Mason, this is a great thread -- thanks for starting it! Nice to see that ppl from both sides can get along and talk about mutual interests! Too bad you had to ban a few but that's what it takes to make civilization possible, eh? Hence the need for prisons. lol

When you really think about it, it is amazing how one relatively short and surgically-targeted ban list can quarantine about 90 percent of this board's problem with serial liars, mentally ill sociopaths, and degenerate racism.

I like the Wild Kratts. They usually have great lessons in there about animals. Another one that I like that my son watches is called The Octonauts. They teach you all about sea creatures.

I had a course last fall called "Wild Animal Relations" and the prof actually showed an episode of Wild Kratts! It was cute. The point wasn't so much about whatever animals they were featuring, but rather how to instruct children (and adults) to see other beings as "relations" rather than remote beings sharing the same space.

That's right. Thanks. Didn't watch that one either. I thought sci-fi was pretty dumb, until Star Trek came out.

Good morning. You might like the new Lost In Space on Netflix. Only one season so far. Also Manifest is pretty good once you get to know the characters.
 
Books that change your thinking or POV.
For me two books,at 21 ,I read Catch 22,it taught me to assume nothing,question everything!
The other was The Grapes of Wrath,taught me to look at things from the POV of "we",not "I".

I love Steinbeck. That might be a worthy summer activity -- reread some of his classics.

I would recommend it.:) Yes, he can be odd, whiny & grumpy (lol) (as can we all @ times) @ times but IMHO overall he isn't bad & can be easily ignored if need be..

He can also be cool, insightful & informative @ times but I think overall he just wants to play, not all to serious most of the time.

Me 2cents//

I haven't heard from him,and I see he doesn't comprehend the concept of these threads,by his post on Grumpy's Tiki thread.
So it's up to The Committee!

I don't think it's wise. He will go after Jade right out of the gate, and you'll end up annoying the mods to have him escorted out the door. But it's your house so you call the rules!
