How to remember the spelling of "definitely"

The root word is "definite". There is no such word as "definate" or "definately".

Get Paid to Drive Well

Start a website where people can register their license plate and "turn in" other drivers doing good things like driving the speed limit, using turn signals, merging correctly and so on.

The site's revenues are then split periodically with the best drivers.

Your identity is separate from the license number, and the site doesn't deal with complaints.

No, you won't make a living from it, but when good habits become a game everybody wins.

"Irreducible Complexity" is the new "I Don't Get It"

Feel free to copy, remix, share, whatever.

When looking into the specific arguments for or against irreducible complexity, keep this in mind:

Every component now present in a watch, an eye or a mousetrap need not be the only ones that were ever there. Picture a building with scaffolding, parts that serve a purpose while the building is under construction. Many years later, how would you reconstruct what sort of scaffolding was around the building, or even that there was any?

The United States is a Christian nation in the way that Earth is a water planet.

Feel free to post and quote. This idea bears repeating. Lest anyone get the wrong idea, allow Nerdacus to set you straight. The U.S. of A. is not a Christian nation, whatever you might be led to think.
From space, yeah, Earth may look like a water planet. It is indeed the majority of the surface. Do you land creatures want whales and krill making all the rules?
