Well, compulsive liars have painful, embarrasing and mercifully short working conditions. Salary is negotiable but will predictably hover around minimum wage. Why? PD Are you an academic with first hand knowledge then? |

If you are in Google, you can click "show options" and then see "other posts by this author". It is instructive to take a gander over Markie's entire body of work under various pseudonyms (but always the same e-mail). - Randy |

POP wrote: Does that mean that the only people who deserves study and do string theory is only that has enough economic resources? no, it means that if you are really as "brilliant" as you claim, then you should be smart enough to spend 1 year to make a million dollars in the free marketplace, and then use your own money to study string theory. Why should we believe you are smart enough to study string theory if you can't even beat out the little guy to make yourself a million dollars? Basically, if you're so smart, why aren't you rich? It doesn't take but a year to invent something or start a business to make a million dollars if you are smart enough. |

Apart from the question whether string theory is worthless or not ... Mark Demers doesn't understand, at all, that money isn't the measure of everything in the cosmos. He doesn't understand that money is created by people. And that bowing for money is beneath our dignity as a human being. It's already in the first few of the Ten Commandments, as can be read in the bible, Exodus 20:1-17. 3. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: [ ... ] Han de Bruijn |
