You may think that, I may think that..but a few posts back (#38) Benny told me that this wasn't the case. That there's no difference between what he would call an idea and what I might call "something else". His idea of fish, is the collection of forces which might conspire on a liquid water world to produce a creature with fins and scales not dependant on dna - which is completely interchangeable with the material interactions which I don't think -would- do that...but easily could. Environmental pressure on "whatever it is" that they have instead of DNA.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
