Nah.

http://www.patheos.com/Library/Confucianism

Thus even without deities and a vision of salvation, Confucianism plays
much the same role as religion does in other cultural contexts.

Confucius said heaven and the afterlife were beyond human capacity to
understand, and one should therefore concentrate instead on doing the
right thing in this life. The earliest records from his students
indicate that he did not provide many moral precepts; rather he taught
an attitude toward one's fellow humans of respect, particularly respect
for one's parents, teachers, and elders. He also encouraged his students
to learn from everyone they encountered and to honor others' cultural
norms.


(Sadly however...)


Later, his teachings would be translated by authoritarian political
philosophers into strict guidelines, and for much of Chinese history
Confucianism would be associated with an immutable hierarchy of
authority and unquestioning obedience.

Perhaps it's the start of the latest "diet" food trend.

It's also nothing that a person couldn't trick up themselves with
stockpiled dried vegetables, pasta, potatoes, rice, tomato powder,
powdered milk and cheese products, and so forth. You could mix up your
own seasoning or dried sauce mix ahead of time and store that, too, or
make it on an as-needed basis. Honestly, pasta in tomato sauce or
potatoes in a cheese or sour cream sauce is no brain surgery. There's
no reason to pay hundreds of dollars for a bucket of macaroni and some
powdered tomato/herb packets, or a bucket of dried potato slices and
some powdered milk/cheese sauce packets.

Then again, the same can be said for the so-called 'survival' seeds.
Just plain old open-pollinated seeds that can be purchased in bulk for
about one one-hundredth of the price from actual seed companies.

What we need is home irradiation units - one that uses no radioactive materials. We could can our own foods in seconds without pressure cookers. That would be cool.

If I was saving seeds for the apocalypse, it would be heirloom
varieties because I think they'd have the best chance at making it to
harvest.

I cannot say if I was born too soon. I probably woke up too early though.

One could make a lead-lined, air-tight, food storage box that would be very power efficient. You put food in it and when you close the door, it blasts the food with X-rays and shuts off. It won't need any power until you open it up again. Who needs a stinkin' refrigerator?

There's no legal definition of "heirloom seeds", so I'm not sure what
you mean by that. Open pollinated seeds are not hybrids, so they will
breed true from seed kept from year to year. The two basic issues with
such varieties are yield quantity and quality. It generally seems that
if the quality is outstanding, the yield is poor. A lot of the
old-time varieties are very good and good yielders, too, but a lot of
others are not the quality of newer hybrids. People who've never
tasted Golden Bantam sweet corn (one of the original old time sweet
corn varieties) would be in for a shock. Newer varieties are much
sweeter, crisper, better-yielding, and convert their sugar into starch
much more slowly. In short, the sweet corn you are eating now is
nothing at all like your grandparent's sweet corn. - it's a hell of a
lot better.

Probably not - I just like to imagine it that way. A great thing about those places up North is they have ice water coming out of the taps. Amazing! That would never happen over here - too bad.

Take it from me - this is not so great when you're brushing your teeth
first thing in the morning. Same problem with a simple bidet - unless
the water first goes through a nearby on-demand heater, that wash will
leave your nether bits all tingly, and not in a pleasant way, either.

These are most excellent points. I guess every silver cloud has a black
lining - although, if the lining is sable, that could be rather nice.

Depends on what you want. I like the older versions of corn that dont
taste like they've been rolled in sugar. They actually taste like CORN.

I agree. They seem to be popular in Europe but very rare here in the
USA. It's certainly a great idea. I work in many homes and over
40-some years, I rarely see one. Only in a handful of homes owned by
the wealthy here.

IMO, this is one case where we USAins drift to the barbaric side. Or
should I say the barbaric back sides. heheheh

Bidets are definitely not a common feature in the US but it's not as if
most people haven't heard of them.

Also uncommon: urinals. We had a urinal in one bathroom when we lived
in Bangkok. My mother refused to let Dad or my brothers use it for that
purpose. She said, I'm not cleaning that. Use the toilet like everyone
else." LOL She kept a vase of fresh flowers in the urinal.

Interesting. If she had thought more about it, a urinal is much easier
to clean, vs men standing up and peeing in a toilet that's 2 feet away
from the man part. Urinals keep all that pee right in there. Peeing
(while standing up) in a much lower toilet get residual drops on the
rim and the floor.

Even with marksman aim there's splashing. For males the neatest
method is one of those plastic hand held hospital urinals... I keep
one in my car and another at my office phone because occasionally I'm
put on hold and that silly elevator music makes me need to pee and I
never know how long I'll be kept on hold and I refuse to put peeing on
hold for an indeterminate time. Don't you just hate when someone
phones and then needs to put you on hold while they look up your file,
WTF can't they have your file in front of them before they phone? duh
Happened just an hour ago when the mail order pharmacy called, I was
on hold a full ten minutes before she got back to me to say that their
computer was slow. But anyway those plastic urinals come in very
handy, especially when driving on the Interstate and the next rest
stop could be more than fifty miles. In some of those western states
it could be 100 miles between rest stops, even further when driving
across Canada, and sometimes the door is locked and there's a sign
"Out Of Order".

It's a waste of good floor space.

Actually she didn't have to clean it, we had a maid. It was apparently
just the thought of a pee trough that bothered her.

I wouldn't want that in my bathroom either. It's as repugnant as a
bidet or a toilet with the seat left up. If there were his and hers
bathrooms and a maid to clean them, I'd say go for it because I'd
never need to step foot inside the one with a urinal. Otherwise, it
won't happen in any bathroom I use.

A bidet??? I can see you need educated! One doesn't pee in a bidet! It is
the place you wash yourself *after* you have peed!

What? No bidet? So, tell me, how do you clean yourself afterwards? Don't
tell me you don't wash???

No I am not having a go at anyone for not having one, but I will not be
sneered at for having one and having it likened to a toilet!!

The Hawaiians have an unholy obsession with iced beverages. The feeling
I got in the UK was that the people don't give it much consideration.
OTOH, you guys are crazy for warm/hot beverages. We are worlds apart on
this matter.
