  1. Not cool, "jessica c"...

    Making fun of your elders is like chugging a gallon of ranch dressing... AND THAT'S just plain yucko, bucko!!

    think agin ;)


  2. huh?

  3. When people in white coats try to explain the world it's called science.

    When people in black robes try to explain the world it's called religion.  

    Reality is somewhere in the middle.  

    No driving license, well done that man!  I bet you've had a good life.

    I feel that history is just one thing after another.

  4. did u seriously think anyone would believe this?

    you asked a question 6 days ago saying you were 65 years old. Another one said you were in grade 6. and another said you were 10. do you seriously have nothing better to do with your time then ask retarded ******** questions?

    stop trying to get attention from people you dont and never will know.

    your an immature little kid in grade 6.

    grow the ***** up,

    thats low.

    (p.s. If your going to ask multiple questions each stating you are a different age then the one before, at least make your profile private. Bet you dont know how to do that either, do you?)

  5. Science Definition Here's a couple pages i Googled. Hope it helps! : )

    The word science comes from the Latin "scientia," meaning knowledge.

    How do we define science? According to Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, the definition of science is "knowledge attained through study or practice," or "knowledge covering general truths of the operation of general laws, esp. as obtained and tested through scientific method [and] concerned with the physical world."

    What does that really mean? Science refers to a system of acquiring knowledge. This system uses observation and experimentation to describe and explain natural phenomena. The term science also refers to the organized body of knowledge people have gained using that system. Less formally, the word science often describes any systematic field of study or the knowledge gained from it.

    What is the purpose of science? Perhaps the most general description is that the purpose of science is to produce useful models of reality.

    Most scientific investigations use some form of the scientific method. You can find out more about the scientific method here.

    Science as defined above is sometimes called pure science to differentiate it from applied science, which is the application of research to human needs. Fields of science are commonly classified along two major lines:

       - Natural sciences, the study of the natural world, and

       - Social sciences, the systematic study of human behavior and society.

  6. Sorry, but at your age, why bother.  Just enjoy each day when the sun rises.  

  7. well since you are on the net i'd say go to www.google.com and look it up.  

  8. Google the term science for an explaination.  You're too old to drive if you never learned.  Stay off the road and keep everyone else a little safer.

  9. Your claim not to know science but yet you use a computer. Weird? I think so.

  10. There are many  branches of science that even I don't know, so the best thing to do is to look up certain topics in a Search on google.com or even Wikipedia.com. That's a quick start. If you can do so, get some books on subjects you'd like to know more about and read, read, read.

    As to driving a car, you'd have to check about driving lessons and find out if you are medically in shape to drive, that is, if your vision is up to the standards required. So check it out.

  11. This will pretty much explain science.

  12. Haha you liar! You're not 83....

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

  13. Was that a declarative sentence, or an interrogative one? Do you know what grammar is?

  14. Uh, you're a little kid and you need to get a life.

    IT ISN'T FUNNY.

  15. One: You're 83, supposedly, and you claim to not know science. What does that mean? Science is everywhere around you. It is physically impossible to not 'know' what science is... unless you've literally been living under a rock you're entire life.

    Two: You don't know how drive a car? First of all, at your apparent age, what does it matter if you know how to drive a car or not? It would be safer for someone of your age to stay off the streets anyway. Second, why would you come to a place on the internet asking a question like that? Don't you think it would be easier to ask someone you know personally, like a family member or friend?  

  16. I think it's time to go to the retirement home, Gramps...

  17. I find it completely unrealistic that a person is incapable of driving a car or knowing what science is, yet is still able to operate a computer, the internet, and e-mail.

  18. so why are your running for president?
