It is official: shit hits the plan

June 19, 2008 – 12:14 am

Many people wonder how it is that a first class cunt like Geeklawyer has a harem of hot totty and a bunch of lady stalkers (some of whom are gracious enough to send him their soiled underwear in the post - sweet).
Geeklawyer is not one for deep thinking on anything much except how to milk […]

Liver damage reversible

December 28, 2007 – 10:07 am

Geeklawyer is not alcoholic, nor a binge drinker, as one ex-girlfiend (no not a misspelling) was fond of alleging. He was nonetheless cheered to see liver damage may soon be reversible. He’ll drink to that.

intelligence led to the Universe being as it is

July 3, 2007 – 9:11 pm

Geeklawyer hates to write two physics posts in as many days but this one was so good it had to be offered for your enlightenment. Physicist Paul Davies asserts the superficially bizarre argument that the Universe is at it is because we are in it as observers of it. By being around we affect the […]

Bouncing Universes, big bangs, Intelligent Design, God & Singing Accountants

July 2, 2007 – 4:29 pm

Geeklawyer meant to reply to a comment on Intelligent Design that the Singing Accountant wrote in which he asserted the uncertainty of what went on before the big Bang as basis for maintaining a belief in God. It’s a good issue.
Of course since the Singing Accountant is a Ruthie fan club member it is likely […]

Intelligent Design

June 26, 2007 – 7:19 am

It looks like the lobbying of fundamentalist Christian loonies seeking to import whacko US bogus science has hit the reality rails. The government isn’t buying this crap and thank God for that. Science teaching is in collapse in the UK and Geeklawyer may well be one of the last generations taught science properly by people […]

Now this *would* be worth patenting

June 3, 2007 – 7:35 pm

Scientists in the Netherlands are trying to grow meat in the lab. No messy animals fasted production and, of course, no ethical issues.
The cloggies are taking meat stem cells and stimulating them to reproduce and grow. They then use electrical pulses to make the cells stronger by simulating exercise.
On the matter of ethics Geeklawyer suspects […]

Physics teaching

March 20, 2007 – 11:38 am

The BBC discuss the University of Buckingham’s report on the death throes of physics teaching in England. Geeklawyer is, as some here know, a physicist - he would say an ex-physicist but becoming a physicist is a bit like becoming a Muslim: once indoctrinated you can’t leave. Nor would he wish to: whereas God doesn’t […]

Life starts in space

November 11, 2006 – 4:32 pm

Geeklawyer is intrigued by the discovery of organic chemicals in space. It is, he thinks, self evident that life on Earth is sparked by processes elsewhere. In the past it has been suggested that raw elements have been available and which when subject to electrochemistry on the earth led to amino acids and thereby RNA […]

The weather forecast for Upsilon Andromedae b

October 14, 2006 – 9:03 pm

One day Geeklawyer expects to be able to tune into Radio 4 and hear the weather forecast: “there are warnings of gales in Viking North Utsire South Utsire Forties Cromarty Forth Tyne Dogger Fisher and Upsilon Andromeda b”. Granted Andromedans might not find a terribly specific forecast; it may not help when planning a […]

of robot dogs and the inevitable decline and fall of man

June 23, 2006 – 5:53 pm

In his days as an R&D physicist Geeklawyer knew the boundaries between curiosity and ethics. He never tortured animals, well - except the odd PhD student - but they hardly count, and only rarely did he develop weapons of mass destruction; even then on the strict condition that they would not be used against humanity, […]
