Laid Back Lounge / Re: what have you never done?
Last post by Tom62 - May 28, 2023, 08:04:07 PMI don't like podcasts. In my whole life, I only managed to listen to one or two of them.
What may sound silly for Americans is that I've never driven a pickup truck. I've also never watched a single episode of Friends, Brewster, the Walking Dead, Lost, Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Black, How I met Your Mother, Grey's Anatomy, Sherlock, Vikings, Prison Break, Suits, House of Cards (and many more).

History / Re: What is history?
Last post by billy rubin - May 28, 2023, 07:25:27 PMa lot of it is certainly no more than that. memorizing ancient politics is what passes for history for lots of people.
but history is also the stories of the development of technology, of the greater understanding of the earth sciences, of biology and mapmaking and food preservation and the invention of the zipper.
im more interested in the deveopment of the steam engine than i am in the affairs of the house of tudor. or windsor.

History / Re: What is history?
Last post by Tank - May 28, 2023, 08:27:12 AMLots of religions are history. They just keep reinventing themselves like Madonna. As long as there are gullible people and others willing to exploit them there will be faith based belief systems because humans like emotional comfort blankets.
