It's official - Swami names heir apparent
    #4262635 -

While everyone makes worthwhile contributions to our favorite forum; only one fully captures the "Spirit of Swami" (S.O.S.) without actually emulating me (a must)! I will not list all the Honorable Mentions and Runner-ups as everyone knows who they are and all were considered and also worthy of carrying on the torch. I also know that we have all superseded ego here and that no one will feel slighted.

I hereby name Diploid to carry on as my spiritual successor for the following qualities/reasons:

1. He is a strong and regular presence here.

2. He is scientifically literate.

3. He is persistent in not letting ill-thought out and poorly supported claims stand unchallenged.

4. He is well-versed in the rules of logical debate.

5. He has good wit and humor.

6. He bribed me with "goodies" - er, I mean he offered me "prasad" in the tradition of the East.

Swami - I believe your next line should be...

I would like to add as number 7. He keeps his mind open. :mushroom2:

Are you going somewhere Swami? Or ready to take on a new role? :heart: :mushroom2:

I'd be happy not to think in absolutes if you link me to an example of someone changing their opinion in the middle of a discussion

I heard Swami do it. Not in the middle but after reflection on something Jiggy said. :heart: :mushroom2:

an open mind is a full head that acts like it is empty

Meaning, you collect information and know a lot, but take non of it for granted

Republican Values:

1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

That's a good choice. Diploid is an intelligent poster, and is rather effective at arguing pseudoscience with logic.

So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.

I was gonna bring several loaves of BNB to Burning Man and the next Shroomery Gathering, but because of all the jokes; you people will never get to taste the ambrosiac nature of my home baking. :razz:
