If you're going to tell someone to use a dictionary so they can learn how to spell, I would expect you to use the correct spelling of "hear" as opposed to "here".

Why couldn't I be around when this closes. I'll just be a bit over 100 and I have plans way beyond that point in time!!! My goal is to be shot by a jealous teenage husband at 110.

Bill, the kids 13 years old, give him a break. Not many 13 year old kids can play a stock market. It's just nice to see someone interested in the future and making valid points.

Also, 'here' is correct as he is referring to a place (ppx website) and not 'hear' which deals with listening. Think before you type, Bill. Also, shouldn't 'billcosby' have a capital 'B' and a capital 'C' and be separated by a space? Learn to spell your name.

Colin, with a capital 'C'

Hey gapper4, Bill is referring to the last sentence of Pgindie's post. And Bill was hammering Pgindie, because Pgindie was ripping another player in another thread on using a dictionary.

Think before you type.

Hey kubie you seem to have the same goals as I do in preferred way to die lol

But seriously what is the big deal about long range investment in science? I have lived 54 years and have seen so many advances and watched as others have stagnated due to lack of investment. Since 1959 we have had the technology to send a manned expedition to the stars* but failed due to financial and political concerns. Just because we might not live to see the fruition of the research, does not mean it should not be done.

* For those interested in how this was to be done look up project Orion and Project Medusa. Which were H-bomb powered proposals for a 0.1 to 0.3 Speed of light engined Space craft.
