Hot Lips Grandma White paint peels from the door, rusty hinges let loose a loud creek. A small gray mouse scurries across the floor, as cockroaches wander around the house. I dread the encounter, puckering, grandma opens her arms. Her musty smell fills my nostrils, there is no escape... grandma's livery lips strike again. Chat gpt's version "Peeling White Door" Beneath the chipping white paint of the door, Rusted hinges groan, echoing through the hall. A nimble gray mouse darts across the creaking floor, While shadows of cockroaches dance on the wall. With trepidation, I step into the embrace, As Grandma opens her arms, her eyes aglow. A scent of old books and lavender fills the space, Inescapable, yet strangely comforting though. Her lips, a vivid red, draw near with a tale, Of years gone by and love that never fails. In this moment, Grandma's affection prevails, A kiss from the past, where warmth never pales. Unnamed I don't want to die, let ...

Who We Are What to Purchase would like to become a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity that has no government affiliations of any kind. Our purpose is to help educate and inform consumers. Our mission statement is: "Organize reasons to agree and disagree with specific purchasing decisions to help consumers use their hard earned money for things that will improve their life. We want to help cut through all the misinformation constantly thrown at consumers from biased TV commercials. Our goal is not to sell magazine, or access to product reviews, by making the reader read multiple articles, and put up with authors who wish they were writing novels: we want to present decision making information quickly and efficiently." We accomplish our mission by researching pros and cons behind specific purchasing decisions, inviting anyone who thinks we have left out a good reason to contribute, and incorporating new information as it comes in.

Reasons to agree : +7 Their is little risk of falling off a trampoline if you have netting. Trampolines are no more dangerous than football. Trampolines are perhaps no more dangerous than swimming pools, but they are much less expensive, and take less maintenance.  Trampolines with netting on the side are not too dangerous.  Kids jump on beds. You can't stop kids from jumping on stuff. Cars are dangerous, and we aren't going to stop driving cars are we? Obviously its not that simple. For instance, cars are more important than trampolines. But it is not required that you drive to unimportant places. Therefore, you can compare the danger and importance of driving to a park to jumping on the trampoline: both are recreational activities with some risk. The question is how much risk? How important is the activity? Obviously, a trampoline derives its importance as a form of recreation, and so you can't answer the question without first asking yourself ho...

http://www.visualroot.com/ Is a cool website... I think it is very important that we map out how one idea is related to another... It is very important that when we strengthen or weaken an assumption, that it automatically strengthen or weaken conclusions based on those assumptions... I am trying to get an open source project going here: http://code.google.com/p/ideastockexchange/ that outlines the reasons to agree or disagree with each conclusion, and lets you use one conclusion as a reason to agree or disagree with another conclusion...  Obviously a conclusion could be a good one, but still not support another conclusion... for instance "the grass is green" is a good conclusion but could not be used very well as a belief to "increase funding for the poor". So I would like to count the number of reasons to agree or disagree with each belief, and then count the number of reasons to agree or disagree with each linkage...  I like cou...

Integrating ethical considerations into the evaluation of conclusions can significantly enhance the validity and acceptability of those conclusions. By allowing individuals to score the ethicality of various methods and results, we can create a framework where ethical considerations are systematically factored into the final assessment of each conclusion. This approach encourages consistency in reasoning and helps identify any logical fallacies or biases in judgment. Using computational tools in this process enables a more objective and quantifiable assessment of ethicality. By assigning scores to philosophical questions or ethical considerations, a computer algorithm can process these inputs to determine the overall validity of conclusions based on both logical and ethical grounds. This methodological rigor ensures that ethicality is not merely a subjective or secondary consideration but a central criterion in the evaluation process. This approach aligns with the broader objective of ...
