Natural Science 301 Guidelines

This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

      This thread hosted my second-best-of-all-time post on the interwebz:

      You are quite correct. Consider, for example, the "quack" operator, defined as follows ...
      s quack t = t

      Note immediately that, by definition:
      s quack duck = duck

      And further, that:
      s quack t = duck -> t = duck

      Providing algebraic rigor to the age-old truism:
      If it quacks like a duck, it's a duck.
      Well, maybe not second best, but surely in the top 10.
