Washington Post Covers the Australia RC investigation
by LisaRose ini came across this story in the washington post.
it's nice to see they are covering the royal commission.
i have a kindle, everyone who buys one gets free six month subscription (it automatically downloads twice a day) to the post , so i imagine this will get read by a lot of people.

The Nurture of Nature, how to get from genes to behavior
by LisaRose inone thing i have enjoyed since leaving the jehovah's witnesses is learning about science and evolution.
it's so great to be able to look at things without the fog of religious belief clouding things.
of course i have learned a lot from cofty and his threads on evolution, but one thing i struggled with was what causes instinctual behavior in animals for example, what tells birds to fly south for the winter?

Ikea In Store comments
by LisaRose inso, apparently ikea apparently has in store comments (who knew?i don't shop there that much.
), where customers can write their own reviews of products for others to see.
it seems like that would be asking for trouble, and some people are having a bit of fun with it.
