More UNITED than we realize!
Gain all knowledge
Well this doesn't "really" belong in this space I suppose, but at the same time it is to do with "preperation and training", I think this is probably the most appropriate category to put it in.
But anyway, some of you may be interested in these courses
http://www.teach12.com/
They cover things from a scientific and educational perspective. I've learned a lot of the "alternative" interpretations through others such as Gregg Braden, What The Bleep, and The Great Work etc, so I thought it would be a good idea to find out what the scientists are saying themselves, or to at least become aware of the scientific perspective to try and understand more, and at the same time be able to come to my own conclusions. What I have seen so far has been excellent, although the first half of "Particle Physics For Non-Physicists" has been rather slow and not deep enough for my liking because the focus has been on the history and the people rather than getting down to the details of what it all means and how it works.
But they don't come cheap, I wouldn't encourage people to download things, but a lot of them are available on the internet. If you should choose to use that route, then I would suggest that encryption be enabled on your torrent client, because they are tracked and you will be contacted, and possibly banned from your ISP. In addition to that, PeerGuardian is a good little program whether you choose to download some of these or not.
But as I say, I wouldn't encourage that people download things, and in fairness these courses are excellent and are worth the money in my opinion, but be aware of these issues so that you don't get into trouble should you choose to use the free option...
I think that will do as an adequate disclaimer, and I hope the courses will be useful to others ;)

Ah well, it doesn't necessarily mean only this lifetime ;)
"... creation is, at its potential, intelligence in pursuit of understanding itself."
How would you suggest buying as a group? Do you mean on their end like a group discount type thing or buying in bulk, or on our end like all contributing to the cost and then sharing copies? They seem to be a pretty reasonable company so they might be willing to make some sort of a deal, but my bank account isn't overflowing at the moment :)

That is very true Honey - just my library would take me like 5 LOL!
Yes I mean we could see what "we" are interested in and then split it - I am trying to get the decision one on dial up and it is taking forever - but once I have it - can we not all share - or is that BAD!!!!!!
