Re: Pause [RAR!]

Hm.

I would assume from the light-switch example using computers would be difficult at best.

Could you read, write and illustrate books? I would assume so.

Re: Wildly Wildly Irrational Minor Habits One May Have

Most of my dreams usually involve well developed telekinesis. When I am dreaming, it feels like I am reassuming a faculty that I had somehow forgotten when I am awake, and I feel comfortable with it. I have a very clear feeling of mental "flexing" that accompanies it, akin to reaching out...

Re: Non Alcoholic beverages of Choice

I'd drink most anything sweet and cold. However... Orange Juice ranks high up there. I prefer it with pulp. I also like grapefruit juice.

Couldn't this also apply without the time machine? The here and now? According to this train of thought, we shouldn't deal with injustices today lest they mysteriously and unpredictably lead to greater ones tomorrow?

Re: [RAR] One Trillion Dollars to spend, with a caveat.

Space Elevators... probably not. Instead, I'll look into coilguns to launch most types of payloads into orbit, with more conventional rockets if I need to launch people into space. (Or maybe just a much longer gun.) The coilgun tech should be still useful out in space by itself as well. Do research ...

Actually... if I remember some comments from TNG right, then yes. I think they're asked to mute down their acting so that aliens can look more alien or some crap like that. Maybe I can find a reference or something on this.
