Just finished counting? - Alexander Kruel

I suppose as long as you're not entering a different universe for everything else you'll have to learn, the residual synapses and the knowledge they represent are enough to build on for prevailing similarities of artifacts, actions and frameworks of the intermediate world in which we reside? Maybe that's why it is so hard to learn about quantum phenomena, grasp relativistic circumstances and make sense of probabilistic behavior within artificial frameworks and of quantum/cosmologic scales? - Alexander Kruel

Fortunately someone fought that battle for me, before I joined the company. The concept of confidence intervals has made its way into the QA department, thank $deity. - Bill Hooker

That's actually part of the problem, being a clinical chemistry lab they are used to giving out quantitative results with confidence intervals - setting a cut-off that makes the lab-answer qualitative (POS/NEG) makes them uncomfortable. Nevertheless what you normally do in microbiology....and the sensible thing in my mind. - Nils Reinton

My search in the U.S. turned up more than 666, and the first hit is a real winner, from a blog called "Jesus Loves Everything" -- it's so over the top that it seems like a parody site. - The Neurocritic

"Instead of biotechnology and computer science, we can focus on Jesus Loves Everything Superstores, reforming our economy so it's better prepared for the end times. Then we will no longer need to teach science in schools, thus depriving our children of the seeds of doubt in the power of our Lord, that He created the world in six days, and that we did not descend from apes." - The Neurocritic

I got 7100 results this time, guess science is getting eviler by the day. maybe we should think seriously about investing in one of them JLE Superstores.. - Christopher Harris

These are great - Kris-Stella
