Y'know one of those things that I really can't stand when watching a show... Stupid f*ck scenes. I hate them. I can't stand idiotic sex onscreen for no reason. If I want to see that, I'll get some porn.

Ren, you're utterly hopeless. I don't think this planet is big enough to hold a second brush as broad as the one you paint with.

But we wouldn't have you be any other way. ;D :Thmbsup:

And I still don't think the presentations made at TED are part of some vast AREA-51 level conspiracy like you seem to think they are. Peace! 8)

@Target - Brill! :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:

You also don't have to have 100% correlation in order for something to be considered statistically valid enough to be accepted as fact.

"It's near enough for beer" as the saying goes. ;D

Ahem...Why don't we take a quick trip down the "conspiracy" rabbit hole with respect to some TED sponsors?

https://www.google.com/#q=pfizer+medical+experiments+children+nigeria+2009

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/pfizer-to-pay-16350m-after-deaths-of-nigerian-children-in-drug-trial-experiment-1663402.html

From the crowd that had gathered at the Kano Infectious Diseases Hospital, 200 sick children were picked. Half were given doses of the experimental Pfizer drug called Trovan and the others were treated with a proven antibiotic from a rival company.

Eleven of the children died and many more, it is alleged, later suffered serious side-effects ranging from organ failure to brain damage. But with meningitis, cholera and measles still raging and crowds still queueing at the fence of the camp, the Pfizer team packed up after two weeks and left.

An 11% mortality rate...

TED is in bed with criminal organizations. Period. There is no debate there.

Well, unless murdering kids in Nigeria is perfectly ok with you... Then I suppose that there's some wiggle room. ;)

If anyone wants to connect a couple dots... I'll leave you with this. (FAIR WARNING - THAT LINK IS EXTREMELY DISTURBING. Really. It's enough to make you sick or bring you to tears. It is, however, unfortunately factual.)

Here's a bucket of sand if anyone wants to bury their head.

Ahem... about the company you keep? TED? Just maybe perhaps?

The companies that sponsor TED are guilty of doing the exact opposite of what is pushed in TED talks. They don't save lives - they take them. Quod erat demonstrandum.

@Ren - it's starting to sound more than a little insulting. I really hope this thread doesn't end up in the basement because of.  :)
