Hey,
HONORIFICABILITUDINITATIBUS is the longest word consisting entirely of alternating vowels and consonants.
UNITED  A R A B   E M I R A T E S  is the longest name of a country consisting of alternating vowels and consonants.
The shortest word containing all five vowels exactly once is the six-letter EUN OIA, meaning alertness of mind an will (and also the title of a book by Canadian poet Christian Bok). However, it is not included in any major English dictionary. There are several seven-letter words containing all the vowels, including S E Q UOIA, EUL O G IA, M IAOUED , A D OUL IE, EUC O S IA, EUN O M IA, EUT O P IA, M OIN EAU, and D OUL EIA. The relatively common French word OIS EAU (meaning bird) contains all five vowels, once each.
{ Dialogue contains all vowels}

How about an Icelandic palindrome? "Allar munum ralla."

That's not entirely accurate.  The first written language was cuneiform, developed by the Sumerians c. 3000 BC

The first written language was developed in Greece long before 5000 BC. "GRAMMIKI A"
I don't know how it is called in English.
But it was not an alphabetic language. (like cuneiform)
The first alphabet with the form we now know, in all the common languages, was the one i wrote.
alphabet = the first two letters in Greek alphabet "ALPHA", "BETA"

He said alphabet...but that's really not correct either, the semitic workers of the ancient egyptians used the principles of hieroglyphs to make the first alphabets, which the greeks/latins modeled theirs after in creating theirs...Message Edited by TWGomez on 05-07-2008  07:58 AM

It is called "Linear A" and/or "Linear B", dating from 8th or 9th century BC.
They found caveman "writing" before that though...
Yeah Greek is the ancestor of MOST common alphabetic languages, but since they got their ideas from the Egyptians (and their semetic workers) Greek really only modified and popularized the current "Alpha Beta" form (thanks to the Greeks/Romans ruling the world for sevaral hundred years) :D

Not True. The path was "Linear A" >> "Linear B" >> "First alphabet" (all in Greece)
The "hieroglyphs" was at the same time with "Linear A", from the Egyptians , but it did not developed to an alphabet, (only after the Greek one)

Not sure what "Sometimes a good old book, counts more than millions of bytes" means...
or  "and i had the same opinion with you.
But after a lot of reading......."

No offense at all... we just talking....
" Sometimes a good old book, counts more than millions of bytes. "
What i mean is that many times the online encyclopedias have errors. For many thinks.
They have a huge amount of information, which a book can not have. Although a book is the result of many years work, for good authors, and they are more reliable. Sometimes is the result of their whole life effort.
Note the "good authors", which is very hard to find in nowadays. Of course, I don't mean in science books.
 
As for  "i had the same opinion with you": when i was younger i had been tought that "Alphabets began in ancient Egypt"

Gotchya ;)
 
Well books have errors too, I find more often than encyclopedias, especially wikipedia...Books often inject personal opinion and biases of the writter and can not be "actively" disputed in the context of what was published. The great thing about wikipedia is that those people that have dissenting opinions can post their references in arguement over what was posted, thus making it a level field for all opinions/resources and references. So I tend to beleive wikipedia :D PLUS Wikipedia (and enclopedias in general) get their information from other books...Note the references section of the page I linked...the information was gathered from about 16 different books...
 
None of it seems too hard to beleive to me :D
 
;) The hard thing about history is that it's always changing ;)

TWGomez wrote:The hard thing about history is that it's always changing

TWGomez wrote:

That is why i said "good authors". People who have their lifes deticated in history
 
 
There are many Labview programmers, but only few who really knows what they are doing, when things go difficult.
The same stands for everyrthing. There many books, only a few good authors. Half the job is to find them... the other half to read them..
Specialy history books, many times are written to serve other perposes... not history itself. 
I have done a really big search, and i have many books in my library.
 
I am not trying to persuade you, that is really big discussion... just keep an open mind...  :smileywink:

"Hasta la vista, baby" is a famous line from the movie "Terminator 2" with Arnold Schwazenegger. He played the terminator, model 101 to be specific...So now go re-read the post, it may make more sense...

102 apologies :smileywink: for misunderstanding post :smileywink: due to lack of knowledge :smileysurprised:
Mathan :smileyvery-happy:

to be even more specific it was more like:
"Hasta la vista.......... Baby"
That was a good movie.. Maybe I'll watch again this weekend.. 

Yeah, one series of movies where the sequels are actually worth watching :D
 
Spiderman 2 was good...but 3....what happened?? 
Transporter anyone?? First one was sooooo gooooooooddd....then they went nuts...

I agree... most sequels should never be made..  
And they are often not written by the original authors.
 
