  1. You were the one to find it... but that pesky alzheimers made you forget about it.
  2. It is hard to prove negligence in that case since we don't know the specifics of what happened. The defense used by United Airlines (the other animals didn't die) is a pretty strong defense and would be a counter (to an extent) of Res Ipsa Loquitur. Which from the article is the only claim I can really make for negligence in this case. If each animal was housed in a separate climate controlled area, then the argument would be much stronger.
  3. I don't know if anyone checks this forum often enough, but I need to find a newspaper article about a negligent act that could result in a lawsuit. I don't care where the article is from, as long as it is from September 2012 (yeah, a really narrow time frame, I know). I need to write a short paper about launching a lawsuit over the negligence, so the article needs to have some details of the incident (to prove who did it) and some harm (physical or otherwise). Anything from a car accident, bicycle accident, finding something gross in your food, etc. would work. An unintentional act that causes harm to another. Any links would be appreciated. P.S. I need them by Sunday night (again, a brutal timeframe).
  4. Ok, but the pet dies when inside the pokeball due to being squished/can't breathe. Ok, but after your first sale someone reverse engineers it and sells them for $100 a sabre and makes a profit... oh, they kill you with it after buying it too.
  5. Vampires aren't dead. A zombie would be a better answer, but they are the living dead, so technically alive.
  6. EDIT: I wish I was dead and cannot be revived.
  7. You are assuming that god requires you to follow his religion. There is also the assumption that faith is required for access to heaven, not your mortal actions. Don't forget to include that assumption that we aren't ignorant to our punishment/reward. What good is heaven/hell if we aren't aware of our eternal bliss/damnation? I know Pascal's wager and I'm still an atheist
  8. OK, but you can only maintain that form when you have perfect focus (aka you can't walk or talk or move) Otherwise you will be a formless ooze. I wish to know the winning numbers for the next 20 lotteries.
  9. Wow, so the big conspiracy is that this guy just changed the headers on Pascal's wager. If scientists listen to him then all scientists should believe in God and be religious.
  10. I wish to be extremely handsome
  11. This is not a paradox, it is a strategy that utilizes the fact that random is random . But we claimed that the other God's know his answer, so therefore with that question you could get the two you ask saying yes , or the two you ask saying no, or different answers for each.
  12. One issue is that you don't which (da or ja) means yes and which means no.
  13. This is the same as the old alligator eating the baby riddle.
  14. I'm seeing some braille letters, but they are backwards. Looking only at the browns I'm seeing a left-right mirror of the letters: W (Is an R without the shift), S, N (has the same shape as a Z but different switching), the final could be K L R O W based upon which colours you use and the shift.. There are two types of 'colour' blindness that may be relevant. There is a red-green type and a yellow-blue type. The use of colours and braille both seem to refer to a sort of 'blindness'
  15. I'd look at this in context of a mix between braille and being colour blind.

    I've only played about 4 or so (usually get killed in the first day or so). I'm also really busy since I just got back into the country and am moving soon.
  17. The first paragraph made me think of my first guess. After I posted and re-read it the "shattering visage opaque" made it clear to me. My favourite though (reading after you revealed the answer) is this line: "Robbing for serf from the rich" Very sneaky if it means what I think it does. Good Riddle.
  18. Well, that requires a LOT of work. We would need to know what numbers are possible for the other combinations. Sounds like more work than I want to do. Someone will write a code with all possible combinations of numbers to get it. I see 32 768 combinations of addition and multiplication between the 15 ones. This doesn't include the brackets. Lots of these will be mirror images though and can be discounted.
  19. I assumed that we always had to use the most previous value when determining the next. EDIT: Is it really linear if we aren't forced to use the previous value?
  20. How'd you get from the 5 to the 9 in one move?
  21. Yeah, I can't get better than Phil's. I can tie it if I am allowed to use division.
