About Me

Not much to say really. I'm just an average person with a thirst for knowlage. I spend a lot of time thinking on problems and have many unique ideas. I am also currently in the middle of writing a book with two friends. I am also very focused on fitness and nutrition and also have many thoughts on that subject also.

    A comment on Conversation: A universal definition of life.

    Aug 26 2012: If a species cannot both reproduce and enjoy copious amounts of drugs, it is infact a half life.

    Aug 26 2012: They work together in a sort of perfect harmony. A proper diet cant increase life expectancy. Good levels of GH can increase life expectancy. Together they are America.

    Aug 26 2012: Also, if people want what few facts there are, they can be read on the web. This section is labeled ideas.

    Aug 26 2012: I would be more than willing to experiment. But unfortunately I don't have the controlled environment in which I would like to carry out such a test.

    Aug 26 2012: Common symptoms of cold Turkey. Withdrawal symptoms of most kinds can typically last between 5 to 10 days, and the people that have done the experiment past the tenth day from what reasearch I have done seem fine. I think you will find the big problem with the meth heads might actually be the Meth itself. I think if you released than much Methamphetamine and Dopamine into your own head, you wouldnt function well either...... With or without sleep.
  • A comment on Conversation: Is World Peace Possible Thru World Law?

    Aug 26 2012: Even if all the countries of the world united as one and with one world government, there would NEVER be world peace because of "religion" so long as there are so many religions there cannot and will not be peace.

    A comment on Conversation: Is there an exact, definite criteria or standard on ethics?

    Aug 25 2012: Ethics is a simple subject with a simple solution. About 90% of religions including Christianity, Buddhism, and Islam all have that solution (in teaching, not always in practice) and that is to do to others what you would have them do to you. Its simple, its nothing new, you have heard it many times before. This is the answer to all ethical problems, the only thing that lets it down is us and our selfishness.

    A comment on Conversation: A universal definition of life.

    Aug 25 2012: I throught my life have sort the answer to this question, as i'm sure many people have. At certain periods of my life I found myself going through bouts of depression and anxiety over this very question. I have also found that people with a lesser mind do not understand the concept of a life with definition, but this is not ofcorse based on any hard evidence or proper reasearch on my part. After much soul searching and research I found what I believe works for me and that is sex and drugs. Now life is great.......... Also, the younger the better :)
