It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

That was really something, C&SD.  Thanks for sharing that.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Pretty. The women who hosts handling class says she's seen at least one on her property.  =)

There is a herd of them around here, outside Seneca Falls.
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

It's the albedo gene. Their genetic makeup is anticipating global warming climate change and increasing their reflectivity.

Yup, that's it.

Or maybe it's the camo gene. Their genetic makeup is anticipating global cooling climate change in order to match the oncoming snowstorms and glaciation.

Yeah, yeah, that's the ticket.

At least they're not turning grey from their volcano gene to match the ash fallout from the oncoming volcanos due to all the rapid heating and cooling of the earth.

I have. There were (are?) estates in Britian where they are very prized. There are also several legends/fairy tales in European traditions about them, like the White Hart.

Also, apperently, you guys are seeing pibald deer, not albinos, which totally lack pigment.
