Gawd, wouldn't THAT be a blessing.

Not surprisingly, those who
give the matter any though are pleased to reciprocate in kind.

Think about that sentence for a minute. When it finally dawns on
you that the last two words are as stupid as they are superfluous
you'll have learned a lesson.

Or not, I don't claim to be a GOOD teacher.

Well, you're never going to get any better at it if you don't try. So, go
ahead........teach us why those last two words were stupid and superfluous.

gawd?

I erred. Think about that sentence for a month.

I doubt that you'll learn anything, but then I never claimed
to be a GOOD teacher.

How does the building get its heat/hot water? If there's any kind of
flame
involved, make friends with the building attendant and put them in the
same room
for a day (not too close - just in the same room.) These rooms
generally
have
zero humidity and things dry fairly quickly.

Excellent suggestion. I could put them on top of the dryer when I do my
laundry tomorrow!

Considering the drier's job is to remove the water from clothes and throw
it
into the air, you'll probably find it to be a very humid environment.

Assuming the dryer is ventilated properly, wouldn't the wet air go outside?
Further then, the only real increase in drying capacity of the air outside
the dryer would only come from any excess heat generated from the dryer
affecting the air outside the dryer, no?

Oh brother!

where art thou...

country homereroticism... set to a catchy tune. g odyssey, with the
accent on odd. aplenty of shiny nickels to be had.

recently read the philosophic squaking of a Ph.D. concerning those
stupid matrix films, so i have no doubt the simpsons could be fodder for
several dissertations and a movie. just hope the music is good.

One school seems well on its way:

No ****.

Nevertheless, go ahead and give us your thoughts on why those last two
words were stupid and superfluous. I'm sure everyone here is just
fascinated.

and, yes, they ARE watching.

I won't ask why.......presumably, you had a significant load of bad
karma to work off......I won't ask why.

I'd be much surprised to learn that no one has yet gotten at least a
master's out of "The Simpsons".

Why oh why do you bait me so?

A quick trip through the database leads me to believe that at least nine
such theses have been written. I decline to read them however, most
especially "From Barthes to Bart Simpson", but with the possible exception
of "The Gospel According to Bart."
