    There is also a shrimp that has the most powerful punching action in the world.
    Neither the turtle nor the shrimp are human.

    true, but energy manifests itself the same way...

    do some research into the comparisons of human genetics with other lifeforms... you'll be amazed.

    The extent to which we are genetically simmilar to cows, turtles, shrimp or pigs is entirely unimportant if the portion of their genetic material that gave them horns, claws, a chitinous exo-skeliton or tusks was not mapped into the human genome. You can meditate on the turtle for a thousand years and you still won't grow a shell.

    And I wouldn't be amazed. Because I'm aware of a lot of the research and understand a bit more than you about where the relevance of the data lies.

    So, returning to the original question, did you drop out of kindergarten? Were you homeschooled?

    Even Chimps that are our closest relatives are NOT humans and we only wish we could hit as hard as a chimp !

    Now, mind, considering the difference between chimpanzees and humans the strength difference there MIGHT be based on environmental factors. But the pronounced canine teeth that chimps who haven't had them kicked out by hollywood thugs (trainers) or biomedical researchers are not based on environmental factors... another example of an adaptive advantage based on the 1.2% of genetic material we don't share.

    why am I not surprised that Uki knows so much about,
    shrooms?

    Uki reminds me of the guy from the talk radio show on GTA 4 dedicated to modern medicine. The "hole-istics" guy.

    in laymans terms, mycology is the study of symbiotic relationships between physical manifestations of energies... we just practice the fine art of discernment by identifying mushrooms.

    yes juggler, you would have been here back in 95 when I was posting as Kunglek. then I requested to change to my own name because what the hey.

    Anyway, there are plenty of people here with 10k posts. Just across a few accounts lol.

    I don't wear it as a badge, it just is what it is, so what.

    Back to your juggling now knee jerk or you'll never get good at pulling chi from teh stars with your mystical mushroom powers.

    Kung Fu is good for you.
