Thanks Cali, I really hope you've managed to save most of your wonderful posts on RD.
This is pretty much the question I had in mind. After all the attempted creotard hackings, it's pretty sad to see the forum disappear like this.

Oh, and I'll make sure we bring a camera !!!

I'd ask him if he wants to build an atheist community then why destroy the largest atheist community on the internet?

And sorry I won't be there to help you out or give you support - I'll be cheering you on from here though!

An Arabian guy at the aeroport:
- Name?
- Ahmed al-Rhazib.
- Sex?
- Three to five times a week.
- No, no… I mean male or female?
- Male, female, sometimes camel.
- Holy cow!
- Yes, cow, sheep, animals in general.
- But isn’t that hostile?
- Horse style, doggy style, any style!
- Oh dear!
- No, no! Deer run too fast.

Damn, I forgot about that one.




You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This woman has to be gotten to a hospital.

A hospital--what is it?

Dr. Rumack: It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now. :funny:

I think it's important that we don't jump to conclusions and attack Richard's character since we don't know how involved he was in the decision regarding RDF.net's death. We seem to gather that Josh is a liar, so Dawkins may know nothing or maybe it was pitched to him in such a way it seemed the new format would be comparable to the old system instead of a complete overhaul. Of course, that could be false too. Perhaps he did know but I personally wouldn't go in there guns drawn. I don't think that'll get you anywhere no matter which scenario is true.
Find me on MySpace, friend me on Facebook, and stalk me on Twitter.
Trigger Warning!!!1! :
Bored, watch this: This was a video posted in sarcasm by the great stijndeloose from RDF.net.

Wow. I've only been here 2 or so days and already killed a thread. My first killed thread. Do I get some kind of reward or something?

Yes, you get the Josh Award. It's simply a plaque that says "We are all very excited about the changes you've made to this thread".

Thanks for all the suggestions. The airplane vid was excellent. :lol:

I guess I could pull a tea-bagger and fly a plane into the Auckland U ..... :ask:

Anyway, after reading Richard's "announcement" on RDF. I'm seriously reconsidering attending the conference.


Mr Samsa, your Josh Award is brilliant.

Is a Josh Award worth 2 Dunsapys?
