Smart people do speak their mind, that's how you get anywhere, and how you get what you want/deserve. It is the stupid who remain silent when all around them take what they like.

RESERVED That's the word I used, if you didn't notice. OK so according to your ideology, smart people should speak of everything they have in mind, even if that thing they are about to say is totally apsurd and stupid. Better go from the source of the word: RESERVE

True. But did you know that Belgrade exsists for over 2000 years now. And Serbian flag didn't change very much more over 1000 years now. Heh while our people lived (and still live :D ) on the Balkans Trash Man, the Americans didn't even exsist. :D

Well to be perfectly honest, we aren't quite good in football. But when it comes to Basketball, Volleyball, Waterpolo etc... we are unstopable.

By the way about Sweden, I heard from some reliable sources that you have great babes there (of course, compared to Norway). That true?

God in his holy boredom, thought that this was blasphemous and used his godly magic powers to make everyone speak in different tongues, thus they couldn't understand eachother while trying to construct the building and got angry and quit.

They are probably a much older civilization than all the ones mentioned here, so they deserve some respect, right? :D

Anyway, on the subject of flags, I always found those three-strip flags a bit boring. I like the more original flags; the Saudi and Sri Lankan ones are good. :yes:

Australian Flag:

what each bit represents:
The Union Jack in the upper hoist quadrant or first quarter (also know as the Canton), denoting Australia's historical links with Great Britain. The Union Jack itself is composed of red and white intersecting and overlayed vertical and diagonal crosses on a blue background,

The Southern Cross in the second quarter (also known as the top or head) and fourth quarter. Consists of five stars in a more or less kite-like pattern - Alpha Crucis (7-point), Beta Crucis (7-point), Gamma Crucis (7-point), Delta Crucis (7-point) and the smaller Epsilon Crucis (5-point). The outer diameter of each of the 4 major stars is 1/7 the width of the fly and the inner diamter is 4/9 outer diamete; the diameter of Epsilon Crucis is 1/12 the width of the fly and the inner diameter is 4/9 the outer diameter. The constellation of the Southern Cross is a significant navigational feature of the southern hemisphere, strongly places Australia geographically and has been associated with the continent since its earliest days,

The Commonwealth Star or Star of Federation, central in the third quarter or lower hoist, has seven points to denote the six states and the combined territories of the Commonwealth. The seventh point was added in 1909. The outer diameter is 3/5 the width of the Union Jack (3/10 the width of the fly) and the inner diameter is 4/9 the outer diameter.

So, where do the monkeys fit in there? :p

The main point of the piece you quoted there was about longevity of civilizations being irrelevant, the monkeys just being an example. Anyway, back to the monkeys, where did you get that definition from? I just checked the webster.com definition and there is nothing about humans at all. It would not make any sense anyway; why do you think they always talk of extraterrestrial civilizations? The main characteristic of a civilization seems to be the writing of records, but what exactly is a written record? If a monkey walks through some mud, he will leave footprints there, which can be taken as a written record of sorts. :D

Anyway, my point is that age does not matter here and no civilization will get any respect just for being old. As Teabag noted earlier, the US and the USSR were some of the newest states around at the time of their domination.

I might have spent more time with you if you had not shown your utter stupidity in all the other arguments around here. Come back when you learn how to put up a real argument. :D

Or how about Indonesia and Monaco? Another case where the flags are either the same thing or have a very slight color difference.

On the Civilizations thing - 13 centuries aint bad, but it's not that special, not in Europe anyway - look at France and Britain - established governments for much longer than thirteen centuries - Greece and Italy also have been civilized for millenia. Then there's Egypt, Most of the Middle East, China and Japan - then there are the "uncivilized" civilizations, some of which for tens of thousands of Years - Australian Aboriginies, American Indians, African Tribes, South American Incas and Aztecs.

That a monkey was there and walked in a certain way? An astute detective might see much more in it. Writing is to "form characters or symbols on a surface with an instrument" and anything can be a symbol, so this certainly qualifies.

You'd be surprised what information can be gleaned from footprints. Studies of Dinosaur trackways have given information about speed, behaviour (It is primarily Trackway evidence that suggests Sauropods travelled in Herds, and, despite the massive size difference, they were hunted by Allosaurs), anatonomy (The coparison between the fopotprint and the foot bones tells us about posture and the way the skin and flesh attatched itself to the foot). I'd assume Monkey footprints could tell us the same sorts of things, people just don't bother as there are living monkeys to study.

Admittedly, it's not knowledge being stored, but it is information...
Title: wEvil goes to the US!!
Post by: Sandwich on May 14, 2003, 02:48:35 am: For the record, your definition of record-keeping is too narrow... record keeping should be defined as the purposeful recording of something, not an accidental footprint in the mud. Dinosaurs did not keep records when they left footprints everywhere. But a socienty out in the next galaxy over that bypasses paper and pen and goes directly to electronic methods of data accumulation would not be considered to be "writing stuff down", literally.

ants and bees are serious challengers to being civilisations. they communicate between them and between hives, which makes for a more elaborte society already ( apes can communicate between individuals, if you can say the fact that screamin after the other coz he's coming too close his called communication ).
