Sonthert Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 True, but I think the general point was that people's focus should be on making humanity's lot better, not on gadgets that are merely curiosities...if I understand JG's point correctly, she committed the division falacy, a tendency of the general case (society) to be assigned to specific cases (scientists/researchers). You, Sanguine, are correct in that that is illogical, but I think JG was trying to express the sentiment as I redescribed earlier... Phi Gamma Delta is 158 years old, its members must be each 158 years old. Division fallacy. How about, Sang, if JG had added the premise "If the focus of these scientists is any indication of the scientific community's focu in general..." would that close the loop up? Am I misinterpreting your point, Johnny's Girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toothhookahharp Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 shouldnt this be in that other part of the forum where people talk about topics of the day? I do like the idea of spending more time curing cancer since this IS a hookah forum and, well, let's just say we all might need that more than invisibility.

SanguineSolitude Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 i believe that might do it sonth. but i dont think all other unrelated fields should stop what they are doing until a cure for aids is(or isnt) discovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So anyways two blondes and a redhead walk into a bar, each one is only wearing a bra, but each of them has a different color bra on. So the girl in the black bra says to the bartender "Can we get some beer?". The bartender says well, you can, but you just have to answer me one question...
