[quote]. . .allz quiet on the front ;_)
As expected, now that they've finally deleted that stupid thread.


Lets all hope Robert doesn't throw his toys out of his pram again because 'his' thread has been deleted. (Well, he did keep reminding us that it was HIS thread...)



Ummmm....you do know that it was me, personally, that was demanding those 2 threads be deleted, right? Once they were created with my personal name in them and posts were magically shifted over there, making it appear as if I had actually created those threads I asked for them to be deleted...

You don't have a problem with that, do you?

*begins 'staring contest*

And from now on, Hunt....refer to me with initials or last name. We're not on a first name basis.

"Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one's values."

Ayn Rand.

Sounds like a compelling reason for anarchy/terrorism.
The individual reigns supreme.

Opps forgot "Homeland Security" is monitoring this.



"The good of the few must not stand in the way of the good of the many.”

Jeremy Bentham.


So many choices. So little time.
Or maybe no choice at all.
Time will tell.

Hi Robert.

I'm some what familiar with Ayn Rand's fiction novels,
but that's all they are, fiction. In no way do they warrant
a philisophical movement in her honour. I would recommend
" Atlas Shrugged " and " The Fountainhead " as a good read, as
well as Herman Hesse's " The Glass Bead Game/Magister Ludi " for
some balance.

Anyway, what do I know?

Guido.

People have more than 1 vocation you know...I didn't realize that philosophers weren't allowed to participate in the arts.....

I'll immediately disassociate myself with my philosophy now since you have pointed this out to me. It's all becoming crystal clear to my mind...

Thanks,'guydude'...
