Default Yacht Clubs--a mistake

You should reconsider your question!

Mutations are *mutations*. Think about it!


You said...

1. Nuclear radiation is fatal.

2. Solar radiation is probably fatal because it's some kind of radiation as
well.

....and I asked...

How much is 'not likely'?

'Not likely' isn't very precise - how similar are solar and nuclear
radiation in terms of their effects on organisms like humans? You're arguing
by analogy, and I'm trying to determine how valid that analogy is by asking
you to cite a study which compares solar and nuclear radiation.

And you tell me that "mutations are *mutations*".

So, what's your point?

You've had a "logic" breakdown. Perhaps you would like to re-phrase your
question?

radiation in terms of their effects on organisms like humans?


Well, as the sun is powered by a nuclear reaction ...... duh!

We are talking about genetic mutations. Think about it! By definition,
they are random. Why do you think that a "study" would have any bearing on
the subject?


And you tell me that "mutations are *mutations*".


Yes, they are!

Damn tootin' right! I'm off sailing soon - couple of hours cruising,
followed by a round-the-cans no-spinnaker race at the club. We're not
contesting the series, but maybe we can be a joker in the pack for those
that are... ;-)

Enjoy yours, too!

| Pretty basic and the 1st thing I learned when studying the subject.

You didn't learn anything......

I notice that you don't make any points, only state that mine are wrong. I also
notice that you don't seem to know what the study of "plate movement" is
called. I'm sure you'll now look it up.
A bit to late. Me think you're exposed...and quite easily. A poor job, Mooron.
You get a C, but that's mostly pity.
