Pull cord reposition

[SUNRAY]

Anyway, in terms of the point we've both made, it is certainly true that Sunray was the first one to mention (the concept of) distillation, even though he didn't seem to realise that he had

For heavens sake man you can't even get that right

What can't I get right?

... that raises an interesting, almost semantic, question. Whilst it is Tue that Chemistry and chemists make a lot of use of distillation, I think I would describe is as Physics, rather than Chemistry - although I accept that the two disciples ultyimately converge, anyway.

I thought about that too. In the end I decided that it was Chemistry governing the behaviour of a compound when heated.

Prof. Google suggests I might be wrong. Or at least not entirely right.

What exactly is an MK unscrewable doobries? This kind of heavy duty modding is the perfect excuse for the insurer to not pay when your house burns down.

Insurers won't pay when your house burns down because you changed a pull cord?

Are you OK?

Well, some things can be screwed up that are not intended to be unscrewed... They are tamper proof.

What's the difference between a bottle top and a pregnant wo....

Oh, maybe not.

I think it's very much on the borderline, particularly given ....

As I said, in the final analysis, as when gets down to molecular, atomic or sub-atomic levels, the two disciplines converge, so everything really becomes "Physics". Indeed, if one is of a "deterministic" frame of mind, then everything which happens in the universe, including the behaviour and 'thinking' of human beings, ultimately becomes a matter of particle Physics!

Do determinism and quantum mechanics make happy bedfellows?

As I understand it, not really, since the latter very much deals with 'uncertainty', which is really the antithesis of determinism.
