I bet he's a really nice person if you met him in real life, as well as being the most clever boy you will be likely to meet, ever. If I wore a hat it would be off to you, d.reammon. Clever, clever boy.

Sorry? I really don't understand. Not as clever as you, you see, clever boy. :D

I would like to see what Josef Parvizi's (male/scientist) actual studies show, rather than what Susan Fisk (female/sociologist) has to say about them.
Wouldn't you say that it's highly likely that Josef Parvizi's actual studies are quite well represented by Susan Fisk? (Given that they are part of the same institute for Gender Studies and his profile page has a link to the article by Fisk http://gender.stanford.edu/people/josef-parvizi

Not to mention that the whole article is about his talk on the subject of dispelling the myth that the "female brain is innately inferior"

"Josef Parvizi, Clayman Institute fellow and assistant professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University Medical Center, argued such statements are beliefs unsubstantiated by neuroscience, or even by basic logic. In a talk given at the Clayman Institute, Parvizi challenged these myths."

Ooh, you big stud. :lol:

I wouldn't draw attention to the under 17's if I were you, though.

Not sure that's how you meant for that statement to come out?

You're not picking up Dr E. Amonn's strategy here, which is to deflect attention away from the substantive points in the article by raising all kinds of irrelevant side issues. :roll:

Quite right The Finn, Dr Eammon likes to show everyone how much cleverer he is than them by following these clever practices in his post. All he is looking for is a bit of attention & recognition, which I think we should all give him, as, after all, he works so hard to get it. C'mon everyone, let him know! Clever boy Dr Eammon! Clever, clever boy!

:D

O.K. Sounds great! I have to verify that the places we shop will accept my EBT card. Does the mall have a Vons?
