refference. As soon as the space ship starts turning arround or decelerating for a return trip, Special Relativity is out, and you must use General Relativity. There are some extra complicated equations that kick in, and as a result the people on earth age more than the people who have returned on the space ship. This has been tested with atomic clocks and seems to work.

Andrew, can you as a moderator view Energize's IP? If so, trace it and find out if he is in Tokyo, Japan, as his location claims. If he isn't then next time I enter a debate with him I might be able to use that or something. ;)

Nope. Only admins see that. But I can tell you that as of April 23rd 2004 he was using a BT Central Plus connection:

Ben's right... if T17 don't make a non-Worms game any time soon, people will forget they make other games...

Logically, if Team17 don't make another non-worms game then those people will be correct.

Fine.

Well, I'm pulling my first ever "all-nighter" in an attempt to get some past paper questions done for a supervisor who decided that of course the logical time to do a revision supervision is four months before the exams...

I've been awake 20 hours now. Wish me luck!

Wow. Good luck! I hope you don't get sick or anything. Exhaustion is bad enough.

Exhaustion causes an entirely different brand of thinking. I quite enjoy being exhausted and trying to think. Everything is much clearer. Such as how one calories heats one gram of water one degree celcius.

Did you make it?

I remember being in a similar situation once back in high school (it's happened plenty at Uni, too, mostly a couple of weeks ago-- onece I was working past the deadline on the basis I could probably blag it in anyway, and indeed I could). I eventually decided to get up early the next morning and do the work. It was a research sheet for design tech. I made it, got into school on time, and was the only person not asked to do it again! Oh, yes!

In the end I recorded 23 and a bit hours, more because I realised I wasn't actually getting anywhere in my work rather than actual exhaustion (though my brain was decidedly feeling a bit funny), and the kudos of going the full 24 didn't really seem to be worth it.

On the other hand, I've only slept 3 and half hours of the past 27 now, so be gentle with my brain.

Alright, I'll— IF SEEING A BLACK RAVEN INCREASES THE PROBABILITY THAT ALL RAVENS ARE BLACK THEN LOGICALLY SEEING A NON-BLACK OBJECT THAT IS ALSO NON-RAVEN OBJECT ALSO INCREASES THAT PROBABILITY SO WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU SEE A PURPLE COW?

Er... sorry.

You wonder what's gone wrong with the universe, of course. I've yet to see a purple cow. Even in my current state of mind.

I've seen a few antelopes, though. But I think that was the cookies that the Admin on a board I joined recently gave me.

I don't think seeing most non-black non-ravens affects the probablity that all ravens are black.

I don't think seeing most non-black non-ravens affects the probablity that all ravens are black.That's because I skipped over that bit:

The assertion "all ravens are black" is logically equivalent to the assertion "all non-black objects are non-raven objects" (it is impossible for one to be true and not the other, ergo they are the same thing). Logically to prove it you need to know you've seen all the ravens (or all the non-black objects) in the world, which isn't possible so all you can do is define some probability P that the assertion is true. Then you go out into the world and look at things. If you see something that supports your claim (a black raven or a non-black non-raven) then P edges closer to 1. If you see a blue raven P drops to zero and stays there for evermore (quoth he).

A purple cow is a non-black non-raven, so theoretically increases P, but intuitively a purple cow suggests oddly coloured animals are rare but do exist and therefore decreases P.

Therein lies the Bloody Stupid Raven Paradox, one of the sillier paradoxes.

I drew something. Yay for me!

Boo for my scanner!

The assertion "all ravens are black" is logically equivalent to the assertion "all non-black objects are non-raven objects" (it is impossible for one to be true and not the other, ergo they are the same thing).
I disagree. Ravens are a category in the section of black objects. All ravens are black, but that doesn't mean that all black objects are ravens. There can be other black objects, but there can't be any other colored ravens. There can be black pens, and that doesn't make the statement of "all ravens are black" false in any way. See this diagram:

Actually Andrew's assertions are logically equivalent, he's not saying that there can't be other black objects.

I'm writing a Zero Theorem. Basically, it states that four zeroes exist.

Don't quote me, it may be flawed.

Actually, this diagram should look a little different, because not all pens are black.

My brain appears to be reset to normal parameters now. I feel a little woozy, but that's just general "it's morning"-ness with me.

Though I did oversleep an hour and have thus pretty much missed today's first lecture. On the other hand, I have copying up to do anyway, so it's not like I'm not in a bit of hole already.

See this diagram:
I get around that by not ever having claimed that all black objects are ravens. I said all ovjects that are not black are not ravens. Which is implied by the original statement because if a non-black object were a raven then the statement "all ravens are black" is demonstrably untrue. Similarly, if a raven was not black, then that non-black object would be a raven, which is not a non-raven object.

And it's not my assertion; it's the Bloody Stupid Raven Paradox. It's pretty well known.

Perhaps we need a seperate thread to solve that prime number problem ;)The combined forces of mathematics have been trying to solve it for centuries.
