I didn't know that!

I sorta remembered the February thing, because it's close to the birth-date of a daughter of a friend, and looked in "Press" and checked dates and couldn't find an exact one.

[Edit:

how does capitalisation in parentheses work?

I've always wondered about that. You know that there are no capital letters in Hebrew, right?]

Egg Beaters don't really make good scrambled eggs. Hmph.

Here's what you can do to fix that. Take 3/4 cup of egg beaters, add 3/4 cup warm milk, 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup sugar, 4 cups flour, and a packet of yeast. Scamble well, let rise 1 hour, the make balls out of the mix and pack into a greased 13x9 pan in rows of four, let rise another 1/2 hour and finally bake at 400 degrees for about 18-20 minutes. When you're done you're still out of luck in the scrambled egg department, but at least you can have some really good rolls to deal with the disappointment.

Just for the record, I'm going with "ridiculously awesome" and am willing to fight those who say different.

Are you driving this question with the idea of sapience or the soul? What does the human have that the cat doesn't that's relevant to the experiment?

Daniel Dennett argued that sapience is the point at which any uncertain eigenstate (which, to my ill-informed mind, means "life-state") wave would collapse (i.e. human intelligence, which most would argue is somewhat sapient,* can measure the difference between "life" and "death" whereas kitty-cat sapience is unproven, thus an uncertain measuring tool).

I don't know.

Correct!

Edit to include footnote:
* despite all of the evidence to the contrary

Then how do you express COMPLETE OMG FLAILMENT?

We move our hands a lot.

[Edit: we don't really have a way to do that. There are two kinds of writing in Hebrew, but you either use one or the other, so neither one can be used to "shout".]

I just used asscaps in an email to one of my NY bosses.

At least I didn't call them asscaps.

I think that a cat knows its alive, it just doesn't waste time thinking about it as much as we do, and asking questions about its meaning.

But it's still aware, and can tell the difference between life and death in other mammals.

I know I'm alive (unless of course I am not), but that's not to say I'd know if I were dead.

I think that if the experimenter got into the box, the eigenstate collapses. If he grabs the nearest schoolgirl and shoves her in without any knowledge of the point of the experiment nor means to communicate with the outside world, I'm going to have to vote for the eigenstate on this one.

However, the fucking tree made fucking noise when it fucking fell. What sort of nonsense question is that.

I don't know.

Correct!

Good, because I wasn't sure.

I just choked on my protein bar.

Polgara!

Hi, Nilly! Long time no "see"!
