They ended up getting over-run in a matter of days during the Blitzkrieg . . .


Then most of the Polish army resurfaced and beat the crap out of the Nazi's for more than a few days.

' The formations, loyal to the Polish government in exile, were first formed in France and its Middle East territories following the defeat and occupation of Poland by Germany in September 1939. After the fall of France, the formations were recreated in the United Kingdom. Making one of the largest contributions to the war effort, the Polish military in the West was composed of army, air and naval forces. The Poles soon became shock troops in Allied service. Taking part in the Battle of Monte Cassino on May 18, 1944 and the bugle call of the Polish call-to-arms and the raising of the Polish flag on the ruins of the Abbey was their finest hour.[1] The forces were finally disbanded in 1947, with many former soldiers choosing to remain in exile rather than to return to communist-controlled Poland.'

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

Four weeks and they were practically wiped off of the map. I was making a difference between being over-run and annihilation. :p

Anyway, I really have to go now . . . I'll get back to this later.

Well, we did another lab today in chemistry, and there was delicate equipment involved so after 5 minutes my group decided I wasn't to touch anything, and had to stand several feet back.

I'm quite good. I'm in one of those moods where I'm seeking out laughing at people who get indignant about things on the internet as my primary form of entertainment.

In other words, I am on Tumblr and I'm playing "Find the vegan".

You make or find a Tumblr post that in some way references meat-eating or something else that is likely to attract rabid fundamentalist vegans. You then wait for them to find it and then laugh when they begin reblogging it with indignant commentary.

What.
Why is that in all caps? Is it an acronym? Are we referencing the awful stereotype about guys in fedoras?
