If I develope a cure for a disease and people steal if from me, should I just be happy people are enjoying my cure?

must..... resist.... obvious... Simpsons quote....

 

 

 

 

ugh... CAN'T.... RESIST!!

 

Marge Simpson: Well, Homer, maybe you can take some consolation in the fact that something you created is making so many people happy. 

Homer Simpson: [sarcastic voice] Ooh, look at me! I'm making people happy! I'm the Magical Man from Happy-Land, in a gumdrop house on Lollipop Lane! 

[walks out, slams the door, then sticks his head back in] 

Homer Simpson: Oh, by the way: I was being sarcastic. 

Marge Simpson: Well, du'uh.

I see kids playing outside in the yard the whole day (in summer), do I have to conclude from this that their parents have no computer in their home, or forbid them to use it? Like, at all?

I never said anything about forbidding them to use them.

Hey, how are computers any different from board games for that matter? If a kid's just lazy and prefers sitting on his ass all day, then hey, no excuse is too bad, isn't it?

I'm lazy and I wouldn't want my son to be lazy like me. That caused me, and still causes me, nothing but trouble.

However, a board game requires two or more people, so why not?

Furthermore,

A couple of fallacies you make in your thesis:

-TV and computers only serve distraction and entertainment, and nothing useful can be gained from them.

Ok, let me correct myself then: computers are useful, of course with a bit of supervision. But TV would not exist at all in my home. I hate TV, I think it's garbage. Oh, sure, there maybe some good shows, but to me it's the medium that's useless, obsolete. They wanna tell me what to watch? Screw them. I watch all my entertainment online, or on Dvd.

So what was my point again... I don't know anymore... :(

 

I'll just get out of the thread, I'm too confused to think lately.

I'd just let kids be kids. Let them play. Let them enjoy a sunny day with other kids. Let them play in the mud.

 You can still go out and play in the grass even when there's a computer in your room. 

seriously? get me a kid, in 2011, and tell him "would you rather stay here and play Mario on your Wii or would you like to go out play in the yard with a ball?" what do you think their answer would be?

Harmy's STAR WARS TRILOGY "Partly Despecialized Edition" HD. !!! These version are now obsolete - Look for Despecialized Editions instead!!!
Time

Harmy, something that just occurred to me. Would pan & scan editions of SW be useful to the reconstruction? I know, you'd have to realign the footage and whatnot, but is that technically possible? Would it be worth a try?
