Bringing it back to topic….
I don’t see what’s so bad about being caught in the rain….esp if w/someone you are sweet on. We all dry. Oop, almost said, "We all dry off." That would be incorrect grammar though.[/quote:1afhzbw6]
I think being caught naked in the rain would suck!!! Even if you’re with the person you truly love.

[/quote:179gyeuo]nah…it’s not that bad..then again when you come from a town near Seattle where it rains all the damn time, you become used to it
now snow on the other hand that’s a problem to be caught in…It’s cold and you don’t want to be naked

i think naked in the snow would kick ass!!!![/quote:2m41dwo7]
correction: being naked in the snow would freeze your ass.
[/quote:2m41dwo7]I’ve basically been naked in snow. Growing up, good friend had sauna. In mid-winter, we’d go sit in sauna until we couldn’t take it any longer, then we’d run outside and jump into 5 or 6 foot piles of powder. Then we’d run back into sauna. So yeah….we were just in bikinis, might as well have been naked.

it was raining yesterday and i was sitting in traffic going 2 miles an hour and this topic popped in my head. whenever i was completely stopped i could see vitrually every raindrop hit the windshield. but when we sped up to even 5 miles an hour the frequency of the raindrops increased exponentially. way too many to count. so if you walk, you’ll stay drier. if you go fast, you’re making yourself more available in more areas to be hit by raindrops. that’s why billy wants to walk with you between the raindrops. not run.

When one brings in wind speed, what really is happening is that the distance one travels in relation to the column of rain changes. If you move at the same speed as the rain, you can travel across country, but you are traveling zero distance through the rain.
I love this question. I have thought about it and worked on understanding it for years on-and-off. The most interesting thing about this problem is that if you pose it to your friends and family, they look at you like you are crazy because the answer is \"obviously\" to run. However, when you begin to point out the subtleties of the problem, they very quickly get a confused look on their faces.
One thing the analysis above does not take into account is wind speed. In November 1973 in Mathematics Magazine, they take wind speed into account and this really shakes the problem up.In summary, if you can run the speed of the wind, you will get the least wet. However, if you can run faster than the wind, do it because you will get less wet.
I hope I summarized the conclusion of that paper correctly . . . it is not as straight forward as one would think.

some pumpkins failed to take time into account. By walking, you’re in the rain for a longer period of time, which would make up for rain drop frequency.
I still don’t understand what’s so bad about being in the rain![/quote:u5rceagh]

What is called the \"Chinese water torture\" was a torture described by Hippolytus de Marsiliis in the 16th century that was supposed to drive its victim insane with the stress of water dripping on a part of the forehead for a very long time. It may also be characterized by the inconsistent pattern of water drips. Supposedly, the desire for the human brain to make a pattern of the timing between the drops will also eventually cause insanity to set in. If the victim did not succumb to the interrogation, the water would eventually penetrate the victim’s skin and brain.[citation needed] This obviously would cause death (but it is unlikely to do, due to the amount of time needed for this to happen).

yeah, i study Russian and Eastern European history and there is some crazy shit there.
and speaking of Russia- Peter the Great, being morbid and weird, had a big ass collection of creepy shit and scary assed torture equipment. its all in some freaky museum that houses his stuff. i saw some slides of whats in it and needless to say it scared the crap out of me. 
those poor bastards- the Streltsy guard. -
Modern times torture (it’s already an old way of torture though): waterboarding. Funny thing is, first I thought it had something to do with surfing, but when it came in the news more often (as being a hobby of the American authorities to have their imprisoned terrorists speak out a confession), I realized it must be some serious shit.
Obama stopped it immediately when he became President, if I ‘m right.

I’m not sure, but I believe so.
What amused me was that the head of the CIA (or someone very high up), a man who would have been trained to withstand torture to very high levels, lasted only about 2 minutes during it.

i love NIN, not as much as sp either, no one as much as sp of course
but i read about the torture thing, they used that on some iraqis i think, but the people had never heard that kind of music before and with it blaring on loop. but i think that still sucks, to use someone’s art like that. trent put his heart into his music just like any artist would. and to use it in that manner is horrible and insulting to the artist, no matter who it is.

All they really sing about is drinking, taking drugs, or having sex with women.[/quote:3t45ivch]
I think I know 1 member here that must like this style of music: Pipoka. As this is exactly how she lives.

ARTHUR! No women for me! MEN ONLY!
And you forgot to mention the dance moves…
Yeah baby, some mushrooms, a cold drink and booty dance !

Shannen’s a dude
[/quote:1b9yios6]
Ermmm… no, I don’t think so. Shannen gets wet (hey, no comments please! I’m just sticking to the subject of this topic, yeah? ) on places where I want to poke her with some of my bodyparts, so I guess technically that makes me the dude. Maybe I should check the biology books again, but that’s what I remember from school days, way back.

but luckily the male dog has been neutered so no puppies. but it’s weird he still wanted to do it. -
