Q: Is Tom Bishop a Troll or a genuine FEer?

A: You even mention his name again and I will personally come around to your house and gut you with a rusty spoon then force-feed you your innards.

Q: Should I, an insanely annoying troll, GTFO?
A: Yes.

In all seriousness, a lack of an ice-wall guard.

I suggest removing the reference to the elephants and turtle, the RE noobs can't take a joke.

I suggest stating the Elephant and Turtle as accepted FE mantra.

That'll make 'em get all frothy.

The removal of Chukwa for any reason would be anathema.


I would add: clarify that not all governments or all members of each government are in on the conspiracy.

Also, last semester I wrote a paper on another presocratic, Anaxagoras. His cosmological theory basically consisted of an initial mass, called the Urstoff (later german term, meaning super mass, or initial stuff). This then began rotating, due to "mind", and the heavy material sunk inwards; and the earth was formed.

   He most likely viewed this vortex as disk shaped, therefore the world was disk shaped. In one fragment, he actually discusses the composition of the earth as being rock resting on water.
