^ Agreed. I tried to get a programmer friend of mine to make a sort of puzzle game that helped teach organic chemistry, but neither of us were sure how to proceed before our schedules diverged too radically to coordinate.

Would you care to elaborate more on this puzzle concept?

These data are quite interesting . . . ?

From the BBC:

Incarceration rates in democracies (per 100,000)

United States - 707
Russia - 474


Yes. What wasn't mentioned is that the united states of americunt's incarceration rate is the highest in the world. Americans are their own sorry parody.

Sure. If anyone wants to make this from any influence my post has, I would like to be involved in some capacity, ideally.

Anyway, I was thinking of using some form of bond-line notation or kekule structures. You have colored boxes to note functional groups with a training session, and slowly build on organic reactions with them. Ex. blue ketone group interacts with red Grignard. Show result in some fashion. You could initially show delta charges or something to make it easier, then add in additional functional groups to get confusing, and also put a time limit in. Maybe get some ideas from pre-professional school tests (MCAT, DAT, PCAT, VMAT, etc.) for starter questions.

This a good example of how the police 'spying' on online purchases can be a Good thing, if the policing is done well.

As you were not doing anything untoward, they didn't haul you away to prison.

If you were running a drug factory, they, or the other two where were waiting around the back, would have found you.

You all should be well aware that on line purchases are monitored.

Ebay is a treasure trove of morons. I would also recommend that you READ your Ebay user agreement...
http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/user-agreement.html
"You consent to the disclosure of certain personally identifiable information, as well as listing and order information, by eBay to Pitney Bowes Inc., and by Pitney Bowes Inc. to its affiliates, service providers, and other third parties (such as customs and revenue authorities, as well as other government agencies),

Ebay has its own "watch list", and hands us over wholesale.

Which ones, the sellers or the buyers? For sure the administrators/owners are.

Both!
People selling 10,000 pounds of Natural Bark Dye a week with 100 buyer reviews claiming "beautiful colors, It snowed for days".

Then you have the people buying a shovel, 2 bags of Lye, 100' of rope, ski mask, and a taser.

Ebay almost a moron magnet for both sides.

It can't be true ! I buy loads off ebay !

Oh. I get it now. Doh !

Does this mean i have to send back the M134 minigun as well as the 360,000 rounds of ammo (1 hours' worth) ?

Man, that's going to be a lot in postage, and fkucharlie14 and ammo4uyeah are going to give me negative buyer feedback.
