What's a trackback? What's a fifth sentence? *Lynsey feels stupid* What??! What’s a meme? What’s a trackback? What’s a fifth sentence?

Lynsey - a meme is a term coined by Richard Dawkins - it's a "cultural gene" - a piece of information like the 5th sentence thing, passed along from brain to brain, altering each person's behaviour so that they pass it on to the next person =) Um if you didn't understand that, type 'meme' into google ;) The actual meme involving the 5th sentence thing is in Ed's blog. The trackback thing is also in Ed's blog, I'm not 100% sure what it is though ;) Pah - the fifth line is much funnier =’) The fifth sentence is just “Unfortunately, few fellows are in this luxurious position.”

Duly updated. You have a livejournal, Lil? Link, please :-) No need to feel stupid, Lynsey. I set up the trackback and didn't know what it was! As Lil said, it's some kind of link to the post on Ed's blog. As for a meme, it's not that common a term yet, though I'd bet it'll become one before too long as understanding of the brain progresses. Sperm counts will lead to an increase in the number of sperm?! Isn't that a vicious circle? If so, sounds a bit painful... Excellent point, Simon! Duly updated.

"You can have it in any colour you want, as long as its black." Argh, now you've go me trying to remember what a black body source is. Arses.

But it emits light of certain wave lengths, and from the wavelength you can work out what it is made of / colour??? I can't remember at all. Isn’t it one that absorbs all light, reflects none.
