That info is not erroneous – though it is currently under relicensing through FERC, the dam stopped hydroelectric production in 1959.

Comment on Please Don’t Super Size Me! by Lucinda

I agree. We had to watch the movie Super Size Me in our health lesson in school and I can say that it definitely made an impact on the way that many of us viewed McDonalds and other fast food companies. He actually took an entire 5 months to lose the weight that he had gained from eating McDonalds for just one month. Anyone who loves McDonalds and other fast foods should definitely watch this movie as you are sure to change your minds after watching it.

Comment on High IQ or High EQ? by Joseph Lee

Joseph Lee — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 12:46:17 +0000

Well, I would think that having a high EQ might be great, and so would having a High IQ. The only thing with having a high EQ (in my experience ( I have an estimated IQ of 148 and EQ of 150) is that despite being able to empathize and understand others, sometimes it’s quite annoying because of emotional problems you may encounter in life. Remember that having a higher EQ means you are more emotional, and thus it will make you more vulnerable to diseases caused by emotional problems, such as depression. Also, this is only my opinion, but females and gay males would generally have higher EQs than Straight males and lesbians, as they’re amygdalas (a part in your brain that functions for emotional abilities) are more developed. (as recently found in researches.

Yeah…okay…
hahaha….AND YES SOMETIMES>…PEOPLE BELIEVE YOU ARE REALLY WEIRD (or that’s the case for me—;;;) cuz you have LAUGH SPASMS and CRYING SPASMS, but that may just be me…
Yes…okay…
sorry about the crappy reply, but hey, I’m only 13 and Korean;;;

(and no, not all High IQ and EQ people are this garrulous)

Try Pero… it is a drink that is made of Barley and all you do is add water … I added some cinnamon to give it a little more flavor.

In answer to your question about how to download flash illusions like the one on my site, probably the easiest way would be to use the Embedded Objects add-on for Firefox.

Hi Jim,

I’m a biology teacher and would love some way of saving this illusion on my computer for class. Is there any way of downloading it or getting it somewhere? I would very much appreciate a reply! Thanks!

Comment on e to the pi times i by ActualRandy

I wasn’t familiar with that equation either, and I have a BS in math! But there are a ton of topics in math, and I only was exposed to some of them. Since Euler’s Identity is part of algebra, and I never took non-abstract algebra in college, it never came up. Looks cool – thanks!

Comment on Star Wars the Old Republic by ActualRandy

Hey Jim – thanks for posting this. That’s an awesome trailer. I can’t believe you never played KOTR – it’s my number 3 all time favorite game. Given that you’re a Star Wars fan, I’m positive you’d be delighted to play it, and I’m sure you can get it cheap now that it’s been available for a couple of years.

I agree, it does make me more likely to consider a MMORPG, but I didn’t hear them say anything about PKs or other nasty aspects of other online systems.
