Once upon a time there was a very creative cave man, who decided he loved the way it sounded when he hit a rock with his favorite stick. All the other cave men used to gather around and listen with amazement, but could not emulate his infectious rhythms.. for they had no concept of music at...

I strongly believe that you are looking at how to improve your improvisational skills all wrong. When your talking about theory and study and classes I believe you miss the point of improvisation. What you should be working on to improve this is increasing your brain to hand connection. And...

you mentioned in one of the PG threads you were a musician. We have something in common :) what do you play?

So your justification for doing something that you admit under a microscope is questionable or as you put it "ghastly", is that your paying MONEY? What is it about your money that negates the need for a moral decision? All money is, is monetary status in society. You are equating a large...

I imagine its quite possible that this subject may have already been beat to death... but if your game- how about the legalization of marijuana? I suppose if you find that to be too direct we could debate the legality of drugs in general.. but either way I am prepared to defend the position...

This thread's purpose is to debate the moral implications of the meat industry and its purpose in society. This threads purpose is not to debate the idea of morals overall, or the eating of meat overall. Im sure these sub-topics will come up in the debate , I am only asking as the starter of...

Or perhaps you either didnt explain yourself well enough, or had a lack of pertinent/significant information in your post?

Well all this silly bantering aside... does this thread still have the function that it was originally created for? If so... do we have to pick a subject that has yet to be debated about? I have found some threads on my topic of interest by doing a search but they are all quite old.... so...

The question that immediately arises to me, is if space has the ability of intrinsic expansion, and its agreed in most modern scientific circles that it is indeed finite (which of course is why it would even expand in the first place) ... what is on the other side to begin with... if not space...

Its ok, i believe you ineffectively read mine as well. I wasnt claiming that they haven't had the opportunity to put the behavior into effect... I have stated several times that I believe they have no desire or reason to put it into effect... I am suggesting that its not that another animal is...

Dre, While you have not directly called yourself a part of this intellectual metagame you coined (which by the way, is quantifying intelligence in a way that disgusts me) , it is heavily implied by most of your posts. You are simply stating opinions that are contrasting to mine, and claiming...

Dre, I believe all of the critiques your making of my argument, which is a much larger part of your argument than any factual information or poignant speculation, are reflected in your own debating of this subject and the other as well. I have not claimed that no differences exist in our...

So you fancy yourself an anarchist?

While I still feel quite strongly in favor of my argument, and will continue heavy research in the field, I do not currently possess enough concrete scientific factual knowledge to continue effectively arguing for the case of plant or even animal sentience. Most of the points I have made thus...

I believe this is a flawless argument against my claims. It is undeniable that many have faith for foolish reasons, but faith is not based in logic, its more of an emotion- and i firmly believe that while we should question our impulses- it is wrong to completely ignore an emotion.. there is...