Lord of the Rings and The Matrix had excellent sequels... although they were actually more the continuation of the same story..
Terminator 2 was probably my favorite. :)

Lord of the Rings DEFINETELY, they were based off books though, so it made it a bit easier :D
Harry Potter is another example of good sequels, but again, based off books...derned cheaters :P
Then Aliens (sequel of Alien) ROCKED, but then went sour...so sad...That's when they lost James Cameron though...Terminator 3 was made after James Cameron sold the rights to that as well, but it somehow turned out good...
Matrix not so much...they lost some of their edge and creativity with the story, they got a little predictable and cliche'  ...still pretty OK compared to many though....loved the big robots shooting everything down :D
 

loved the big robots shooting everything down :D
Yes, well, big robots shooting everything down is always fun watching, right?

Yes, I beleive it is :D
:smileysilly:

Yeah... I forgot about Alien.   Shame about the last one (Resurection?) which was not as good.
Started watching it a couple of weeks ago, and my wife wasn't impressed about the lunch ;)
It's the DVD with lots of addons, so I'll get her to watch how it was made first LOL!
Yeah.. Harry Potter is good also.  It's better when the whole story exists ahead of time.
What about Rocky?  I'm not a fan.. And the thought of a 60yr old boxer doesn't make sense..

Some of the Rocky's were pretty good. All but 3 & 5.
I watched the last one, and I thought it was pretty decent...
Not much different than when Forman came out of retirement :D  A little bit out there though...he just had to make up for 5 though :P
 
speaking of Aliens....The first AVP was GREAT, watched the second one a few weeks ago...had HIGH hopes, but it stunk...

What?  There was a second AVP?   - why? - 
that's Hollywood for ya.

No... I meant why did they do a second movie of AVP.. I knew what it meant and saw the first one (didn't like it)..

...that's why I put  :smileysad:

Of all the sequal movies, I thought Star Wars had the best sequals by far.  Some were better than the original.  Did it also have the most (original + 5 sequals)?  I thought Episode I was the best of all (the third sequal).

No drunken posting please tbob...
JK :P
Definetely NOT better than the originals, but Episode ! was better than it got credit for...PLUS it had Ray Park which gives it bonus points in my opinion...He plays Snake Eyes in the new GI Joe movie :D I'll see it just for him :D

I liked and still like the original Star Wars trilogy.  
I nearly walked out of the theatre when I saw Jar-Jar Bing (whatever its' name is... Sci-Fi Goofy character). :p

I must be real goofy.  Everybody hated Jar-Jar.  I loved him.  I thought the added comedy was an enjoyable twist to an otherwise serious plot.  I also like to watch Sponge Bob Square Pants.  So you see, I'm really a goof ball, or maybe I'm entering my second childhood.  Probably will enter my third when I'm 70.  Or maybe I never got out of my first.

Maybe that's why I didn't think it was as bad as everyone else did...I like spongebob too :P

LOL!! You guys are funny.. Spongebob...  LOL!  
I still enjoy watching the original 3 movies.  I've seen the remaining chapters and the quality of the story (not the effects) went downhill with each episode.  Lucas should have retired early ;)  
Excellent special effects.  Like the battle with Yoda..  :)   The actors looked like actors and not their characters.. I didn't fell like I was watching a story, it was like watching a play about a story... no... not quite right.  It wasn't that good...  But that's just me..  ;)

Do, or do not.  There is no try.

:D Revenge of the Jedi :D
 

That quote is actually from <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080684/quotes" target="_blank">The Empire Strikes Back</a>.

Yeah... that was my favorite of the three.
It was the one with the ice planet..  And going to the Daboga (sp) system, right?..  With the hollow tree, and pulling his space-craft out of the water (marsh).
That was good.  Was it the one where they visited Lando and Hans got frozen?  I think so..
Time for me to watch it again... I think it's on Spike.. ;)

The Ice Planet (Hoth for future reference) is Empire Strikes Back. Degoba was Empire & Return of the Jedi, but mostly Epire Strikes Back. Luke goes back in Return of the Jedi (Originally named Revenge of the Jedi, hence my last post), but basically just sees Yoda die and leaves "When 900 years old you become, look as good you will not"

"When 900 years old you become, look as good you will not"

"Hmmph?      Hmmph."

Thanks JWG!
Yes..  If we aged to 900 years old, maybe we'd be much short and have pointy ears..  And speak in reverse notation..
Dunno about the green skin :D  just as long as the smell is okay LOL!!  :D

Yep!    Of course, it was episode V, I mistook the title! :smileytongue:graziano

"When living in a swamp, smell as good you will not"

LOL @ TWG :D
 
swamp smelling Jeddi..

What's wrong with the swamp?  I was born and raised in a swamp.  And I didn't need no stinkin' Jedi to pull me out of the swamp.:smileywink:
Joe Labview, I think some of your cousins live the swamps of Louisiana, n'est pa?

Ben oui... 
Ils sont tous dans les bayous..  :)
Sorry cousin,  I wasn't thinking of the bayous..  More of the Daboga - Yoda - swamp..  ;)
