Learning

Well, i guess its been a while- I have been researching different topics from my 10 potential topics, and I narrowed it down to a few.

First i had picked teleportation, but when i actually went on a hunt for the articles and information about teleportation- it was virtually non-existent. I found a few articles but they were basically about the same research subject (the same experiment). Although Quantum Teleportation is a very fascinating subject to me, the preliminary scientific research for me to do my research on- just isn't there.

So i decided that even though i have already explored this topic, i would go ahead and take my teacher's advice and explore it some more.

Drug legalization

This topic is pretty controversial- and obviously drugs have been around since the rise of civilization (I'm pretty sure Plato and Socrates were tripping out on something...) - so of course its going to be an "Issue" these days. Of course it doesn't have to be an "Issue"- it leans toward the very simple fact that no matter what "Laws" govern, whether it be the laws of physics or the laws of a bi-party democracy gone haywire, people will always be intentionally breaking these laws because of human nature. Having a psychedelic experience with Lysergic Acid Diethylamide is no different a discovery than finding out that the planets of our solar system revolve in an ellipse using math so complicated it would make most people's brains explode. I think the difference is that most people regard drug use as not being a legitimate science like chemistry or biology- but in fact, drug use has been proven in controlled environments to be a huge force for research, experimentation and inspiration.

-Wow you know i just noticed that i am starting to write my paper, so i better just cut it short there.

Drug legalization is pretty beneficial and that is what i intend to prove in my paper.. i really haven't decided whether i want to make it a persuasive paper or an informative paper, usually my style of persuasion leads to pretty good research papers (in the past it has..)..

So based on a lot of different things that i have written in the past this should be more of an exploration deep into the bowels of the cave rather than trying to find the entrance.

Also check out my del.icio.us, i have a lot of links on there that i bookmarked just while drawing up my research plan tonight.

i guessed I am a bit confused as to which drugs you think should be legal?

im thinking the switch from transportation was a good choice.
