Probably so, but I was looking at it purely from the economic point.

On the one hand, I don't trust that the recovery is real. On the other hand, I don't trust that fundamentals are going to impact prices anytime soon. So far, my rent hasn't gone through the moon, so at least I have that going for me.

If you wanted to be really gruesome, you could attach different lengths of piano wire to their fingers, toes, feet, hands, elbows etc. so that they flipped off on the way down, leaving only the gushing torso to hit the ground.

Then, you would also have a Realtor body parts piano wire mobile for your dungeon. Jeffrey Dahmer would be proud.

Hey, Isaac Newton was very in to alchemy, or at least so they say.

His excuse was that he was born in an era of ignorant, eye-of-newt-and-toe-of-frog near-total religious obscurantism, and, though he created a new era of understanding the world in terms of actual evidence, he kept one foot planted firmly in the old world.

But then, it is not surprising he was an asshole. He was, after all, a conservative.

I guess Reagan/Bush policies kept working well into Clinton years..

of course when Clinton waltzed in Silicon Valley asking what Big Govt

could do.. the leaders here told him to go fuck himself... Seems there

wasnt anyone who dig what he wanted... Last trip he made to SFBA as

Prez... was strickly going to East Palo Alto schools..

Bottom line, Clinton did a rats ass to stimulate an economic growth.

And who knows, maybe he was a skeptic, doing secret research on behalf of the government to confirm that the popular alchemy scams of the day were false.

(since the value of gold way such a key economic factor at that time - I'm sure the government would gladly hire the best minds to make sure that nobody was going to start making gold. )

Newton also was at one time a member of Parliament and later in charge of the royal mint. So to me the idea that his alchemy research was from a skeptical point of view (government research) makes some sense.

But either way, he was an interesting guy to be sure. Read about his occult theories and interests, and secret societies etc.

Isaac Newton's studies preceded any meaningful advances in Chemistry as we know it today by 100 years. He was delving into the unknown. The man developed Calculus and Classical Mechanics. He also performed some groundbreaking research in optics. I'm pretty sure, the fact that he was testing chemical theory when the subject was still in his infantile stages cannot be held against him.

There was a reason why he won a second term. Those were the good old days.
His only negative was having the hots for an intern, just like every other normal male on the planet.

Zombie Reagan would still be way better then Obama.

What great economic plan did he have ? All of the plans for the recovery came from Bush R. which led to the job booms.

So what what that "reason" ? I bet you dont even know.

You have a point there. A lot of it had to do with Reagan taming inflation.
By the same logic you cannot blame Obama for a bad economy.

Ronald Reagan was not a good president. I thought he was, but he signed into law liar loans that ended up destroying America after he passed away. I often wonder what he would have thought about that result of his actions to Thatcherize America.

It was because of the liar loans I got my first home, when I lied through my teeth. They did not cause the crash of 2008, it was the NINJA loans.
Should I be thanking Reagan to make it possible to get my first home?

I'm well aware of most of the amazing accomplishments of Newton, including those related to pre- chemistry.

But he supposedly had an interest in alchemy. That's what the historians say. I was speculating that his interest might have been a skeptical interest that has been misinterpreted.

He was into the occult and interpreting ancient wisdom that was supposedly encoded in ancient architecture, and the bible, et. Many even today find interesting puzzles in the accomplishments of the ancients, such as in ancient egypt.

Look it up. The guy had some "out there" interests or hobbies or whatever you want to call them.

theoakman says

Actually they had laws against alchemy. And based on the "science" of the time, and Rosecrucian (sp?) rumors about alchemy, which might have simply been manipulation of the idiot public (and government officials), you can be sure that the government had plenty of idiots then, just like now, and that all the talk of alchemy terrified them, even if it was just a 3% chance of being true (in their minds - but higher chance in the minds of idiots, including those within government and or royalty)

Liar loans were part of the NINJA loan complex. You are a typical selfish libertarian type who would play the fiddle while Rome burned.

Alchemy wasn't an "out there" interest. It was a natural scientific curiosity of how the world worked.

Even if you could make gold and other metals with a microwave, the article fails to mention things like how much it costs to "make" an oz of various metals.
