I think reading a book should be a qualification

For sentience? That’s nonsensical.

Why should it stop? Science makes no judgments, it simply follows the evidence. Trees in a forest are not individuals, they are a family of linked root systems which transmit information to one another and work together for the health of one another. Is this not a form of intelligence? Problem solvi...

When I first started studying zoology as a child, and later majoring in it at university for 3 years, I always felt that the 'rules' set forth for animal behavior other than humans seemed off and counterintuitive. The prevailing thinking was that we must not anthropomorphize other animals - and of c...

I’m still watching the film because I took a break to go to early bird dinner - I’m officially a geezer, I don’t eat past 6:30pm - and, I have to reiterate, it must be seen. It’s chilling to realize how deeply disconnected one America is from the other America. I spent some time in the 80s attending...

Oh by the way, the earth is still burning . . . World’s top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5C target Numerous experts said they had been left feeling hopeless, infuriated and scared by the failure of governments to act despite the clear scientific evidence provided. “I thin...

I tend to agree; Brady is a jerk, always has been, and is only out for number one. He played football well and earned his money, but that doesn't make him any less of a jerk. Were his ex-wife and kids there? I don't believe they attended. But Gisele Bundchen is quoted in a Boston.com (free Globe) p...
