Some waterjets use nothing more than water (without abrasives) for cutting, so how does that work if water cannot erode stone on it's own? We have a lot of granite around here that gets eroded by very pure water, again no abrasives required. |

I am currently tutoring a Ph.D student and she will be 40 on completion, a fairly typical age. Two of my previous students were 37 and 35 respectively. Anyway, congrats on managing to stay in your field for your entire career. My preferred career path vanished before I had even completed a Masters. Such is the transitory nature of modern careers! -- Xeno |

A Thai chap I know commenced his Ph.D at age 30. He already had 2 degrees and 2 Masters by then. A permanent student! I started my tertiary education at age 28 after having a prior career in a different field. Two years effective full time at Teachers College followed by a further 10 years at Uni. I was about to undertake another career change at age 48 when I became rather ill and instead saw the end of my working life. Let me assure you, retirement is much better when you can plan it in advance rather than having it thrust upon you. -- Xeno |

I'm still working although the drop in the oil price has severely curtailed projects. I'm finding it difficult to adjust to retirement, as I'm used to working on interesting projects. However, when work does appear, I feel rather annoyed at having to do it. I'm wondering whether to stop cold turkey as professional, software, insurance and accounting fees will eat up all my projected income next year. Graham |

I'm finding it difficult to adjust to retirement, > as I'm used to working on interesting projects. However, when work does Ditto. I was doing curriculum development work and moving into online education. My new career was to have been involved in the setting up of an automotive focused technical college in Thailand. It was in that country where I initially became ill, at my in-laws farm in fact. > appear, I feel rather annoyed at having to do it. I'm wondering whether > to stop cold turkey as professional, software, insurance and accounting > fees will eat up all my projected income next year. > Graham It is hard to stop cold turkey. They say you need to start planning for retirement some 10 years prior to actually pulling the pin! I was just about to enter that phase. Needless to say, my planning simply never happened. Basically, you need to develop a new hobby or three to accommodate an extra 40 hours, or more, per week of leisure time. Typically, 6 months or a year will see you caught up with all those jobs around the house and after that you will find yourself annoying the living bejesus out of your wife. There's another point. If you and your wife have both been working, you will need to get used to "living together" all over again. A work colleague retired the same day I did. His wife retired a couple of years later. He told me it took the better part of 6 months to get used to being under each other's feet. Nowadays they spend half of each year as grey nomads trekking around the country with 4WD and caravan. -- Xeno |

You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the total blue. After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3 years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY MOVING IN WITH YOU? That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2 years. Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away. There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo. And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're manic depressive mixed with habitual liar. Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles. -sw |

George HW Bush is a known evil pedophile, who ran a Congressional Blackmail Child Sex Ring during the 1980s known as “Operation Brownstone and Operation Brownstar”, and later to become known as “The Finders or The Franklin Coverup”. U.S. Vice President George HW Bush would sneak children over to Senator Barney Frank’s condo, known as a “Brownstone” to their famous cocktail parties, where U.S. Congressman and U.S. Senators — some willing and some unwilling participants — got a taste of the “Voodoo Drug” in their drink. To prove a case, you need one that was involved in an operation or a witness or documents; in this case, U.S. Customs documents prove the case without getting anyone still living killed. Inside the (scribd) document below is an article that appeared in US News and World report December 27 1993, entitled “Through a Glass Very Darkly”. This includes cops, spies and a very old investigation — also copies of the U.S. Customs Reports where the names are not blacked out. |

LOL! What that "wise old man" obviously didn't know is that the Himalyas are not done growning. They get higher each year. |

Extending the periodicy of the Universe considerably!! ;-) Besides, it's a legend. Not the objective scientific truth. That's what I always loved about Hinduism, it always leaves room for better explanations of things. Kinda like science! Christianity and so many other religions claim to KNOW the truth, when none really do! Hinduism is kind of self-improving!! At least that's my impression of it. John Kuthe... |
