- 1: after going to these places i almost end up hating Abraham Lincoln in response to how deep people read into his life. they build him up to be more perfect than any human ever was.
2: i dont want to hear another fucking banjo for quite a while.
other than that the trip was ok.
I recently went here, they now allow you to video and photograph anywhere in the museum. just some rooms don't allow flash photography.
brilliant very interesting and enjoyable
Bluegrass is some of my favorite music.. I'm not sure how someone could get tired of Banjo Music
I was even able to recognize most of the songs they were playing :D
i'd have to say a part of why they where annoying was because a lot of the songs they played where christian songs about how god saved them or whatever, and you couldnt enjoy the park without running into a group of people playing music. you could hear like 5 group's songs muddling together in most spots and it just sounded like a crowded music convention.
Rinoa Super-Genius Okay that sounds annoying.
Intresting thanks for posting.
your welcome.
could be scarier mannequins. don't go to abercrombie and fitch or see the CEO, mike jeffries
fuck that company and fuck that guy.
oh and fuck the "north face" or whatever that is, i keep seeing people wearing jackets with that on it and it looks so fucking stupid.
licon over 9000
who would have thought wool made you itch ^^
hahaha
whare was this at
It's the gmo's that have pesticide genes and animal genes incorporated into them with modern science that the GMO arguments are about...and the cross pollonization after affects...dead bees...dead fields...sick people and animals...great video...Indiana has some museums like that..Conner Prairie is similar
yeah i just think its funny people differentiate between the two, its still us changing the plants. everything we eat has been modified to be better. like bananas for instance, you prolly wouldn't recognize a natural banana.
"gmo" is such a wide field that you can't say "gmo's have pesticide genes" yes some do. but on the same note every plant in existence has ways to defend against enemies. so its just some GMOs have more defense than others.
There are three types. Mutations occurred naturally due to cosmic rays, viruses and chemicals in nature. Selective breeding was then used to create desirable crops.
Then the second way, beginning in in the late 1920's I believe, scientists bombarded huge numbers of seeds with radiation and caustics to generate a large number of random mutations to see what was the result. The surviving plants that appeared to have desirable characteristics were tested and even crossed with other varieties. This method necessitated a tremendous number of failures and time to develop anything useful. Further, since the radiation or caustics might have caused mutations in areas that weren't necessarily desirable in addition to the desirable changes, there may have been not so obvious problems.
The third way, GMOs scientists target and inserts specific genes. This avoids the random chaos and problems created by the radiation and caustics shotgun approach. Most of the stuff today was created by the radiation and caustics method. In fact, during the late 50's and early 60's atomic gardens were set up so members of the public and kids could participate. Look up atomic gardens. Its fascinating and maybe creepy. So while all of those sic-fi/horror movies were being made about radioactive created monsters, the public was involved in the process.
The funny thing as I see it is that the plants created by the GMO process have been rigorously tested while the plants that have mutated naturally have not been tested. So which one should you fear?
what happened Shamrock Shake experiment?
what happened to it is the absence of anything happening to it. setting up an ebay listing and shipping items that need to be frozen is difficult and expencive. i'd prolly lose 50$ on each shake because i would have to make dry ice from scratch.
i might test them and eat them myself though.
OK thanks
