Comment on Seaside Music Theater merger dead; theater closing by Katie

Katie — Thu, 09 May 2013 19:46:08 +0000

As a working professional in NYC for Broadway and off-Broadway, I am still to this day broken up that this amazing theatre that created so much progressive and high quality art is closed. I would like to ask if anyone still even cares about this article…. Is there even a mediocre community theatre in Daytona now? Or as naively suggested, ‘a bigger better theatre?’

Nice post Lisa,

ignore those who can’t intelligently debate and instead act like children.

Is it true that earlier this year the legislature voted to cut awards by 20%? That seems like a lot. Some scholarships are funded by state lotteries, which seems like an excellent idea — on a side note, what happens if someone “wins” the big lottery? That doesn’t affect scholarship funding, does it?

Comment on Sentience vs. Sovereignty by sell textbooks

Not to pick on you — your article is cool, you’re obviously highly intelligent, but just one thing: I was with you up until the elephant at the zoo is “neither sovereign or sentient” part. Okay, it’s not sovereign (based on your def. of sovereign), but it is most certainly sentient! Even you yourself said, “…its sentience,” so you know it’s sentient! Something cannot be non-sentient now, and then later decided to be sentient. And I don’t think it’s correct to use the logic that something is, “only sentient if it can declare its sentience … in a human-understandable way,” because sentience is a humanly constructed english word. That’s like saying the word “tree” is an english language construct used by humans, so therefore a “tree” isn’t really a “tree” to other trees, just to humans. If you have time, would you mind clarifying your position (or correcting me?).

I totally agree with the “sentience is awareneness, not necessarily self-awareness” part. Heck, just watching some people walk around town is proof of a lack of self-awareness heh heh. Whether we agree or disagree whether an elephant is “aware” (and thus sentient) or not, it would have been neat to see your article sidestep into whether a computer with highly developed artificial intelligence is sentient or not (a machine can certainly make a declaration of sentience, can’t it?).

Comment on Survey of Biology SI by Michelle

I only go to school at night or online because I have a full-time job. I keep trying to attend SI’s for various classes but they are ALL during daytime hours (and never on Saturdays).

Do you think you’d every consider adding in a supplemental Saturday SI? For those of us who might WANT to do it but can’t?
