Why can't I get reduced bus-fares as a full-time student? And why are bus fares so expensive anyway? It costs me £4.30 each way if I want to see my grandparents and it's only a half-hour journey.

If there is a pure mace, can you decode it?

Do you have a student card? Does your local bus service have student discounts?

Thinking will a blender...blend, while thinking about how will Arsenal stop conceding so many goals while waiting for the 2nd half of a football match on now.

I should be thinking about IT and parenting as I should be writing a paper on it but I'm actually thinking about how i'd love to play some classic crash bandicoot warped or rayman!..feeling nostalgic

Also thinking how Van Persie is carrying Arsenal at the minute and how happy I was to see Vermaelen back today!!

Speaking of such fiddling, i have been running the Folding at home program from stanford university for about a year.

Do important science with two mouse clicks every day.

I run linux and the program just constantly runs at 100% CPU usage, so it's not really an option. But I salute you, the folding problem is ludicrously hard & needs all the help it can get.

But it's supposed to use all the CPU power that isn't being used

Which is the issue...my computer is 8 years old and lives in a very dusty environment, running it at 100% will shorten the CPU's life. Besides, the processor in this box is fairly poor, doubt it would make much of a difference.

The main reason humanity evolved to be "intelligent" is due to incorrect beliefs.
