  1. Carrying them is banned(ish), as of a few months ago. But this swords thing is stupid... I haven't heard of many crimes committed with a sword, have you? I have a replica katana thing that I bought on ebay, but it's probably to blunt and bad quality to be classed as a real sword.
  2. Evolution is the way, whether God exists or not. I believe I have made my views on this matter clear many times before.
  3. But the thing is that life isn't an unknown quantity in science... people began to dispell vitalism once Friedrich Woehler first sythesised urea from inorganic components in 1828. For instance, the seemingly autonomous behaviour of an amoeba can be explained by relatively simple rules, such as drifting down concentration gradients towards food sources and the like. This isn't to say that I don't believe in consciousness- I think it is an emergent consequence of complex biological systems.
  4. Yeah, I've taken C1... I got 92. When I said A-level maths was interesting, I didn't mean C1... it starts to get interesting in C3 and 4... unfortunately, you have to do double maths if you want the really interesting stuff, which most people refuse to do outright. Yeah, after having a look I was about to say that it looks like your maths teacher can't be bothered to set real homework.
  5. If you can do your homework so easily, find homework you can't do... it's the only way.
  6. That site looks horrible... all full of popups and the like. I can't even find any maths questions.
  7. I believe he's already graduated. I'm not a stalker...
  8. Keeping up the clock theme, every year by chance I happen to look at my digital clock when it reads: "11:11 11 11.11" (11 minutes and 11 seconds past 11 on the 11th of November).
  9. Nope, the only other person significantly interested is Dabookerman, and he's applying next year, so he hasn't done it yet. Have a look at this though... :wink:
  10. 'tis a pity for all of you... maths actually becomes an interesting subject at A-level. I found all this rubbish boring as well. In my opinion, they should get rid of ladders leaning against walls and put calculus on the GCSE syllabus. Anyway, although I'm doing double maths A-level, I'm not actually doing maths at uni, so I don't swear my undying allegiance to it... though it does run the universe.
  11. You should always rearrange quadratics so that they are equal to 0, then try and factorise. If you can't factorise them, use the formula (or complete the square, which is effectively the same thing).
  12. This program was brilliant... they show old episodes on FTN, and Challenge I believe. I love it when they get locked in the room.
  13. 1. I q = 2p - 5 II q = (p^2) + 10p + 7 2p - 5 = (p^2) + 10p + 7 (equate I and II) Rearrange and solve this quadratic for p, substitute the answer you get into either I or II for q. 2. I y = 4x + 4 II (x^2) + (y^2) = 36 (x^2) + (4x+4)^2 = 36 (substitute I into II) Multiply out and rearrange this, solve the resulting quadratic for x, substitute this value into I or II to find y.
  14. No, because foxes are nocturnal. Is this a question?
  15. I think you'll find that the more rounded or branched they are, the lower the boiling point, as straight chain molecules can stack closer together and thus form stronger intermolecular forces, so more energy is required to break these forces.
  16. Good, someone who agrees with me... who else thinks this?
  17. Yeah, I want a cute girl to bring me food while I stay at home writing eroge as well...
  18. Welcome to the NHK is a brilliant anime about a loser who stays at home and has no life. It's nearly as good as Higurashi, which from me is a massive compliment.
  19. I've just remembered- it reminded me of the league of gentlemen at points. I was half expecting the barman to say "are you local?"...
  20. There is a huge amount left to do, if they're going to to everything. I believe you're on volume 5 of 12.
  21. I saw it today, and I thought it was brilliant... it's also a little bit more serious than Shaun of the Dead, especially at the beginning.
  22. Apparently, the Japanese stereotype of Chinese people is the same as the American sterotype of Japanese people.
