SciFi Essay Topics - Any Ideas? Answered

a contest ? where?

Seriously, here is one I find funny: DiHydrogen Monoxide: Ban this deadly substance

haha "DHMO withdrawal means certain death." "major component of acid rain" i wonder how many peopled believed that it was really dangerous and told thier friends about it... im going to start telling everyone the dangers of it.

It IS dangerous, you could drown in it, it can even be poisonous in too large a quantity Go HERE for info on water poisoning...

oh yes i know about all of those and how dangerous it can be. but i meant to the point of it being something completely different and trying to actually get it banned.

Yeah I know, I was kind of pulling your leg, playing along, only in the opposite direction ;-) Dangerous, yes; but necessary, of course. Without water, we wouldn't have life here. I have a printout of that I carry with me in my briefcase for emergencies. ;-)

Ok, so there's this invention (field generating device) called AO, and it acts upon the earths magnetic field altering the Schumann Resonance, (which happens to coincide with Brain Wave Frequencies) and by this influence AO inhibits violent thoughts. World peace follows, a world-famous doctor named Mel discovers the fountain of youth, (which just so happens to be full of pure DiHydrogen Monoxide) and everyone lives happily ever after. This all happens in 2012 just as a nuke war seems imminent. A time traveler told me so. :)

Here's a question to answer: How come almost all "aliens" appear to be humanoid in some fashion ? Is this some sort of pattern ?

Not the ones from Independence Day. They were like squids, with tentacles on their face. Now, Signs, those were humanoid, and for that I dislike it. I don't think aliens, if they are out there, are humanoid. They are most likely a simple kind of life.

In the USA, it is usually illegal for aliens to take human form. Animals are ok though as long as they come by themselves.

Well, of course, in the USA, it is illegal for aliens to stay here with a green card.

The Andromeda galaxy is on a collision course with Earth.
Bush is preparing for Intergalactic War!

Sure, it's the pattern that human beings sense and recognize as beings.

They seem to be the only form that "makes constructive sense", at least to us. Crustacea would have a difficult time building space craft, as would softer bodied animals. Insects, when portrayed as such normally stand upright, and if you watched the early Star Treks, they all spoke perfect English too.

Hehe, Big Feet. I have size 14 shoes, which is 12 in the U.K.

And we all know what having big feet means, don't we?

(big socks!)

Amen to that. I've also heard it as big shoelaces.

Big hands = big gloves.

Oh, how I love euphanisms.
